　　Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节)

　　第一节　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　The purpose of a small talk is to let both people agree on something.In America，it is necessary for us to master some expressions during a small talk so that we could understand its real meanings and make our small talk better.

　　Now we tell about the expression “down to earth”．As you know，“Down to earth” means being open and honest.It is easy to deal with someone who is down to earth.Such people could be important members of society，but they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important.They do not let their importance “go to their heads”．Someone who lets something go to his head feels he is better than others.He has a “big head”．

　　A person who is filled with his own importance and pride is said to have “his nose in the air”．Often the person who has a big head and his nose in the air has no reason to feel better than others.

　　Americans use another expression that is similar in some ways to down to earth—“both feet on the ground”．Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality.She has what is called “common sense”．She does not allow her dreams to block her understanding of what is real.
