The other day, I happened to meet someone I hadn’t seen for many years. I couldn’t believe the change in him. As a matter of fact, he didn’t even seem like the    person.
When I first knew Bill, back in    , he was one of the most carefree(无忧无虑的) people I had ever    . He was always ready to have a    . He usually went out for beer at three o’clock in the morning or drove 50 miles to see an old    he really liked. Bill and I were in the same class in college, and    was never dull when he was    . With him there was one wild    after another. Sometimes I wonder how we    to study for our exams.
Last week I was in Houston on business, and I ran into Bill in the bar at the hotel.    , I wasn’t even     it was he. Was this short-haired businessman really the same person? I wasn’t really sure until I came near him, but it indeed was Bill. Now he works for a bank. He    most of the evening about his job, his new car and his house. How he had changed! Back when we were in college, the    thing Bill cared about was possessions. Now they seemed to be his main . Although I have changed quite a bit myself, somehow, I never    Bill changing so much. My image of him    the one I had formed    the time when we were college students together.
I suppose it’s    to expect people to remain the same, especially    I have changed so much myself. But I must say that I enjoyed the old Bill much more than the new Bill. Maybe he    the same way about me.

The British love to think of themselves as polite and everyone knows how fond they are of their “pleases"and “thank yous".Even the simplest business such as buying a train ticket requires__65 seven or eight of these.Another __66  of our good manners is the queue.Newcomers to Britain could be forgiven for thinking that queuing rather than football was the__67 national sport.Finally,of course,motorists generally stop at crossings.But does all this mean that the British should consider themselves more polite than their European neighbours?I think not.
Take forms of address (称呼)for example.The average English person__68   he happens to work in a hotel or department store—would rather die than call a stranger “Sir" or“Madam".Yet in some European countries this is the most basic of common address.Our __69 “you" for everyone may appear more democratic,but it means that we are forced to seek out complicated ways to express __70 .I am all for returning to the use of “thee"and “thou"(Thee and thou are oldfashioned poetic words for“you");“you" would be__71  for strangers and professional relationships.
And of course,the English find touching and other shows of friendship truly terrifying.Have you noticed how the British __72  ever touch?Personlly, I find the Latin habit of shaking hands or a friendly kiss quite charming.Try kissing the average English person,and they will either take two steps backwards in horror;or,if their escape is__73  ,you will find your lips touching the back of their head.Now what could be__74 than that ?
65.A.at least          B. at most         C. less than         D. not more than
66.A.signal            B. scene           C. sign              D. sight
67.A.true              B. original       C. superior          D. advanced
68.A.if                B. whether         C. when              D. unless
69.A.universal         B. unique          C. regular           D. normal
70.A.politeness        B. gratitude       C. democracy         D. consideration
71.A.ordered           B. reserved        C. offered           D. stocked
