21、 to”后缺少介词to的宾语，且是指写给谁，是指人，所以可用who引导第一个宾语从句。第二个宾语从句“you are thanking them for”中缺少介词for的宾语，此处是指为了什么感谢他们，所以应用what引导。故选B。11.

72、usually only receive at least $2.13 an hour,and tips make up the difference.As The Wall Street Journal put it:“The American system of tipping holds the promise of great rewards for waiting staff.”So how should you tip if you are in the US?Normally you pay tips as a percentage of the bill.Offering an

73、 extra 15 percent of the bill to the waiter or waitress in a restaurant and to the delivery man or woman is customary and expected.You can offer more for great service and less for poor service.Yet there is an exception.For take-out food,you dont have to provide tips,though some people say that fill

74、ing an order still requires work and time that deserve a little extrabut maybe a little less.Tips are not expected at fast food restaurants,pizza parlors,cafs or ice cream shops either,though a tip jar might be right by the cash register (收银机).Dont feel obligated to throw some money in,but also reme

84、主题句联系起来着眼于全文结构安排，了解文章的重心，就能概括出文章的中心。文章的标题是中心思想最精炼的表达形式，选择的标题意义范围要能涵盖全文，不能太大也不能太小。命题者在出这类题时，常常利用生活常识编造干扰项，把文中的细节当主旨，利用局部信息编造干扰项，编制超出文章范围的标题或不能涵盖文章中心意义的标题来考查考生的理解程度，考生要特别留意。概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词。) 。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中

85、心的。此时，要注意一些转折词，如but, yet, however, although, in spite of, by contrast, on the contrary等。当文章中表示相反的观点时，往往用到这些词。答题时要弄清哪个是作者的观点，排除迷惑性信息，准确归纳主旨大意。DWhat people say is only one aspect of good communication.
