48、on the other hand，they dont want to pay too much and feel that theyve been cheated”可知，他们不想付太多，觉得自己被骗了。毕竟，小费不是账单的一部分，故选F。20D本段提出解决这一问题的一个常见方法。即建议以账单的一定比例作为小费支付，这样能够避免在该付钱时的尴尬，故选D。.完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)I spent last summer volunteering at a hospital.It was a gift to 21 so many amazing people and Id l
