He met her at a party.She was so outstanding,with many boys around her,while he was so normal, with nobody paying attention to him.

At the end of the party,he invited her to have coffee with him.She was surprised,but due to being polite,she agreed.

They sat in a nice coffee shop.He was too nervous to say anything,and she felt uncomfortable,thinking,“Please let me go home.”

Suddenly he asked the waiter,“Would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee.”

Everybody stared at him——so strange! His face turned red,but,still,he put the salt in his coffee and drank it.

She asked him curiously,“Why do you have this hobby?”

He replied,“When I was a little boy,I was living near the sea.I liked playing in the sea, and I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee.Now every time I have the salty coffee.I always think of my childhood.I miss my hometown so much.I miss my parents who are still living there.”

While saying that tears filled his eyes.She was deeply touched.That's his true feeling,from the bottom of his heart.A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, and has responsibility of home.

Then she also started to speak,about her faraway hometown,her childhood, her family.That was a really nice talk,also a beautiful beginning of their story.

They continued to date.She found that actually he was a man who meets all her demands;he was kind-hearted, warm and careful.He was such a good person but she almost missed him!

Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love story,the princess married the prince, then they were living a happy life…And, every time she made coffee for him,she put some salt in the coffee.

After 40 years, he passed away,leaving her a letter which said,“My dearest,please forgive my whole life lie.This was the only lie I said to you—the salty coffee.

“Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous at that time.Actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt.It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead.

“I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything.

“Now I'm dying, I'm afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth:I don't like the salty coffee.What a strange bad taste! But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life!

“Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you.Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life.If I can live for a second time,I still want to know you and have you for my whole life,even though I have to drink the salty coffee again.”

Her tears made the letter totally wet.

Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I  17  a rest before catching the train, so I bought a   18  and some chocolate and went to the station coffee shop that was a cheap, self-service place with long   19 to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to   20  a place and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the   21   seat.

The boy looked at me    26   . then he took another piece of my chocolate. I could hardly   27  it. Still I didn’t want to start an argument. When he took a  28    piece , I felt more  29  than annoyed. I thought, “ Well, I shall have the last piece.” And I  30  it.
The boy gave me a   31  look, and then stood up. As he left, he shouted out, “This woman is mad!” Everyone   32  . That really made me feel silly, but it was   33   when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red—as red as his hair when I   34    I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate he’d been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my  35   .

科目:高中英語 來源:2012屆福建省寧德市三校高二下學期期中聯(lián)考英語題 題型:閱讀理解

When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’ houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.

    “We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”

    I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought ‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for ‘holidays” is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said ‘VACANCLES’, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO VACANCLES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!

    We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold.

    English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris. when someone offered me some more. coffee, I said ‘Thank you’ in French. I meant that I would like some more, However , to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that ‘Thank you’ in French means ‘No, thank you.’

1.My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.

   A. learning English                     B. finding places to stay in England

   C. driving their car on English roads  D. going to England by car

2.I suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because ______.

   A. they would be able to practise their English

   B. it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels

   C. it would be convenient for them to have dinner

   D. there would be no problem about finding accommodation there

3.“NO VACANCIES” in English means ______.

A. no free rooms                  B. free rooms     

C. not away on holiday             D. holidays

4.If you see a road sign that says ‘Diversion’, you will ______.

   A. fall into a hole

   B. have a lot of fun and enjoy yourself

   C. find that the road is blocked by crowds of people

   D. have to take a different road

5.When someone offered me more coffee and I said ‘Thank you’ in French,

I ______.

   A didn’t really want any more coffee  B. wanted them to take the coffee pot away

   C. really wanted some more coffee    D. hadn’t finished drinking my coffee
