The summer before I went off to college, Mom stood me in her usual spot behind the ironing board (烫衣板)and said, “Pay attention: I’m going to teach you to iron.”

Mom clearly explained her for this lesson. I was going to be and needed to learn this vital skill. Also, I would be meeting new people, and properly ironed clothes would help me make a good .

“Learn to iron a shirt,” Mom said, “and you can iron anything.”

But ironing shirts was not work. It didn’t make use of long muscles we used to throw a baseball,and it wasn’t a operation like ice-skating. Ironing was like driving a car on a street that has a stop sign every 10 feet, Moreover, an iron produced steam and it carried an element of .If you touched the wrong part of it, you’d get burnt. If you forgot to turn it off when you ,you might bum down the house.

As for technique, Mom me to begin with the flat spaces outward, always pushing the iron forward into wrinkled (有褶皱的)parts. Collars had to be done right. Mom said they were close to your face, where everyone would them.

Over the years, I’ve learned to iron shirts skillfully, which gives me a sense of Whatever failures I suffer in my life, an ironed shirt tells me I am good at something. ,through ironing I’ve learned the method for solving even the most troublesome problems. “ wrinkles one at a time,” as Mom might have said, “and before long everything will get ironed out.”

I had worried myself sick over Simon’s mother coming to see me. I was a new    , and I gave an honest account of the students’ work. In Simon’s case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn’t read his own handwriting.        he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his       .

So when Simon’s mother entered the room, my palms(手掌心) were sweating. I was completely       for her lisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech.      me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he     me, he had began to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had      spent an afternoon at a friend’s house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the     I had nurtured(培养) in her son. She kissed me again and left.

I sat, stunned (惊呆), for about half an hour,     what had just happened. How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without        knowing it? What I finally came to        was one day, several months before, when some students were         reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke       , and to encourage her to raise her voice, L had sai, “Speak up. Simon’s the expert on this. He is the        one you have to convince, and he can’t hear you in the        of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention,     more, and became happy. And it was all because he    to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed        was the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most    lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I’m thankful that it came      and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

A typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭子)and a chair .The whip get all of the attention , but it’s mostly for show .In reality , it’s the chair that does the important work .When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face , the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time .With its focus divided , the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next .When faced with so many options , the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.

How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion ? How often do you have something you want to achiever (e,g. lose weight , start a business , travel more ) –only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress ?

This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best , the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information .The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things , and so we take less action , make less progress , and stay the same when we could be improving .

It doesn’t have to be that way .Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face , remember this :All you need to do is focus on one thing .You just need to get started .Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people .If you have somewhere you want to go , something you want to accomplish , someone you want to become ….take immediate action .If you’re clear about where you want to go , the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out the way .

1.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?

A. To trick the lion.

B. To show off his skill .

C. To get ready for a fight.

D. To entertain the audience.

2.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?

A. They feel puzzled over choices.

B. They hold on to the wrong things.

C. They find it hard to make changes.

D. They have to do something for show.

3.What is the author’s attitude towards the experts mentioned in paragraph 3?

A. Tolerant

B. Doubtful

C. Respectful

D. Supportive

4. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”, you’re advised to_____.

A. wait for a better chance

B. break your old habits

C. make a quick decision

D. ask for clear guidance
