She had come there at the same hour on the day previous, and on the day before that; and there was one who knew it.The young man who knew it hovered near. His devotion was rewarded, for, in turning a page, her book slipped from her fingers. The young man ran upon it immediately, returning it to its owner.The girl looked him over leisurely at his ordinary, neat dress. “You may sit down, if you like，” she said, in a deliberate contralto(女低音)“Do you know，” he said, “that you are the most charming girl I have ever seen? I had my eye on you yesterday. Didnt know somebody was obsessed by those pretty lamps of yours, did you, honeysuckle？” “Whoever you are，” said the girl, in icy tones, “you must remember that I am a lady. I will excuse the remark you have just made because the mistake was, doubtless, not an unnatural onein your circle.” “I seriously beg your pardon，” said the young man. His expression of satisfaction had changed to regret and shame.“Abandon the subject, if you please. Now, tell me about these people passing and crowding. Where are they going? Why do they so hurry？Are they happy？” The young man had promptly abandoned his air of coquetry(嬉皮笑脸). “It is interesting to watch them，” he replied, “It is the wonderful drama of life. One wonders what their histories are.” “I do not，” said the girl, “I am not so curious about others stories. I come here to sit because here, only, I can be near the great, common, beating heart of humanity. Can you guess why I spoke to you？” The girl, held up a slender finger, and smiled slightly. “Because I wanted to talk, for once, with a natural manone unspoiled by the dirty gloss of wealth. Oh! You do not know how tired I am of itmoney, money, money! I am sick of jewels, of travel, of society, of luxuries，of all kinds. Sometimes the very tinkle of the ice in my champagne glass nearly drives me mad.” “I have always liked to read and hear about the ways of wealthy and fashionable folks. Now, I had formed the opinion that champagne is cooled in the bottle and not by placing ice in the glass，” The young man said.The girl gave a musical laugh of genuine amusement. “You should know，” she explained, “that just now it is a fad to put ice in champagne. The idea was originated by a visiting Prince of Tartary while dining at the Waldorf.” “I see，” admitted the young man, humbly.“Sometimes，” continued the girl, “I have thought that if I ever should love a man, it would be one of lowly station. One who is a worker and not a lazy bone. By the way, what is your occupation？” “A very humble one. Were you serious when you said that you could love a man of lowly position？”“Indeed I was.” “I work in a restaurant.” The girl shrank slightly and asked, “Not as a waiter? Labor is noble, though.” “I am not a waiter. I am a cashier in that restaurant.” The girl consulted a tiny watch upon her left wrist, and rose, hurriedly. “Why are you not at work？” “I am on the night turn，” said the young man. “May I not hope to see you again？” “I do not know. Perhapsbut I must go quickly now. There is a dinnerand, oh! Perhaps you noticed an automobile at the upper corner of the park as you came. Pierre waits for me there. He supposes me to be shopping in the department store across the square. Goodbye.” Passing down the sidewalk, she entered a restaurant. There a redhead girl glanced pointedly at the clock, leaving the cashiers desk. The girl in gray took her place.The young man walked slowly back along the sidewalk and stepped into the automobile and said two words to the driver：“Club, Henri.” 【解题导语】本文为记叙文， 改编自欧亨利的短篇小说汽车等候的时候。 小说描述了一个来自底层社会的女出纳员与一个来自上层社会的富家公子之间的故事。 4Which of the following descriptions about the girl in gray is NOT true?AShe is elegant and contented to be badly off.BShe is an ordinary laborer of lowly station.CShe has an admiration for life in the upper class.DShe is deceptive and insincere.A解析：推理判断题。 通读全文， 不难发现灰衣女孩是一个爱慕虚荣， 幻想上层社会奢华生活的人。 故答案选A。 5Which sentence implies that the girl in gray is not from the upper class?AWhoever you are, you must remember that I am a lady.BI come here to sit because here, only, I can be near the great, common, beating heart of humanity.CSometimes the very tinkle of the ice in my champagne glass nearly drives me mad.DIf I ever should love a man, it would be one of lowly station.C解析：细节理解题。 由文中的“champagne is cooled in the bottle and not by placing ice in the glass” 可知， 香槟酒是整瓶冰镇， 而不是倒在杯子里放冰块冰镇。 而灰衣女孩却说香槟酒杯中叮当作响的冰块有时让她抓狂。 很明显， 女孩在撒谎， 她对上层社会生活的不熟悉也暴露无遗。 故答案选C。 6What may be the reason for the girls consulting a tiny watch upon her left wrist?AShe was to ask the young man to go back to work.BShe was to check if she was late for the dinner.CIt was about time that she went back to work.DIt was one way to show that she was from the upper class.C解析：细节理解题。 由倒数第二段中的“There a redhead girl glanced pointedly at the clock, leaving the cashiers desk.

Thats because biting into anything that requires the use of the front teeth, is likely to cause rude behavior in kids! At least thats the conclusion some researchers from Cornell University have made, after observing the behavior of 12 students at a summer camp.The researchers began by dividing the students into two groups. On the first day, one group was given chicken on the bone. The other was provided with the same chicken cut into delicious, bitesize pieces so that the only way to eat it was with a fork. The following day, the food was exchanged, so that the first group received the small pieces and forks, while the second, enjoyed the chicken on the bone. Each day the camp counselors also gave the kids strict instructions to let them stay within a circle with a 9foot radius.The researcher recorded both the meal time and then asked behavioral experts to evaluate what happened. They agreed that the kids that were required to bite
