I am not angry ____ you, but _____ what you have done.

听力原文：M：Oh，I am terribly sorry．I will pay the bill for your new blouse's cleaning．

W：Don't worry about it. You didn't do it deliberately．And I'm sure the orange juice won't stain the fiber．

Q：What can we learn about the woman？

(18)

A．She will have her blouse cleaned by the man.

B．She is very angry with the man.

C．She will have a bottle of orange juice.

D．She doesn't blame the man for his carelessness.

If you say to your children "I am sorry I got angry with you, but ..." what follows that "but' can render the apology ineffective. "I had a bad day" or "your noise was giving me a headache" leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior. in expecting an apology.

Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say 'Tm sorry you're upset"; this suggests that you are somewhat at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.

Then there is the general, all covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that was particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying "I'm useless as a parent" does not commit a person to any specific improvement.

These pseudo-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies.

But even when presented with examples of genuine contrition, children will need help to become aware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy to requires an apology. A six-year-old might need to be shown that raiding the buscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent's clothes without permission is not.

If a mother adds "but" to an apology, ______.

A．she doesn't feel that she should have apologized

B．she does not realize that the child has been hurt

C．the child may find the apology easier to accept

D．the child may feel that he owes her an apology

Cars–curse or craze？

Johnny Watson, 30

It is easy to criticize cars – they cause pollution and accidents, and so on. But what are alternatives？ Nobody wants to travel in a slow, smelly old bus when you can relax in the comfort of your own car. In most countries, the public transport system is inadequate, expensive and inefficient – and anyway, cities today are designed to meet drivers’ needs, with fast roads and car parks everywhere. The car industry also provides thousands of jobs. Roads are getting safer and more efficient every year, and cars are causing less pollution because of lead-free petrol and other technological improvement. What’s the problem？

Amanda Rees, 33

I am much happier now that I don’t have my car. I used to spend an hour stuck in a traffic jam each morning and that made me angry and irritable for the rest of the day. I was so stressed! The worst thing about cars, though, is the number of accidents. Did you know that somebody dies in a road accident in Britain every two and a half hours？ Another thing I hate is the way that road building is destroying the countryside. Finally, I would love to live without that constant traffic noise coming through the window. In fact, I think it’s the noise that bothers me most.

M: He moved into his own apartment？ Well, no wonder he's looking so thin. He really should try to gain some weight. He's probably not eating enough.

W: Yes. Well, anyway, bow's Tim these days？

M: Tim？ Oh, Tim has me worried, too. He is really getting much too fat. He needs to lose about 75 pounds now. I don't know what to do. I keep telling him to go on a diet, but he gets angry every time I try to talk to him about it.

W: 75 pounds？ That's a lot of weight to lose. What does Tim eat？

M: I really don't know. But I am sure he is eating too much cake and candy. I keep telling him, "Tim, dear, you will just have to eat more fruit and less candy." He doesn't listen to me. Maybe Marc should talk to him.

W: Well, maybe. Oh, did I tell you he's decided to be a vegetarian？ That has me very worried. He only eats vegetables and fruit.

M: Marc doesn't eat any meat？ That's probably why he's so thin! Does he smoke？

W: Does he smoke？ About two packs of cigarettes a day. That's my son—a smoking vegetarian.

M: Marc smokes two packs a day？ Hmmm, you know, if he stopped smoking he would Rain weight. I know he would. Tim put on a lot of weight when he stopped smoking. But Tim has another problem—even worse. He drinks soda. Soda for lunch. Soda for dinner. Does Marc drink it？

W: No, not very much. Just a little from time to time. Maybe Tim needs a little exercise.
