Bright red post boxes, the Queen and queuing—what do they all have in common? They are all important parts of British life. At least I thought so.

However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed to be a traditional characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done for British bank Barclays.

Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During World War II, everyone had to queue up to receive their daily supply of foods. In fact, if you didn't stand up and wait in line with all the others, it was seen as uncivilized(不文明的)．

The famous English double?decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help explain why queuing was seen as a part of British line. Almost always, there is a queue to get on.

But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed past by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one entrance to their houses, which explains their more relaxed attitude to the queue.

Two minutes is now the longest time most British people are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer prepared to queue?

“Used to buying without delay, customers are even giving up purchases rather than wait their turn，” says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard. “Shoppers are also less likely to queue for long if the item they are buying is of low value.”

Perhaps I will have to replace “queuing” with “impatience” in my list of things I relate to the British.

1.What can we learn about the tradition of queuing in Britain?

A. It was a product of the slow pace of life.

B. It was a long time tradition as old as the Queen.

C. It was considered a symbol of a civilized behavior.

D. It has made the British different from other Europeans.

2.According to the passage, the British gradually stopped queuing because___.

A. they prefer shopping online

B. they follow the example of foreigners

C. British buses have more than one entrance

D. the Internet has changed their way of life

3.It can be learned from the text that________.

A. the British get impatient with queuing for long

B. the British have to queue to receive food

C. the British like to eat in foreign restaurants

D. the British prefer to take double?decker buses

4.The author's main purpose of writing the passage is______.

A．to tell us the influence of the Internet on the British ways of life

B．to compare the cultural difference between Britain and other countries

C．to talk about the changes in the attitude to queuing in Britain

D．to report his research on the British ways of life

"Do you like my dress?" she asked a passing stranger. "My mommy made it just for me." She said with tears in her eyes.

"I think it’s very pretty, but why are you crying?"

With a quiver（顫抖）in her voice the girl answered "After Mommy made me this dress she had to go to the heaven（天堂）Finally the woman realized what the child meant. She gently held the child in her arms and together they cried for the mommy that was gone.

Then suddenly the little girl stopped crying, stepped back and began to sing. She sang so softly that it was almost a whisper. It was the sweetest sound the woman had ever heard almost like the song of a very small bird.

After the child stopped singing she explained to the lady: "My mommy used that song to me before she went away, and she made me promise to sing it whenever I started crying and it would make me stop."

"See," she said, "it did, and now my eyes are dry!"

As the woman turned to go, the little girl grabbed her sleeve（袖子）. "Madam, can you stay just a minute? I want to show you something."

"Of course", she answered.

Pointing to a spot on her dress, she said: "Right here is where my mommy kissed my dress and here," pointing to another spot, "and here is another kiss, and here, and here. Mommy said that she put all those kisses so that I would have her kisses for everything that made me cry."

Then the lady realized that she wasn't just looking at a dress, no, she was looking at a mother...who knew that she was going away and would not be there to kiss away the hurt that she knew her daughter would get. So she took all the love she had for her beautiful little girl and put them into this dress that her child now so proudly wore.
