Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits. Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults.

Home has bee more of a feeling than a place. I feel at home when I am with my family in London, but I also feel at home in Italy with friends I love. Home is no longer a picture of a house with a front door and some windows. It is more plicated than that.4．閱讀短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)?？芍xC。根據(jù)最后一段中的“We must defend strangers in the same way we39。故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But we can do it with grace, by handling it without a trace of aggression and without being rude ourselves. ”但我們可以優(yōu)雅地做到這一點(diǎn)，處理它時(shí)不帶一絲侵略性，自己也不粗魯。因此此處fuel意為“加速”之意，故選D。s tale is something of a microcosm(縮影) of our age of increasing rudeness”可知作者描述這個(gè)時(shí)代越來(lái)越粗魯；再根據(jù)第四段中的“Studies have shown that rudeness spreads quickly, almost like the mon cold. ”研究表明，粗魯行為傳播迅速，就像普通感冒一樣。 （2）考查句義猜測(cè)?？赏瞥觯髡哒J(rèn)為溫斯頓的做法不正確。根據(jù)第五段中的“Winston did shine a spotlight on the woman39。 eyes.【答案】 （1）D（2）D（3）B（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文，作者通過(guò)溫斯特對(duì)打電話這位粗魯?shù)呐科毓庠诿襟w上的不當(dāng)行為，提出了我們要用禮貌而巧妙的方式指出來(lái)生活中粗魯?shù)男袨?。Rude people can39。Rudeness and manners can hardly coexist in civilized society.C.Pay them back by doing equally disturbing things.（4）Which of the following statement is true about the last paragraph?
