Everybody may have seen the film "Death on the Nile (尼罗河) ," but nobody can imagine that the writer of the story, Agatha Christie, saved a baby in a most unusual way.

In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Deleville. Doctors there were unable to find out the cause of her illness, so she was sent to a famous hospital in London, where there were many excellent doctors. The baby was so seriously iii that a team of doctors hurried to examine her without any delay. The doctors, too, were puzzled by the baby's illness, and they also became discouraged. Just then a nurse asked to speak to them.

"I think the baby is suffering from thallium (铊) poisoning," said the nurse~ "A few days ago, I read a story 'A Pale Horse' written by Agatha Christie. Someone uses thallium poison, and all the symptoms (症状) are written in the book. They are exactly the same as the baby's."

"You're very good at observing things, "said a doctor, "and you may be right. We'll carry out some tests and find out whether the cause is thallium poisoning or not."

The tests proved that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium. Once they knew that cause, the doctors were able to give her correct treatment. The baby soon got well and was sent back to Deleville. A week later it was reported that the poison might have come from an insecticide (杀虫剂) used in Deleville.

The baby was sent to a hospital in London because ______.

A.her parents were living in London then

B.the hospitals in Deleville were full at that time

C.she was the daughter of a famous doctor in London

D.doctors in Deleville were not sure about the cause of her illness

In the U S, people like waiting for a table than sitting with people they don't know. This
means a hostess may not seat a small group even if a large one is available. If you are sitting at a table with people you don't know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking first if it will disturb them.

At American restaurants and coffee shops, you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill (免费再加).

Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and business times for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. In large cities, especially, stores may be open 24 hours a day.

Servings (上的饭菜量) in restaurants are often large, too large for many people. If you can't finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a "doggie bag" (“狗食袋”,即打包袋儿). It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you're taking the food for yourself,

Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have "Sunday dinner". This is an especially big noon meal.

Tips are not usually added to the cheek. They are not included in the price of the meal. A tip of about 15% is often expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.

Which statement is true?

A.American people like sitting with people they don't know.

B.Hostess always seat a small group at a large table.

C.American people never sit with people they don't know.

D.American people would not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.

Though it is a mere I to 3 percent of the population, the upper class possesses at least 2
5 percent of the nation's wealth. This class has two segments: upper-upper and lower-upper. Basically, the upper-upper class is the "old rich"--families that have been wealthy for several generations--an aristocracy of birth and wealth. Their names are in the Social Register, a listing of acceptable members of high society. A few are known across the nation, such as the Rockefellers, Roosevelts, and Vanderbilts. Most are not visible to the public. They live in grand seclusion, drawing their income from the investment of their inherited wealth. In contrast, the lower-upper class is the "new rich". Although they may be wealthier than some of the old rich, the new rich have hustled to make their money like everybody else beneath their class. Thus their prestige is generally lower than that of the old rich, who have not found it necessary to lift a finger to make their money, and who tend to thumb their noses at the new rich.

However its wealth is acquired, the upper class is very, very rich. Thy have enough money and leisure time to cultivate an interest in the arts and to collect rare books, paintings, and sculpture. They generally live in exclusive areas, belong to exclusive social clubs, rub elbows with each other, and marry their own kind—all of which keeps them so aloof from the masses that they have been called out-of-sight class (Fussel, 1983). More than any other class, they tend to be conscious of being members of a class. They also command an enormous amount of power and influence here and aboard, as they hold many top government positions, run the Council on Foreign Relations, and control multinational corporations. Their actions affect the lives of millions.
