It has been said that Lincoln was always ready to join in a laugh at himself. There is one particular story that he always told with great delight. In his early days as a lawyer, Lincoln went from town to town to hear and judge legal(法律的)cases. During one of these trips, he was sitting in a train when a strange man came up to him. The stranger looked at the tall clumsy(笨拙的)lawyer and said that he had something he believed belonging to Lincoln. Lincoln was a bit puzzled. He had never seen the man before. He didn’t see how a total stranger could have something of his. Lincoln asked how this could be. The stranger pulled out a penknife and began to explain. Many years before, he had been given the pocketknife. He had been told to keep it until he was able to find a man uglier than himself.

You’ll ruin our company if you go on like that.” “Oh, no, sir,” answered Mr. Briggs at once, “Before I started work, I looked at the figures(数字) for deaths in this country during the past ten years, and I can tell you that few people die at the age of 95.” 小题1: Before he worked in an insurance company, what was Mr. Briggs?______.A.He was a worker. | B.He was an official. | C.He was a student. | D.He was a businessman. | 小题2:The word “ruin” in the second paragraph means .A.lose | B.break | C.leave | D.destroy | 小题3: Which of the following is true according to the passage?
