举一反三
when this method of communication first came into business life, his company in New York and its satellites
across the earth were among the first to get it.
One evening in New York, the American friend was late for a drink we"d arranged (安排). "Sorry," he
said, "I"ve been away and had to deal with 998 emails." "Wow," I said, "I"m really surprised you made it before
midnight." "It doesn"t really take that long," he explained, "if you simply delete (删除) them all."
The friend had developed his own way on dealing with emails before most of us heard of emails. If any
information he got was very important, his no reply would make the sender ring him up. If the sender wasn"t
important enough to have his phone number, the communication couldn"t be important enough.
Almost every week now, we have to spend lots of time in dealing with emails. But if this happens, it"s only
because we haven"t developed the same thing in dealing with emails as we do with post. Have you ever regarded
an important letter as a piece of advertisement and thrown it out? Of course you haven"t. Junk (垃圾) email
looks unnecessary to read. But I cannot understand why so many people would like to open emails which come
from this kind of address such as SPECIALOFFER@junk.com.
Dealing with emails is an art. Firstly, you delete anything from any address you don"t know. Secondly, not
all the emails have to be answered. Thirdly, a reply email doesn"t have to be the same length as the original (原始
的).
B. Because he had to deal with quite a lot of emails.
C. Because he had to finish his work before midnight.
D. Because he had to delete quite a lot of emails.

I talked with a lot of the homeless people at the shelter. Their life stories filled me with sympathy
(同情). Some of them had 6 with alcohol (烈酒) or drugs (毒品) while others only had 7 luck.
One woman worked for almost 30 years for a small company, and then she lost (失去) her job, she looked

chairs, and tables 10 she could pay for her food. The woman 11 on looking for a job, but she still

was taking a look at the whole class. My eyes 5 on a big black student. He was sitting in the back 6

the back. I 8 the students to find out who did it, but the class looked very 9 . I went on writing and
the noise went on. Then I stopped my lesson to solve this problem because I believed that if I lost control
(控制) of the class from the 10 I wouldn"t be able to get it back. I thought the big boy made the noise.
To my 11 , a small boy was the source (根源) of trouble. Days went 12 and I discovered that the big
boy was good and quiet and the great source of trouble came from a group of small-sized students who became
under control after some weeks. From then on, I realized that judging (判断) by appearance can often be wrong,

lunch. Every time he drove home at noon, he found many cars were parked outside his house and there was no
room for his own car. He had to drive somewhere else to park his car. Then he had to walk back home. This
made him very angry.
He had put up a board, which said, "No parking in the garden facing the road,"but nobody noticed it. People seemed to obey (遵守) only a police notice with white letters on a blue board:
Mrs. Brown suggested (建议)that he should steal a police notice. He was afraid to do so. She then
suggested that he should make one just like a police notice. He said he was not the police and couldn"t use the
word "police". Several days later, Mr. Brown made a blue board with white letters:
"Oh,"Mrs. Brown said, "You told me you weren"t going to use the word "police", but why do you use it
now?" "Really?"he asked, looked at it again.
She started to laugh, "You are really clever."
