Narrator
Listen to part of a conversation between a student and a professor.
Mary Hi, Professor.
Professor Hi, Mary. What can I do for you?
Mary Ur... in class you talked about the advice on customs and protocol in many countries. I am still puzzled by the way people do things here in America. Um...for example, what should we say to the bereaved?
Professor You need not to say too many words, be solemn and respectful most of the time. A hug is all that is needed.
Mary How should one sit correctly at the table?
Professor The basic rule is to be natural, keep your posture straight and never rest your elbows on the table before or during dinner.
Mary Then, how should we set the table if we have guests?
Professor Centerpieces should be low so as not to interrupt the line of sight of the guests. The table should be set according to the style of food you’re serving and the degree of formality.
Mary Well, what precautions should be kept in mind when we pay a social call?
Professor You should be sensitive to the routines of your friends so that your visit does not become an imposition.
Mary How do we say good-bye?
Professor When we say good-bye, be brief and natural.
Mary Why is it important to be punctual?
Professor The lack of punctuality implies that we do not have consideration for other people’s time and displays selfish behavior. If you arrive late to a dinner, it can be a great inconvenience for your host.
Mary What are the usual practices for giving and receiving presents?
Professor Giving a present is a sign of affection, gratitude, or friendship. The present should be unique yet appropriate and should fall within your financial means. A distinction should be made between the gifts we give to friends and those we give to professional colleagues.
Mary How do you converse properly?
Professor When talking to someone, you should look at him or her straight in the eyes. Speak in a language that will be understood by everyone present. Remember: a good conversationalist is one that makes those around him feel comfortable and eager to engage in conversation.
Mary [Leaving]
Oh, I think I’m clear on that now. Thank you. Bye!
Professor My pleasure! Bye!

解析
本题仍为细节题。题目问:关于收受礼物,下列哪一选项的说法正确?解答本题的关键句为:“Giving a present is a sign of affection,gratitude,or friendship.The present should beunique yet appropriate and should fall within your financial means.A distinction should be madebetween the gifts we give to friends and those we give to professional colleagues(送人礼物是为了表达感情、谢意或表示友好。礼物应该独特、合适且要考虑到你的经济承受能力。送给朋友的礼物与送给同事的礼物要有所不同)”,因此,正确答案为选项B(送人礼物是为了表达感情、谢意或表示友好)。选项A(价格低廉的礼物要送给下属,而价格昂贵的要送给上级)、选项C(送给朋友的礼物和送给同事的礼物要一样)和选项D(礼物越贵越表达敬意)均不符合文章内容,因此不予选择。
