One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is "How do you feel?" Usually the question is asked of a man in action—a man walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say, "Fine, I’m all right. " But you have put a bug in his ear—maybe now he is not sure. If you are his good friend, you may have seen something on his face, or in his walk, that he overlooked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, "How do you feel?"
Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask "How do you feel?" if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to take a train or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.
When George Bernard Shaw, the famous British writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him, "How do you feel?" Shaw put him in his place. "When you reach my age," he said, "either you feel all right or you are dead. " [br] "You have put a bug in his ear" means that you have______.
选项
A、made him laugh
B、shown concern for him
C、made fun of him
D、given him some kind of warning
答案
D
解析
本题是考查句子含义类问题,目的是要求考生根据上下文理解词组“put a bug in his ear”的意义。利用查阅式阅读法找到与此相关的上下文,我们可以推断出你问候从事各种正常活动的人“How do you feel?”可能暗示着他还存在未曾意识到的某些问题。因此选择项A、B和C没有在上下文中表现出来,而D“似乎在提醒他什么”,这个选项的内容刚好表现了原文的信息。所以,本题的正确答案应是D。
