Two things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long and hard about it and it¡¯s true. I would be a different person if my mom hadn¡¯t turned a silly bicycle accessory into a life lesson I carry with me today.
My mother and father were united in their way of raising children, but it mostly fell to my mother to actually carry it out. Looking back, I honestly don¡¯t know how she did it. Managing the family budget must have been a very hard task, but she made it look effortless. If we complained about not having what another kid did, we¡¯d hear something like, ¡°I don¡¯t care what so-and-so got for his birthday, you are not getting a TV in your room/a car for your birthday/alavish sweet-16 party.¡± We had to earn our allowance (ÁãÓÃÇ®) by doing chores around the house. I can still remember how long it took to polish the legs of our coffee table.My brothers can no doubt remember hours spent cleaning the house.Like the two little girls growing up at the White House,we made our own beds (no one left the house until that was done)and picked up after ourselves.We had to keep track of our belongings,and if something was lost,it was not replaced.
It was summer and,one day,my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixed¡ªand there it was in the window. White, shiny, plastic and decorated with flowers,the basket winked at me and I knew¡ªI knew¡ªI had to have it.
¡°It¡¯s beautiful,¡± my mother said when I pointed it out to her,¡°What a neat basket.¡±
I tried to hold off at first,I played it cool for a short while. But then I guess I couldn¡¯t stand it any longer:¡°Mom, please can I please,please get it? I¡¯ll do extra chores for as long as you say. I¡¯ll do anything,but I need that basket,I love that basket.Please,Mom.Please?¡±
I was desperate.
¡°You know,¡± she said,gently rubbing my back while we both stared at what I believed was the coolest thing ever,¡°If you save up you could buy this yourself.¡±
¡°By the time I make enough it¡¯ll be gone!¡±
¡°Maybe Roger here could hold it for you,¡± she smiled at Roger,the bike guy.
¡°He can¡¯t hold it for that long,Mom.Someone else will buy it .Please, Mom,Please?¡±
¡°There might be another way,¡± she said.
And so our paying plan unfolded. My mother bought the beautiful basket and put it safely in some hiding place I couldn¡¯t find. Each week I eagerly counted my growing savings increased by extra work here and there (washing the car,helping my mother make dinner, delivering or collecting things on my bike that already looked nakedwithout the basket in front).And then,weeks later,I counted,re-counted and jumped for joy. Oh,happy day ! I made it! I finally had the exact amount we¡¯d agreed upon¡.
Days later the unthinkable happened. A neighborhood girl I¡¯d played with millions of times appeared with the exact same basket fixed to her shiny,new bike that already had all the bells and whistles. I rode hard and fast home to tell my mother about this disaster. This horrible turn of events.
And then came the lessonI¡¯ve taken with me through my life:¡°Honey, Your basket is extra-special,¡± Mom said, gently wiping away my hot tears.¡°Your basket is special because you paid for it yourself.¡±

One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word £¢Poems£¢ appeared in big, hot pink letters.
£¢Is it good?£¢ I asked her.
£¢Yeah,£¢ she answered. £¢There¡¯s one I really like and you¡¯ll like it, too.£¢ I leaned forward.
£¢¡®Patty Poem,¡¯£¢ she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
Just leaves them scattered¢Ù where they lay,¡ ¢ÙÉ¢ÂÒµÄ
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
When she grows and gathers poise¢Ú, ¢ÚÎÈÖØ
I¡¯ll miss her harum-scarum¢Û noise, ¢ÛçײµÄ
And look in vain¢Ü for scattered toys. ¢ÜͽÀ͵Ø
And I¡¯ll be sad.
A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.
£¢It¡¯s you, honey,£¢ My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent¡¯s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the £¢she£¢ in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I burst out crying.
£¢What¡¯s wrong?£¢ my mother asked.
£¢Oh Mama,£¢ I cried. £¢I don¡¯t want to grow up ever!£¢
She smiled. £¢Honey, it¡¯s okay. You¡¯re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I¡¯ll still love you, okay?£¢
£¢Okay,£¢ I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person¡¯s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but £¢Patty Poem£¢ remains my poem. After all, £¢Patty Poem£¢ gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.
1. Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?
A. It was a thick enough book.
B. Something on its cover caught her eye.
C. Her mother was reading it with interest.
D. It has a meaningful title.
2. After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt ______ at first.
A. sad B. excited
C. horrified D. confused
3. The writer¡¯s mother liked to read £¢Patty Poem£¢ probably because______.
A. it reflected her own childhood
B. it was written in simple language
C. it was composed by a famous poet
D. it gave her a hint of what would happen
4. It can be concluded from the passage that£¢Patty Poem£¢leads the writer to _______.
A. discover the power of poetry
B. recognize her love for puzzles
C. find her eagerness to grow up
D. experience great homesickness

How to Be a Good Friend
A good friend, who wouldn¡¯t want one? Ever felt like yours just not good enough but don¡¯t know where to improve?__ 1.___ I used to annoy a lot of my friends before, just for the sake of having fun and from that, I¡¯ve learned how to be a good friend, and stay as a good friend.
Listen.
No one likes being interrupted when they¡¯re talking. So, when someone talks, keep yourself quiet and listen to them, especially if they¡¯re feeling down, you need to be the shoulder for them to cry on. If you have any comment to make, be sure that you word it in a way where you don¡¯t sound too negative.__ 2.__ When you just don't share the same interest or you¡¯re not in the mood to listen to them, politely let them know and ask them to understand.
Always smile.
_3.___ The least you can do is, whenever you see your friends, smile and say hello. That way, if they had a bad day, you can make them feel better with your smile along with your ear, and maybe, you can share something funny to cheer them up.
Don¡¯t ever lie.
Everyone would hate being lied to, especially if it¡¯s by your own friend, so don't lie! It might seem alright to lie occasionally, but once you lose your friend¡¯s trust, you may lose them forever. __4.____
Keep secrets.
Make sure you can keep a secret. If not, tell your friends straight away you cannot help yourself when it comes to secrets. Otherwise, when you let them tell you about their secrets and you ¡°accidentally¡± share it with someone else, you¡¯ll have your friends hating you for the rest of your life. __5.____ Secrets are not meant to be shared, so don¡¯t even try.
A.Everyone has their bad days, and it¡¯s unavoidable.
B.And that is something you surely do not want to happen.
C.They¡¯ll probably call you ¡°big mouth¡±.
D.A few people seem upset at you for being so direct.

G.Well, you¡¯ve come to the right place.

Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger¡¯s personality simply by looking at the person¡¯s shoes.
¡°Shoes convey a thin but useful slice of information about their wearers,¡± the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality. ¡°Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal indications with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.¡±
Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits detected in the study include a person¡¯s general age, their gender, income, political affiliation(Åɱð), and other personality characteristics, including someone¡¯s emotional stability.
Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone¡¯s shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study¡¯s participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.
So, what do your shoes say about your personality?
Some of the results were expected: People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by extroverts(ÍâÏòÕß).
However, some of the more specific results are interesting. For example, ¡°practical and functional¡± shoes were generally worn by more ¡°agreeable¡± people, while ankle boots were more closely aligned with ¡°aggressive¡± personalities.
The strangest of all may be that those who wore ¡°uncomfortable looking¡± shoes tend to have ¡°calm¡± personalities.
And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them, you may suffer from ¡°attachment anxiety¡±, spending a large amount of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance. There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal types wearing ¡°shabbier and less expensive¡± shoes.
The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality traits, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personalities.
1.We can infer from Paragraph 2 that___________.
A. shoes are vital to their wearers
B. a practical purpose is to wear shoes
C. people want to buy new shoes they pay attention to
D. shoes may give away their wearers¡¯ information
2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A. People with high incomes probably wear expensive shoes.
B. Ankle boots are closely aligned with ¡°aggressive¡± personalities£®
C. People wearing ¡°uncomfortable looking¡± shoes tend to be calm
D. People who wear practical and functional shoes may be hard to deal with
3.The underlined word ¡°attachment anxiety¡±, probably means ___________.
A. Attached happiness to one¡¯s personality.
B. Feeling always worried about everything.
C. Often feeling worried about his or her appearance.
D. Wasting an inordinate amount of time.
4.Which might be the best title for the passage?
A. Bad Shoes, Bad Personality.
B. People Are What They Wear.
C. How To Choose Suitable Shoes
D. Shoes Reflect A Person¡¯s Personalities.
