(Q =" Question;" A = Answer)
Situation I
Q: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theater, is it rude to move?
A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that close sitter doesn't realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren't the first person he's met who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.
Situation II
Q: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?
A: Consider frequency and urgency. Is this a one-time or an emergency? If so, you don't have to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.
Situation III
Q: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?
A: No. Try other means.1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down. 2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(动作)and smile. 3) Put on earphones and ignore him.
Situation IV
Q: If I remember my friend's birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?
A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented. "Happy belated birthday!" is short for: "Well, I know I forgot, but then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday."
Situation V
Q: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond(回复) to it?
A: Don't lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly good lie when the truth will serve? "Yes," you can say if ever asked, "I saw it." No explanation is needed as to why you don't respond.

题目分析:文章就日常生活中长出现的礼貌问题进行提问,然后通过问答的方式一一做了解答。
小题1:细节题:根据situation I里面的回答内容的第二句Chances are that close sitter doesn't realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance.里面的单词annoyance:可知在戏院如果一个人坐的离你太近,你会生气的。选D
小题2:细节题:根据situation III里面的回答内容的第一个建议:1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down.在公共场所可以故意地看着一个人这样让他安静下来,所以选B
小题3:猜词题:根据situation IV里面的Q里面的内容子:If I remember my friend's birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?可知这里讲的是如果朋友生日过去了才想起,再说生日快乐,说明这个生日是被耽误了,belated的意思是delayed“延误的”,所以选D
小题4:主旨题:根据全文内容,可知文章通过问答的方式就一些现代生活中常见的礼貌的方式做了解答,所以选A。
