themselves.What is the singer complaining about?Do some people care too much for people in general but forget the needs of their closest friends?1.2.Too many people find it all too easy to be cold,to

ChinaBR2_3IIMaugham,W(illiam)Somerset(1874-1965):English author,whose novels and short stories are characterized by great narrative facility,simplicity of style,and a disillusioned and ironic point of view.Maugham was born in Paris and studied medicine at the University of Heidelberg and at Saint Thomass Hospital,London.His partially autobiographical novel Of Human Bondage(1915)is generally acknowledged as his masterpiece and is one of the best realistic English novels of the early 20th century.The Moon and Sixpence(1919)is a story of the conflict between the artist and conventional society,based on the life of the French painter Paul Gauguin;other novels are The Painted Veil(1925),Cakes and Ale(1930),Christmas Holiday(1939),The Hour Before the Dawn(1942),The Razors

South ChinaArticle1_SA Friend in Need For thirty years now I have been studying my fellowmen.I do not know very much about them.I shrug my shoulders when people tell me that their first impressions of a person are always right.I think they must have small insight or great vanity.For my own part I find that the longer I know people the more they puzzle me.These reflections have occurred to me because I read in this mornings paper that Edward Hyde Burton had died at Kobe.He was a merchant and he had been in business in Japan for many years.I knew him very little,but he interested me because once he gave me a great surprise.第19页University of South ChinaArticle2_SUnless I had heard the story from his own lips,I should never have believed that he was capable of such an action.It was more startling because both in appearance and manner he suggested a very definite type.Here if ever was a man all of a piece.He was a tiny little fellow,not muchmore than five feet four in height,and very slender,with white hair,a red face much wrinkled,and blue eyes.I suppose he was about sixty when I knew him.He was always neatly and quietly dressed in accordance with his age and station.第20页University of South ChinaArticle3_S Though his offices were in Kobe,Burton often came down to Yokohama.I happened on one occasion to be spending a few days there,waiting for a ship,and I was introduced to him at the British Club.We played bridge together.He played a good game and a generous one.He did not talk very much,either then or later when we were having drinks,but what he said was sensible.He had a quiet,dry humor.He seemed to be popular at the club and afterwards,when he had gone,they described him as one of the best.It happened that we were both staying at the Grand Hotel and next day he asked me to dine with him.I met his wife,fat,elderly,and smiling,and his two daughters.It was evidently a united and affectionate family.第21页University of South ChinaArticle4_SI think the chief thing that struck me about Burton was his kindliness.There was something very pleasing in his mild blue eyes.His voice was gentle;you could not imagine that he could possibly raise it in anger;his smile was benign.Here was a man who attracted you because you felt in him a real love for his fellows.At the same time he liked his game of cards and his cocktail,he could tell with point a good and spicy story,and in his youth he had been something of an athlete.He was a rich man and he had made every penny himself.I suppose one thing that made you like him was that he was so small and frail;he aroused your instincts of protection.You felt that he could not bear to hurt a fly.第22页University of South ChinaArticle5 One afternoon I was sitting in the lounge of the Grand Hotel when Burton came in and seated himself in the chair next to mine.What do you say to a little drink?He clapped his hands for a boy and ordered two gin fizzes.As the boy brought them a man passed along the street outside and seeing me waved his hand.Do you know Turner?said Burton as I nodded a greeting.Ive met him at the club.Im told hes a remittance man.Yes,I believe he is.We have a good many here.He plays bridge well.第23页University of South ChinaArticle6 They generally do.There was a fellow here last year,oddly enough a namesake of mine,who was the best bridge player I ever met.I suppose you never came across him in London.Lenny Burton he called himself.I believe hed belonged to some very good clubs.No,I dont believe I remember the name.He was quite a remarkable player.He seemed to have an instinct about the cards.It was uncanny.I used to play with him a lot.He was in Kobe for some time.Burton sipped his gin fizz.Its rather a funny story,he said.He wasnt a bad chap.I liked him.He was always well-dressed and smart-looking.第24页University of South ChinaArticle7_SHe was handsome in a way with curly hair and pink-and-white cheeks.Women thought a lot of him.There was no harm in him,you know,he was only wild.Of course he drank too much.Those sort of fellows always do.A bit of money used to come on for him once a quarter and he made a bit more by card-playing.He won a good deal of mine,I know that.Burton gave a kindly chuckle.I knew from my own experience that he could lose money at bridge with a good grace.He stroked his shaven chin with his thin hand;the veins stood out on it and it was almost transparent.第25页University of South ChinaArticle8_S I suppose that is why he came to me when he went broke,that and the fact that he was a namesake of mine.He came to see me in my office one day and asked me for a job.I was rather surprised.He told me that there was no more money coming from home and he wanted to work.I asked him how old he was.“Thirty-five,”he said.“And what have you been doing hitherto?”I asked him.“Well,nothing very much,”he said.I couldnt help laughing.“Im afraid I cant do anything foryou just yet,”I said.“Come back and see me in another thirty-five years,and Ill see what I can do.”第26页University of South ChinaArticle9 He didnt move.He went rather pale.He hesitated for a moment and then he told me that he had had bad luck at cards for some time.He hadnt been willing to stick to bridge,hed been playing poker,and hed got trimmed.He hadnt a penny.Hed pawned everything he had.He couldnt pay his hotel bill and they wouldnt give him any more credit.He was down and out.If he couldnt get something to do hed have to commit suicide.I looked at him for a bit.I could see now that he was all to pieces.Hed been drinking more than usual and he looked fifty.The girls wouldnt have thought so much of him if theyd seen him then.“Well isnt there anything you can do except play cards?”I asked him.第27页University of South ChinaArticle10_S “I can swim,”he said.“Swim!”I could hardly believe my ears;it seemed such an insane answer to give.“I swam for my university.”I got some glimmering of what he was driving at.Ive known too many men who were little tin gods at their university to be impressed by it.“I was a pretty good swimmer myself when I was a young man,”I said.Suddenly I had an idea.Pausing in his story,Burton turned to me.第28页University of South ChinaArticle11 Do you know Kobe?he asked.No,I said,I passed through it once,but I only spent a night there.Then you dont know the Shioya Club.When I was a young man I swam from there round the beacon and landed at the creek of Tarumi.Its over three miles and its rather difficult on account of the currents round the beacon.Well,I told my young namesake about it and I said to him that if hed do it Id give him a job.I could see he was rather taken aback.“You say youre a swimmer,”I said.“Im not in very good condition,”he answered.第29页University of South ChinaArticle12_S I didnt say anything.I shrugged my shoulders.He looked at me for a moment and then he nodded.“All right,”he said.“When do you want me to do it?”I looked at my watch.It was just after ten.“The swim shouldnt take you much over an hour and a quarter.Ill drive round to the creek at half past twelve and meet you.Ill take you back to the club to dress and then well have lunch together.”“Done,”he said.We shook hands.I wished him good luck and he left me.I had a lot of work to do that morning and I only just managed to get to the creek at Tarumi at half past twelve.But I neednt have hurried;he never turned up.第30页University of South ChinaArticle13 Did he funk it at the last moment?I asked.No,he didnt funk it.He started all right.But of course hed ruined his constitution by drink and dissipation.The currents round the beacon were more than he could manage.We didnt get the body for about three days.I didnt say anything for a moment or two.I was a trifle shocked.Then I asked Burton a question.When you made him that offer of a job,did you know hed be drowned?第31页University of South ChinaArticle14_S He gave a little mild chuckle and he looked at me with those kind and candid blue eyes of his.He rubbed his chin with his hand.Well,I hadnt got a vacancy in my office at the moment.第32页University of South China For thirty years now I have been studying my fellowmen.I do not know very much about them.I shrug my shoulders when people tell me that their first impressions of a person are always right.I think they must have small insight or great vanity.For
