Question

16．[1]In ancient Greece，there was a great philosopher named Socrates． One day one fellow met him and said，"Do you know what I just heard about your friend？"
[2]"        ，"Socrates replied．"Before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test． It's called the Triple Filter Test（三重过滤测试）．
[3]"Triple filter？"
[4]"That's right，"Socrates continued．"Before you talk to me about my friend，it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say． The first filter is Truth． Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true？"
[5]"No，"the man said，"actually I just heard about it and…"
[6]"All right，"said Socrates．"So you don？t know if it's true or not． Now let's try the second filter，the filter of Goodness． Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good？"
[7]"No，on the contrary…"
[8]‘‘So，"Socrates continued，"you want to tell me something bad about him，but you're not certain it's true．You may still pass the test though，because there's one filter left，the filter of Usefulness．Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me？"
[9]"No，not really．"
[10]"Well，"concluded Socrates，"if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful，why tell it to me at all？"
    LESSON：
[11]You can always participate in loose talks when you feel bored． But when it comes to your friends it's not worth it． Always avoid talking behind the back about your near and dear friends．

Answer 1

分析 本文是一篇带有哲理的小故事．讲述了一个人在想要告诉Socrates有关他朋友的一件事情，但Socrates巧妙用Triple Filter Test告诉我们，不要在背后议论我们的朋友．

解答 76．Socrates'Test．/Triple Filter Test  主旨大意概括题．从全文内容可以看出，主要讲Socrates用巧妙的三重过滤测试来诉我们，不要在背后议论我们的朋友．
77．Wait a minute．/Just a minute．根据第二段内容看出Socrates并没有立刻回答他的问题，而是迟疑了然后转移了话题．
78．What the fellow had just heard about Socrates'friend．/What the fellow wanted to tell Socrates about his friend．/Something bad about Socrates'friend． 上段提到苏格拉底第一个测试"Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true？"，所以下文的it代指这句话．
79．Truth．Goodness．Usefulness．根据第四、六和八段内容可以概括出，三重测试内容为：Truth．Goodness．Usefulness．
80．Do not tell me anything bad about my friend．/I wouldn't hear anything bad about my friend．/I never participate in loose talks about my friend．/I never talk behind the back about my friend．/Avoid talking behind the back about your near and dear 文章最后一句话"Always avoid talking behind the back about your near and dear friends．"即为所要表达的意义，"不要在背后议论自己的朋友"．
