2019-2020年高一英语暑假阅读天天练 第六天One silly question I simply cant stand is “How do you feel?” Usually the question is asked of a man in actiona man on the go, walking along the streets, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? Hell probably say, “Fine, Im all right,” but you have put a bug(小虫子) in his earmaybe now hes not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk, that he overlooked(忽略) that morning. It starts worrying him a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else “How do you feel?” Every question has its time and place.
