Adults usually do not remember most of the things that are taught by their teachers at school. But this story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I think of this story.
It was a normal Monday morning, and my teacher was teaching us on important things in life and about devoting ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story went:
An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the subway. He would get onto the train right to Central London, and then sit at the street corner and beg. He would do this every single day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years.
His house was dirty, and a stench (惡臭) came out of the house and it smelled terrible. The neighbors could not stand the smell any more, so they called for the police officers to clear the place. The officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of money all over the house that he had collected over the years.
The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire (百萬(wàn)富翁). They waited outside his house expecting to share the good news with him. When the old man arrived home that evening, one of the officers told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire.
But the old man said nothing at all; he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up as usual, went to the subway, sat at the street corner and continued to beg.
Clearly, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant (有意義的) for his life. We learn nothing from this story other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing.
【小題1】The neighbor called the police because ______.
A.the old man kept begging money from them every day |
B.there was something dangerous in the old man’s house |
C.the old man wouldn’t buy tickets for the train |
D.they couldn’t bear the smell from the old man’s house |
A.remained calm | B.became excited |
C.felt worried | D.became nervous |
A.Make great plans for your life. |
B.Keep on doing what you like. |
C.Do something that is good to society. |

In the clinic, I asked if Michael could be retested, so the specialist tested him again. To my 16 , it was the same score.
Later that evening, I 17 told Frank what I had learned that day. After talking it over, we agreed that we knew our son much better than an IQ test. We decided that Michael’s score must have been a 18 and we should treat him 19 as usual.
We moved to Indiana in 1962, and Michael studied at Concordia High School in the same year, he got 20 grades in the school, especially in biology and chemistry, which was a great comfort.
Michael 21 Indiana University in 1965 as a pre-medical student. Soon afterwards, his teacher permitted him to take more courses than 22 . In 1968, he was accepted by the School of Medicine, Yale University.
On graduation day in 1972, Frank and I 23 the ceremony (典禮) at Yale. After the ceremony, we told Michael about the 24 IQ score he got when he was six. Since that day, Michael sometimes would look at us and say 25 , “My dear mom and dad never told me that I couldn’t be a doctor, not until after I graduated from medical school!” It is his special way of thanking us for the 26 we had in him.
Interestingly, Michael then asked for another IQ test. We went to the same clinic where he had 27 the test eighteen years before. This time Michael scored 126, an increase of 36 points. A result like that was supposed to be 28 .
Children often do as well as what adults, particularly parents and teachers, 29 of them. That is, tell a child he is “ 30 ” , and he may play the role of a foolish child.

Fear can be a wonderful feeling in our lives, protecting us from dangerous situations and keeping us safe. But fear can also limit our lives significantly. While it may not be conscious, fear may make us think we are unacceptable or that what we have to offer isn’t valuable. Fear may make us feel that we are not safe being ourselves.
To avoid feeling fear, we may limit our lives greatly, living in tiny boxes. Living this way gives us the illusion(假象) of safety but leaves us with an unfulfilling life of no passion. If we shine a light on many of our fears, we see they have a very limited view of what is “safe” and how to “protect” us. Many of our fears are concerned only with protecting us from humiliation(羞辱) and failure. While these fears are doing their jobs incredibly well, they are doing so with faulty and outdated programming. Many fears we have as adults are trying to protect us as they protected us when we were children. Indeed, many of our current, automatic reactions to fear were actually formed when we were children.
Even so, it’s important not to judge ourselves for feeling these types of fears. If we judge ourselves, we will bury our fears or disguise them. By denying our fears, however, we also deny our energy, creativity and passion.
So what do we do with fear? We recognize the fear for what it is--- a feeling we’ve experienced many times in the past and a feeling we will experience many times in the future. We become very familiar with our own particular brand of fears and how we allow them to control our lives. It is especially beneficial for each of us to become aware of the particular behavior patterns we’ve adopted when we feel fear, so we can look at our reactions with a sense of humor and compassion. Then, if we wish, we can choose a different response, which can be a scary yet very exciting experience.
1.According to the first paragraph, fear sometimes .
A.protect us when we’ve made mistakes |
B.makes sure our feelings are not hurt |
C.brings great change to our everyday life |
D.makes us lose confidence in ourselves |
2.It can be inferred from the passage that the author .
A.thinks it difficult to control our fear |
B.believes fears protect us negatively |
C.thinks it’s good to criticize ourselves |
D.values the advantages of feeling fear |
3.According to the author, the ways we react to fear .
A.vary from person to person |
B.have been formed since childhood |
C.develop during our growth |
D.will not change until we get old |
4.The last paragraph mainly tells us .
A.what is the essence of fears |
B.usual reactions we have when feeling fear |
C.how to deal with fears reasonably |
D.the importance of humor and compassion |
5.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Is fear managing your life? |
B.Be calm when feeling fear |
C.What do you fear most? |
D.Passion, chance and fear |

Martha was busy with her job. She believed she had to work harder because she loved her father who was sick with cancer. She had to provide for his expensive medicines. Her brothers and sisters meanwhile stayed with their father most of the time. They bathed him, sang for him, spoon-fed(用匙喂) him or simply kept him company.
One day Martha was hurt. She overheard(無(wú)意中聽(tīng)到) her father telling her mother, "All our children love me except Martha."
"How can this be?" Martha thought. "Am I not the one killing myself in my work to have money to pay for his medicines? My brothers and sisters do not even provide their share in the expenses."
One night, as Martha was as usual late in going home, she saw her father was lying awake. She walked close to his bedsides. Her father held her hands and said, "I miss you. I don't have much time. Stay with me." And she stayed with her father holding his hand the whole night.
The next morning Martha said to everybody, "I have taken a leave of absence. I would like to be with father. I will bathe him and sing for him from now on." Her father had a beautiful smile. He knew Martha loved him, too.
As children, we need the presence of our loved ones. Adults need no less. I have observed my mother’s orchids(蘭花). When she is away for a long time, they are unhealthy and many of them wither(干枯). But when she is around , they bloom with beautiful flowers. My mother does nothing special . She just spends her time looking after them.
1.Before Martha heard her parents’ talk ,she thought her father _____.

D. loved her father more than before
3.By telling Matha’s story, what does the author try to express?
A.Nothing is more important than the company of loved ones.
B. Money and a successful career don’t always bring happiness
