Three travelers, Allan, Carl and Paul were sitting on the chairs in a train station. They were waiting for a train that was very late.
To pass the time, they began talking to each other.
At first, they talked about the weather and their work. Then Paul said, "Tell me—what would you most like to do if your doctor tell you that you have only three months to live?"
The other two men thought about this for a while, then Carl spoke.
“Well,” he said, “if I have only three months to live, I’ll take all my money out of the bank and go to foreign countries for holidays with my best friend, Erik. I'd like to travel to the places in the world as many as possible. And I'll stay at the best hotels and then eat the best food. I think I'll have a wonderful time.”
“That's very interesting.” Paul said.
With these words, he turned to the other man, saying, “And what about you?”
“I'll tell you a secret,” Allan said. “I always want to be a racing driver. So if I have only three months to live, the first thing I'd like to do is to sell my house. With the money I’ll buy the fastest car in the world. Maybe I can enter all the big motor races.”
Then he laughed, "I might even end up (以……而告终) world champion.”
“Now it's your turn,” Allan went on, “If your doctor tell you the bad news, what would you most like to do?”
“Oh,” said Paul with a smile. “I’ll go and see another doctor.”

Rubber Fish
My friend and I were sitting on our beach chairs while watching our girls playing in the surf on that summer morning. About 50 yards from us, a man--- maybe in his late 50s—was fishing with big poles(鱼竿).
After running for a while, the girls reached him and watched him. He smiled at them. They ran back to us—all except my three-year-old Alice. Instead, she sat down next to the man.
“Alice! Come here! Play with your friends!” I said, very worried that my speeches about not talking to strangers weren’t working. Hearing me, Alice ran over to me. Then she looked me in the eye, “I want to be with the man.” She ran back, sat down next to him again, and started digging.
Every few seconds I watched back to Alice to make sure she was safe. Just a man fishing. A little girl sitting.
In the second, Alice had started talking. Her mouth was moving. She was probably telling the man where we lived and how her father was away on business and how her mother sometimes let her ride bikes with her brother in the driveway alone. He nodded, then laughed.
A few seconds later, she ran back to us, waving something very shiny and slimy. “Look, Mommy! A toy fish!” It was a yellow rubber toy fish, which must have been what he was using for bait(鱼饵). And he’d given it to Alice. The three other girls all reached for the fish. Alice looked at me for help, then at the man, then back to me.
“My friend gave me that fish!” She said. Tears were fast falling. Just as I didn’t know how to solve the problem, suddenly, there he was: the man, standing right next to us. He was holding three more rubber fish. He handed them to each of the girls.“ Thank you,” the girls said, with their face shining like the sun. There is evil(罪恶)...but there is also the lesson for mothers to learn that only three-year-old could teach them. The man waved at us and walked back to his poles.
1.The writer began to feel worried when______.
A.Alice accepted a gift B.Alice sat near the man
C.the girls played in the surf D.the girls watched the man fishing
2.What does Alice think of the man?
A.He is her friend. B.He is interesting.
C.He is her mother’s friend. D.He is a bad man.
3.From the passage, we can infer(推断)that the writer often______.
A.watches others fish B.meets some strange things
C.goes to the beach with her kids D.tells her kids not to talk to strangers
