More original than what people eat at McDonald's in the USA C One silly question I simply can't stand is "How do you feel?" Usually the question is asked of a man in 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 am all right," but "you've put a bug in his ear"—maybe he's not sure. If you have a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk that he overlooked 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 instance, to ask "How do you feel?" if you're visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to catch a train, or sitting at his desk working, it is no time to ask him that silly question.

She didn’t have many friends in her new neighborhood, so after she sent her husband and children to work and school, she spent a lot of time in the garden. She loved the flowers, shrubs(灌木)and trees. One day, when Nancy was expecting some special visitors, she took extra care of the garden. She pulled the weeds, trimmed(修剪)the shrubs, cut the grass, and carefully cleaned all the dry autumn leaves. As she was working, an old woman was watching her with interest over the fence. Nancy had met this woman several times in the streets. She seemed to be friendly to everybody. When Nancy had finished, she stood back to admire her work. “Isn’t it beautiful?” she called out to the old woman. “Yes,” replied the old woman, “but there is something missing. May I come in? I’ll put it right for you.” (责任编辑：admin) |
