I am not sure that I can draw an exact line between wit and humor (perhaps the distinction is so subtle that only those persons can decide who have long white beards), but even an ignorant person may ex- press an opinion in this matter.

I am quite positive that humor is the more comfortable and livable quality, for humorous persons, if their gift is genuine and not a mere shine upon the surface, are always agreeable companions. They have pleasant mouths turned up at the corners, to which the great Master of Marionettes has fixed the strings and he holds them in his nimblest fingers to twitch them at the slightest jest. But the mouth of a merely witty man is hard and sour. Nor is the flash from a witty man always comforting, but a humorous man radiates a general pleasure.

I admire wit, but I have no real liking for it; it has been too often employed against me, whereas humor is always an ally. It never points an impertinent linger into my defects. A wit's tongue, however, is as sharp as a donkey's stick—I may gallop the faster for its prodding, but the touch behind is too persuasive for any comfort.

Wit is a lean creature with a sharp inquiring nose, whereas humor has a kindly eye and a comfortable girth. Wit has a better voice in a solo, but humor comes into the chorus best. Wit keeps the season's fashions and is precise in the phrases and judgments of the day, but humor is concerned with homely eternal things.

The distinction between wit and humor is______.

A．of no particular importance

rly from cold and hunger, he decided to go shooting in a wood near his cottage(小屋，村舍). The wood belonged to Lord Northwood, a rich gentleman, and Pat had no right to go there, but in it there were swarms of rabbits and flocks of birds that were good to eat, and Pat determined to take the risk. Suddenly he saw the owner, with a group of friends, coming towards him in the wood. There was a look of anger on Lord Northwood’s face as he caught sight of the gun in Pat’s hands. Pat’s heart sank with fear, but he saw there was no hope of escape, so he walked boldly up to the company and said to Lord Northwood, “Good morning, sir, and what has brought you out so early this morning？” Lord Northwood, rather surprised, said he and his friends were taking a little exercise to get an appetite for their breakfast. Then, looking at Pat with suspicion, he said, “But why are you out so early in the morning？” “Well, sir,” said Pat, “I just came out to see if I could get a breakfast for my appetite.” The whole crowd burst into laughter at Pat’s ready wit, and with a smile Lord Northwood walked on, leaving Pat to try his luck with the rabbits.

throw on their clothes, breakfast on bread and fat, snatch the dinner baskets which had been packed for them overnight, and hurry off across the fields to the farm. Getting the boys off was a more difficult matter. Mothers would have to call and shake and sometimes pull boys of eleven or twelve out of their warm beds in a winter morning.

Most of the young and those in the prime of life were thickset, red-faced men of good medium height and enormous strength, who prided themselves on the weights they could carry and boasted of never having had an ache nor a pain in their lives. The elders stooped, had gnarled and swollen hands and, walked badly, for they felt the effects of a life spent out of doors in all weathers and of the rheumatism which tried most of them. They still spoke the dialect, in which the vowels were not only broadened, but in many words doubled. Boy was "boo-oy," cola "coo-al" and so on. In other words, syllables were slurred and words were run together, as "brenbu'er" for bread and butter. They had hundreds of proverbs and sayings and their talk was stiff with simile. Nothing was ever simply hot, cold or colored; it was "as hot as hell, as cold as ice, as green as grass" or "as yellow as a guinea". To be nervy was to be "like a cat on hot bricks"; to be angry , "mad as a bull", or any one might be "poor as a rat", "sick as a dog" , "as ugly as sin" , "full of the milk of human kindness", or "stinking with pride" .

The men's incomes were the same to a penny (ten shillings a week); their circumstances, pleasures, and their daily field work were shared in common but in themselves they differed, as other men of their day differed, in country and town. Some were intelligent, others slow in the uptake, some were kind and helpful, others selfish. A stranger would not have found the dry humor of the Scottish peasant, or the racy wit and wisdom of Thomas Hardy's Wessex. These men's minds were east in a heavier mould and moved more slowly. Yet there were occasional gleams of quiet fun. When Edmund was crying because his pet magpie had flown away one man told him to go and tell Mrs. Andrews about it (she was the village gossip) "and you'll soon know where she's been seen."

Their favorite virtue was endurance. Not to flinch from pain or hardship was their ideal. A young woman would say to the midwife after her first confinement, "I didn't flinch, did I？ Oh, I do hope I didn't flinch", and a man would tell how he had taken a piece of fence to fight off a charging bull, and not he but the bull had "flinched."

Most of the younger men were ______.

A．satisfied with their weight and good health

B．boastful of their great height and energy

C．vain about their good health and strength

D．proud of their being able to carry light weights
