To this day, I don¡¯t remember what the argument was about .I just remembered that it was a good one.

I really loved my parents .I gave them no trouble and in turn they helped me a lot. Best of all, I mostly had free use of our second car that I called The Dragon. But sometimes she needed it. And that¡¯s what Mom and I were arguing about as we stood there at the front door of the condo(¹«Ô¢×â·¿) It was really the only thing she and I ever argued about .

That would explain why we were standing at the front door. I almost never used it because the back door was closer to where the cars were parked. So if I was it the front door, that meant I was coming in front having walked. But I¡¯m not much of a walker .

Whatever we were arguing about, the words got heated enough to attract Dad¡¯s attention, and he wandered over to the front door and stood behind Mom .That was sort of how it worked in our family .Mom was the one who would discipline the children and I don¡¯t remember him ever refusing anything Mom had decided.

So mom and I was arguing and during argument I called my Mom a ¡­No sooner had that word escaped, my lips but I felt the strong hand of my father against my cheek . It was the only time I can remember my father striking me. We all stood there ,staring at each other . Finally I looked my Dad directly in the eye.¡± I deserved that ,¡±I said.

I really believed that. Mom had kept telling me before : ¡°You can choose your actions, but you can¡¯t choose the results of your actions.¡± We make choices, which affect others, and they react. Recognizing that our choices have consequences is a good lesson that life teaches us.

We usually don¡¯t mind when people call us by positive nicknames.1.But when people call us by cruel nicknames, it can be difficult to get them to stop. So what should you do?

Ask your friends to stop. Maybe you tripped(°íµ¹£©over your feet a few times, and your friends started calling you klutz, thinking that you don¡¯t really mind.2.

Leave a nicknames behind. Sometimes, life gives us a chance to start fresh3.If you¡¯re moving from elementary school to middle school, let your friends know that don¡¯t want to go by your old nickname.

Ignore those who call you by a nickname. If the kids calling you by a bad nickname aren¡¯t your friends, you should do your best to ignore them.4.It may be hard to pretend that it doesn¡¯t hurt, but if you get angry or obviously upset, it will just encourage them to use the nickname all the time.

5.Remember that if you have a bad nickname now, you probably won¡¯t be stuck with it. Just look at Elvis Presley! When he first started singing on stage, he wiggled(°Ú¶¯£©his hips so much that cruel critics and the audience nicknamed him Elvis The Pelvis. He never stopped wiggling. People soon found it impossible to ignore his talent and began to call him The King of Rock & Roll.

A. If it does bother you, tell them.

B. Believe that things will change.

C. If the kids refuse to stop, talk to your teacher.

D. It feels good when these nicknames are repeated.

E. Although words can be hurtful, they can¡¯t change who you really are.

F. The chance can be a good time to get rid of a nickname that you don¡¯t like.

G. If you act like they aren¡¯t hurting you, they¡¯ll eventually get bored and stop.

If you¡¯re encouraged by the tiny house movement and think 160 square feet is just enough for your needs, you may want to contact the Academy of Construction and Design (ACAD) at IDEA Public Charter School in northeast Washington.

Students in the program built a micro house with a kitchen, a bathroom, a sleeping loft with space for a queen-size bed and a storage loft, all set on a trailer for mobility. The exterior of the house was part of a continuous living exhibit in 2015 and was moved to the IDEA campus so students could work with builders to complete the interior earlier this year.

McMahon said the D. C. government¡¯s approval to push companies to hire District residents was at odds with the school system not preparing students for careers in construction, exploring or electrical work. McMahon gathered industry and community leaders to establish ACAD in 2005, and he said 100 percent of the companies he contacted responded positively to the idea, including major firms such as JBG, Clark Construction, Hines Construction and Boston Properties.

¡°When students make the connection between what they are learning a potential career, their academics improve dramatically,¡± said Carol Randolph, chief operating officer of the D. C. Students Construction Trades Foundation. ¡°Some of them who didn¡¯t think college was an option now have a better chance because their classes have become relevant to a job.¡±

¡°We teach them life skills and explain that even if you start as a laborer, there are opportunities to move up quickly,¡± he said. ¡°We rewrite the story for them and explain that they can work for a few years, make good money, get promoted, and start their own business or go to school with less debts.¡±

¡°Parents and school advisor can be the biggest obstacles because of the negative idea of construction as a blue-collar career,¡± Karriem said. ¡°I get middle-school advisor on board to talk about the opportunities this education provides. These kids are learning lifelong skills that can help them in other fields, provide them with income and allow them to take care of their homes.¡±

1.What might be the main purpose of the first paragraph?

B. To show IDEA Public Charter School.

C. To introduce the tiny house movement.

D. To get in touch with the ACAD organization.

2.What is the program of building a micro house aimed at?

A. Experiencing living in the tiny house.

B. Improving cooperating with related companies.
