24、“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.

Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong.” But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not so sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I have to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone’s at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuse might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s a part of the game of language.

【1】When a person in the United States asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “ ________”.

A．How are you?

B．Fine.

C．I don’t know.

【2】When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “________”.

A．You’re wrong. I disagree.

B．I’m not so sure.

C．I’m sure I disagree.

【3】When a person says “I have to go now. Someone’s at the door.”, the person may be ________.

A．giving an excuse

B．hurting someone’s feeling

C．talking to a person at the door

【4】One of the rules of the game of language is probably ________.

A．“Be polite.”

B．“Don’t disagree with other people.”

C．“Never say exactly what you’re thinking.”

25、   Ray Charles, a black singer and pianist of the USA. He had won 12 Grammy Awards(格莱美奖) and performed at 10, 000 concerts around the world. Many musicians called him simply “The Genius”(天才).

Ray Charles was born into a poor family, without a father. When he was 5 years old, his younger brother died, and around the same time, Charles started to lose his sight. By the age of 7, he was completely blind. He had already been learning the piano for a year, and when he went blind, his mother knew this would be the only way he would make any money in the future. All his life, Charles remembered her saying: “Do it right, or don't do it at all.”

Later he went to a school for blind and deaf children. There the teachers also encouraged him to study music. Sadly, while he was still at school, his mother died. He left school and in the early 1950s Charles organized a group of players. He sang, played the piano and wrote music. He made many classical CDs with famous artists such as Elton John and the Beatles.

In 2003 a film of his life Ray was made. The part of Charles was played by a younger actor and musician called Jamie Foxx. The film director brought Foxx to meet Charles. After they had been playing together for two hours, Charles, then aged 73, jumped up and said, “He's the one. He can do it.” A year later Charles died aged 74. The film of his life has been as popular as his songs and means that the memory of Charles' music will live on.
