       Mr. Dawson was an old bad-tempered man, and everyone in town knew it. Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick apples, because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his gun.

       One Friday, 12-year-old Janet was walking out with her friend Amy. They had to  36  Daw-

son’s house, but as they got  37  , Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over the street. Like most, she was  38  of the old man.

       Amy said, “Don’t  39  .” When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his  40  

frown (皱眉), but when he saw it was Amy, he gave a broad  41  .

       Amy smiled back and told him that they were going to listen to music. Dawson told them that sounded  42  , and gave them each a(an)  43  .

       Later, Janet asked Amy, “Everyone says he’s the  44  man in town.   45  he was so nice to us? ” she pretended he was wearing a(an)  48  smile, so she always smiled. It really took some time  49  he one day half-smiled back.

       After a while, he started smiling a real smile and then  50  to her. She said he always  51

Giving a smile takes so little  54  , but few people are aware of that. Please do remember after a while most people can’t  55  our sunniness at all.

During my visit to China, I stayed in several hotels. I would like to say something about fire regulations(条例) in these hotels.

When I was in Beijing in a hotel, I checked the nearest fire escape to my room, as I usually do, I found that the exit(出口) out of the buildings was on the ground floor, chained and locked! If there was a fire, people wouldn’t be able to escape. In some other places, I did not find any notice about the procedures.

In most hotels in my country, there is a notice on the back of the door of every guestroom. In Japan the porter（门卫）actually points out the escape route when bringing your bag to your room. I hope Chinese hotels will improve their safety procedures.

The foreigner suggests that ____________.

A. all the exits should not be always chained and locked

B. all the exits should be always chained and locked

C. fire regulations（规程，规章）should be paid enough attention to in some hotels in China

D. the fire regulations should not be strict

Nobody would get away if there were a fire in the building ____________.

A. if the porter doesn’t tell people the escape route

B. with the exit chained and locked

C. before people found the notice about safety procedures

D. when too many people try to escape at the same time

The nearest escape to the writer’s room in a hotel in Beijing was _____________.

A. nowhere to be found         B. not far from his room

C. next to his room            D. on the ground floor
