One day, a successful businessman was getting ready to go to his office in the morning. When he opened the door of his car, a black dog sleeping under his car suddenly came out and bit(咬) his leg! He was angry and threw a rock at the dog, although he was not able to hit it.

When he reached his office, the businessman called a meeting of his managers. During the meeting, he took out his anger on his managers. His managers were upset about this and took out their own anger on the people working under them. Gradually, the businessman's anger spread through the whole company.

The businessman was still angry after returning home. His wife opened the door. She asked him, "Why are you to late today?" The man shouted at his wife, "I didn't go to the office to play soccer, I went to work. So don't make me angry with your stupid questions."

His wife was upset about being shouted at for no reason. She turned her anger on their son, who was watching TV. "This is all you do. You have no interest in studying! Turn off the TV now! "She shouted.

The son didn't know how to take out his anger. He went out and saw a yellow dog. Then he picked up a rock and threw it at the yellow dog. The dog ran away, barking in pain.

Sometimes, when we are angry about something, we might take out our anger on others who are not to blame (责备) for our mood. This is not fair to others. That's to say, we should learn to control our anger.

The sight of a tailor-shop gave me a strong wish to throw off my old clothes and get a new suit. Could I afford it? No, I had nothing in the world but a million-pound note. So I forced myself to go on by. But soon I was drawing back again. The temptation troubled me a lot. I must have passed that shop six times during that struggle. At last I gave in, I had to. I asked if they had a cheap suit. The fellow I spoke to made no answer at first, looked me up and down, noticed that I was almost in rags(衣衫褴褛), then said, “Just a minute.”

I waited till he had finished his work. Then he took me into a back room to choose a cheapest suit for me. I put it on. It didn’t fit, but it was new and I was anxious to have it, so I said shyly:

“Could you wait a few days for the money? I haven’t any small change on me.”

The fellow looked at me coldly and said, “Oh, you haven’t. Well, of course, I know that gentlemen like you carry only large notes(支票)”.

I was angry, and said, “My friend, you shouldn't judge a stranger always by the clothes he wears. I am quite able to pay for this suit. I simply didn't wish to put you to the trouble of changing a large note. ” “Why do you think we can’t change your note? Instead, we can.”

I handed the note to him and said: “Oh, very well, I am sorry.”

He received it with a smile, and then as he looked at the note, his smile froze.

Realizing what was going on, the owner of the shop gave a low whistle and talked excitedly, as if to himself.

“To sell such a suit as that to a millionaire! Tod’s a fool. Please get those clothes off, sir. Wait till you see what we’ll make for you to your own measure.”

Before I could get in a word he had measured me, and was giving orders for evening suits, morning suits, shirts and all sorts of things.
