Id never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say. What? Hes all right? He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home! Thank God. I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car.

I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. Ive slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think its an ugly town now.Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good mannerspeople shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. Youre forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p. m. I used to use it, but now Im afraid.The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and thats typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.28.

Thus, feeling kind of inferior(自卑) , the seed gave no importance to his existence (存在).Then one day, a wind picked him up and threw him on an open field under the hot sun. He wanted to know why. But instead of any answer, he was provided with rain besides sunlight, sometimes small and sometimes heavy.Meanwhile time flew and years later he saw a traveler sitting by his side. “Thank God for this. I really need some rest,” he heard the traveler say.“What are you talking about?” The seed soon asked. He thought the man was making fun of him. Sure, he had seen many people sitting by his side but no one ever spoke to him like that. “Whos this?” The man was surprised.“Its me. The seed. ” “The seed?” The man looked at the big tree. “Are you kidding me? Youre no seed. Youre a big tree !” “Really ?” “Yes! Why do you think people come here? To feel your shade!” A moment passed before the travelers words struck the chord of realization within him. The seed, now a great tree, thought and smiled for the first time in his life. Years of sufferings from the sun and the rain finally made sense to him. “Oh! That means Im not a small seed any more! I didnt die unnoticed but was born to help people with tiredness. Wow! Now thats a life worth a thousand gems (宝石) !”32. Why did nobody care to notice the seed?A. The seed felt kind of inferior. B. The seed thought he was not important.C.
