(阅读理解)Having returned from her round trip(往返旅程), the angry woman stood outside

(阅读理解)Having returned from her round trip(往返旅程), the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station.“The railway owes me£12,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office.“You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night.So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel.It cost me £12.”

Harry was worried.He remembered selling the woman a return ticket.“Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely.“I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”

The woman and her little girl followed him inside.She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered.There was no sailing on May 22nd.How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day.Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child.“You look sun burnt,” he said to her.“Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”

“Yes,” she answered, shyly.“The beach was lovely.And I can swim too!”

“That’s fine,” said Harry.“My little girl can’t swim a bit yet.Of course, she’s only three…”

“I’m four,” the child said proudly.“I’ll be four and a half.” Harry turned to the mother.“I remember your ticket, Madam,” he said.“But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?”

“Er, well——” the woman looked at the child.“I mean...she hasn’t started school yet.She’s only four.”

“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam.A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs…let me see…£13.50.So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe£1.50.The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”

阅读理解 Passage 1   Manners evolved differently in different cultures. In earlier times there was a tendency for manners to become increasingly formal, and this was often viewed as progress. In the 18th and 19th centuries having good manners was seen as an important part of one’s education and social class, and it was necessary to be taken as a lady or a gentleman to get ahead in the world.   In the 20th and 21st centuries, manners have gradually become more relaxed and informal. The hosting of dinners and other social gatherings are no longer the exclusive privilege of the wealthy elite (精英), and private clubs are being gradually replaced by more open meeting places. So the manners of the salon (沙龙) are gradually combining with the manners of the pub. Clothing is a good indication of the changes in manners, as can be seen in the following examples.   It is surprising that the wearing of hats indoors by males is once again becoming acceptable. Students in North America often wear baseball caps to class. In many countries the wearing of hats indoors by males was once acceptable even in very polite society, but over the years this became considered as a lower-class behavior. and was thus discouraged in both the middle and upper classes. The young people who wear hats indoors do not realize they are actually restarting a very old cultural tradition.   A comparable development for females is the wearing of jeans. Many females now wear jeans on a daily basis, either at home or at work. Some see this as a symbolic declaration that they are now modern women, not girls or ladies. Some girls, like boys, wear baseball caps both indoors and outdoors.   Sneakers and shorts are now acceptable for either males or females in a variety of non-athletic situations. Some companies have rules requiring informal dress such as jeans or sneakers on Fridays (called “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”), and others permit it almost all the time. In these companies, and many others, it is acceptable to call the bosses by their first names. 1 What does the passage mainly talk about?

A、Changes of manners over time.

B、Formal manners in the earlier times.

C、Different manners in different cultures.

D、Development of manners in different classes.
