Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction and even if they have ever 1 a place once, they will be able to find it again years 2 ．
I am one of those unfortunate people who have a very 3 sense of direction and I may have visited a place time and time but I still manage to get 4 on my way there．
When I was young I was so 5 that I never dared ask complete strangers the 6 and so I used to walk round in 7 and hope that by some chance I would 8 to the place I was heading for．
Now I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive 9 that puzzle（使迷惑） me．Often people do not like to admit that they do not 10 their home town and will insist on telling you the way 11 they do not know it; others, who are anxious to 12 that they know their home town very well, will give you a long 13 of directions which you cannot possibly hope to remember; and still others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the 14 direction to that in which you should be going．
If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always pretend to be a 15 to the town in order to avoid（避免） giving them 16 directions, but even this can have embarrassing（令人窘迫的） results．
Once I was on my way to work when I was 17 by a man who asked me 18 I would direct him to the Sunlight Building．I gave my 19 reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I 20 that he had asked for directions to my office building．
However, it was too 21 to turn back and search him out of the crowd 22 me, for I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to 23 him waiting．
How embarrassed I was when my secretary 24 in the very man who had asked for directions to my 25 !

| Some years ago I worked with people on public welfare. I believed that everybody had the ability to be 1 and all we have to do was to make them start working. The first thing I said to them was, "I would like to know what your 2 are." Everyone looked at me as if I were 3 . One woman said "I don't know what you can 4 with dreams. The rats are eating up my kids." I said. "That's terrible. You are very much 5 with the rats and your kids. How can we help?" " I could use a new screen door(纱门)because there are 6 in the old." I asked, "Is there anybody knowing 7 to fix it?" A man said, "Long ago I used to do things like that but now I have a bad back, but I'll 8 ." I gave him some money to do that. The next week, when the group was 9 , I asked the woman, "Well, is your 10 door fixed?" "Oh, yes," she said. "Then we can start dreaming, right?" She 11 at me. I asked the man, "How do you feel?" He said, "Well, it's funny that I'm beginning to feel a lot 12 ." These seemingly small 13 allowed the group to see that dreams were not stupid. One woman 14 that she wanted to be a secretary. I said, " What 15 in your way?" She answered, "I have six kids, and no one can 16 them while I'm away." I asked "Who would help this woman while she gets some 17 at school?" Another woman said "I got kids, too, but I could do that." So the woman went to school. In 12 weeks these people were 18 public welfare. The woman who 19 the children became a licensed foster care (代别人照看孩子)person. The man became a handyman. I've not only done that 20 , I've done it many times. | ||||

| Some personal characteristics play an important role in the development of one's intelligence. But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people. The socalled nonintelligence factors'(非智力因素)include __1__ feelings, will, motivation, interests and habits. After a 30year followup study of 8000 males, American psychologists __2__ that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence __3__, but nonintelligence factors including the desire to learn, will power and selfconfidence. __ 4__ people all know that one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don't pay much attention to __5__ these factors. Some parents are greatly worried __6__ their children fail to do well in their studies. They blame either genetic factors, malnutrition(营养不良)or laziness, but they never take __7__ consideration these non-intelligence factors. At the same time, some teachers don't inquire into these reasons __8__ students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or __9__ criticize or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and __10__ themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray(迷途)because they are sick of learning. A __11__ of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46.5 per cent of them were __12__of learning because of examinations, 36.4 per cent lacked persistence, and consciousness and 10.3 per cent were sick of learning. It is clear __13__ the lack of improvement of nonintelligence factors has been a main obstacle(障碍) to __14__development in teenagers. It even causes an imbalance between physiological and __15__ development among a few students. If we don't start now to __16__ the improvement of nonintelligence factors, it will not only affect the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the__17__ of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward __18__ about how to improve students' nonintelligence factors. First, parents and teachers should __19__ understand teenage psychology. On this basis, they can help them to achieve the objectives of learning, __20__ their interests and toughening their willpower. | ||||

| Some thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs. Nanette O'Neil gave an arithmetic 1 to our class. When the papers were 2 she discovered that twelve boys had made the same mistakes throughout the test.? There is really nothing new about 3 in the exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs O'Neill didn't even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to 4 after class. I was one of the twelve. Mrs. O'Neill asked 5 questions, and she didn't 6 us either. Macaulay, she wrote on the blackboard the 7 words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to 8 these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.? I don't 9 about the other eleven boys. Speaking for myself I can say: it was the most important single 10 of my life. Thirty years after being introduced to Macaulay's words, they still seem to me the best yard-stick(准绳), because they give us a 11 to measure ourselves rather than others.? 12 of us are asked to make 13 decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called upon daily to make a great many personal decisions. Should the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to the policeman? Should the 14 change received at the store be forgotten or 15 ? Nobody will know except you. But you have to live with yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect.? | ||||
