【题目】Mrs. Strickland did not talk much, but she had a pleasant gift for keeping the conversation general; and when there was a pause she threw in just the right remark to set it going once more.

"Why do nice women marry dull men?"

"Because intelligent men won't marry nice women. "

Mrs. Strickland had the gift of sympathy.

There was another thing I liked in Mrs. Strickland. She managed her surroundings with elegance(优雅). Her flat was always neat and cheerful with flowers. The meals in the little dining room were pleasant; the table looked nice; the food was well cooked. It was impossible not to see that Mrs. Strickland was an excellent housekeeper. And you felt sure that she was an admirable mother. There were photographs in the drawing room of her son and daughter. The son—his name was Robert—was a boy of sixteen at Rugby. He had his mother’s fine eyes. He looked clean, healthy, and normal.

“I don’t know that he’s very clever,” she said one day, when I was looking at the photograph, “but I know he’s good. He has a charming character.”

The daughter was fourteen. Her hair, thick and dark like her mother’s, fell over her shoulders, and she had the same kindly expression and untroubled eyes.

“They both look like you,” I said.

“Yes, I think they are more like me than their father.”

“Why have you never let me meet him?” I asked.

“Would you like to?” she smiled and her smile was really very sweet.

“You know, he’s not at all literary,” she said. “He has no interest in literature.”

“He’s on the Stock Exchange(证券交易所), and he’s a typical broker(经纪人). I think he’d bore you to death.”

“Does he bore you?” I asked.

“You see, I happen to be his wife. I’m very fond of him.” She smiled to cover her shyness, and her eyes grew tender.

“He doesn’t pretend to be a talent. He doesn’t even make much money on the Stock Exchange. But he’s awfully good and kind.”

“I think I should like him very much.”

“I’ll ask you to dine with us quietly some time, but mind, you come at your own risk; don’t blame me if you have a very dull evening.”

1Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Mrs. Strickland is a very good housekeeper.

B. Her daughter looks more like her than her husband.

C. Her son, clever or not, has a pleasant character.

D. Mrs. Strickland doesn’t love her husband because of his dullness.

2What does the sentence “I think he’d bore you to death” imply(暗示)?

A. Mrs. Strickland doesn’t think her husband is a dull man.

B. It must be boring for the guest to talk with Mr. Strickland because of different interests.

C. Mrs. Strickland fears that her husband will make the guest die.

D. The guest will finally find Mr. Strickland is a humorous host.

3Which is the closest meaning to the underlined word “awfully”?

A. Personally.

B. Gradually.

C. Extremely.

D. Badly.

4What does the author think of Mrs. Strickland in this passage?

A. Elegant and attractive.

B. Dull and unconfident.

C. Beautiful and unlucky.

D. Bitter and foolish.
