Le Invitation: The first duty of the guest is to respond to the invitation within 48 hours. And no, the guest may not ask to bring a guest because the hostess has chosen her own—and where they will be seated.
Le Gift: Flowers sent in advance are the preferred gift. They may also be sent afterwards with a thank-you note. It is considered very bad form to arrive with a gift or flowers in hand, therefore forcing the hostess to deal with finding a vase when she is too busy to do that. Though the French love wine, you must never bring a bottle to a dinner party. Why, it’s as if you feared your hosts would not have enough wine on hand, and that’s an insult(凌辱). You may, however, offer a box of chocolates which the hostess will pass after dinner with coffee.
Le Arrival: If an invitation is for eight o’ clock, the considerate guest arrives at 8:15. Guests who arrive exactly on time or ---how terrible!---early, are mere thoughtless lout(鄉(xiāng)巴佬)who are not giving the hostess those last minutes she needs to deal with details. The “correct” guest arrives between 15 to 20 minutes after the hour because dinner will be served exactly 30 minutes past the time on the invitation.
Le Table Manner: Don’t eat your bread before main course or hostess will fear you are ruining your appetite for what’s to come. And don’t pick up and pass the salt when asked. That’s right. Don’t, it’s considered bad luck. And you must eat everything you take from the serving dish lest you insult the hostess’ food. Also, the French abhor waste.
1.In which country, when you go to a dinner party , you are expected to do as what are required in the text_________.
A.America B.England C.France D.Spanish
2.You’d better not pick up and pass the salt when asked.Because _________.
A.it’s considered impolite
B.people believe it can bring bad fortune
C.it will destroy the dinner.
D.you should ask the hostess’ permission before you do it.
3.The underlined word “abhor” in the last paragraph can be replaced by ______.
A.hate B.ignore C.a(chǎn)dmire D.a(chǎn)dvocate
4.Which of the following is true?
A.The “correct” guest arrives between 15 to 20 minutes before the time on the invitation.
B.Flowers are the preferred gift.
C.A box of chocolates or a bottle of wine are good gifts.
D.It’s better for the guest not to bring another guest to attend the party.

【2011·四川雅安市三診】C
Le whiff, an inhaler(吸入劑) that allows chocolate lovers to meet their needs whenever they please without putting on weight, is to be on market in British stores The invention, called the world’s first breathable food, lets consumers suck in the taste of chocolate or coffee while taking on less than one calorie, Its makers claim it will enable dieters to enjoy their favorite snacks without worrying about their waistline.
The lip – stick – style tube contains hundreds of milligrams of tiny food particles(粒子) which are small enough to be carried by air, but too large to enter the lungs. Each Le Whif contains enough flavor for about eight to ten whiffs(一陣氣味) and costs $1.99 on its own, or $4.99 for a pack of three. The inhaler is available in chocolate as well as coffee flavor.
It was invented by Prof. David Edwards. He said Le Whif was not designed to replace food but could be used to increase dining experiences, such as allowing people to try a variety of dishes from restaurant menus before ordering their meal.
He said, “In terms of living on whiffing, we aren’t even close to being there. But there clearly has been a revolution over the last few years where we are eating smaller amounts of food more frequently, and choosing food its aesthetic(審美的) pleasure. We will be launching new whiffing experiences probably every six months. It is reasonable to predict that the next line of whiffing products will be even more health centered.”
The product came onto market in Paris in 2009 and the first production run of 25,000 inhalers were sold out within a month. It has since been made available across France and in the US. In Britain Le Whif is to be sold firstly in House of Fraser for a month, after which it could become more widely distributed.

50.What’s the main purpose of inventing Le Whif?
