When the musical sound rings you, you immediately reach for your pocket ready to have a chat. But although you probably use it all the time, have you ever stopped to think about the manners related to talking on the phone? If you haven’t, here are some tips to guide you.

●Always give the person you are calling plenty of time to get to the phone before you hang up. If the person who answers is not the one you want，give your name and ask if you may speak to the person you want.

●Think about the time you call people. Try not to call too early in the morning(before about 9:00)or too late at night(after about 9:30). Also try not to call at mealtimes.

●If you go by plane to visit your relatives at Christmas, remember to follow airline instructions. Cell phones must be turned off as soon as the plane doors are closed and remain so until the doors open again on arrival.

●When face to face with someone, do not talk on the phone. It is rude to be on the phone when a waiter is trying to take your order in a restaurant, or when you are returning the shoes you have just been trying on in a shop. Finish any face-to-face business before taking a call. Continuing to use the phone while nodding to the person in front of you is quite impolite.

●When in a restaurant with your friends，keep phone conversations short. Make a call only if it is important. Practise speaking in a low voice. If no one looks your way, you’ve got it.

●If you go to a theatre, a concert or a cinema, consider the other people around you. Check that your phone is “off” before you enter. If you are expecting a very important call, put your phone on “vibrate”(振动)and run for the exit as soon as you feel it. If you forget both “off” and “vibrate” and your phone rings, don’t answer it, turn it off straight away.

36. Which is true according to the passage above?

A. You may call people anytime as you like.

B. You may talk loudly on the phone at dinner in the restaurant.

C. You may keep on talking on the phone while greeting somebody.

D. You may call people as soon as you get on the plane，but not after the doors are closed.

37. We may infer from these tips that__________.

A. some people don’t pay much attention to manners while making cell phone calls

B. you may ask to leave a message unless the person you are calling is in

C. calling people too early or too late in the morning is not polite

D. almost everyone has got a cell phone

38. What does the underlined sentence “…you’ve got it” mean in the passage?

A. You have succeeded in making a call without disturbing others.

B. You have made the phone call brief and interesting.

C. You’ve got the message you are waiting for.

D. You have made a phone call secretly．

39. From the tips given above, we can decide the writer is sure to share the opinion that______.

A. 1ike the saying “clothes make a man”, nowadays cell phones make a man

B. as the old saying goes, money talks; nowadays cell phones talk

C. the way we use the cell phones tells what we are like

D. we are what cell phones we use

Like a growing number of young women in Vietnam’s northern part city of Haiphong, Pham Thi Hue was infected with HIV by her husband, one of the town’s many drug users. But instead of being shamed into silence, as Vietnamese with HIV and AIDS are, the 25-year-old tailor and mother of one went public, appearing on television and at conferences. Her business suffered and her neighbors insulted (辱骂)her, but Hue has now become the public face of Mothers and Wives, an HIV/ AIDS support group established in Haiphong by a Norwegian nongovernmental organization and her neighborhood’s People’s Committee. Last year, she founded a smaller group named after a local flower. People who need advice on treatment or help preparing bodies for burial can dial a hot line and get assistance from able and sympathetic(同情的)HIV victims. “We gather to support each other,” Hue says. “When we are sick, what we need most is encouragement and comfort from people who understand our situation and are willing to share our happiness, as well as our sadness.”

On a hot and damp night last month, Hue welcomed into her small home a very thin woman, also a tailor, who was HIV positive. The woman tearfully told Hue that she had not told anyone about her condition, fearing that she would lose customers and that her daughter would be insulted at school. Hue became the wise elder, offering medical and personal advice.

40. What did Pham Thi Hue do after she was infected with HIV?

A. She kept silent

B. She worked as usual

C. She stayed at home and cried every day.

D. She went public and gave help to others.

41. It can be inferred from the passage that the group Pham Thi Hue founded is made up of____.

A. drug users B. HIV victims

C. all kinds of patients D. poor people

42. From the passage we can learn that Pham Thi Hue is a woman who is_______.

A. weak and kind B. foolish and idle
