People often greet each other with “Hello” or “Hi”. Other forms of greeting are “Good morning”, “Good afternoon”, or “Good evening”according to different times of the day.

Passage 2

Most people want to work, but it has become more difficult in today’s world to find work for everybody. The economies(经济) of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not possible, and so more people are out of work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work of many people in a short time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holiday. In all of the countries of the world, machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work of forty people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.

Passage 3

As there are so many nationalities(民族) in America, people can find almost any kind of restaurants in most of the large cities. The

telephone book lists restaurants for each city according to the name, area(地区) of the city, or kind of food. Restaurants in large cities vary greatly in price. Many restaurants put up their menus(菜单) on the window so you can have some idea of the price and kind of food before you enter. If you cannot find the menu on the window, and you are not sure about how expensive the place is, ask to see a menu before you sit down at a table, or just ask about the price. Appearances from the outside can be misleading(误导) – what looks like a small, informal restaurant may really be very expensive, and what looks like a large, expensive restaurant may be very reasonable(价格合理的).

You can get a meal for about $4 or $5 or a little more if you eat in a snack bar(快餐馆) or coffee shop, but in most city restaurants you should expect to pay $8 to $10 a person for dinner, with alcoholic(酒精的) drinks and wine extra(另付). Prices in New York City are even higher.
