Its
31、 a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. Its a question that often doesnt have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the persons friend isnt fine. The reason is that “How ar
32、e you?” isnt really a question and “Fine” isnt really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”. Sometimes, people dont say what they mean either. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree, I think you are wrong ” But it
33、 isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “Im not sure.” Its a nicer way to say that you dont agree with someone. People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one pers
34、on says “Ive to go now.” often, the person who wants to stop gives an excuse: “ Someones at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesnt want to talk any more, but it isnt polite to say that. The exc
35、use is more polite, and it doesnt hurt the other person. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often dont say exactly what they are thinking. Its an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and its all part of the game of language. (
