Usually, most women cannot keep a secret for longer than 47 hours, a new study shows. The 1. finds that women like to tell others gossip(闲言碎语) as soon as they hear it. They will tell 2. least one other person in 47 hours and 15 minutes. They may tell their boyfriend, husband, best friend or mother the 3. at first.
3,000 women age 4. 18 and 65 took part in this study. The study found that four out of ten said that they couldn’t keep a secret. It also found that wine 5. gave them a help hand to speak out secrets.
Usually English ladies heard three 6. of gossip a week, and they would tell at least one person. Six in ten said they would tell 7. who had nothing to do with the secret, so the person about the secret couldn’t 8. . Three in ten said they had ideas to speak out the secret. Nearly half(45%) of them spoke out the secrets just for losing their 9. . However, two thirds of them said that they felt sorry 10. they passed on secrets. Three quarters of them said they could keep quiet about a secret. But over a quarter(27%) said they always forgot what they heard the following day.
The story was a true one and still moved me deeply. Thirty years ago. I got to know a lady named Rose. She had no kids and lived alone. I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee and food. One day she said she me to have lunch.
We walked from my work place to a little restaurant on David Street. the way, I began to worry: I knew that she had no money, but if I offered to the lunch. I was afraid I would hurt her.
There were many people in the and all of them were happy. Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window. Then she went to in the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, she came out and sat with me. She just paid for one meal and we started to the delicious food together. She told that the restaurant let people work for a meal if they had no money, or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work. To my surprise, she also explained that the workers were working there were all volunteers.
I remember the beautiful afternoon I shared with Rose. we had a meal together only once, it was paid by Rose’s work. The weather was and bright, and everyone’s smile was warm and bright as well.
I’m still thinking that life cannot be easy to us, but we can still do for our friends and neighbors. The world will be if everybody would like to share happiness with others. It will never be dark if there is a light in everyone’s heart.
