When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day! ” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well. “Have a nice day. Next! ” This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone elses is the managements attempt to increase business.  The expression is one of those behaviors that helps people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we dont know what to say. “Oh, you just had a tooth taken out? Im terribly sorry, but have a nice day. ”The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you dont know has tried to be nice to you. Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, its nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really dont care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like. 【语篇概述】本文介绍了“Have a nice day”这句话在生活中的广泛应用。24. How does the author understand Maxies words? A. Maxie really wishes the author a good day. B. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author. C. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy. D.

Research among computer users suggests that the traditional expression of gratitude has fallen by the wayside. Almost half of those polled said they now use “cheers” more often than “thank you”. Four out of ten said “thank you” sounded too formalso they used catchier, chattier words such as “fab”, “lovely” or “wicked”. A third said they would often just resort to(采取) a quick wave instead of saying “thank you”. And 77 percent said that any of the words used to say thanks were irrelevant, believing a pleasant gesture works just as well. The poll of 3, 000 people was carried out by the online gift store Me to Yo
