__5__， there is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, once __6__， makes the offender immediately the object of __7__.

　　One of the few things we can say about the British with certainty is that a British takes a(n)__8__ to the discussion of their weather and that, if given a chance, he will talk about it __9__. Some people argue that it is because the British weather __10__ follows forecast and thus becomes a source of interest to everyone. This may be so. Certainly a British cannot have much __11__ in the weathermen, whose predictions, in many cases, __12__ to be wrong! The man in the street seems to be as accurate—or as inaccurate—as the weathermen in his __13__.

　　Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references __14__ weather that the British make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are __15__ by comments on the weather. “Nice day, isn't it？”“Beautiful day！” may well be heard instead of “Good morning, how are you？”__16__ the foreigner may consider this exaggerated (夸大的) and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his __17__. If he wants to start a conversation with a British but is __18__ to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a(n) __19__ subject to which a response may well be __20__ of even the most reserved of the British.
