Q: Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it. It is true. People usually begin their talks with"Isn't it a nice day?" Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like. But they hardly  agree with each other. One man may say,"Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It's going to rain tomorrow."Another man will say,"No, it's going to be fine tomorrow." People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it's going to rain; he won't believe anything else. When friends have a travel, they are sure the weather is going to clear up very quickly. Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says, but he doesn't always tell us what we want, and sometimes he makes mistakes. Still , he probably comes closer to being right than anyone else. Weatherman is a man who   _  . A) reports weather B) can see weather C) can change weather D) can make weather

*Question*
David hated spending money. When he had to buy something in a shop, he always tried his best to knock down the price, even for the cheapest things. If he wanted to buy a bottle of orange, for example, and the shopkeeper asked for $2, David would say, "Make it $1.90 and I'll buy it." Sometimes the shopkeepers agreed to _ their prices a little. "What's ten cents?" they asked themselves. "If it makes this man happy, it won't hurt me very much." In this way David saved a few cents here and a few cents there, and by the end of the year he had saved several hundred dollars. One day he had a very bad toothache and had to go to the dentist. The dentist looked at the tooth and said, "This tooth will have to come out. It's too serious to save." "How much must I pay you to take out a tooth?" David asked. "Forty dollars," the dentist said. "How long will it take you to pull out the tooth?" he asked. "About two minutes," the dentist answered. "Forty dollars for two minutes' work!" he shouted, "That's robbery  ." The dentist smiled. "You're right," she said. "Thank you for telling me. I'll pull your tooth out very slowly. How about if I take half an hour?" David thought that two minutes was   _  . A) too little time to pull out a tooth B) too little time to pay the dentist $40 C) too long to pull out a tooth D) too short for the dentist to finish the operation
