Mrs Smith often felt lonely when her husband went to work. The room was small and it took her only half an hour to tidy it. She couldn’t get up early in the morning, so Mr Smith had to prepare breakfast himself. She usually had some bread and milk for lunch and cooked supper for herself and her husband. They had no television. They always went to bed at nine.
It was a winter morning. The sun was shining and it was warmer outside. Mrs Smith sat on the step of a shop, looking at the busy traffic. At that moment a man with a map in his hand was coming to her.
"Excuse me, madam, " said the man. "Could you tell me how to get to the nearest hospital, please?"
Mrs Smith didn’t answer until she looked at him up and down. "He seems to be a farmer," she said to herself. "Let me make fun of him." Then she said, "Lie down in the middle of the street and you’ll soon be sent to a hospital."
"Please show me how to do that, then," said the man.
She has to tell him the way and then she said, "I think you’ve been in the city for the first time. It’s much more beautiful than the fields, isn’t it?"
"Yes, madam," said the farmer with a smile. "But I think it was built on the fields!"

Edgar felt quite excited at the thought of his first swim of the summer. With the sun shining down so strongly, the sea was certain to be warm enough. He walked quickly along the sea --- front towards the steps that led on to the sands. He smiled cheerfully at the people. He had just smiled and waved his hat to an elderly lady when a man with a camera caught his arm and stopped him. Edgar heard a little buzzing noise (“咝”的响声) from the camera.
“Your photo, sir , in bright colour in just one moment if you please,” said the man.
Then the buzzing stopped, and the cameraman handed the photo over, and Edgar saw the bright blue of his shirt half filling the picture.
“Seventy pence, sir, ” the man said. “It’s the bargain of your holiday.” “Seventy pence,” Edgar repeated, “For this photo?”
“They’re normally (正常地) eighty - five, sir, but for one person I make a cut - price offer (出价). It’s the best price you’ll get in Chadwell.”
“You’ll have to make a better offer.” Edgar said. It was a good photo though, he thought, so bright and clear. His hat was held high, and he was smiling happily at the old lady, whose arm and handbag came into a lower corner. He had had no idea that he was being snapped (快照) .He thought he was really quite a good - looking man.
“That’s as good as any studio (照像馆) job that would cost you pounds, ”said the cameraman. “It’s better in a way because it’s so natural. Only seventy pence, sir.”
“I’ve never paid so much for a photo in my life. It isn’t worth that kind of money. It’s not as if I need the thing. Look, I’ll give you twenty - five.”
“No, I can’t do that. Each of these colour photos costs me 50p - that’s the price of the blank frame (像纸) , so you see .”
“No, No, ”Edgar broke in. “You want a profit of forty per cent. Well, I’ll give you your 50p and that’s that.”
“Let me see, then.”The man suddenly took the photo out of Edgar’s hand. “I can’t spend any more time on it with you. It’s 70p or I keep it.”
“Keep it, ”Edgar said. He turned, looked out to sea, then walked quickly away.
66. Edgar smiled and waved his hat to the lady because _____.
A. she was his neighbour
B. she was taking a picture of him
C. he wanted the photo to be funny
