　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one’s mistakes. It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that, ”and it is even harder to say, “I was wrong, and you were right about that. ”

　　I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He told me he had been the manager of a certain grocery store in the neighborhood where I grew up, and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (箱子). Then he related an incident and I began to remember clearly the incident he was describing.

　　I was about eight years old at the time, and I had gone into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping. On that particular day, I must have found my way to the dairy food department where the incident took place.

　　There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was an impressive display of eggs in dozen and half－dozen cartons. The cartons were stacked three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of a display to admire the stacks. Just then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the stacks of cartons. For some reason, I decided it was up to me to put the display back together, so I went to work.

　　The Manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared, I was on my knees inspecting (examining)some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as though I was the criminal. He severely scolded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs. I protested my innocence and tried to explain, but it did no goo Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident, obviously the manager did not.

Jascha Richter once sang “don't need too much talking without saying anything” to reveal his lonely feeling in a crowd．

Dad always told me never to ever reveal my true opinions towards other people if such opinions are negative．He said this is the “Chu Shi Zhe Xue”, the philosophy of dealing with social network．

It seems that everybody here just follows this philosophy very, very well．

Friends．I would say that if I were given true friendship I would definitely treasure it with my greatest care．If I really regard someone as my close friend, I would never leave her alone whenever she's in need, either financially or mentally．And I always believe, as long as I treat people with whole-hearted honesty, I would have some rewards—at least, just ONE true friend of the same gender（性别）．

Sometimes I just miss my friends in China．Perhaps when we became friends, we were still young, too young to have been polluted by any dirt in the society．But here, it is simply different．It seems that all of us have learnt how to SURVIVE in a foreign land and such an experience actually makes us learn how to extract （榨取） the most benefits from the surroundings in order to survive．

All are friends around me．I've looked through all the dark sides of their personalities and yet I have to pretend that I know nothing．THEY ARE GOOD．THEY ARE GOO D．AND WE ARE FRIENDS．And then I can make myself comfortable enough to talk to people I hate the most．And of course, they don't say any words truly from their hearts．Neither do I．

But, sometimes I just feel unwilling to talk to these people．Sometimes, I just want to be alone, quietly, without being forced to listen to their gossip or other useless words．

“Standing on a mountain high

Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky

I should go and see some friends

But they don't really comprehend”
