"How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But "How are you?" is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't have an answer. The person who asks How are you? expects 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 and ' Hi .
People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish conversations with other people.
For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says I ve got to go now . Often,the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: Someone s at the door. I ve got to put the groceries(食品、雜貨) away." "Something is burning on the stove (爐子)." The excuse might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn ' t want to talk any more, but it isn ' t very polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person's feeling.
Whether they are greeting each other or ending a conversation, people often don t say exactly what they are thinking. It is an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it s all part of the game of languages. 56. People are expected to answer the question "How are you?" with ________
[A] "How are you?"
[B] "Fine."
[C] "Hello."
[D] "I don't feel well today." 57. "How are you?" is an unusual question because it is _________.
[A] hard to answer
[B] used more often than any other question
[C] more friendly than any other question
[D] not treated as a question 58. An impolite way to end a telephone conversation is to say _________
[A] " I ' ve got to put the groceries away. "
[B] "Someone's at the door."
[C] "I want to hang up. "
[D] "Something is burning on the stove. " 59. When a person says, "I 've got to go now" . " Someone ' s at the door" , he
[A] may not be telling the truth
[B] is leaving for another place
[C] hurts the other person ' s feelings
[D] is going to call back later 60. Part of the game of languages is _________

American society does not treat nap(-FBI) friendly. In fact, says David Dinges, a sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. "There's even a prohibition against admitting we need sleep". Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work. To quote a proverb: " Some sleep five hours, nature requires seven, laziness nine and wickedness eleven.
Wrong. The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them. We have to totally change our attitude toward napping", says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University, the godfather of sleep research.
Last year a national commission led by Dement identified an "American sleep debt" which one
member said was as important as the national debt. The commission was concerned about the dangers of sleepness: people causing industrial accidents or falling asleep while driving. This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House. According to recent reports, president Clinton is trying to take a half hour snooze (-JB-SS) every afternoon.
About 60 percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity. We seem to have "a
midafternoon quiet phase" also called "a secondary sleep gate". Sleeping 15 minutes to two hours in the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed. Clearly, we were born to nap. We superstars of snooze don t nap to replace lost shut-eye or to prepare for a night shift. Rather,we 'snack on sleep, whenever, wherever and at whatever time we feel like it. I myself have napped in buses, cars, planes and on boats; on floors and beds; and in libraries, offices and museums.
68. It is coininonly accepted in American society that too much sleep is
[ A ] unreasonable
[Bj criminal
[C] harmful
[D] costly 69. The research done by the Dement commission shows that Americans
[A] don ' t like to take naps

[D] have caused many industrial and traffic accidents 70. The purpose of this article is to ________.
[ A ] warn us of the wickedness of napping
[ B ] explain the danger of sleepiness
[ G ] discuss the side effects of napping
[ D ] convince the reader of the necessity of napping 71. The "American sleep debt" (Line I, Para. 3 )is the result of___
[A] the traditional misconception about sleep
[B] the new sleep policy of the Clinton Administration
[ C ] the rapid development of American industry
[D] the Americans' worry about the danger of sleepness E
