• 2．I was determined to learn swimming at the age of ten.At the K.P.L.B.jye.ai a pool offering the opportunity.My mother constantly warned against it，and bore fresh in my mind the details of each drowning in the river.But the K.P.L.B.jye.ai was safe.
     My fear of water started from childhood.It began when I was four years old and father took me to the beach.There the huge waves knocked me down and swept over me.
     The K.P.L.B.jye.ai was quiet.I was afraid of going in all alone，so I sat on the side of the pool to wait for others.Then came a big boy.He yelled， "Hi，Skinny!How'd you like to be ducked？" With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end.I landed in a sitting position，and swallowed water.But I was not frightened out of my wits-when my feet hit the bottom，I would make a big jump，come out of the surface.It seemed a long way down.I gathered all my strength when I landed and made what I thought was a great spring upwards.Then I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water.I tried to yell but no sound came out.I went down，down，endlessly.
     When I came to consciousness，I found myself on the bed in the hospital.
     I never went back to the pool.I avoided water whenever I could.This misadventure stayed with me as the years rolled by.It deprived me of the joy of boating and swimming.Finally，I decided to get an instructor.Piece by piece，I practiced hard and finally he built a swimmer.Several months later，the instructor was finished，but I was not.Sometimes the terror would return.
     This went on till July.I swam across the Lake Wentworth.Only once did the terror return.When I was in the middle of the lake，I put my face under and saw nothing but bottomless water.I laughed and said， "Well，Mr.Terror，what do you think you can do to me？"

• 3．EVEN the best of communicators can sometimes hit a wrong note， whether with a joke，turn of phrase，or even an ill-timed chuckle（輕笑）.
     For instance，a former finance minister Ken Gabriel usually tries to keep things casual when answering reporters' questions.But in a television interview on the news program 60 Minutes，some people felt his register was a little too casual-even careless.
     At one point，Gabriel spoke about the bankers who have been widely blamed for causing the collapse of the financial sector："I mean there were a whole bunch of folks who，on paper，if you looked at quarterly reports，were wildly successful，selling derivatives that turned out to be …completely worthless，" Gabriel said，with a chuckle.
     Shocked by Gabriel's laughter during the interview，journalist David finally asked： "You're sitting here.And you're-you are laughing.You are laughing about some of these problems."
     Gabriel quickly explained himself by replying， "No，no.There's gotta be a little humor to get you through the day." But that exchange ended up making news，as TV pundits，journalists and public relations experts debated Gabriel's tone.
     One unnamed strategist for Gabriel's party said that the finance minister's attempts at humor were distracting："Gabriel is gifted in so many ways，but humor is not something that he seems to be comfortable with.He does not come across as a funny guy."
     The TV critic Daniel，meanwhile，came to Gabriel's defense.
     "Gabriel isn't a rookie…All this laughter seems clearly to be calculated rather than accidental.His laughs last night were designed as laughs of reassurance.They were designed to tell the TV audience he understands the severity of the situation."
     There would have been little debate if Gabriel had not laughed during a speech.Answering questions in a public setting，however，should allow for a more conversational register.But as Gabriel discovered，not everyone agrees on just how casual the tone should be.
  
  （1）What's the meaning of the phrase hit a wrong note？

  
  A．Say something wrong.
  B．Do something wrong.
  C．Write down something wrongly.
  D．Play the music wrongly.
  （2）What did Gabriel do when journalist David asked him about the laughter？

  
  A．Tried to account for it.
  B．Found an excuse for it.
  C．Refused to say anything about it.
  D．Learned a lesson from it.
  （3）Which of the following stands by Gabriel？

  
  A．The banker.
  B．David.
  C．The unnamed strategist.
  D．Daniel.
  （4）Which of the following may be the best title for the passage？

  
  A．Debatable speeches of Gabriel.
  B．Be cautious while you are speaking.
  C．Gabriel's rude behavior in speeches.
  D．Honest or not，it's hard to say.
