Americanschoolbusesareusuallypaintedyellow.
2)Shegraduatedinthesecond20%(secondquintile)osherclass.
百分之二十是五分之一。
此处是把班里同学按成绩优劣分为五档。
Cindy属于第五档,虽不是最好,但也不错,相当于我们所说的“中上等”。
因此,文中提到Shewasafairlygoodstudents.

3)Acompanythatrecruitedyouforanewjoblastyearmay,this,year,“decruit”you---noprizesforguessing
whatthatmeans!
recruit:
(美国英语)“淘汰,调整雇员”的意思。
这是近年来产生的词,由前缀de+cruit构成,“de”是一个表示否定的前缀。
破折号后插入语的意思是:
即使你猜出这个词的意思也是白搭,也就是说,不会因为你知道这个词的意思而不解聘你.
4)user-friendly:
(计算机用语)方便用户的(也指电脑程序容易使用的),使用方便的,简易的。
5)Itmightbeachangeintechnology…
Itmightbeachangeinthejob-market
这里,might表示可能性,语气比may委婉一些。
6)MoredifficulttounderstandistheAmericancarfactory
triedto“sell”theideaof5000workersbeinglaidoffworkbyusingtheexpression“CareerAlternativeEnhancementProgram”.
tobelaidoffwork是“下岗”的意思。
但是,这个美国汽车工厂为了辩护自己的形象,把解雇职员称为“拓宽择业渠道计划”,这是使用委婉语的一个例子。
7)Futurehistorianswilltrytostayon-messageastheyreadabouthomeshopping,andlonely-heartsans.,yuppiesandyummiest.
lonely-hearts=lonelyhearts,指那些通过找介绍人,参加特建的俱乐部或在报刊上刊登征友启事等办法寻找异性朋友的人.

•Whateverlanguagewespeak,weareconstantlydevelopingnewwordstoexpressnewaspectsofourdevelopingculture.
whatever由what+ever构成,ever起加强语气的作用。
Whatever“无论什么”引出让步从句,相当于“nomatterwhat”.
“疑问词+ever”构成的词还有whoever,whenever,whichever,wherever,etc.
例:
whateverIdo,Idoitforyou.
wheneveritispossible,hetriestohelp.
