SECTION B PASSAGES
Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.
听力原文: Americans are big tippers. Generally the custom is more common in a large city than in a small town. Customers are expected to give a tip or small amount of money, whenever services are performed. A tip is expected by the porter who carries your baggage, by taxi drivers and by those who serve you in hotels and restaurants. For example, in hotels it is customary to give a tip to the porter who carries your suitcase and shows you to your room. In this case, 50 cents for each bag is satisfactory; in restaurants you generally leave about 15 percent of the bill on the table as a tip for the person who has served you. Tipping became common in England by the middle of the eighteenth century. Because this practice is not suitable to a country without an established serving class, it did not catch on in America until after the Civil War, when the Southern former slave owners suddenly found themselves having to pay the service and when the rich Northern industrialists adopted this Old World practice as a means to show off their fortune. By the mm of the century the custom had been an American one.
Tipping became popular in America ______.
A.in the Independence War
B.after the Civil War
C.by the turn of the century
D.in the 1960s
听力原文: Peter wondered why he didn't have many friends. The reason was he was always taking, never giving.
One day Peter told Bill, "I'd like to give a party on Saturday. I'd like you to come and bring Martha, too."
"Thanks, Peter. We would be happy to come."
"Perhaps you would like to bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together. I'm sure everyone will want you to sing for us."
That was how Peter began to plan his party. Next he asked another friend, Betty, to bring a cake. "You make the best cake in the world, Betty, and I prefer to eat your cake than have one from the bakery."
Peter invited several other friends to come to his party. He did not forget to ask something from each of them. He even asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house. They agreed.
The party was a big success. However, as the guests were leaving they said "thank you" to Bill and Martha for music, Betty for the cake, the Jacksons for the use of the house and to others for their hard work. To Peter they simply said, "Thanks for the invitation."
