长春医学高等专科学校 护理系外语教研室 Unit 1 The Dinner Party Detailed Reading I first heard this tale in India, where it is told as if true — though any naturalist would know it couldn’t be. Later someone told me that the story appeared in a magazine shortly before the First World War. That magazine story, and the person who wrote it, I have never been able to track down.track down The Dinner Party Mona Gardner The country is India. A colonial official and his wife are giving a large dinner party. They are seated with their guests — officers and their wives, and a visiting American naturalist — in their spacious dining room, which has a bare marble floor, open rafters and wide glass doors opening onto a veranda.

长春医学高等专科学校 护理系外语教研室 Unit 1 The Dinner Party A spirited discussion springs up between a young girl who says that women have outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the- sight-of-a-mouse era and a major who says that they haven’t.springs up at-the- sight-of “A woman’s reaction in any crisis,” the major says, “is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has. And that last ounce is what really counts.”crisis The American does not join in the argument but watches the other guests. As he looks, he sees a strange expression come over the face of the hostess. She is staring straight ahead, her muscles contracting slightly. She motions to the native boy standing behind her chair and whispers something to him. The boy’s eyes widen: he quickly leaves the room.argumentcontracting Detailed Reading
12
长春医学高等专科学校 护理系外语教研室 Unit 1 The Dinner Party Of the guests, none except the American notices this or sees the boy place a bowl of milk on the veranda just outside the open doors. The American comes to with a start. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing — bait for a snake. He realizes there must be a cobra in the room. He looks up at the rafters — the likeliest place — but they are bare. Three corners of the room are empty, and in the fourth the servants are waiting to serve the next course. There is only one place left — under the table.cobra His first impulse is to jump back and warn the others, but he knows the commotion would frighten the cobra into striking. He speaks quickly, the tone of his voice so commanding that it silences everyone.impulsecommotion “I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will count three hundred — that’s five minutes — and not one of you is to move a muscle. Those who move will forfeit 50 rupees. Ready!” Detailed Reading
13
长春医学高等专科学校 护理系外语教研室 Unit 1 The Dinner Party The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying “... two hundred and eighty…” when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the cobra emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Screams ring out as he jumps to slam the veranda doors safely shut.imagesemerge “You were right, Major!” the host exclaims. “A man has just shown us an example of perfect self-control.” “Just a minute,” the American says, turning to his hostess. “Mrs. Wynnes, how did you know that cobra was in the room?” A faint smile lights up the woman’s face as she replies: “Because it was crawling across my foot.” Detailed Reading

15
长春医学高等专科学校 护理系外语教研室 Unit 1 The Dinner Party It is not until he sees the boy place a bowl of milk on the veranda that he knows that. After the American realizes what is happening in the room, he is very astonished. ( ) When the American naturalist notices a strange expression coming over the hostess’ face, he immediately knows that there is a snake in the room. He is a clever and calm man. From the last sentence of the story, we can come to the conclusion that the hostess is calmer than the American. The trick the American uses then shows that he is a cowardly man. ( ) 5. 6. 7. 8.
