The humorous story is strictly a work of art--high and delicate (精美的) art--and only an artist can tell it; But no art is necessary in telling the comic and witty stories; anybody can do it. The art of telling a humorous story--I mean by word of mouth, not print--was created in America, and has remained at home.
The humorous story is told seriously; the teller does his best to hide the fact that he himself even suspects that there is anything funny about it; but the teller of the comic story tells you beforehand that it is one of the funniest things he has ever heard, then tells it with eager delight, and is the first person to laugh.
When he gets through, and sometimes, if he has had good success, he is so glad and happy that he will repeat the point of it and glance around from face to face, collecting applause (喝彩), and then repeat it again.
Which story takes the longest to tell? ()
A.The humorous story.
B.The witty story.
C.The comic story.
D.All three take the same amount of time.
"That was inslavery time", says Charlie Smith in one interview. "They sold the colored people. And they were bringing them from Africa. They brought me from Africa. I was a child". The Library of Congress released the collection of recordings, Voices from the Days of Slavey, in January. The recorrdings were made between 1932 and 1975. Speaking at least 60 years after their emancipation(解放), the story teller discuss their experiences as slaves.
They also tell about their lives as free men and women.
Isom Moseley was just a boy at the time of emancipation, but he recalls that things were slow to change. "It was a year before the folks knowed they was free", he says.
Michael Taft, the head of the library's archive of folk culture, says the recordings reveal something that written stores cannot. "The power of hearing someone speak is so much greater than reading something from the page", Taft says. "It's how something is said—the dialect, the low pitches, the pauses—that helps tell the story".

Child and adolescent psychiatrists(精神病学家) recommend that the child be told about the adoption by the adoptive parents. Children should be told about their adoption in a way that they can understand.
There are two different views on when a child should be told about the adoption. Many experts believe the child should be told at earliest age possible. This approach provides the child an early opportunity to accept and integrate the concept of being "adopted". Other experts believe that telling a child too early may confuse the young child who can't really understand the event. These experts advise waiting until the child is older.
In either case, children should learn of their adoption from the adoptive parents. This helps give the message that adoption is good and that the child can trust the parents. If the child first learns about the adoption intentionally or accidentally from someone other than parents, the child may feel angry and mistrust towards the parents, and may view the adoption as bad or shameful because it was kept a secret.
Adopted children will want to talk about adoption and parents should encourage this process. Several excellent children's story books are available in bookstores which help parents tell the child being adopted.
Parents who have an adopted child want to know ______.
A.how to hide the fact that he or she is adopted
B.when the child was born exactly
C.whether they should tell the child that he or she is adopted
D.if the child has certain disease
