初中英語(yǔ)閱讀題:嗓音的優(yōu)點(diǎn)

　　Wherever I drove my old car over 55 miles per hour ,it vibrated terribly, so I decided to sell it. My first customer wanted to buy the car, and I battled with my conscience over whether or not to tell him of the vehicle's problem. Finally I did the right thing. Expecting him to drop the deal, I was surprised by his reply.

　　"That's okay," he said. "I'm buying this car for my daughter. If she complains about a vibration, I'll know she's driving too fast. "

　　100.嗓音的優(yōu)點(diǎn)

　　每當(dāng)我駕駛我那輛舊車(chē)時(shí)速超過(guò)55英里時(shí)，它就劇烈地震動(dòng)起來(lái)，所以我決定賣(mài)掉它。我的第一位買(mǎi)主想買(mǎi)這輛車(chē)。圍繞是否告訴他這輛車(chē)的問(wèn)題，我經(jīng)歷了一番與良心的較量。終于我做對(duì)了。

　　我想他會(huì)放棄這個(gè)交易，卻對(duì)他的回答吃了一驚。

　　“那沒(méi)什么，”他說(shuō)，“我是給我女兒買(mǎi)這車(chē)的。如果她抱怨震動(dòng)的話(huà)，那我就知道她開(kāi)得太快了。”
