A famous actor often had to travel by train. Of course, a lot of his fellow-passengers used to recognize him on his journeys, and some of them tried to get into conversation with him, but he was usually feeling tired after acting until late the night before, so he did not encourage them to talk to him.
One day he had just got into the train with all his luggage when a young man came and sat down in the seat opposite him. The young man took out a book and began to read it, while the actor tried to get some sleep in his corner of the carriage.
When he opened his eyes, he found that the young man was looking at him with his mouth open, his book forgotten. The actor shut his eyes and tried to sleep again, but every time he opened them, the young man was looking at him with the same fixed look. At last he gave up the attempt to sleep, took out a newspaper, put it up in front of him and began to read.
After a few moments the young man cleared his throat and spoke. “I beg your pardon, sir,” he said, “but haven't I seen you somewhere before?”
The actor did not answer. He did not even put his newspaper down.
The young man said nothing more for several minutes, but then he tried again. “I beg your pardon, sir,” he said, “but are you going to San Francisco?”
The actor put his paper down this time, looked at the young man severely without saying a word, and then put the paper up in front of him again.
This time there was an even longer pause before the young man spoke again. Then he said in a last attempt to start a conversation with the great man, “I am George P. Anderson of Wilmington, Vermont.”
This time the actor put his paper down and spoke. “So am I,” he said.
That was the end of the conversation.

阅读下列短文,掌握其大意,然后从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
Lisa is ten years old. She is handicapped(残疾) because she has brain damage. She could not do even the most simple thing until a year ago. She could not comb her hair or feed herself. Her parents loved her. But they treated her like baby.
Mr Ching has a daughter and a son. They are both grown. They live far from their father. Mr Ching felt lonely. He decided to do something about it. He decided to become a foster grandfather to a handicapped child. And that was how he met Lisa.
Foster grandparents are grandparents who are not related by birth. But foster grandparents love the children they care for. They love them just as natural grandparents love their grandchildren.
The foster grandparents also help the handicapped children in special ways. They help to dress and feed the children. They read to them and tell them stories. They also help with the handicapped children's therapy. Therapy is the treatment of a disease or disorder. It helps the children overcome their handicaps.
Mr Ching became a foster grandparent to Lisa when she was nine years old. At first, Lisa was shy. She was afraid because Mr Ching was a stranger. But he came to see her every day. Gradually, she began to trust him.
At last Lisa let Mr Ching do things for her. He came at lunch time and fed her. One day he handed her the spoon and guided it to her mouth. He told her she must learn to feed herself.
“Most of that lunch ended up on us instead of in Lisa's mouth,”Mr Ching remembers.“But it was a start for Lisa. She learned to feed herself in a few months.”
Then Lisa was ready for more therapy, thank to Mr Ching. She had learned to do one simple thing. She could learn to do other simple things. Mr Ching was trained to help with Lisa's therapy.
To become foster grandparents, people must be at least sixty years old and in good health. They must be willing to give their time to handicapped children. They are volunteers, so they are not paid. They are given money for expenses, such as transportation.
Mr Ching speaks for most foster grandparents when he says,“We all benefit. The handicapped children benefit because we help them live more useful lives. And we benefit because we know the children need us and love us. For any person, there's no greater happiness than that!”
