"I know, It"s my shadow on the ground." We saw that each girl and boy had a shadow and Miss Brooks had a bigger one. I tried some funny tricks. When I moved, my shadow moved.

All this started me thinking about shadows. I did not have a shadow the day before, when I walked in the darkness. My shadow is never with me in my room at night when the light is out.

"Please come and have a piece of bread." "Thank you very much." Johnson got off the donkey and said gladly." "But I have already had lunch." "I"m sorry. I"m talking to your donkey, not to you." Fred said with a smile. Johnson understood at once that the boy was playing a trick on him. He became angry, but he didn"t show his anger. He just turned quickly to his donkey, held up the lash (鞭子) and hit it on the back. "Before we set off, I asked if you had friends in the town. You said again and again that you hadn"t. Can you explain why the young man asked you to have the bread, then?" The more the old man said, the less he could control his anger.

I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance (保险业) company. I told him honestly why I wanted the job-I needed to keep my family in Boston. My wife recently died of a heart attack (心脏病). A job in Boston would help me reduce some of the extreme trauma (精神创伤) and pain of the loss for my 16-year-old daughter. It was important for me to keep her in her high school. I could still hardly talk about the loss of my wife. Bruce, the interviewer, was politely empathetic, but he didn"t probe (彻底调查) any further. He admitted (接受) my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of the interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another person. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he, too, had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had three children. In his sharing, I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had a pain that was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a beloved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, if I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call. Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. When he had no idea if we would ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of the greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview into a caring support for another person in need. |
1. The writer took part in the interview because _______. |
[ ] |
A. he had lost his job and wanted to find a new one B. he had to support his family in Boston C. his wife had recently died of a heart attack D. his daughter needed money for schooling |
2. The underlined word "empathetic" in the sixth line means _______. |
