Many people even wear special clothes for dinner. So if you are asked out to dinner, you must find out whether you are expected to wear a formal suit. You would feel upset if, when you got there, you were the only person in ordinary clothes.Dinner is generally served at about half past seven. All the members of the family sit down together and are on their best behavior. The guest of honor will sit on the right of the lady of the house. There are two schools of thought as to the seating of the hostess. One is that she sits at the foot of the table but this may mess up the man-woman-man setting order. The other way is for the guest of honor to sit at the foot and the hostess to sit on his right. The wife of the guest of honor will sit on the right of the host. This is subject to change according to the wishes of your employer.During the meal when conversation is carried on, you should try to get into conversation with the person on your right or left, but you should not try to talk to someone who is a long way from you.Don’t forget to drop your hosts a thank-you note or make a brief phone call.36.

In October, two students were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14-year-old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Dasucah, Kentucky.Most of the expulsions, 56 percent, were from high schools, which have students from about age 13. 34 percent were from junior high schools and 9 percent were from elementary schools, the report said.48.

Freedom means the supremacy (至高无上) of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose....53.

Certainly, an over-optimistic (过分乐观的) anticipation of property price has led to blind investment in some places. But that’s an isolated phenomenon. It does not tell the whole story.Some would argue the current supply of houses outweighs the demand, as the country’s idle housing space has reached 100 million square meters. But can we inferfrom this figure that the real estate sector is overheated?Let’s pause and consider. Suppose 20 percent of urban households want to improve their living conditions and each of them expect to enlarge their houses by 20 square meters. With both figures underestimated, there would be 2.7 million urban households wanting to buy larger houses and 540 million square meters of properties should be available in total.The calculation is by no means unrealistic. You can feel that the huge demand is real from your daily contacts with friends. Now my question is: Do we have idle space of 540 million square meters?Suppose further that commodity (日用品) prices would rise as a result of overheated investment. But have we witnessed a rise in the prices of bricks, tiles or stones? No. China’s overall price level has just inched up by 0.3 percent. It does not indicate inflation (通货膨胀).Suppose again that an overheated real estate sector has siphoned (吸取) too much capital from other sectors of the economy. But have we witnessed a shortage of funds in other sectors? No. Have we witnessed a real interest rate higher than the nominal one? No. This is the biggest difference between the real estate today and that in the early 1990s.56. What is discussed in the passage? (In English)57. According to the passage, what is the author’s opinion to the real estate? (In English)58. What does the underlined word “idle”in the second paragraph mean in Chinese?59. 把第一段的划线部分变成一个含有定语从句的句子。
