British Prime Minister Tony Blair admitted on a television program that he has never sent flowers to his wife Cherie and that Hollywood beauty Grace Kelly was his dream lover.
Blair，who allowed Channel 4 interviewer June Sarpong to shadow him for two days last month，made other personal revelations(被曝光的秘聞) when asked questions he rarely heard on the usual television political programs.
During the interview for a program targeting 18-to-30-year-olds，the prime minister admitted that he sometimes had to “wing it” when making public appearances and that he wanted to go out for a drink without being recognized.
However，the most dramatic revelation was his reply to Sarpong’s question whether he still sends his wife flowers.“I’ve never sent her flowers.If I sent her flowers，she will get worried，”Blair said.But he added，“I am romantic.There are other ways of being romantic.”
Blair needed a few moments to recall which posters he had on his bedroom wall as a youngster，and then revealed，“I’ll tell you...actually，when I was younger，I loved Grace Kelly.”
Blair admitted he initially found it “odd” to be prime minister and to be rushed in motorcades from appointment to appointment，and worried that his lifestyle left him “a bit isolated” from ordinary people.
He admitted that he was constantly on the phone between public appearances，and rarely had time to prepare for his next event，telling Sarpong，“I wing it all the time.”
Asked what he would do if he could be invisible for a day，Blair said he would “just walk down the street and go to the pub...just be absolutely normal”．
16．It seems that the author wants to tell us ________.
A．Blair doesn’t like his wife so he has never sent her flowers
B．such great people as Blair sometimes want to live as ordinary people
C．Grace Kelly was once Blair’s girlfriend
D．Blair was not satisfied with his life
17．What does the underlined word “shadow” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Follow and interview.
B．Shade.
C．Stay with.
D．Keep away from.
18．Which word can be used to describe Blair according to this passage?
A．Serious.B．Easy-going.C．Kind.D．Dull.
19．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 7 mean?
A．Blair didn’t take his public appearances seriously.

C．Blair often had to do or talked about something without preparation.
