Computer keyboards can get dirty just like other __21__-touched items such as door knobs and money. But beyond just looking dirty, a filthy(肮脏)keyboard might actually make you sick.
A 2008 study showed that keyboards can be up to five times dirtier than the average toilet seat. How come? Too often, people don’t __22__ to wash their hands after using the restroom or eating at their desks. In the latter case, sticky fingers transfer sauces and crumbs(食物碎屑)onto and between the keys.

Office cleaning __25__ say that keyboards should be unplugged, turned upside down and shaken __26__. By doing so, you can get rid of most of the crumbs.

Following are opinions on the manner (举止) that people in the United States usually expect in various social situations.
Men usually shake hands with each other when they meet for the first time, but shake hands with women only if the woman extends her hand first. Women do not usually shake hands with each other.
After the first meeting, shaking hands is unusual. However, if someone offers his or her hand by chance, one is expected to shake it. In general, people in the United States avoid (避免) physical touch with each other, since physical touch often suggests sexual attraction or attack.
Although, it has been noted, first names are used more often in the United States than elsewhere, this practice is generally accepted by the rules of etiquette(礼仪). Thus, while it is proper for the foreign student to address people of about his or her own age and status(身份) by their first name, the student would be expected to use “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, “Miss” or “Ms.” and the person’s last name in addressing to another person who is clearly older than the student. (On the other hand, the old person will probably address the student by his or her first name from the beginning.) If the other person being addressed has a title such as “Doctor” or “Dean”, the student should use that title and last name. For example, Doctor Edward Kennedy would be addressed as “Doctor Kennedy”. Any faculty (全体教员) member can be addressed as “Professor”, no matter whether he or she holds the rank (头衔) of Assistant (辅助的) Professor, Associate (副的) Professor, or full Professor. Equally acceptable are “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, etc.
43. Men won’t shake hands with women until the woman ________.
A. says “Yes” B. extends her hand first C. allows to D. was once met
44. According to the passage, it is not common that women shake hands ________.
A. with children B. with the same sex (性别) C. with old people D. with man
45. If the man you meet for the second time wants to shake hands with you, you just________.
A. tell him that it s not good for men to shake hands again
B. refuse his hand-shaking
C. smile but then refuse
D. take his hand
46. If your classmate’s name is John Smith, it is better for you to call him ________ .
A. John B. Smith C. Mr. Smith D. Mr. John Smith
47. The underlined (划线的) word “address” in the passage most probably means ________ .
A. write a letter to
B. speak to
C. ask somebody to give his address
D. write the address on the envelope

A. Americans use first name more often than people in any other country.
B. You use Mr. or Mrs. and the last name in addressing a person who is older than you.
C. You can call Professor Edward Kennedy Mr. Kennedy.
D. It’s impolite for older people to call young people by their first names.

A. shaking hands

When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from discipline (纪律) of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to be 50 , he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to 51 if he wants to live comfortably.
