One sure way you can tell how quickly a new idea, for example, the idea of "privatization,

" is taking hold among the population is to monitor how fast the word or words expressing that particular idea are passing into common usage. Professional opinions of whether or not words can indeed be said to have passed into common usage are available from dictionary editors, who are vitally concerned with this question. The method described above for determining how quickly a new idea is taking hold relies on which one of the following assumptions?

A.Dictionary editors are not professionally interested in words that are only rarely used.

B.Dictionary editors have exact numerical criteria for telling when a word has passed into common usage.

C.For a new idea to take hold, dictionary editors have to include the relevant word or words in their dictionaries.

D.As a word passes into common usage, its meaning does not undergo any severe distortions in the process.

E.Words denoting new ideas tend to be used before the ideas denoted are understood.

听力原文:When I first started running my own business I made some dreadful mistakes in the
way I handled staIf. The worst thing you can do is stick to one strategy and apply it to every situation. Sometimes you just need to show 'em who's boss; other times some gentle persuasion is more effective - in my opinion, anyway. I'm sure I was often criticised for my management style. - not that I let it bother me, though.

One study shows that Americans prefer to answer with a brief "Yes", "No", "Sure", or the v
ery popular "Yeah" rather than with a longer reply. (76) But brief replies do not mean Americans are impolite or unfriendly to some extent. Very often, Americans are in a hurry and may greet you with a single word "Hi", indeed; this is a greeting you will hear again and again during your stay in the United States. It is used by everyone, regardless of rank, age or occupation. However, those who are accustomed to longer greetings may require a little more time before they feel comfortable with American simple talk.

Americans sometimes use plain talk when they are uncomfortable. (77) If people praise them or thank them in an especially polite way, they may become uncomfortable and not know what to say in reply. They don't want to be impolite or rude, you can be sure that they liked what was said about them. Except for certain holidays, such as Christmas, Americans don't usually give gifts. Thus, you will find Americans embarrassed as they accept gifts, especially if they have nothing to give in return. They are generally a warm but informal people.

The fact that Americans like shorter answers tells us ______.

A.they reply very quickly in a hurry

B.they choose words too carefully

C.they like replying briefly

D.they want to be as polite as they can
