Dear Aunty,After years of her crying. I finally gave in and allowed my daughter
题型：不详难度：来源：
After years of her crying. I finally gave in and allowed my daughter to have a cat. I now regret my decision. As someone needs to have a clean, tidy house, I no longer feel relaxed in my own home. If I tell her, “sorry, the cat has to go.” She will be heartbroken. What can I do?
-Feline Phobic
Dear Phobic,
I’m an animal lover and on your kid’s and cat’s side. Tell your daughter your problem. Ask her to help you come up with a plan. Perhaps you can agree to allow the cat only in certain areas of the house. This is a chance for your daughter to develop the sense of responsibility owning a pet requires.
Dear Aunty,
I got the highest grade on a biology test. Now the popular kids think I’m brainy, and want me in their lab group. I knew I was being used. Now, they want my homework. What should I do?
-Lily
Dear Lily.
Popularity can come at a price, but it’s no excuse to cheat. Offer to help new friends with their homework, but don’t give them yours.
Dear Aunty,
I’m one of six assistants in a dental(牙科的) office. But I’m new-there just four months. I’ve tried to join conversations, but they just ignore me. They go shopping together. No one invites me. How can I break into the circle?
-Crystal
Dear Crystal,
Humans run in packs like dogs. When a new dog enters the pack, a lot of discovery goes on. So bring cookies for everyone! Then try making friends with one co-worker. Invite her to lunch. When you get familiar with each other, tell her how hard you’re finding the situation at work. chances are, she’ll take you under her wing.

举一反三
After a four-day journey he 23 the water to the old man who took a deep drink, 24 warmly and thanked his student lavishly for the sweet water. The young man returned to his village with a happy 25 .
Later, the teacher let another student 26 the water. He spat it 27 , saying it was awful. It 28 had been no longer fresh and 29 unpleasant to drink because of the old leather container.
The student challenged his teacher: “Master, the water was smelly. Why did you 30 to like it?”
The teacher replied, “You only tasted the water. I tasted the 31 . The water was simply the container for an act of loving-kindness and nothing could be 32 .”
I think we understand this lesson best when we receive 33 gifts of love from young children. 34 it’s a tray or a bracelet, the 35 and proper response is 36 and expressed thankfulness because we love the idea within the gift.
Gratitude doesn’t always come naturally. 37 , most children and many adults value only the thing given 38 the feeling embodied in it. We should remind ourselves and 39 our children about the beauty and purity of feelings and expressions of gratitude. 40 , gifts from the heart are really gifts of the heart.

One day, she was hit by a car. When she awoke, she found herself in a hospital. She could still speak, but had no recollection of any part of her past life. She was a total amnesiac! Her husband and children visited her daily, but she did not know them.
Determined to understand what had happened to her, she began reading medical textbooks and studying in the specialized area of amnesia and memory loss. She met and discussed with specialists in this field. Eventually she wrote a paper on her condition. Not long afterward, she was invited to address a medical conference to deliver her paper, answer questions about her amnesia, and share her experiences and ideas. During this period, something amazing happened. She became a genuinely positive, confident, outgoing woman, well informed, and very much in demand as a speaker and authority in the medical profession. All memory of her negative childhood had been wiped out. She changed her thinking and changed her life.
Each person comes into the world with no thoughts or ideas at all, and everything that a person thinks and feels is learned from babyhood onward. The adult becomes the sum total of everything he or she learns, feels, and experiences while growing up.
Everyone is born with no self-concept at all. Every idea, opinion, feeling, attitude, or value you have as an adult is the result of an idea or impression you took in and accepted as true. When you believe something to be true, it becomes true for you, whatever the fact may be. You are not what you think you are, but what you think, you are.
小题1:What happened to the woman after the accident?
| A．She believed she was not talented. |
| B．She didn"t love her husband any more. |
| C．She refused to recall her past life. |
| D．She was in complete memory loss. |
小题3:Which statement agrees with the last paragraph?
| A．Great minds think alike. |
| B．Thinking is to man what water is to fish. |
| C．Confidence in you is the first step on the road to success. |
| D．You are not what you believe, but what others believe you are. |
It had been with me as I 44 _____ hard to support my family, as I played with my children and heard their 45 _____ and even when I was 46 _____ with my wife at my side looking after me. It had been with me as I raced towards that stupid banner. I just didn’t have the 47 _____ to see it.
There is an old Chinese proverb that says, “Tension is what you think you should be. 48 _____ is who you are” Perhaps we all should stop our race towards the 49 _____ life we think we should have and 50 _____ the life we have now. Happiness will never be found under some banner far away. If will be found 51 _____ your own heart, soul and mind. It will be found when you 52 _____ that others love you just as you do.
Don’t be a tortoise or a rabbit when it comes to your happiness. Be a playful puppy and carry your stick of 53 _____ with you everywhere you go. 54 _____ yourself out of the race and realize that when it comes to love and happiness you are 55 _____ there.
