[单项选择]Two weeks ago I had to go to the train station because I was taking a trip to Boston. I decided to take a taxi to the station. There is a bus to the station, but I had a lot of luggage and was in a hurry, so I chose a taxi.
I heard the horn(喇叭)of the taxi and hurried out of the house. Excited about my trip, I told the taxi driver I was in a hurry because I had a ticket for a train in only 20 minutes. But I soon began to worry as we hurried through the crowded streets. He drove too fast! We drove across the intersections(十字路口)without stopping for the red lights. We did not stay in our lane, but drove down the middle of the streets. As we turned at the corners, the fast movement of the taxi pushed me into its door. In ten minutes we reached the train station, but I never want to hurry that much again.
I took a train to Boston two weeks ago.
A. Right.

The effect was not pretty. Some of the bubbles were too big to be beautiful, and the blower was always jumping into them or out of them, or playing some sort of unattractive trick with them. It was, if anything, a rather repulsive sight. Humor is a little like that: it won’t stand much blowing up, and it won’t stand much poking. It has a certain fragility, an evasiveness,
A. they give vent to their sorrows in a laughable way
B. they have much trouble in their life and they are melancholy
C. they are more sensible of the sadness of life and they endure and express the pain cheerfully
