Mrs James:Certainly.Now I just give you some cakes.In fact you don’t like it,but you don’t want to let me know it.Instead you say,“No,thanks.I’m not hungry.”That’s a white lie.

试题分析:本文是Mary不明白英语中颜色的其他含义,故求助于Mrs James。Mrs James不仅认真地回答了Mary的问题,而且还欢迎她再来。。
1. 细节理解题。根据MrsJames的第一个答语:In everyday English,Mary,blue sometimes means sad,日常英语中。蓝色有时意味着悲伤。Everyday English日常英语,一般多指spoken English英语口语。故判断为B。
2. 推理判断题。根据文中的A person with a green thumb grows plants well一个种植能手能种好植物。I don’t have a green thumb意思是我不会种植,所有植物都枯萎了。故判断为A。
3. 细节理解题。根据文中的blue sometimes means sad,有因为题干中说“他被告知他的父亲病得厉害,因为他很难过”。故选A。

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.
I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”
Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure(珍惜) all your life!
