26、"How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other. But "How are you?" is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks "How are you?" hopes to hear the answer "Fine", even if the person's friend isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine" isn't really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying "Hello" or "Hi".

Sometimes, people don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?", the other person might think, "No, I disagree. I think you're wrong..."But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say "I'm not sure." It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.

People don't say exactly what they are thinking when they want to finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says "I've to go now." Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: "Someone's at the door." "Something is burning on the stove. "The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don't say exactly what they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it's part of the game of language.

【1】When a person in America asks "How are you?", he or she wants to hear" ________ "

A．How are you? B．Hello.

C．I don't know. D．Fine.

【2】When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say"_________ "

A．You are wrong. I disagree. B．I'm not sure.

C．I'm sure I disagree. D．I don’t agree with you.

【3】A polite way to finish a talk is to say"__________"

A．You have to go now.

B．I want to hang up.

C．I have to go now.

D．I don't want to talk any more.

【4】 When a person says "I've got to go now. Someone's at the door.", the person may be_______.

A．giving an excuse

B．hurting someone's feelings

C．talking to a person at the door

D．going to another place

【5】The rule of the game of language is probably____________ .

A．"Always say what you mean"

B．"Don't disagree with people."

C．"Never say exactly what you're thinking."

A one-legged Chinese athlete at the World Orsay Pro beauty contest(世界奥赛专业健美大赛) caught people’s attention. Gui Yuna, the 36-year-old Chinese woman from Nanning, Guangxi Province, showed her best form and won the titles of Miss Qipao and Miss Bikini.

Gui lost her right leg at the age of seven in a car crash. At the age of 17, she started training in high jump and long jump for amputees(被截肢者).

One of the highlights of her professional career as an athlete was in the 2004 Summer Paralympic Games(残奥会) in Greece, where she won the seventh place in women’s long jump.

She won the National Model Worker award in 2015 as well.

Gui retired from professional sports in 2017, and then went to Yancheng to start a business. She now owns her own brand for decorative paints.

Invited by the World Orsay Pro organizer Hua Bo, Gui attended the beauty contest in a hurry and without much training. But her habit of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and exercising helped her keep a good physical shape and shine on stage.

“Sports gives me confidence, and makes me look younger than my peers. I hope more and more people can gain confidence from my action and join the fitness career,” Gui told CGTN.
