I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a big company. I told him honestly that the principal reason that I was interviewing with them was my need to keep my family in Boston. My wife had recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some pain for my 16-year-old daughter and me. It was important to me to keep her present high school.
Bruce, the interviewer, was politely kind, but he didn't search any further. He acknowledged(承認) my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of interviews, Bruce took me to lunch with another manager. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had 3 children. I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had and it was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a loved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, should I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call. Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help.
From that one act of kindness, when he had no idea if we could ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of life's greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview process into an act of earing and supporting for another person in a time of extreme need.
According to the passage, the interviewer, Bruce, was very .
A. generous B. kind C. happy D. mean
The underlined word "principal" in the first paragraph probably means .
A. main B. unimportant C. necessary D. possible
We can infer from this passage that .
A. the writer didn't get the job in the company
B. Bruce made the writer pass the interview
C. another manager also lost his wife
D. the business interview was cold
Which of the following statement is NOT true?
A. The writer's daughter was studying in Boston at that time.
B. Both the writer and the interviewer experienced the same pain.
C. Bruce was a senior manager of a big firm.
D. Bruce wanted to make Mends with him because he gave him his business card and home phone number.

Too cold for recess? School policies vary as much as temps
When is it too cold for schoolchildren to go outside for recess（課間休息）? The answer varies widely based on where a school is located and what the kids are used to.
Consider: One northern Minnesota school says it has to be 15 below zero before kids are kept inside. But in areas along the East Coast, temperatures below 35 to 40 degrees could keep kids inside. Canceling recess because of the cold is no small issue considering that much of the USA is trembling through what may be its coldest winter in a generation, according to AccuWeather.
There is no national temperature standard for when to keep kids inside during the winter months, the U.S. Department of Education says. Decisions are made at the local level, either by principals or school districts.
Consequently, policies are all over the map:
?? In International Falls, Minn., the self-described "Icebox of the Nation," where the average high temperature in January is 13 degrees, Falls Elementary School Principal Jerry Hilfer says, "if it's 15 below (or warmer), they go out, no matter what." "At 20 below, it gets iffy," he adds.
?? In Wicomico County, Md., principals typically keep children indoors when temperatures drop below freezing, or if it's raining or snowing, says Susan Jones, the school system's director of elementary education.
"That's the bottom line," says Curtis Twilley, principal of Pemberton Elementary School in Salisbury, Md. Twilley says students get little exercise when recess stays indoors. At Pemberton Elementary, the students will typically play board games or computer games in a classroom because the school's gym is occupied with other classes, he says.
?? For schools in Marquette, Mich., which averages about 12 feet of snow per season, school officials acknowledge students are probably a little more prepared than those in some more mild climates.
Which of the following is not true according to the passage_________.
A. No national temperature standard is made for when to keep kids inside during the winter months.
B. Susan Jones insists students get little exercise when recess stays indoors.
C. In Wicomico County, children are kept indoors when temperatures dip below freezing.
D. Mich has about 12 feet of snow per season on average.
Which place calls itself Box of Ice?
Wicomico County B. Marquette C.Salisbury D. Minn
Considering_______, canceling recess In USA because of the cold is a big issue.
A. different schools have different principles.
B. much of the USA has very cold winter.
C. physical activity can boost student performance.
D. decisions are made at the local level,
The underlined word iffy means _______.
A. uncertain B. surprising C. serious D. worse
What will be talked about next?
A. More school policies
B. The reasons why school policies vary.
C. Measures to improve the situation.
D. Necessities to improve the situation
