Some haven't been able to do their jobs at all while others don't interact with customers the same way. Just as many services have changed, so should tipping. Some old standards no longer seem fair, and several newer ones will apply long after the pandemic is over. As for specific situations, here's what the experts recommend: FOOD AND DRINKS Restaurant workers OLD RULE:Leave a tip only when you dine in. NEW RULE:Always tip, even for takeout. TIP: 15 to 20 percent when you dine in, and 10 to 15 percent on takeout or delivery orders. HOME DELIVERIES Package delivery drivers OLD RULE:Don't tip. NEW RULE: Show appreciation if you get deliveries more than once a week. TIP: Drinks, snacks, or $5 to $20 if a package is particularly heavy or large. Postal workers cannot accept cash or gifts worth more than $50 per year. UPS tells drivers to decline tips unless a customer insists. And FedEx bans employees from accepting cash or cash equivalents (such as gift cards). PERSONAL SERVICES Ride-share drivers OLD RULE:Tip in cash. NEW RULE:Ask your driver. The Lyft and Uber apps let you add gratuities, but some drivers prefer cash. TIP:15 to 20 percent. Hotel housekeepers OLD RULE: Tip at the end of your stay. NEW RULE: Many hotels now do housekeeping by request only, so tip every time you ask them to come. TIP:A few dollars per night, plus $5 for any extra requests, such as asking for additional toiletries. Next time, you're unsure whether a tip is in order, follow this simple rule: When in doubt, tip. “Tipping well is one way to make things easier for someone else.” 21.According to new rules, which of the following cannot get tips in cash or similar things? A.A restaurant waiter. B.A FedEx deliverer. C.A Lyft driver. D.A hotel housekeeper. 22.If the shared ride booked through the Uber App costs you 20 dollars, which tipping is appropriate? A.Paying 22 dollars through the app. B.Leaving a gift card. D.Offering a bag of snacks. C.Tipping 3 dollars in cash. 23.Where is the passage most probably taken from? A.A research report. C.A short story. B.A fashion magazine. D.An advice brochure. B The 20-year-old student will be the first person to compete in the final of the Miss England contest without make-up in its nearly 100-year history, in an attempt to show girls they don't have to wear it to feel beautiful. Ms. Raouf, from south London, won a special “bare-face” round of the competition last week, strengthening her place in the final between 40 contestants on 17 October. But while previous winners of this round have returned to wearing make-up for the final, she will not. And if she wins, she says she will leave it off for the Miss World competition, hoping to “inspire the world”. “I wanted to prove we have a choice,” she tells BBC News. Since last week's bare-face round, Ms. Raouf has been “ overwhelmed ” by positive messages on social media. At her early age, Ms. Raouf was “ significantly insecure ”, and found comparing herself to the “ unrealistic standard of beauty ” shown on social media had a negative impact on her mental health. But as she got older she gained confidence-and she thinks taking part in the beauty contest, while “very scary” at the time, has increased this. Ms. Raouf does not object to wearing make-up in general, and will still do so on other occasions. She only wants girls to place more value on their “inner beauty” rather than comparing themselves to others. “When you wear that amount of make-up you're just concealing yourself. Remove all those layers and you'll see who you truly are," she adds. Miss World was first organized in 1951 in the UK. Some of the rules of entry for the competition have not been changed since then. Miss England hopefuls cannot be older than 27 in their year of entry, and are not allowed to be married or have given birth to children. In 2018, Veronika Didusenko, who had been crowned Miss Ukraine, said the rules needed to change after she had her title taken away for being a mother. Altering entry rules is difficult but not impossible. Some netizens commented, “Some contestants, Ms. Raouf included, use their platform to do something good in the world.” 24.Ms.Raouf won't wear make-up in the final of the Miss England contest in order to . A.prove girls' natural charms B.show her objection to make-up C.get a better place in the final D.challenge the competition rules 25. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The negative impact. B. Her sense of insecurity. C. Her confidence. D. Her objection to make-up. 26.Who is qualified for the Miss World competition in the UK? A. Sopher, 26, an engineer who is pregnant. B.Laura,23,a teacher at St Mary' s School Ascot. C.Marbella,28,a graduate from Glasgow University. D. Jennifer,25, a housewife who looks after all the household duties. 27. Which of the following can best describe Ms.Raouf? A. Bold and confident. B.Responsible and
