Your Passport(护照) Please!

Mr. Hill arrives at London Airport at the end of a three-week holiday in France. Usually he wears a beard(留胡须). Since it has been hot there, he has taken it off(剃掉). But his passport photo shows him with his beard.

单项选择题

阅读下面短文,回答下 * * 道题。
自屈原开始把它(“木”)准确地用在一个秋风叶落的季节之中,此后的诗人们无论谢庄、杜甫、黄庭坚,都以此在秋天的情景中取得鲜明的形象。例如吴均的《答柳恽》说:“秋月照层岭,寒风扫高木。”这里用“高树”是不是可以呢当然也可以:曹植的《野田黄雀行》就说: “高树多悲风,海水扬其波。”这也是千古名句,可是这里的“高树多悲风”却并没有落叶的形象,而“寒风扫高木”则显然是蒋叶的景况了。前者正要借满树叶子的吹动,表达出像海潮一般深厚的不平,这里叶子越多,感情才越饱满;而后者却是一个叶子越来越少的局面,所谓“扫高木”者岂不正是“落木千山”的空阔吗然则“高树”则饱满, “高木”则空阔:这就是“木”与“树”相同而又不同的地方。 “木”在这里要比“树”更显得单纯,所谓“枯桑知天风”这样的树,似乎才更近于“木”;它仿佛本身就含有一个落叶的因素。
要说明“木”何以会有这个特征,就不能不触及诗歌语言中暗示性的问题,这暗示性仿佛是概念的影子,常常躲在概念的背后,我们不留心就不会察觉它的存在。而“木”作为“树”的概念的同时,却正是具有着一般“木头”、 “木料”、 “木板”等的影子,这潜在的形象常常影响着我们会更多地想起了树干,而很少会想到了叶子,因为叶子原不是属于木质的, “叶”因此常被排斥到“木”的疏朗的形象以外去,这排斥也就是为什么会暗示着落叶的缘故。而“树”呢它是具有繁茂的枝叶的,它与“叶”都带有密密层层浓荫的联想。
“木”不但让我们容易想起了树干,而且还会带来了“木”所暗示的颜色性。树的颜色,即就树干而论,一般乃是褐绿色,这与叶也还是比较相近的:至于“木”呢,那就说不定,它可能是透着黄色,而且在触觉上它可能是干燥的而不是湿润的:我们所习见的门栓、棍子、桅杆等,就都是这个样子:这里带着“木”字的更为普遍的性格。尽管在这里“木”是作为“树”这样一个特殊概念而出现的,而“木”的更为普遍的潜在的暗示,却依然左右着这个形象,于是“木叶”就自然而然有了落叶的微黄与干燥之感,它带来了整个疏朗的清秋的气息。它是属于风的而不是属于雨的,属于爽朗的晴空而不属于沉沉的阴天;这是一个典型的清秋的性格。至于“落木”呢,则比“木叶”还更显得空阔,它连“叶”这一字所保留下的一点绵密之意也洗净了。然则“木叶”与“落叶”又还有着一定的距离,它乃是“木”与“叶”的统一,疏朗与绵密的交织,一个迢远而情深的美丽的形象。

依据全文提供信息,下列说法不完全正确的一项是( )。

A.“木”就是“树”,在概念上是一致的;但在意味上, “木”一般是在秋风叶落的情景中取得鲜明的形象,而“树”则要借助树叶的多来表达饱满的感情。

B.“树叶”“树”与“叶”的形象之间不但不相排斥,而且十分一致,它们都带有密密层层浓阴的联想,因此, “树叶”可简化为“叶”。

C.“木”具有一般“木头”, “木料”、 “木板”的影子,使人常想起树干,很少会想到叶子, “叶”常被排斥在“木”的形象之外, “木”与“叶”的形象之间是不一致的。

D.“木叶”是 * * 饱含着水分的繁密的叶子,而“落木”比“木叶”还进一层,不仅触觉上有干燥之感,而且连“叶”字所保留的清秋气息和一点绵密之意也洗净了。
