阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案

　Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it ?Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?

　Many people are afraid to assert themselves．Dr．Robert Albert, author of “Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back”, thinks it's because their self-esteem is low． “Our whole set-up is geared to make people distrust themselves, ” says Albert．“There’s always a superior around : a parent, a teacher, a boss---who knows better．　　 These superiors often gain when they ship away at your self-image．”

　But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves．They offer “Assertiveness Training”courses, “AT”for short．In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves． They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so．They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people．

　In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear．A group taking an AT course will help the timid person to lose his fear．But AT uses an even stronger motive---the need to share．The timid people speak out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels．

　Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image．If someone you face is more “important” than you, you may feel less of a person．You will start to doubt your own good sense．You go by the other person’s label．But, why should you?AT says you can get to feel good about yourself．And once you do, you can learn to speak out．

This is a story that happened 15 years ago but it has always stayed with me since then.On the way back from work every evening,more often than not there would be a homeless man standing at the exit of the freeway.He always waved at every car,he was always happy and smiling and sometimes almost dancing.Every day after work when I got there，I would quickly roll down my window and give him the coins.Occasionally the red light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day.His answer would always be the same，“I’m blessed！”.

It amazed me that even in his situation of being homeless he was so positive，and his answer would remind me of how blessed I was.A single mother of four amazing kids,with a place to call home and with a job to provide for my kids.Then one day I was called into my boss’s office and was told that I was being laid off due to the economy.Needless to say that on my was home that day I was very sad and upset.I didn’t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did.I wasn’t feeling the joy as I got off the ramp where the homeless man would be.Yet there he was as alway，as l turned the ramp.He set his eyes on me，while still smiling and waving at others.

While I was waiting for the red light to turn，he strolled over to my car.He had a big smile he looked me straight in the eyes and said “today I will give you a dollar”.He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill.I was blown away.I burst into tears.I wanted to jump out of my car and hug him！

You see that day he gave me more than a dollar bill，he taught me a valuable lesson.No matter what material things are taken from you，no one can take away your choice to be joyful.
