四、(2023·南京市联合体期末)完形填空。
Hi, everyone! Today I am talking about table manners. Table manners are all the 1 we should follow when we are eating with other people.
My parents told me not to put too much food in my mouth, 2 they told me not to put the knife in my mouth or lick it. This is about safety as well as manners. I hate it when people talk with food in their mouths. There is one thing I hate even more. It’s when people 3 about the food they are eating while they are still eating it.
The next important rule is that if you don’t eat something, then you need to tell the host. Don’t wait until you arrive, or everyone might have an 4 time. If you forget to tell the host beforehand, then you need to eat what you are given.
It’s okay if you do not want tea, coffee or another drink that is 5. But don’t turn your cup over or put your hand over the top. Just tell whoever is serving that you do not want it.
An important rule is that if you cannot 6 something, you should ask for it. So we often have to pass food and plates around. They should be passed around the table to the right. If you are passed something that you do not want, then you should 7 passing it on. Don’t just put it down.
Plates should be taken away only when 8 at the table has finished eating. You should put your knife and fork together pointing up from the bottom of the plate. Then everyone knows you have finished.
Take care not to leave a meal too early. That looks as if you only came for the meal and not the 9. One thing that happens all too often is that people forget to say “thank you”. Make sure you 10 your host when you leave. Also send a text or an email after the meal. A handwritten thank - you note will show you really have manners!

答案：四 1. B 2. A
3. D 【解析】根据前句“There is one thing I hate even more.”可推知，此处指作者更讨厌人们边吃边抱怨食物。complain 意为“抱怨”，符合语境。
4. D 【解析】根据空前的“Don't wait until you arrive”及“or”可知，客人在到达后才告诉主人自己有忌口，那么大家都会感到不舒服(uncomfortable)。
5. A 6. B 7. A
8. C 【解析】根据后句“You should put your knife and fork together pointing up from the bottom of the plate.”可知，自己吃完饭后可以先把刀叉放在盘子底部而不拿走，由此可推知，只有当餐桌上的每个人(everyone)都吃完了，盘子才能被收走。

大家好！今天我要谈谈餐桌礼仪。餐桌礼仪是我们和别人一起用餐时应该遵守的所有规则。
我的父母告诉我不要往嘴里塞太多食物，并且他们还告诉我不要把刀放进嘴里或者舔刀。这既关乎安全，也关乎礼仪。我讨厌人们嘴里含着食物说话。还有一件我更讨厌的事，就是人们在还在吃东西的时候就抱怨他们吃的食物。
下一个重要的规则是，如果你不吃某样东西，你需要告诉主人。不要等到你到了（餐桌旁）才说，否则每个人可能都会有一段不舒服的时光。如果你事先忘了告诉主人，那么你就得吃给你的食物。
如果你不想要别人提供的茶、咖啡或者其他饮品，这没什么。但不要把你的杯子倒扣或者用手盖住杯口。只要告诉上菜的人你不想要就行。
一个重要的规则是，如果你够不着某样东西，你应该要求（别人递给你）。所以我们经常得把食物和盘子传来传去。它们应该沿着桌子向右边传递。如果你接到了某样你不想要的东西，那么你应该继续把它传下去。不要就把它放下。
只有当餐桌上的每个人都吃完了，盘子才应该被收走。你应该把你的刀叉放在一起，从盘子底部朝上摆放。这样每个人就知道你吃完了。
注意不要过早离席。那样看起来就好像你只是为了这顿饭而来，而不是为了这个活动（聚会等）。一件经常发生的事是人们忘了说“谢谢”。你离开的时候一定要感谢主人。饭后也发一条短信或者一封电子邮件。一封手写的感谢信会表明你真的很有礼貌！
