A god has a horse. The horse was beautiful and also it had many good qualities.   1    It especially wanted to become the most beautiful horse in the world.

One day the horse said to the god, “You have given me beauty. You have given me other good qualities.2   But how I wish you could make me more beautiful! I would be extremely, extremely grateful if you could make me more beautiful.”

The god said, “I’m more than ready to make you more beautiful.  3  ” Then the horse said, “My neck is too short .If you can make neck a little longer, my upper body will be more beautiful. And if you can make my legs much longer and thinner, then I will look more beautiful in my lower body.”

Then immediately the god made a camel appear in place of the horse. The horse was so sad that it started to cry, “Oh, no, I do not want to become a camel.  4 As a horse, everybody appreciated my good qualities. Nobody will appreciate me as a camel.”

The god said, “This is exactly  what you asked for. You have become a camel.

5   if you cry for a longer neck and legs, this is what will happen. Each thing in my creation has its own good qualities. The camel is not as beautiful as you are, but it carries heavy loads and has a great sense of duty.”

E.  But it wanted to be more perfect in every way.

F.  Never try to receive more than I have given you

G.  I am glad to know that you feel good with yourself now

We often focus on building relationships with others so that we forget the essential first step: being friends of ourselves. That is the crucial first step if we are to have good relationships with others. How can we have good relationships with others if we don't even have good relationship with ourselves? The problem might be worse than we expect. Maybe we don't like ourselves without realizing it.

For example, maybe you have made mistakes in the past which you feel bad about. You might be disappointed with yourself on why you could make such mistakes. Even if that happened in distant past, your subconscious (潜意识) mind still has a reason not to like yourself.

You might wish that you were born in different family, or that you have different background. Maybe you could not accept the fact that you are not as lucky as others, who seem to get whatever they want effortlessly because of their background.

You might have some personal traits that you don't like. For example, you may be an introvert ( 内向的人) and you don't like it; you wish you are an extrovert (外向的人).

Your achievements relate to others. They might have better achievements than you, and no matter how hard you tried, it might seem impossible for you to match them. You might then think that it's because you are not smart enough or don't have enough talents.

Is there anything that resonates (产生共鸣) with you? All these give reasons to you not to like yourself. That in turn makes it difficult for you to be a good friend to yourself.

Fortunately, there are always things you can do to fix the situation. Here are some tips:

1. Forgive yourself.

2. Accept things you can't change.

3. Focus on your strengths.

4. Write your success stories.

5. Stop comparing yourself with others.

6. Always be true to yourself.

59. The underlined word "traits" in the fourth paragraph probably means

A. particular qualities                       B. some disadvantages

C. special abilities                           D. training courses

60. One can't be friends with himself because

A. he won't forgive others' mistakes

B. he dislikes his background

C. he accepts some of his personal traits

D. he is proud of himself

61. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Resonating is very important for making friends.

B. How to make friends with ourselves is very difficult.

C. Writing your success contributes to stopping comparing with others.

D. Realizing your own advantages and good is good to you.

62. Which of the following is NOT mentioned according to the passage?

A. It's normal to make mistakes, so do yourself a favor by giving yourself forgiveness.

B. You will feel much relaxed if you treat things you can't change the way they are.
