30、ren as much as Chinese parents( B )Kenjis sister Ann was at the kitchen table. The table was covered with newspapers. Small bowls of paint were spread across the newspapers.

31、ad just started to work on. In one corner was a small and beautiful pink flower. “Im painting fans to sell at the fair on Saturday,” she said.

32、tiful!” “I agree!” Mr. Sato cried. He had just come into the kitchen. “Your work is lovely, Ann!” Ann smiled at her fathers words. “Thanks, Dad,” she said. “I hope other people think so too.”Two days later Kenji and his friend Nick went to the crafts(手工制作) fair. The school gym was filled with rows a

33、nd rows of tables. Each hopeful seller had covered a table with handmade things. There were paintings, jewelry, clay pots and dishes, paperweights, colorful boxes, hats-and much more.It took Kenji and Nick some time to find Ann. She was sitting behind her table. There were only a few fans spread out

34、 in front of her. Kenji looked puzzled. “Where are the rest of your fans?” he asked. “I sold them!” she said. Kenji smiled at her. He picked up a fan to show his friend. “Oh, that fan is very beautiful!” a woman behind him said. “It is pretty, isnt it?” Kenji said, handing it to her. “My sister pain

While Sara felt Betty didnt hold up her end of the conversation, Betty complained to Steve that Sara never gave her a c

38、hance to talk. The problem had to do with expectations about pacing and pausing. Conversation is a turn-taking game. When our habits are similar, theres no problem.

39、ppening with Betty and Sara. It may not be coincidental that Betty, who expected relatively longer pauses between turns, is British, and Sara, who expected relatively shorter pauses, is American.

40、st of the talking when she met a visitor from Finland. And Sara had a hard time cutting in on some speakers from Latin America or Israel.

Thats why slight differences in conversational style-tiny little things like microseconds of pause-can have a great effect on ones life.

Betty was an interrupter. C. Betty did not take her turn. D. Betty paid no attention to Sara.64. According to the passage, w
