The French are the best. Its the Germans who dont have a good habit of standing in line. They cant stand to wait for anything. They begin to shout loudly and noisily if the line doesnt seem to be moving fast enough. Sadly it never moves fast enough for them.The experts studied 940 people across Europe. They watched secretly as they waited in line to get tickets, to order fast food and to wait for the bus. They found people who are good at forming (排成) queues feel that they move along faster. For example, in Britain, the average waiting at a queue needs about three and a half minutes. In Germany or Sweden people hate waiting in line. In fact, people spend double the time as the British in queues. They get to the front of the queue without thinking about others, so they waste others time.The expert who did the research had asked a person to break into a queue to see what people would do. In Britain, people shouted loudly at him, but when he said, I m terribly sorry. I didnt realize there was a queue. Do go before me. People smiled and said. Oh, thats all right, one more wont matter much. It was also found in France, where 80 of the people didnt mind standing in line only if they were treated politely. While in Germany everyone was angry and wore an unhappy face. The expert said, If only they could learn from the British and the French to think of queuing as an exercise in making the best of an unhappy thing, they might find that the queue then moves faster.（1）The research shows that the people in _ are the most polite in standing in line.A .

Always that clock stood like an old family friend, watching over the laughter and gentle joking. As a child, I was amazed at how at different times of the day, that clock would chime(鸣响). I found the clock comforting. Year after year, the clock chimed, a part of my memories, a part of my heart. Even more wonderful to me was that my grandfather wound(上发条)that clock with a special key each day, which kept the clock chiming. I remember watching as my grandfather put into the key and wound not too much, never overwind, nor too little. He never let that clock wind down and stop. When we grandkids got a little older, he showed us how to open the door. After my beloved grandfather died, it was several days after the funeral(葬礼)before I remembered the clock！Tears flowed freely when I walked into the dining room. The clock stood lonely quiet. Without my grandfathers special touch, I couldnt stand to look at it. Years later, my grandmother gave me the clock and the key. The old house was quiet. No laughter and gentle joking over the dinner table, no chiming of the clock-all was still(寂静的). I took the key in my shaking hand and opened the clock door. All of a sudden, I was a child again, watching my grandfather looking at me, at the secret of the clocks magic, at the key that held so much power. Slowly, I put into the key and wound the clock.

In the movement of the hands of the clock, my grandfather lived again. （1）What did the grandfather clock mean to the writer from Paragraph 1？ A . A close friend of his family.B .
