A
Linxi had taken part in a 6-month international student exchange scheme to Britain. When she came back, she wrote an article about the impression of Britain for the school newspaper. The following are parts of her article:
Personal Space
British people like a lot of space around them. They don't like to make physical contact of any kind with strangers and feel very uncomfortable if anyone stands too close to them. One example of the British 'keep their distance' is that people do not often shake hands with one another at all.
Making Polite Request
In making polite requests, British people like to use very indirect language, using the conditional tense and negatives. Amita, an Indian student said: 'British people never got to the point. They go around this way and that way, using twenty words where three would do. It's really hard to communicate with them. David, British High School Official gave his comment: 'Some nationalities do not always seem very polite; 'I want this' or 'I want that', no smiles nor a please nor a thank you'.
Smiling
Some students say that British people smile a lot, compared to many national groups - often for no particular reason. The British smile as a greeting, smile when asking for something, smile on receiving it.
King, a Korean student once said: 'The British are so insincere(不诚恳的). They smile even when they are not happy or pleased to see you. One girl smiled at me every time we passed each other and I thought she really liked me. So I asked her to come out with me and she refused She was leading me on and then turned me down.' Well, she maybe did not realize that she was smiling and probably smiled at everyone. But it is easy to see how this could be misinterpreted by someone in whose culture smiles are used only to express genuine warmth.
But still many students comment that they do not find British people in shops, banks, at reception desks smile enough to make them feel welcome.

What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories don't yet account for? The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about what they are interested in. Computers, on the other hand, don't. _____75_____, computers don't even have interests; there is nothing in particular that they are trying to find out when they read. If a computer _____76_____ is to be a model of story understanding, it should also read for a "purpose".
Of course, people have several goals that do not make ______77____ to attribute to computers1. One might read a restaurant guide in order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to _____78_____ a good place to go for a business lunch. Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches.
However, these physiological and social goals give rise to several intellectual or cognitive goals. A. goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find information about the name of a restaurant which ______79____ the desired type of food, how expensive the restaurant is, the location of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to get information or knowledge, what we are calling____80______ goals. These goals can be held by computers too; a computer might "want" to find out the location of a restaurant, and read a guide in order to do so in the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not arise out of hunger in the case of the computer2, it might well arise out of the "goal" to learn more about restaurants.

D. Answer the question.
He almost didn’t see the old lady stand on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he stopped his car and got out, walked towards her.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe.
He said, “I am here to help you , ma’ma. Why don’t you wait in the car where it is warm? BY the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”
Well, all she had was a flat tire （爆胎）,but for an lady ,that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for the jack and changed the tire. But he had to get dirty, and his hands hurt. As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She was grateful for his help.
Bryan just smiled as he finished the work. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened if he had not stopped. Bryan never thought about being paid. This was not a good job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give the person the assistance he or she needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed home, disappearing into the twilight.
