问题     Australians are very direct people and usually【C1】______what they say. When they issue an invitation to somebody they are not just being polite and if that person accepts the invitation, he is expected to【C2】______. In some cultures it is not polite to say no. This is not the case in Australia. And if a person is invited to do something and is unable to do it, a "no" answer 【C3】______be given; otherwise the person who has issued the invitation will be greatly offended.
    Punctuality is also【C4】______when an invitation is accepted. If a person is invited to be at a particular place at a specified time, 【C5】______if there is a meal involved, that person is expected to arrive on time. One of the reasons for this is that western-type Australian food, such as a roast dinner, must be【C6】______and eaten as soon as it is cooked, and if a person arrives late the food will be【C7】______.
    Australians often issue informal invitation. They will give a person their name, address and telephone number and say, ’"Why don’t you come and see me【C8】______when you are free?" This is not just a polite expression, it is a【C9】______invitation and the Australian who has issued the invitation will be disappointed and even offended if that person does not contact them. However, because Australians live in a【C10】______society, they are not always at home and it is always best to telephone them to make sure they will be at home before making a visit.
【C1】
选项 A、express
B、mean
C、imply
D、show
答案B
解析 根据上下文和习惯搭配，此处应选B项mean，mean what they say意为“说话当真”。A项express(表述)、C项imply(意指，暗指)和D项show(显示)均与上下文的意思不符。
