     Once there was a little boy who had a bad temper (脾气). His father gave him a bag of nails and told 
 him that every time he lost his temper, he must knock a nail into the back of the fence.    
     The first day, the boy knocked 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to 
 control his anger, the number of the nails knocked gradually reduced every day. He discovered it was
 easier to hold his temper than to knock those nails into the fence.     
     Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the 
 father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day when he was able to hold his temper. 
The days passed and the boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.       
     The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, 
 but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they
 leave a scar (伤痕) just like this one. You can put a knife into a man and draw it out. No matter how 
 many times you say I'm sorry, the wound (伤口 ) is still there. A verbal (口头的 ) wound is as bad as a
 physical one. "
(     ) 1. The boy's father gave the boy some nails to throw them away.
(     ) 2. Over the next few weeks, the number of  the nails knocked gradually increased every day.
(     ) 3. After knocking all the nails into the  fence, the boy lost his temper.
(     ) 4. The father suggested that the boy should pull out all the nails again.
(     ) 5. No matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still there.

     Two Chinese farmers were invited to the stage in  front of 
 thousands of fans in  Shanghai last Saturday.     
     Wang Xu, 44, and Liu Gang, 29, sang "In the Spring"  in front of about 80,000 people at the Shanghai 
 Stadium.       
     The audience were excited and let out loud  cheers when they introduced themselves on the stage and 
 then when Liu started first sentence of their parts of the song.      
     The two migrant (移居者) workers became stars after singing the song in a rented room in a late 
 August evening. A friend recorded the performance on the mobile phone and sent it to  the Internet. In 
 the video, Liu sits playing the guitar, while Wang Xu stands singing.      
     "If someday I am dead, please bury (埋葬) me in the spring. With no credit card, no girlfriend, or a 
 home with hot water, but only a guitar, I am singing happily, on streets, under bridges or in wild country, 
 though nobody pays attention to the music. " they sang. It has moved thousands to tears.       
     Wang and Liu want to go on singing, but underpasses are now out of the question as the crowds they 
 draw are too big, Wang told the public to be more understanding of migrant workers. "Please don't look
  down upon migrant workers, who may be less educated, but are kindhearted," Wang said.

invitation on his desk. It was from several of his classmates asking him to join them on a camping trip.

now? Nobody seemed to like him.ln fact, he had been so lonely that he drowned his feeling with food.

the trick had worked. Everyone was pleased that Jess thought that was true. But there was no camping
trip. The whole thing was made up.

     One day a person met Socrates and said, “ Do you know what I just heard about your friend?”
"Hold on a minute ,” Socrates replied. “Before telling me anything I'd like you to  pass  the  Filter
(过滤) Test.” “Filter Test?” “Yes.” Socrates continued. “Before you talk to me about my friend, it
might be a good idea to filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the Filter Test. The first filter
is Truth (事实). Have you made sure that what you are about to tell me is true?” “No, in fact I just
heard about it and...” “ All right,” said Socrates. “So you don't know whether it's true or not. Now let's
try the second filter, the filter of Goodness (好处). Is what you are about to tell me about my friend
something good?” “ No, quite the opposite...” “So," Socrates continued, “you want to tell me something
bad about him, but you're not certain if it's true. Now there's one filter left: the filter of Usefulness
(有用). Will what you want to tell me about my friend be useful to me?” “No, not really. ” “Well,” said
Socrates, “if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why will you tell it to
me?”
       We can always join in loose talks(闲话). But when it comes to our friends, it's not worth it. Never
talk behindthe back about our near and dear friends.

1. What should the man do before he told something to Socrates?
______________________________________________________
2. How many filters were there in Socrates' test?

3. The person wanted to tell Socrates something _____    _______about his friend.
