A mouse looked through a hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package; what food might it contain? He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap!
Running to the farmyard,the mouse shouted,warning everyone,“There is a mouse trap in the house,there is a mouse trap in the house.”The chicken,with her head high,glared at the mouse and said,“Shut up.Little Ugly.This is a great concern to you,but it has nothing to do with me:I can’t be troubled by it.”
The mouse turned to the pig and told him.“There is a mouse trap in the house.”“I am so sorry,Mr Mouse,”said the pig sympathetically,“but there is nothing I can do about it but pray;you are always in my prayers.”
The mouse turned to the cow,who said,“A mouse trap,am I in great danger,huh?”
Now the mouse had to face the farmer’s mouse trap alone.
That very night a sound was heard through the house,like that of a mouse trap catching its prey.The farmer’wife rushed to see what was caught.In the darkness,she did not see it was a big poisonous snake whose tail the trap had caught.The snake bit the farmer’s wife.The farmer rushed her to the hospital.She returned home with a fever.It is said that drinking fresh chicken soup will help treat fever,so the farmer took his sharp knife to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient.His wife’s sickness continued,so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock.To feed them,the farmer killed the pig.The farmer’s wife did not get well,in fact,she died,and so many people came for her funeral.The farmer had the cow killed to provide for all of them to eat.
So next time when someone is facing a problem,don’t say that it has nothing to do with you.

Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.
Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt(嘗試)to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.
It is difficult to conclude about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly

  1. 1.

    What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?

    1. A.
      Love
    2. B.
      Politeness
    3. C.
      Joy
    4. D.
      Thankfulness
  2. 2.

    The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ______.

    1. A.
      show friendliness to strangers
    2. B.
      be used to hide true feelings
    3. C.
      be used in the wrong places
    4. D.
      show personal habits
  3. 3.

    What should we do before attempting to “read” people?

    1. A.
      Learn about their relations with others
    2. B.
      Understand their cultural backgrounds
    3. C.
      Find out about their past experience
    4. D.

I was loading (裝載) my truck to go to the market when I hurt my left eye. The pain was like a hot sword(劍) being shoved through my head. I fell down on my hands and knees, and I knew it was bad.
I was taken to the Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga, and the doctors operated on me several times but couldn’t save my left eye. When they told me the news, I wanted to die.
Even after I got my fake(假的) eye, I couldn’t shake the sadness. To make matters worse, I lost my job as a transportation officer because of my lost eye. But one morning, I woke up and the TV was on, and there was a 16-year-old girl who had been badly burned on her face and legs. Her situation was much worse than mine. She wore a big smile and seemed to look right at me and said, “You can’t ever give up.” At that moment, I thought, “This is just an eye. Get over it.” And I did.

Moral science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect. Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality is not a science, strictly speaking. It is too much of a social phenomenon, and also has too much of the personal and subjective things mixed within. Besides, morality itself changes with generations. So it is impossible to be defined in a textbook.
I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral lessons, which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness. It had little effect and left no impression on me, though.
If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools, it needs a participatory(參與其中的) approach. When you tell a child about morals, you also have to deal with social norms(規(guī)范)and cultural differences. You have to explain that morality can be subjective, and be able to co-exist in society. You will probably have to refer to the morals of the present time.
The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him what is valued. If a child likes his friend, you have to make the child think about why. Once the child notices and recognizes goodness in others, he or she is likely to develop it as well.
In fact, children learn most of their morals by watching people around them. They absorb behavior patterns from teachers and older students. They watch to see what is rewarded and who is punished. They learn on the sports field and through social work. Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact, and watch you support correct values and reward good behavior

  1. 1.

    Which is NOT the reason that moral science is taught in schools but with little effect?

    1. A.
      Morality doesn’t strictly belong to a science
    2. B.
      Morality is more like a social phenomenon
    3. C.
      Different generations have different moral ideas
    4. D.
      Morality can’t be written down in textbooks
  2. 2.

    The author describes his own experience of having moral lessons in order to______.

    1. A.
      explain telling lies is not moral for little children
    2. B.
      advise people should be rewarded for their goodness
    3. C.
      prove moral lessons in schools have little effect
    4. D.
      show he has no opinions about moral science
  3. 3.

    When you tell a child about morals, you should______.

    1. A.
      teach him to share personal moral ideas with others
    2. B.
      tell him about social norms and cultural differences
    3. C.
      explain that nobody can influence his moral ideas
    4. D.
      say that the present morals are likely to be changed
  4. 4.

    What is the last paragraph mainly about?

    1. A.
      The best way of teaching children about morals
    2. B.
      The value of teachers’ setting a good example
    3. C.
      The influence of people’s behavior on morals

Make Up Your Mind to Succeed
Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”
Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:
A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic – you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.
On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.
We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.

  1. 1.

    What does the author think about the present generation?

    1. A.
      They don’t do well at school.
    2. B.
      They are often misunderstood.
    3. C.
      They are eager to win in sports.
    4. D.
      They are given too much praise.
  2. 2.

    A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .

    1. A.
      doesn’t want to work hard
    2. B.
      cares a lot about personal safety
    3. C.
      cannot share his ideas with others
    4. D.
      can succeed with the help of teachers
  3. 3.

    What does the growth mind-set believe?

    1. A.
      Admitting failure is shameful.
    2. B.
      Talent comes with one’s birth.
    3. C.
      Scores should be highly valued.
    4. D.
      Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.
  4. 4.

    What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?

    1. A.
      Encourage them to learn from failures.
    2. B.
      Prevent them from making mistakes.
    3. C.
      Guide them in doing little things.
