When I was about 12, a girl in my class liked to point out my problems. I was too thin; I wasn’t a good student; I talked too much; I was too 61 , and so on. At last, I became very angry and ran to my father.
He listened to me 62 . Then he asked, “Are these things true or not? Do you know what you are really like? Go and make a 63 of what she said and find the 64 that are true.”
I did he told me. To my great 65 . I discovered that about half of the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change(like being very thin). But there were things I could and wanted to change. For the 66 time, I got a clear 67 of myself.
I brought the list back to dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you.” He said. “You know the truth about 68 better than anyone else. When people say something that is true about you, you should find it helpful.”
Our world is full of people who think they know your business. Don’t 69 and feel 70 . Listen to them.

A passenger（旅客）told an air hostess that he needed a cup of water to take his medicine when the plane just took off. She told him that she would bring him the water in ten minutes.
The air hostess was kept so busy that she forgot to give him the water. As a result, the passenger was held up(延误) to take his medicine. Thirty minutes later, when the passenger’s ring for service sounded, she hurried over to him with a cup of water, but he refused.
In the following hours on the plane, each time the air hostess passed by the passenger, she would ask him with a smile whether he needed help or not. But the passenger never answered a word.
When he was going to get off the plane, the passenger asked the air hostess to hand him the passengers’ booklet（小册子）. She was very sad. She knew that he would write down sharp words, but with a smile she handed it to him.
Off the plane, she opened the booklet, and smiled, for the passenger put it. “On the flight, you asked me whether I needed help or not for twelve times in all. How can I refuse your twelve sincere smiles?”

“USA? Britain? Which country is the better to study in ?” We often hear such discussions. As China opens its door, it’s a dream for many Chinese students to study abroad. They want to learn about the outside world.
? It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs.
? But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time to learn another language.
? Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t done before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad running into an ocean of difficulties and giving up finally when they have to take care of themselves. It’s hard for students to study well.
? Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth ?
? We know that there are many famous people who have achieved success through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American coach invited him there, but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese coach. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympic Games. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, think it again.

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.
I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”
