Joline had constructed a small cart just a few inches the floor for his son to get around. Using his hands to move about, the cart Kane to “go to” any place just as else was able to do. Kane was more than just a member of the family, he was the .
Much later in my life, I came to that God had sent this child to help some of us who just weren’t getting what was all about. Even with my limited capacity for understanding at that time I knew that Kane was a developed spirit with great wisdom.
Kane demanded attention, not because of his mobility challenges or other apparent shortcomings. In his mind, he had no or shortcomings. The truth is that he received because he was alive and real and had so much to offer.

举一反三
A few months ago as I wandered through my parents’ house，the same house I grew up in，I had a sudden，scary realization．When my parents bought the house，in 1982，they were only two years older than I am now．I tried to imagine myself in two years, ready to settle down and buy the house I’d still be living in almost 30 years later．
It seemed ridiculous．On a practical level，there’s no way I could afford to buy a house anytime soon．More importantly，I wouldn’t want to．I’m not sure where I’ll be living in two years，or what kind of job I’ll have．And I don’t think I’ll be ready to settle down and stay in one place．
So this is probably the generation gap that divides my friends and me from our parents．When our parents were our age，they’d got their education，chosen a career，and were starting to settle into responsible adult lives．
My friends and I--“Generation Y”--still aren’t sure what we want to do with our lives．Whatever we end up doing，we want to make sure we’re happy doing it．We’d rather take risks first，try out different jobs，and move from one city to another until we find our favorite place．We’d rather spend our money on travel than put it in a savings account．
This casual attitude toward responsibility has caused some critics to call my generation “arrogant”(自大的), “impatient”, and “overprotected”．Some of these complaints have a point．As children, we were encouraged to succeed in school，but also to have fun．We grew up in a world full of technological innovation: cell phones，the Internet，instant messaging，and video games．
Our parents looked to rise vertically(垂直的)--starting at the bottom of the ladder and slowly making their way to the top, on the same track, often for the same company. That doesn’t apply to my generation.
Because of that, it may take us longer than our parents to arrive at responsible, stable adulthood. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In our desire to find satisfaction, we will work harder, strive for ways to keep life interesting, and gain a broader set of experiences and knowledge than our parents’ generation did.
小题1:When the author walked through her parents’ house，she _______.| A．had no idea what she wanted from life | | B．realized I should buy a house | | C．started to think about her own life | | D．wondered why her parents had settled down early |
小题2:What is the main “generation gap” between the author and her friends and their parents according to the article?| A．Their attitude toward responsibility． | | B．Their ways of making their way to the top． | | C．Their ways of gaining experience． | | D．Their attitude towards high technology． |
小题3:Which of the following might the author agree with?| A．It’s better to take adult responsibility earlier． | | B． It’s all right to try more before settling down． | | C．It involves too much effort to rise vertically． | | D．It’s ridiculous to call her generation “arrogant”. |
小题4:What is the main theme of the article?| A．The sudden realization of growing up. | | B．Criticisms of the young generation. | | C．A comparison between lifestyles of generations. | | D．The factors that have changed the young generation. |

When Joan gave birth to the first boy in her family in three generations, she and her husband were overjoyed. So were her parents. Joan expected her elder sister, Sally, to be just as delighted as them. Joan had always admired Sally--the beauty and the star of the family--and felt happy about her achievements.
But since the baby"s arrival, the sisters have become distant. Joan feels hurt for Sally seems completely uninterested in her baby. Sally, who has no children, claims that her younger sister "acts as if no one ever had a baby before."
Neither Sally nor Joan understands that the real cause of the current coldness is that their family roles have suddenly changed to the opposite. Finally Joan seems to be better than her elder sister--and Sally doesn"t like it! Their distance may be temporary, but it shows that childhood competition don"t fade easily as ages grow. It can remain powerful in relationships throughout life.
In a study of the University of Cincinnati, 65 men and women between ages 25 and 93 were asked how they felt about their brothers and sisters. Nearly 75 percent admitted having hidden competitive feelings. In a few cases, these emotions were so strong as to have affected their entire lives.
Many adult brothers and sisters are close, supportive--yet still tend to compete. Two brothers I know turn into killers when on opposite sides of a tennis net. Off the court, they are the best of friends. My own younger sister can"t wait to tell me when I"ve put on weight. However, she"s a terrible cook and that pleases me; I tease her when she comes to dinner. Happily, despite these small failings, we have been an important resource for each other.
In between the very competitive and the generally supportive children lie those who say that no friendship should survive. Some brothers and sisters stay at arm"s length, but never give up competition completely. Why do these puzzling, unproductive, often painful relationships continue to exist?
小题1:When Joan"s son was born, Sally .| A．felt very happy | B．felt not delighted | C．moved away | D．admired her a lot |
小题2:What happens to children"s desire to compete with their brothers and sisters?| A．It sometimes will disappear when they grow up. | | B．It will never disappear throughout life. | | C．It will improve their relationships when they grow up. | | D．It will never harm their relationships when they grow up. |
小题3:Why does the author"s sister often tell her when she"s put on weight?| A．Because she wants the author to go on a diet. | | B．Because she wants the author to stop calling her a bad cook. | | C．Because she wants to make fun of the author"s weight. | | D．Because she wants to be honest with the author. |
小题4:The underlined sentence means that although some brothers and sisters .| A．live near each other, they still have competitions | | B．live away from each other, they stop their competitions | | C．live together, they often think of ending their competitions | | D．live within a big family, they often try to end their competitions |

A high school history teacher once told us, “If you make one close friend in school, you will be most fortunate. A true friend is someone who stays with you for life.” teaches that he is right. Good friendship is just not easily .
It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough for a true friendship to . However, there can be disagreement in the need for each of us to think carefully about what kind of friendship we want.
To most of us, are considered very important, but we need to make it clear in our minds what kind of friendship we want. Are they to be close or at arm’s length? Do we want to ourselves or do we want to walk on surface(表面)? For some people, many friendships on the surface are enough and that’s all right. But at some point we need to make sure that our are the same as our friends’ expectations. The sharing of experiences including our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to friendships. But it must be done slowly and only if there are signs of interest and action .
What are some of the of friendship? The greatest is the attraction to expect too much too soon. Deep relationships time. Another “main difficulty” is the selfishness to think one “ ” the other, including his time and attention. , friendships require actions in return. In other words, you must give as as you take. Finally, there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die .
