How to talk to someone

new (P5)

Cloze

If you meet a young woman for the first time, will you call her “Miss” or “Ms”? Or will you just use her first name?

You may not know how to use titles (头衔)

1 talking to someone. Don’t worry. Nowadays, the Western media (媒体) uses titles less and less. The US reporter Jason Gay says titles 2 be a tricky (棘手的) thing. For example, a 3 on a Manchester United (曼联) soccer game could read like this: “Mr Giggs passed to Mr Fletcher. Mr Fletcher found Mr Rooney on the right, Mr Rooney then scored (进球)!” Tricky, right?

But what should you, as 4 English learner, do when addressing (称呼) someone? If you’re 5 to someone of the same age, then first names are fine. However, if someone has a title, such as Doctor or Professor, call him or her by title and last name.

1. A. when B. if C. after D. until

3. A. news B. show C. report D. game

4. A. the B. / C. a D. an

5. A. saying B. talking C. telling D. meeting
