I have friends who ended up in prison. I could have ended up that way, too, but Mr. Clark wouldn’t let that happen.

At the age of12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺點). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like ? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“ That’s just for you,” he said.“ You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”
Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.
What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?
A. He told her to write down all that her“ enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.
B. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.
C. He criticized (批評) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.
D. He refused to take the list and have a look at it.
What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?
A .I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.
B. She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.
C. Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me. D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.
Why did her father listen to her quietly?
A. Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.
B. Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping silent for a while.
C. Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.
D. Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.
Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had
B. No an Enemy, but the Best Friend
C. My Father
D. My Childhood

There is a problem each of us will face: Apologizing is difficult. We are trapped in what we think of ourselves by holding onto our pride. We can be selfish and not willing to admit our most obvious mistakes. Pride eats away at us as we argue or ignore the mistake. Guilt traps us in its cage of lies and pride as we defend our self-centered minds.
It has happened to me. I have had too much pride and selfishness to apologize to a loved one I had hurt. When I did want to apologize, I couldn’t bring myself to face the other person. This is the pride I’m talking about. Maybe apologies come difficult for men because they’re expected to be dominant(占優(yōu)勢的). It’s like the joke that a man never asks for directions when lost. Ladies are more emotionally open than men and are willing to express their emotion. Still, both genders wonder how to apologize correctly.
How does not apologizing affect other people? They feel hurt and believe that you are not willing to communicate your mistake. They lose trust in you as you hide behind your mistake and avoid reality. They become angry with you, wondering why you will not tell them the truth. They may begin to counter your lack of apologies by not apologizing themselves and then the relationship goes downhill as the two of you get caught in a power struggle.
You need to communicate your mistakes. A mistake you made is like a scratch(劃痕) and by not apologizing you are making the scratch a deeper wound and rubbing salt into it. You need to stop hurting the other person and yourself by learning to apologize. There is real power in apologizing and emotional healing.
People find it hard to apologize for their mistakes due to ________.
A. emotional healing B. their pride
C. making arguments D. being trapped in lies
Why are men more unwilling to make apologies?
A. They don’t intend to hurt other people.
B. They are too shy.
C. They don’t want to be considered as weak.
D. They think it is not necessary to apologize.
The underlined word “counter” probably means _________.
A. object to B. focus on C. depend on D. benefit from
What bad effect does it have if you refuse to apologize for your mistakes?
A. You won’t be focused on by other people.
B. All people won’t believe in you in turn.
C. You won’t be forgiven even if you tell the truth.
D. The friendship will be hurt and trust will be lost.

Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning.
But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong.
The most common wrong strategy is this: supposing you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.
There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. You’re wasting time lying in bed awake.
My solution is to combine both methods. I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.
However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.
1.According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to ________.
A．people who stay up until the next morning
B．people who get up early in the morning
C．people who feel sleepy in the morning
D．people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning
2.Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser?
A．Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time.
B．Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise.
C．Because he / she wanted to test which school is better.
D．Because he / she found that the productivity was higher.
3.The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________.
A．going to bed after midnight
B．a(chǎn)sking scholars for advice on sleeping habits
C．getting up early occasionally
D．pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping
4.What’s the author’s sleep pattern?
A．Going to bed early and getting up early.
B．Going to bed late and getting up late.
C．Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early time.
D．Going to bed early and getting up late.
5.The passage is mainly about ________.
A．main schools of thought on sleep patterns B．how to have a good sleep
C．wrong strategies for getting up early D．how to become an early riser
