Do you like chocolate? Maybe most people do. A box of it can be a great gift. Buy one for a friend and give it as a surprise. See how happy that person gets.

Say you just got a box of chocolate. Which piece do you pick first? A man has studied people’s choices. He says they tell something about the person. Did you choose a round piece? You are a person who likes to party. Did you choose an oval shape? You are a person who likes to make things. Picking a square shape shows something else. The person is honest and truthful. You can depend on him or her.

What kind of chocolate do you pick? Maybe you like milk chocolate. This shows you have warm feelings about the past. Dark chocolate means something else. A person who chooses it looks toward the future. What about white chocolate? Would you choose it? If so, you may find it hard to make up your mind. Some people like chocolate with nuts.

科目：高中英語 來源：2016屆黑龍江齊齊哈爾實驗中學高三上期中英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Recently, I learned firsthand why it’s a bad idea to judge people prematurely (過早地).

I’m a nursing supervisor, and my job is to evaluate workers’ performances at the hospital.

Kenny was a new employee. After weeks’ probation (試用), I had to admit that he was clean, punctual and efficient.

But he had this self-assured and energetic presence. He was a large man, both physically and socially — he was independent and strong. I worried that our hospital, which demanded teamwork, was not right for such a personality.

We had a patient named Mary. At 94 years old, Mary was weak. She had outlived her husband and sisters.

Mary had an obsessive (強迫性的) belief that someone had taken her purse. She searched for it all the time. Unless tied to her wheelchair, she would go through the door onto the street mindlessly searching and never giving up. She was often sitting in her wheelchair in the hallway, where she stopped everyone who came near.

“Can you lend me a comb?” she would ask. “I’ve lost mine. It was in my red purse. Where is my purse?”

Every day it was the same. We all knew Mary didn’t have a purse, but we would answer: “Sure, if I see your purse I’ll bring it back.”

One afternoon, I saw Kenny walking down the hall with a grocery bag. He walked toward Mary in her wheelchair. He pulled out a red purse.

Mary’s old hands flew up to her face in a gesture of wonder and joy, and then flew out hungrily like a starved child taking bread. Mary grabbed the red purse. She held it for a moment, and then pressed it to her breast, rocking it like a baby.

Kenny leaned over, unzipped the purse open and showed Mary a comb inside. Tears of joy poured down Mary’s face.

Instead of paying lip service like the rest of us, Kenny had made Mary’s problem his problem. I had been wrong about Kenny.

1.The author was worried that Kenny would not be fit for his job because ________.

A. he had no working experience in medicine

B. he had a strong, confident and independent character

C. his performance during the probation didn’t meet their standards

D. he was too stubborn and wouldn’t listen to others’ opinions

2.We can learn from the article that Mary ________.

A. didn’t get along well with her husband

B. pretended that she had lost her red purse

C. was very happy when given the purse

D. asked for help in order to be taken home

3.At the end of the story, the author felt ________ about her previous evaluation of Kenny.

A. encouraged B. puzzled C. satisfied D. guilty

4.What kind of message does the author intend to convey?

A. Pay attention to what people do instead of what they say.

B. We should treat older people with patience and kindness.

C. Don’t come to a conclusion too quickly when you don’t know all the facts.

D. We can always find a teacher in another, even when we least expect it.
