五、任务型阅读,根据短文内容,按要求回答问题。
In the US and the UK，greeting someone often starts with "Hi，how are you?" This can be confusing（令人迷惑的）for people from other countries. They might think the question needs a serious（严肃的）answer or that it means（意思是）the person wants to talk more. In fact，people in the US and UK often just want to be friendly，even with those they don't know. US people may also say，"What's up?" or "What's good?" to friends. It doesn't mean "What's wrong?" It is just another way of saying hello. And people usually answer with "Not much" or "Nothing".
If you are greeting someone older than you，it's polite to use their family name to show respect（尊重）. For example，you might say，"Hello，Mr Green"，or you might say "Hello，sir"，if you don't know the person's name.
If you meet friends，you could use slang（俚语）like "Hi，mate"，"Alright，buddy"，"Yo"（Hello）or "Howdy"（How do you do?）. That's the first way. Another one is to use compliments（赞美）when you greet each other，like saying，"Wow，I like your hair today" or "Hey，I like your shirt".
