I told him 36 that the main reason why I was 37 with them was my 38 to keep my family in Boston. My wife of 26 years old had recently died of a heart attack. A(n) 39 in Boston would also help me reduce some of the pain of the loss. Bruce, the interviewer, was politely sympathetic, and didn’t probeany 40 . He acknowledged my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another 41 . After the next 42 of interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another manager. Then he asked me to take a 43 with him. He told me that he, 44 , had lost his wife. And he had also been married 20 years and had three children. In his sharing, I realized that he had 45 the same pain as I had, a pain that was almost 46 to explain to someone who had not lost a loved 47 . He offered his business card and home phone number and 48 that, if I needed help or just wanted someone to 49 , I should feel 50 to give him a call, no matter 51 I got the job or not. He wanted me to know that he was there if I 52 needed any help. From that one act of kindness, when he had no 53 whether we would ever see each other again, he helped me 54 one of life’s greatest losses. He turned the normal 55 business interview process into an act of caring and support for another person in a time of need.

I fell in love with England because it was quaint(古雅的)all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls' house. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. Ive slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think its an ugly town now.

Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentleman, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is gone, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.

I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. Youre forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.

As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p. m.. I used to use it, but now Im afraid.

The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and thats typically French. In Middleses I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

1. The writer doesnt like London because she__________.

A. is not used to the life there now

A. In a cafe.             B. In a restaurant.         C. In a nightclub.     D. In a pub.

3. The underlined word “it” in Para. 4 refers to__________.

A. a taxi           B. the money        C. a bomb          D. public transport

4. The writer took her neighbour to France for Christmas because he__________.
