13、甘肅重點中學(xué)協(xié)作體高三第一次聯(lián)考)In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh(法老) treated the message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off. Shades of that spirit spread over today’s

14、conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing.

16、minutes ago.” Dreams of head-cutting! It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered(傳遞).

Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh，that’s all right.
