单选题I was in my third year of teaching writing at Ralph High School in New York, when one of my students, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence (缺席) from class the day before:
"Dear Mr. McCort, Mikey"s grandmother, who is eighty years of age, fell down the stairs from too much coffee and I kept Mikey at home to take care of her and his baby sister so I could go to my job. Please excuse Mikey and he"ll do his best in the future. P.S. His grandmother is OK."
I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk. I said nothing. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students. If I were to deal with them, I"d be busy 24 hours a day. The writers of those notes didn"t realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull: "Peter was late because the alarm clock didn"t go off."
The students always said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject, but when they produced excuse notes, they were excellent. So I decided to type out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classes. I said, "They"re supposed to be written by parents, but actually they are not. True, Mikey?" The students looked at me nervously.
"Now, this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note-the first class, ever, to practice writing them." Everyone smiled as I went on, "Today I"d like you to write "An Excuse Note from Adam to God" or "An Excuse Note from Eve to God"." Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. For the first time ever I saw students so immersed (专心的) in their writing, they had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed. But suddenly I saw the headmaster at the door. He entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, and then said, "I"d like you to see me in my office." My heart sank.
When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said, "I just want to tell you that that lesson, that task, whatever the hell you were doing, was great. Those kids were writing on the college level. Thank you."

Last April, on a visit to the new Mall
of America near Minneapolis, I carried with me a small book provided for the
reporters by the public relations office. It included a variety of "fun facts"
about the mall, such as: 140,000 hot dogs am sold each week, there are 10,000
full-time jobs, 44 sets of moving stairs and 17 lifts, 12,750 parking places,
13,000 tons of steel, and $ I million is drawn weekly from 8 ATMs. Opened in the
summer of 1992, the mall was built where the former Minneapolis Stadium had
been. It was only a five-minute drive from Minneapolis to St. Paul International
Airport. With 4.2 million square feet of floor space--22 times the size of the
average American shopping center--the Mall of America was the largest shopping
and family recreation center under one roof in the United States.
I knew already that the Mall of America had been imagined by its
designers, not merely as a marketplace, but as a national tourist attraction.
Eleven thousand articles, the small book informed me, had been written about the
mall. Four hundred trees had been planted in its gardens, $625 million had been
spent to build it, and 350 stores were already in business. Three thousand bus
tours were expected each year along with a half-million Canadian visitors and
200,000 Japanese tourists. Sales were expected to be at $650 million for
1993 and at $1 billion for 1996. Pop singers and film stars such as Janet
Jackson and Arnold Schwarzenegger had visited the mall. It was five times larger
than Red Square and it included 2.3 miles of hallways and used almost twice as
much steel as the Eiffel Tower. It was also home to the nation's largest indoor
park, called Knott's Camp Snoopy.
