Most of what I really need to know about how to live, and what to do, and how to be, I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery school.

These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don’t hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don’t take things that aren’t yours. Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work some every day.

Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.

Goldfish and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup – they all die. So do we.

And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all :LOOK. Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation, ecology and politics and sane living.

Think of what a better world it would be if we all – the whole world – had cookies and milk about 3 o’clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation and other nations to always put things back where we found them and clean up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.

1．In this passage, the author intends to           .

      A．inform the readers of what he learned in kindergarten

       B．show the importance of enlightening (启蒙) education

       C．call on people to hold hands and stick together

       A．The author wonders why the roots go down and plants go up.

       B．A person should be curious about plants.

       C．The author likes seeding in the plastic cup.

       D．Everything develops in its natural way.

3．What didn’t the author learn to do while in kindergarten?

       A．Cook cookies and dishes.

       B．Keep the things he used in place.

       C．Look out for traffic.

       D．Make an apology to someone he hurt.

4．We can infer from the passage that the author            .

      A．must be a success thanks to the good habits.

       B．has learned to share everything with others

       C．expects harmony and unity

       D．is at an old age now

5．In which column of a magazine can you probably find the passage?

       A．Popular Science.                                  B．Entertainment.

       C．Fashion.                                             D．Life Guide.
