Riches and Romance from Frante's Wine Harvest
September is harvest time. And with bunches of grapes swinging (摇摆) in the wind, the vineyards of southern France are getting ready to celebrate it.
The yearly wine festival is held in honour of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine. It's a fun time with parties, music, dancing, big meals and, of course, lots of wine.
French wine-making began more than 2,500 years ago. The world's oldest type of vine grows in France and always produces a good quality wine. Today France produces one-fifth of the world's wine, and some of the most famous varieties.
The top wine-producing areas are Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Loire Valley. Champagne, a drink used in celebrations, is named after the place where sparkling (有气泡的) wine was first produced in 1700.
Wine is made from the juice of freshly picked grapes. It is the sugars that turn into alcohol.
Traditionally, people used to take off their shoes and crush the grapes with their bare feet to bring out the juice. Nowadays, this practice is usually carried out by machines.
Each wine producing region has its own character, based on its type of grapes and soil.
The taste of wine changes with time. Until 1850, all French champagne was sweet. Now, both wine and champagne taste slightly bitter.
The drink has always been linked with riches, romance and nobleness. Yet the French think of it in more ordinary terms.
They believe it makes daily living easier, less hurried and with fewer problems.
"All its links are with times when people are at their best; with relaxation, happiness, long slow meals and the free flow of ideas," wrote wine expert Hugh Johnson.
French people celebrate the grape harvest every September.

Dining Custom
Every land has its own dining custom, and the United States is no exception. Americans feel that the first role of being a polite guest is to be on time. Ifa person is invited to dinner at 6:30, the hostess expects him to be there at 6:30 or not more than a few minutes after. Because she usually does her own cooking, she times the meal so that the coffee and meat will be at their best at the time she asks the guest to come. If he is late, the food will not be so good, and the hostess will be disappointed.
When the guest can not come on time, he calls his host or hostess on the telephone, gives the reason,and tells at what time he thinks he can come.
As guests continue to arrive, the men in the group stand when a woman enters and remain standing until she found a chair. A man always rises when he is being introduced to a woman. A woman does not rise when she is being introduced either to a man or a woman unless the woman is much older.
When the guests sit down at a dinner table, it is customary for the men to help the ladies by pushing their chairs under them.
Even an American may be confused by the number of knives, forks, and spoons besides his plate when he sits down to a formal dinner. The rule is simple, however: use them in the order in which they lie, beginning from the outside, or watch the hostess and do what she does. The small fork on the outside on the left is for salad, which is often served with the soup. The spoon on butter spreader, on a small bread-and-butter plate at the left. As the bread is passed, each guest puts his piece on the bread-and-butter plate.

参考答案
1.B。题干：作为一个移民国家，美国并没有属于自己的饮食习惯。利用题干关键词可以定位到文章第一段的第一句话，可知每个国家都有自己的饮食风俗，美国也不例外，故选择B。
2.A。题干：女主人计算时间做饭，以便当客人在预期的时间里到达时可以享受到最可口的咖啡和饭菜。答案查找的相关线索词为：on time(准时)和coffee and meat(咖啡和肉)。先在第一段的第二句中找到on time，并在该段的第四句发现coffee and meat，两者信息相符，故选择A。
3.B。题干：当一个女士被介绍给一个年长的男士时，她通常站起来。相关线索词为woman(女士)和an agedgentleman(一个年长的.男士)。先在第二段的最后一句中找到woman和old(aged的近义词)。而该句说的是“年长的女士”这种情况，而不是年长的男士，说法不正确，故选择B。
4.C。题干：按照习俗，在餐桌上男人应为女人安排座位。相关线索词arrange chairs for ladies(为女士安排座位)或该短语的同义短语/句子。原文中没提到该动作，故选C。
5.A。题干：在美国的正式宴席上，盘子旁边的刀、叉子和调羹按一定的顺序摆放。答案查找的相关线索词为：knives，forks and spoons(刀、叉子和调羹)。相关信息在第三段的第一句，说“原则是按照它们摆放的顺序使用”，所以刀、叉子和调羹是有摆放顺序的。故选A。
6.B。题干意思为“在正式的美国宴席上，盘子旁边的刀、叉子和调羹的使用顺序是从左到右”。这道题与前一题相关，在前一题我们已发现了涉及刀、叉子和调羹摆放顺序的句子，而该句说“从外到里”，所以应是从右到左，而不是从左到右。故选B。
7.C。题干：在正式的美国宴席上，面包通常和色拉、汤一块儿吃。答案查找的相关线索词为：bread和soup。在原文第三段的第四句中发现“色拉和汤一块儿吃”的说法，但并没提到面包，故选C。
