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
What may have happened to the man’s daughter?
A.She died of breast cancer. B.She was ill with cancer.
C.She had gone abroad. D.She got married.
What will the young man probably ask at the end of the story?
A.May I give it to my mother? B.Can you help me put it on?
C.Will you please forgive me? D.Shall we have some drink together?
What is the best title for the passage?

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. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
