One silly question I simply can’t understand is "How do you feel?" Usually the question I asked of a man’s action-a man on the go, walking along the street or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say," Fine, I’m all right," but you’ve put a bug in his ear. ——Maybe now he’s not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk, that he overlooked(忽略)that morning. It starts him worrying a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else. "How do you feel?"
Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for example, to ask "How do you feel?" if you’re visiting a close friend in hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying take a train, or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.
When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays, was in his eighties, someone asked him, "How do you feel?" Shaw put him in his place. "When you reach my age," he said, "either you feel all right or you’re dead."
小題1:According to the writer, greetings such as "how do you feel"_______. 
A.show one’s consideration for others. B.a(chǎn)re a good way to make friends
C.a(chǎn)re proper to ask a man in actionD.generally make one feel uneasy.
小題2:The question "How do you feel" seems to be correct and suitable when asked of________.
A.a(chǎn) man working at his desk.B.a(chǎn) person having lost a close friend.
C.a(chǎn) stranger who looks worried.D.a(chǎn) friend who is ill.
小題3:The writer seems to feel that a busy man should _______.
A.be praised for his efforts.B.never be asked any question.
C.not be bothered(煩擾).D.be discouraged from working so hard.
小題4:You’ve put a bug in his ear means that you’ve ________.
A.made him laugh.B.shown concern for him
C.made fun of himD. given him some kind of warning.

One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister.On this occasion,the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend.I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children.Later,I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.
I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out.I called home with this happy news.But instead of hearing his cheerful,grateful voice on the other end of the line,all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.
It was,I should point out,after 10 p.m.,when the two younger children should have been in bed.and when the two older children should have been answering the phone.“I’ll give him a lesson.”I said.I decided they must be outside.Why they might be outside at 10∶30 on a winter night I had no idea,but it was the only explanation I could come up with.

After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.
During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌萎縮癥). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:
Dear Dick,
My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.
I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew

Recently I gave my adult students homework. It was “go to someone you love and tell them you love them.” It has to be someone you have never said those words to before or at least haven’t shared those words with for a long time.
It sounds like very tough homework since most of the men were over 35 and were raised in the generation of men that were taught expressing emotions is not “macho (陽剛之氣).” Showing feelings or crying was just not done. So this was very threatening homework for some.
At the beginning of our next class, I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them. I fully expected one of the women to volunteer, as was usually the case, but on this evening one of the men raised his hand, quite moved and a bit shaken.
As he unfolded out of his chair (all 1.85 meters of him), he began by saying, “Dennis, I was quite angry with you last week when you gave us this homework. Who were you to tell me to do something that personal?”
“But as I began driving home my conscience (良心)started telling me that I knew exactly who I needed to say ‘I love you’ to.”
“Five years ago, my father and I had a severe disagreement and really never settled it since then. We avoided seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at Christmas or other family gatherings. But even then, we hardly spoke to each other.”
“So last Tuesday by the time I got home I had convinced myself. I was going to tell my father I loved him. It’s strange, but just making that decision seemed to lift a heavy load off my chest.
小題1: The homework is threatening for some students because_________.
A.they are middle-aged peopleB.they are not macho enough
C.they were taught to hide their emotionsD.they didn’t know how to show feelings
小題2: From the passage we know that_________.
A.the adult students have classes in the day time only
B.not all the adult students in the writer’s class are male
C.the man refused to meet his father after their quarrel
D.the man quickly decided to say “I love you” to his father
小題3: The underlined phrase “unfolded out of his chair” in Para 4 is closest in meaning to_________.
A.stood on his chair straightB.sat quietly in the chair
C.bent himself over his chairD.raised himself slowly from the chair
小題4: What does the man imply by saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A.He felt it too strange to say “I love you” to his father.
B.He felt relaxed just thinking of saying “I love you” to his father.
C.He felt very relaxed after saying “I love you” to his father.
D.He had to lift a heavy load off his chest before saying “I love you”.

I was walking along the main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking for somewhere to make a phone call. My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to contact the AA Company. Low grey clouds were gathering across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the side streets. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour whom I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his rounds, but the town was completely dead. The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street. Next to it was the town’s only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint. I hurried forward, but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat. I could not see his face and he didn’t raise his head at the sound of my footsteps.
Carefully, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait for my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the box call door
小題1: At what time was the story set?
A.An early winter morningB.A cold winter afternoon
C.An early summer morningD.A windy summer afternoon
小題2: Which of the following words best describe the writer’s impression of the town?
A.cold and frighteningB.dirty and crowded
C.empty and deadD.unusual and unpleasant
小題3: The underlined word “ trickling” in the last paragraph means_______________
A.rushing out suddenlyB.shining brightly
C.flowing slowly in dropsD.a(chǎn)ppearing slowly
小題4: Why didn’t the man raise his head when the writer came near?
A.He was annoyed at being seen by the writer.
B.He was angry at being disturbed by the writer.
C.He was probably fast asleep.
D.He was probably murdered.
