举一反三

Sometimes people come into your life and you know at once that they were sure to be there. They serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help find out who you are or who you want to become. You neve

r know who these people may be: your classmate, neighbor, teacher, long-lost friend or even a real stranger. But you know that every moment they will affect (影响) your life in some serious way.
Sometimes things happen to you. At the time they may seem terrible, painful (痛苦的) and unfair. But later you realize that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your further ability and strength. Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck.
The people you meet affect your life, and the successes and failure (失败) you experience, create who you are. Even the bad experience

s can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.
Enjoy every day even every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before, and really listen. You should set your sights high, hold your head up, tell yourself you are a great one and believe in yourself.
You can make your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.

For a long time being happy was considered natural，and there was nothing special to do about it. Now we know that we can work at getting along well with other people. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better.
One way is being unselfish，not wanting everything your own way or asking for the best share of everything, including the attention of your friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad ones in other people.
You don’t have to be spineless(无骨气的)in order to be popular. In fact，you will be liked and respected(尊重)if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights(权利). But do it politely and pleasantly. One way to develop a good character is being friendly and polite to your own group, to older people，to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you.
You cannot expect to be p

erfect, so you must learn not to b

e too unhappy when you make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed unless he refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged(泄气的) when they know their unpleasant qualities—selfishness，laziness，etc. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.
When sometMng is wrong，it is best to try to make it right. Perhaps you don’t like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why，and look at yourself，too. Make sure that you are not doing something to make others dislike you. In time, things may turn out all right, then you simply have to learn to get along the best you can w

ith the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you can’t change.
小题1:Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined part?

A．Not sharing anything with others.

B．Not thinking too much of yourself.

C．Not attracting the attention of your friends.

D．Not making friends with people who have bad points.

小题2:How can we get along well with others according to the passage?

A．We should find out unpleasant qualities in others and in ourselves.

B．We should show others our unpleasant qualities.

C．We should stand up for our rights in any way we like.

D．We should fight against our unpleasant qualities.

小题3:What can we know from the passage?

A．Even if we don’t have good relationships with others，we needn’t work at it.

B．Even if someone is not important to us，we still need to treat him politely.

C．Even if we are willing to learn from ouy mistakes，we are still to be blamed.

D．Even if the situation cannot be changed, we still need to worry much about it.
