An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them in the cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits (短路) and fire during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or the wall so that rescuers (营救人员) can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.
1. The purpose of the passage is to tell readers _________.
A. what to do in earthquakes B. how to prevent earthquakes
C. the damage caused by earthquakes D. the rescue work after earthquakes
2. The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_________”.
A. Easily found B. Expensive
C. Easily broken D. Heavy
3. During the earthquake, people are advised to _________.
A. take shelter under a tree B. drive to a safe place quickly
C. go out of the building at once D. turn off electricity and gas immediately
B
In 2015, Chennai was destroyed by one of the worst floods in over a century, leaving thousands without food, water and supplies. During the flood, many heroes arose, one of whom was Santosh, a young man who owned a take-out restaurant in Chennai.
When the first flood hit in November, he got a call from a company called Naga Rava. The company asked him to prepare 5,000 packets of food and give them to the flood victims. He, with his partners, took the order, cooked for 14 hours and delivered (递送) them. But that night, as they sat together discussing the event of the day, they actually felt ashamed (羞愧). “Here was a man not even from Chennai and he was going out of his way to help the affected people. We, while living here, had not really done anything ourselves for our own people,” said Santosh later.
He then began the groundwork for a collection to help cook more dishes. Little did he know that the November flood was just the beginning, and the real show was about to begin. The December flood affected them all. His own house got flooded and his family was trapped on the second floor. They lost phone connection and electricity. In spite of this, Santosh went back out into the flood, creating a kitchen and preparing food all by himself for the victims. He did not sleep for four days, taking a one-hour break every day as he kept on cooking. As word got out about this man’s effort, others stepped out to join him. From children to the elderly, strangers came to help him in cooking, packing and transporting food. Up to 300 volunteers worked together to make it all happen. By the time the fourth day finally came to an end, Santosh and his team had prepared 170,000 food boxes and delivered them to people in need.
4. What inspired Santosh to help the affected people
A. A call for help.
B. His cooking skills.
C. An act of kindness of a stranger.
D. The encouragement from his partners.
5. What does “the real show” in the third paragraph refer to
A. The help and support. B. The severer flood.
C. Santosh’s family suffering. D. Santosh’s cooking more food.
6. Which of the following can best describe Santosh
A. Energetic and helpful. B. Determined and clever.
C. Selfless and caring. D. Kind and wise.
7. What is the best title for the text
A. Many Hands Make Light Work
B. Kindness Is Its Own Reward
C. Major Floods Brought Challenges To People
D. A Man Cooked 170,000 Meals For The Affected
C
On the day the tornado hit, there was no indication that severe weather was on its way — the sky was blue and the sun bad been out. The first alert my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some scrolling text on the TV Jimmy was watching. He ran upstairs to find me in our third-floor bedroom, and we changed the channel from the presidential primary debate I had been watching to our local Pensacola, Florida, station.
No sooner had we found coverage of the tornado than it was on top of us. It was the loudest thing I have ever heard. The bones of the house shook, and the power went out. The wind began to roar through the house, most likely through blown-out windows and the door to our garage. We had three flights of steps to navigate to get to the relative safety of the first floor, because the cupboard down there is underneath a brick staircase.
I didn’t know how or if we would make it down the steps. It felt as if there were no floor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet. I tried to move forward, but this intense pressure held me in place.
As we reached the last flight of steps, our front door blew out. Pieces of glass that looked like crushed ice flew everywhere. Suddenly, a three-foot-long tree branch crashed into the door frame. It flew over our heads, missing us by inches. Had we been one step up, it would have hit us.
By the time I reached the cupboard, the tornado had been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me down to the cupboard floor, but he couldn’t get inside himself because of the wind. I held Jimmy’s arm and tried to bring Jimmy with it. My knees were full of glass, but at that moment, I felt no pain. If I had let go, Jimmy would have flown right out the back of the house and into the bay.
All of a sudden, Jimmy lifted off his feet like people in tornadoes do in the movies. I thought he was gone. And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet. In those first quiet moments, I couldn’t believe it was over. Jimmy said he’d go outside to check. “No,” I said. “Don’t leave me. Don’t leave me.”
Our neighbor says the storm lasted four minutes. In that time, four of the twelve town houses in our unit were completely destroyed. Of the houses left standing,ours suffered the most damage. Amazingly, none of us were severely injured.
8. How is the text organized
A. In order of time. B. In order of frequency.
C. In order of preference. D. In order of importance.
9. Which of the following sentences is NOT true about the passage
A. There was not any symbol of the tornado’s coming.
B. A three-foot-long tree branch hit the couple.
C. Both of the couple couldn’t get into the cupboard floor.
D. Jimmy didn’t fly right out the back of the house.
10. Why didn’t the wife feel pain
A. Because she didn’t get any hurt when the storm hit.
B. Because she was too scared to feel pain.
C. Because she devoted all her strength to holding on to her husband.
D. Because she had reached the cupboard and she was safe.
11. The author wrote the passage to _________.
A. share with us her experience of surviving a tornado
B. warn us of the danger caused by tornadoes
C. show us how to fight against a tornado
D. tell us how to protect us from dangerous tornadoes
D
As people across the globe stay home to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus (新冠病毒), the air has cleaned up, although temporarily. Smog stopped choking New Delhi, one of the most polluted cities in the world, and India’s getting views of sights not seen in decades.
Nitrogen dioxide (二氧化氮) pollution in the northeastern United States is down 30%. Rome air pollution levels from mid-March to mid-April were down 49% from a year ago. Stars seem more visible at night.
People are also noticing animals in places and at times they don’t usually. Wolves have wandered along downtown Chicago’s Michigan Avenue and near San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge. A lion walked leisurely on the streets of Santiago, Chile. Goats took over a town in Wales. In India, already daring wildlife has become bolder with hungry monkeys entering homes and opening refrigerators to look for food.
When people stay home, Earth becomes cleaner and wilder.
“It is giving us this quite extraordinary insight into just how much of a mess we humans are making of our beautiful planet,” says conservation scientist Stuart Pimm of Duke University. “This is giving us an opportunity to magically see how much better it can be.”
Chris Field, director of the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, gathered scientists to assess the ecological changes happening with so much of humanity without leaving home. Scientists, stuck at home like the rest of us, say they are eager to explore unexpected changes in weeds, insects, weather patterns, noise, and light pollution. Italy’s government is working on an ocean adventure to explore sea changes from the lack of people.
“In many ways we destroyed the Earth system violently and now we see what Earth’s response is,” Mr. Field says.
12. As the novel coronavirus has prevented people from going out, _________.
A. wars has ended temporarily B. the globe has become warmer
C. the atmosphere has turned better D. the carbon dioxide has decreased
13. What has happened to the town in Wales due to the global disease
A. Wolves wandered along its street. B. Lions ran into residents’ houses.
C. Monkeys stole food in the fridge. D. Goats appeared all over the town.
14. What does Stuart Pimm say
A. He is eager to explore unexpected changes in insects.
B. He is sorry for not being able to cope with the disease.
C. The disease offers us a chance to see how better the earth can be.
D. The ecological changes show we should stay home all the time.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
A. As the Disease Spread, the World Stops All of a Sudden
B. As People Stay Home, the Earth Turns Wilder and Cleaner
C. The More Humans Do, the Worse the Globe Becomes
D. The Sooner We Stop Developing the Earth, the Better It Will Be
五、七选五（每小题2分，共10分）
I work as a meteorologist (气象学家) in Tampa, Florida. It’s my job to follow hurricanes (飓风) and provide information about them to scientists.
I was working for the National Meteorological Office in Bracknell, near London, in the autumn of 1995, and I saw a documentary called Stormchasers with my family. 1 Two months later I came across an ad for a meteorologist to work in Florida. I was interviewed over the phone, moved to the US, and started to work here in Tampa in May 1996.
2 I have been all over the world hunting hurricanes. It’s exciting to end up in different cities and different countries day after day. If you are a meteorologist, you have to love flying. I also love working with top scientists. 3 For me, it’s like a classroom in the sky.
People often ask me what an average day is like. In fact, there’s no such thing as an average day in my job! 4 We often take off at a moment’s notice to hunt storms.
Next, I would like to join a space program and be the first meteorologist in space.
5 There aren’t any hurricanes!
If you also want to be a meteorologist, study math and science and get a degree in meteorology. I have taken the hurricane hunter path, but you could do research.
A. I have learned so much from them.
B. What I like most about my job is the travel.
C. It’s a wonderful job and the pay is pretty good.
D. It all depends on the weather, and you can’t control that.

F. Because of the job, I’m away from my family who all live in the UK.

I walked into a restaurant and sat down at a table. I picked up a menu, trying to decide what to eat. “Excuse me. Is your name Roger ” asked someone, who touched me on the shoulder. I looked up and turned to the side to see a rather nice looking woman standing before me. “Yes,” I replied, looking rather confused as I had never seen the woman before.
“My name is Barbara and my husband is Tony. He is from George High School,” she said, pointing to a distant table near the door. I looked in the direction but I did not recognize the man who was sitting alone at the table, with a wheelchair around the corner.
“I’m really sorry. The name doesn’t ring a bell,” I said.
She turned and walked back to her table. She and her husband immediately began talking and once in a while looked directly at me.
I sat there, thinking hard and tried to remember who this Tony guy was. “I must know him,” I thought to myself. “He recognizes me for some reason.” I picked up my coffee and took a sip. All of a sudden, it came to me like a flash lightning.
“Tony THE BULLY (校园霸凌者). The bully of my seventh grade geography class,” I said to myself. I turned around and faced in his direction.
How many times that guy had made fun of my big ears in front of girls How many times he called me “four-eyed toad” How many times he pushed me up against the lockers just to make himself look like a big man to all the other students
He raised his hand and waved at me. I smiled, returned the wave and turned back and began to eat my breakfast.
“Goodness. He’s so thin now. Not the big guy that I remembered,” I thought to myself.

Dear Peter,
I’m sorry to hear that you are so addicted to social media that your normal life is out of balance.
Here are some suggestions. Firstly, it is a good idea to develop a new hobby such as hiking or painting, which is related to nature and can help you a lot. Secondly, you can go to visit your friends or stay with your family to communicate with them face to face rather than online.
Hope the advice will be of help to you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
All of a sudden I heard the sound of dishes breaking so I turned around to see what had happened. Tony had accidentally hit several plates and knocked them off the table. Tony and his wife looked very embarrassed. They apologized over and over again towards the waitress. They looked so helpless that I got up and went over. I helped his wife pick up the broken dishes from the ground. To my great surprise, I found from the waist down, Tony had no motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless.
Paragraph 2:
“Could you help me get into the wheelchair ” asked Tony. “No problem,” I said. I reached around his waist and carefully raised him up into the wheelchair. “You remember, don’t you ” he said, looking directly into my eyes. “Yes, I do,” I smiled. “I guess you’re thinking ‘What goes around comes around’,” he said softly. “No, never, Tony,” I said. I found tears in his eyes. I handed my name card to him. “Give me a call sometimes.We’ll do lunch,” I told him. We both laughed.

A
An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items like those made of glass are easily broken and should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them in the cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits (短路) and fire during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or the wall so that rescuers (营救人员) can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if one is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.
1. The purpose of the passage is to tell readers _________.
A. what to do in earthquakes B. how to prevent earthquakes
C. the damage caused by earthquakes D. the rescue work after earthquakes
2. The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_________”.
A. Easily found B. Expensive
C. Easily broken D. Heavy
3. During the earthquake, people are advised to _________.
A. take shelter under a tree B. drive to a safe place quickly
C. go out of the building at once D. turn off electricity and gas immediately

In 2015, Chennai was destroyed by one of the worst floods in over a century, leaving thousands without food, water and supplies. During the flood, many heroes arose, one of whom was Santosh, a young man who owned a take-out restaurant in Chennai.
When the first flood hit in November, he got a call from a company called Naga Rava. The company asked him to prepare 5,000 packets of food and give them to the flood victims. He, with his partners, took the order, cooked for 14 hours and delivered (递送) them. But that night, as they sat together discussing the event of the day, they actually felt ashamed (羞愧). “Here was a man not even from Chennai and he was going out of his way to help the affected people. We, while living here, had not really done anything ourselves for our own people,” said Santosh later.
He then began the groundwork for a collection to help cook more dishes. Little did he know that the November flood was just the beginning, and the real show was about to begin. The December flood affected them all. His own house got flooded and his family was trapped on the second floor. They lost phone connection and electricity. In spite of this, Santosh went back out into the flood, creating a kitchen and preparing food all by himself for the victims. He did not sleep for four days, taking a one-hour break every day as he kept on cooking. As word got out about this man’s effort, others stepped out to join him. From children to the elderly, strangers came to help him in cooking, packing and transporting food. Up to 300 volunteers worked together to make it all happen. By the time the fourth day finally came to an end, Santosh and his team had prepared 170,000 food boxes and delivered them to people in need.
4. What inspired Santosh to help the affected people
A. A call for help.
B. His cooking skills.
C. An act of kindness of a stranger.
D. The encouragement from his partners.
5. What does “the real show” in the third paragraph refer to
A. The help and support. B. The severer flood.
C. Santosh’s family suffering. D. Santosh’s cooking more food.
6. Which of the following can best describe Santosh

C. Selfless and caring. D. Kind and wise.
7. What is the best title for the text

D. A Man Cooked 170,000 Meals For The Affected

On the day the tornado hit, there was no indication that severe weather was on its way — the sky was blue and the sun bad been out. The first alert my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some scrolling text on the TV Jimmy was watching. He ran upstairs to find me in our third-floor bedroom, and we changed the channel from the presidential primary debate I had been watching to our local Pensacola, Florida, station.
No sooner had we found coverage of the tornado than it was on top of us. It was the loudest thing I have ever heard. The bones of the house shook, and the power went out. The wind began to roar through the house, most likely through blown-out windows and the door to our garage. We had three flights of steps to navigate to get to the relative safety of the first floor, because the cupboard down there is underneath a brick staircase.
I didn’t know how or if we would make it down the steps. It felt as if there were no floor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet. I tried to move forward, but this intense pressure held me in place.
As we reached the last flight of steps, our front door blew out. Pieces of glass that looked like crushed ice flew everywhere. Suddenly, a three-foot-long tree branch crashed into the door frame. It flew over our heads, missing us by inches. Had we been one step up, it would have hit us.
By the time I reached the cupboard, the tornado had been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me down to the cupboard floor, but he couldn’t get inside himself because of the wind. I held Jimmy’s arm and tried to bring Jimmy with it. My knees were full of glass, but at that moment, I felt no pain. If I had let go, Jimmy would have flown right out the back of the house and into the bay.
All of a sudden, Jimmy lifted off his feet like people in tornadoes do in the movies. I thought he was gone. And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet. In those first quiet moments, I couldn’t believe it was over. Jimmy said he’d go outside to check. “No,” I said. “Don’t leave me. Don’t leave me.”
Our neighbor says the storm lasted four minutes. In that time, four of the twelve town houses in our unit were completely destroyed. Of the houses left standing,ours suffered the most damage. Amazingly, none of us were severely injured.
8. How is the text organized
A. In order of time. B. In order of frequency.
C. In order of preference. D. In order of importance.
9. Which of the following sentences is NOT true about the passage
A. There was not any symbol of the tornado’s coming.
B. A three-foot-long tree branch hit the couple.
C. Both of the couple couldn’t get into the cupboard floor.
D. Jimmy didn’t fly right out the back of the house.
10. Why didn’t the wife feel pain
A. Because she didn’t get any hurt when the storm hit.
B. Because she was too scared to feel pain.
C. Because she devoted all her strength to holding on to her husband.
D. Because she had reached the cupboard and she was safe.
11. The author wrote the passage to _________.
A. share with us her experience of surviving a tornado
B. warn us of the danger caused by tornadoes
C. show us how to fight against a tornado
D. tell us how to protect us from dangerous tornadoes
D
As people across the globe stay home to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus (新冠病毒), the air has cleaned up, although temporarily. Smog stopped choking New Delhi, one of the most polluted cities in the world, and India’s getting views of sights not seen in decades.
Nitrogen dioxide (二氧化氮) pollution in the northeastern United States is down 30%. Rome air pollution levels from mid-March to mid-April were down 49% from a year ago. Stars seem more visible at night.
People are also noticing animals in places and at times they don’t usually. Wolves have wandered along downtown Chicago’s Michigan Avenue and near San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge. A lion walked leisurely on the streets of Santiago, Chile. Goats took over a town in Wales. In India, already daring wildlife has become bolder with hungry monkeys entering homes and opening refrigerators to look for food.
When people stay home, Earth becomes cleaner and wilder.
“It is giving us this quite extraordinary insight into just how much of a mess we humans are making of our beautiful planet,” says conservation scientist Stuart Pimm of Duke University. “This is giving us an opportunity to magically see how much better it can be.”
Chris Field, director of the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, gathered scientists to assess the ecological changes happening with so much of humanity without leaving home. Scientists, stuck at home like the rest of us, say they are eager to explore unexpected changes in weeds, insects, weather patterns, noise, and light pollution. Italy’s government is working on an ocean adventure to explore sea changes from the lack of people.
“In many ways we destroyed the Earth system violently and now we see what Earth’s response is,” Mr. Field says.
12. As the novel coronavirus has prevented people from going out, _________.
A. wars has ended temporarily B. the globe has become warmer
C. the atmosphere has turned better D. the carbon dioxide has decreased
13. What has happened to the town in Wales due to the global disease
A. Wolves wandered along its street. B. Lions ran into residents’ houses.
C. Monkeys stole food in the fridge. D. Goats appeared all over the town.
14. What does Stuart Pimm say
A. He is eager to explore unexpected changes in insects.
B. He is sorry for not being able to cope with the disease.
C. The disease offers us a chance to see how better the earth can be.
D. The ecological changes show we should stay home all the time.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
A. As the Disease Spread, the World Stops All of a Sudden
B. As People Stay Home, the Earth Turns Wilder and Cleaner
C. The More Humans Do, the Worse the Globe Becomes
D. The Sooner We Stop Developing the Earth, the Better It Will Be
五、七选五（每小题2分，共10分）
I work as a meteorologist (气象学家) in Tampa, Florida. It’s my job to follow hurricanes (飓风) and provide information about them to scientists.
I was working for the National Meteorological Office in Bracknell, near London, in the autumn of 1995, and I saw a documentary called Stormchasers with my family. 1 Two months later I came across an ad for a meteorologist to work in Florida. I was interviewed over the phone, moved to the US, and started to work here in Tampa in May 1996.
2 I have been all over the world hunting hurricanes. It’s exciting to end up in different cities and different countries day after day. If you are a meteorologist, you have to love flying. I also love working with top scientists. 3 For me, it’s like a classroom in the sky.
People often ask me what an average day is like. In fact, there’s no such thing as an average day in my job! 4 We often take off at a moment’s notice to hunt storms.
Next, I would like to join a space program and be the first meteorologist in space.
5 There aren’t any hurricanes!
If you also want to be a meteorologist, study math and science and get a degree in meteorology. I have taken the hurricane hunter path, but you could do research.
A. I have learned so much from them.
B. What I like most about my job is the travel.
C. It’s a wonderful job and the pay is pretty good.
D. It all depends on the weather, and you can’t control that.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
I walked into a restaurant and sat down at a table. I picked up a menu, trying to decide what to eat. “Excuse me. Is your name Roger ” asked someone, who touched me on the shoulder. I looked up and turned to the side to see a rather nice looking woman standing before me. “Yes,” I replied, looking rather confused as I had never seen the woman before.
“My name is Barbara and my husband is Tony. He is from George High School,” she said, pointing to a distant table near the door. I looked in the direction but I did not recognize the man who was sitting alone at the table, with a wheelchair around the corner.
“I’m really sorry. The name doesn’t ring a bell,” I said.
She turned and walked back to her table. She and her husband immediately began talking and once in a while looked directly at me.
I sat there, thinking hard and tried to remember who this Tony guy was. “I must know him,” I thought to myself. “He recognizes me for some reason.” I picked up my coffee and took a sip. All of a sudden, it came to me like a flash lightning.
“Tony THE BULLY (校园霸凌者). The bully of my seventh grade geography class,” I said to myself. I turned around and faced in his direction.
How many times that guy had made fun of my big ears in front of girls How many times he called me “four-eyed toad” How many times he pushed me up against the lockers just to make himself look like a big man to all the other students
He raised his hand and waved at me. I smiled, returned the wave and turned back and began to eat my breakfast.
“Goodness. He’s so thin now. Not the big guy that I remembered,” I thought to myself.

第一节 应用文写作
参考范文：
Dear Peter,
I’m sorry to hear that you are so addicted to social media that your normal life is out of balance.
Here are some suggestions. Firstly, it is a good idea to develop a new hobby such as hiking or painting, which is related to nature and can help you a lot. Secondly, you can go to visit your friends or stay with your family to communicate with them face to face rather than online.
Hope the advice will be of help to you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节 读后续写
参考范文：
Paragraph 1:
All of a sudden I heard the sound of dishes breaking so I turned around to see what had happened. Tony had accidentally hit several plates and knocked them off the table. Tony and his wife looked very embarrassed. They apologized over and over again towards the waitress. They looked so helpless that I got up and went over. I helped his wife pick up the broken dishes from the ground. To my great surprise, I found from the waist down, Tony had no motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless.
Paragraph 2:
“Could you help me get into the wheelchair ” asked Tony. “No problem,” I said. I reached around his waist and carefully raised him up into the wheelchair. “You remember, don’t you ” he said, looking directly into my eyes. “Yes, I do,” I smiled. “I guess you’re thinking ‘What goes around comes around’,” he said softly. “No, never, Tony,” I said. I found tears in his eyes. I handed my name card to him. “Give me a call sometimes.We’ll do lunch,” I told him. We both laughed.
