9、读理解A(2014临沂模拟)The hit movie Notting Hill(诺丁山)begins with a famous scene. Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and spills(洒)orange juice all over her. After the collision(碰撞), Grant repeatedly says, “I am so sorry. I am so sorry. ”His behavior in this scene is very British. If Roberts character was fr
10、om Britain then she would probably apologize repeatedly as welleven if the collision was not her fault. But this doesnt happen in the film, as Roberts is from the US. A report in The Telegraph last week said that three quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the streetreg

We say sorry because historically the new middle class in Britain had to apologize for not being the working class, but also for not really being upper class. Another theory is that we apologize to avoid confron
14、tation(对抗). For example, if you bump into someone, he or she might get angry. To avoid this we instantly say “Sorry! ”True manners are about being considerate, and the modern day obsession(执着)with apologizing shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were. The word has lost some of its
15、meaning. Do you see my point? Sorry, it might just be a British thing. . . 1. The author mentions a scene in the hit movie Notting Hil lat the beginning to.

A. its unnecessary for British people to be so politeB. the obsession with apologizing shows Britons are truly sincereC. Britons should stick to th
18、e traditional use of the word “sorry”D. the change of how British people use “sorry” is because of language development4. What is the main point of the article? A. To explore the best way of saying sorry. B. To introduce Britons overuse of sorry and why. C. To suggest many British people lack tradit
19、ional manners. D. To show how saying sorry has changed over time. BGrowing up on-screen for a decade as Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe has had to deal with typecasting his whole career.
