第二节：阅读理解 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

A

I had once helped a friend of mine run a water melon stall. I noticed something interesting.

Almost every buyer would lift the melon up to their ear, smartly tap it, apparently trying to listen

to something. I wondered what they expected to hear.

Finally I could no longer hold back my curiosity and made bold to ask a customer--an

elderly gentleman--about this. Hearing my question, he roared with laughter. Then he replied in a

self-mocking(自嘲) tone, “Young lady, I have been doing this for more than fifty years. All I know

is that everybody would stare at you like you were a fool if you just pick up the melon and leave!”

Not long after that, my water melon stall friend unexpectedly sent me an invitation for her

wedding. which really surprised me. I asked her, “How come you are seized by a sudden desire to

get married? I don’t remember ever hearing you mention that you’ve got a boyfriend.” She

answered while counting money. Everyone has to get married anyway, so it is better to get married

sooner than later.”

I could think of no word to refute(反驳) her. It seems that everybody is living for everybody

else and has forgotten the need of their own heart. It may be safe and save a lot of worries by

following others’ suit in doing things. The use of “we” or “us” will give one a steady and sure

sense of pride. But using the pronoun “I” would often give one a guilty conscience(良心；良知).

I find all these things somewhat funny. We have got used to taking cue from(学样) others

and follow their suit. In turn, we also take it for granted that we should judge the right and wrong

of others by our own standard. As a matter of fact, this massive practice is still wrong though we

all follow other’s suit like this, but we feel at ease and, justified simply because this is the way of
