Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative(保守) person who is 41 only among those with whom he is acquainted. When a stranger is present, he often seems nervous, 42 embarrassed. You have to take a commuter train (通勤车) any morning or evening to 43 the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or 44 off in a corner; hardly anybody talks, since to do so would be considered quite offensive(冒犯的).
45 , there is a unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, once 46 , makes the offender immediately the object of 47 .
One of the new things we can say about the British with certainty is that a British takes a(n) 48 to the discussion of their weather and that, if given a chance, he will talk about it 49 . Some people argue that it is because the British weather 50 follows forecast and thus becomes a source of interest to everyone. This may be so. Certainly a British cannot have much 51 in the weathermen, whose predictions, in many cases, 52 to be wrong! The man in the street seems to be as accurate—or as inaccurate—as the weathermen in his 53 .
Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references 54 weather that the British make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are 55 by comments on the weather. "Nice day, isn't it?" "Beautiful day!" may well be heard instead of "Good morning, how are you?". 56 the foreigner may consider this exaggerated(夸张的) and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his 57 . If he wants to start a conversation with a British but is 58 to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a(n) 59 subject to which a response may well be 60 of even the most reserved of the British.
