  Polly Jones lived on a farm.She had lived there all her life,all twelve years of it.Her father,who managed the farm,had just lifted the potato crop.Prices were high:he wanted to sell the crop as quickly as he could.

  Polly wandered over the rough field looking for the smaller potatoes that the pickers had accidentally missed.She found one,then another,then a handful.She was pleased.They were delicious once cooked.Then she caught sight of something else.It looked like a piece of coloured stone.Polly picked it up and thought how pretty it was.She could see a pattern on it:a picture of a fish and a part of a leaf.She scraped(擦去)the soil away around her feet and found that she was standing on what seemed to be a piece of pavement(铺路石).Stuck to another piece of stone was something small and round like a button.She realized it was an old coin.

  The field was busy the next morning though not with potato pickers.In front of the house where the farm machinery usually stood were several cars and a policeman.A group of distinguished-looking men and women had appeared the morning after her father's telephone call.The local television station had shown some pictures of the field with Polly pointing to the place where she had found her pavement.It was proving to be of Roman origin and was being described as the most exciting thing that had happened in the area since the end of the Second World War.In those days an American airbase had occupied the site of the potato field.

  A week later about forty students arrived from the local university.That afternoon a truck with equipment arrived.The excavation(挖掘)was officially under way.Permission had been given and the“dig”,as it was called,was expected to last several months.Polly wondered how the everyday work of the farm would get done with so many strange people around and cars coming and going all day long.All the unusual activity had made the cows and sheep restless.Her father said their cows produced less milk.

  Still,it was interesting and great fun.They had let her keep the gold coin.

  From then on,Polly wouhl always walk carefully over potato fields.

A handsome middle??aged man walked quietly into the cafe and sat down. Before he ordered,he couldn’t help but notice a group of younger men at the table next to him. It was obvious they were making fun of something about him and it wasn’t until he remembered he was wearing a small pink ribbon(丝带) on the lapel of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about.

The man pretended not to notice it,but the whisper and laughter began to get to him. He looked one of the rude young men straight into the eye,placed his hand beneath the ribbon and asked,“This?”

With that the young men all began to laugh out loud. The man he spoke to said,“Hey,sorry,man, but we were just commenting on how pretty your little pink ribbon looks against your blue jacket!”

The middle??aged man calmly invited the joker to come over to his table, and politely seated him. As uncomfortable as he was, the young guy had to, not really sure why. In a soft voice,the middle??aged man said, “I wear this ribbon to bring awareness about breast cancer. I wear it in my mother’s honor.”

“Oh, sorry. She died of breast cancer?”

“No, she didn’t. She’s alive and well. But her breasts nourished me as a baby,and were a soft resting place for my head when I was scared or lonely as a little boy. I’m very grateful for my mother’s breasts, and her health.”

“Umm,” the young replied “yeah.”

“And I wear this ribbon to honor my wife” the man continued.

“And she’s okay, too?”the young guy asked.

“Oh, yes. She’s fine. Her breasts have been a great source of loving pleasure for both of us,and with them she nurtured and nourished our daughter 23 years ago. I’m grateful for my wife’s breasts,and her health.”

“Uh, huh. And I guess you wear it to honor your daughter, also?”

“No. It’s too late to honor my daughter by wearing it now...”

Shaken and ashamed,the young guy said, “Oh, I’m so sorry,mister.”

“So, in my daughter’s memory, too, I proudly wear this little ribbon, which allows me the opportunity to enlighten others. And here...”With this,he reached in his pocket and handed the young man a little pink ribbon. The young guy looked at it, slowly raised his head and asked, “...?”

The young men joked about the middle??aged man’s________.

A.looks       B.ribbon      C.attitude     D.clothes

科目:高中英语 来源:2013届广东省揭阳市高三第二次模拟英语试卷(带解析) 题型:阅读理解

An “apple polisher” is one who gives gifts to win friendship or special treatment. It is not exactly a bribe(贿赂), but is close to it.
All sorts of people are apple polishers, including politicians and people in high offices—just about everybody. Oliver Cromwell, the great English leader, offered many gifts to win the support of George Fox and his party, but failed.
There are other phrases meaning the same thing as “apple-polishing”—“soft-soaping” or “buttering-up”. A gift is just one way to “soft-soap” somebody, or to “butter him up”. Another that is just as effective is flattery, giving someone high praise—telling him how good he looks, or how well he speaks, or how talented and wise he is.
Endless are the ways of flattery. Who does not love to hear it? Only an unusual man can resist the thrill of being told how wonderful he is. In truth, flattery is good medicine for most of us, who get so little of it.
We need it to be more sure of ourselves. It cannot hurt unless we get carried away by it. But if we just lap it up for its food value and nourishment, as a cat laps up milk, then we can still remain true to ourselves.
Sometimes, however, flattery will get you nothing from one who has had too much of it. A good example is the famous 12th century legend of King Canute of Denmark and England. The king got tired of listening to endless sickening flattery of his courtiers(朝臣). They overpraised him to the skies, as a man of limitless might.
He decided to teach them a lesson. He took them to the seashore and sat down. Then he ordered the waves to stop coming in. The tide was too busy to listen to him. The king was satisfied. This might show his followers how weak his power was and how empty their flattery.
【小题1】Which of the following activities has nothing to do with “apple-polishing”?

A.A boy tells his girlfriend how pretty she looks.
B.An employee tells her boss how good he is at management.
C.A knight is said to be of limitless power by his followers.
D.A teacher praises her students for their talent and wisdom.
【小题2】What does the writer want to prove with Cromwell’s example?
A.Everybody can be an apple-polisher.
B.Cromwell was not a good apple-polisher.
C.George Fox and his party were not apple-polishers.
D.There are people who don’t like being apple-polished.
【小题3】Which of the following statements about flattery is true according to the author?
A.Too much flattery can carry us away.
B.Flattery is too empty to do people any good.
C.Flattery can get you nothing but excessive(过度的) pride.
D.Flattery is one of the ways to apple-polish people.
【小题4】Why did King Canute of Denmark and England take his followers to the seashore?
A.Because he was sick of his normal life.
B.Because he disliked being overpraised any more.
C.Because he wanted them to realize how wise he was.
D.Because he wanted them to see how weak he was as a king.
【小题5】Who does the author think that flattery can do good to ?
A.Those who are politicians or in high offices.
B.Those who lack confidence.
C.Those who are really excellent.
D.Those who think highly of themselves.
