—        I have to pick up my friend at the airport．

“So teach him to close the door”, my daughter Emma responded after listening to me 36  , again, about the dog coming in from the back door, bringing with him a blast of Buffalo January   37  air．

Teach a dog to close a door behind him? That has got to be a really, really   38   thing to do．But then she took it a step   39  ．“Come on, Kolby”, she said, grabbing some treats（犒劳物） and   40  him in front of the open door．“Touch．” And “touch” he did, which moved the door to a   41  position．She  42  him with a treat, smiled, looked at me, and said “see!” And I saw and became   43  ．Over the last few days I have been with Kolby．Each time he comes in I bring him back to the  44  door and ask him to close．There have been   45  in the beginning, but lately more and more successes．

However, there remains much work to be done．I have to get him to follow my hand signal again and again  46  he will close the door from a distance．But, I now realize, as long as you keep to the focus , the   47   will be completed, and, with the way things are   48  , completed quickly．

What a  49  treat to have a dog that can close the door after himself! Even more wonder can be found in the  50  I learned so clearly from both Emma and Kolby．

A wish is just a wish until you decide to take  51 ．Once you   52  the belief that it is “too hard”, then it remains “too hard ” and out of  53 ．Once you want to accomplish a goal, and  54  that it is “easy”, then it becomes “easy” to do what needs to be done．Just  55   doing it．

I really hadn't meant to yell（吼叫）at them．But that grey afternoon saw it just as my son and daughter were making a terrible mess on the floor in the kitchen．

With a tiresome report to write，I felt bothered at my desk．Suddenly, it occurred to me that my kids were at fault．A voice inside me insisted that I do something quickly．

“OK，you two here．but what an awful thing you are attempting!” shouting angrily, I made for them, while it became evident that the boy wanted no part of me．“Get away from us!” he shouted back，there being expression of support from his sister．

All of a sudden，I found the fault in myself．Quickly I shaped my hands into pincers（螃蟹螯）and crawled towards them，“Crabby（似螃蟹的）Daddy is here Ha，Ha，Ha，he likes to yell at children，and then eat them!” My son continued to keep me away，but now he was laughing and crying at the same time．My mission to repair the damage caused by my yelling seemed to work well．Still，I regretted not having controlled myself first in a right way that my children could do after．

Need I let them know how badly they were acting by blaming? This is a lesson that serves myself．It only shows just how to get rid of something（ill-feelings，responsibility）by blaming others．It's not my “best self”．

We have to search for our “best self” when with our children．They don't need perfect parents，but they do need parents who are always trying to get better．Here，I'm reminded of the words of a great thinker，“When a man lives with God，his voice shall be as sweet as the murmur of the brook…” Then，in our lifetime，couldn't we always speak to our kids in such a sweet voice since，most of us consider them as the most precious in the world? And before we reach this level，what should we do when we come across various difficult cases with our children?  

1.The author couldn't help yelling at his kids this time probably because______．

2.Which of the following made the author aware of his fault?

3.According to the passage the author will                           in another similar situation．

4.What will the writer go on to write about in the next paragraph（s）?

To switch or not to switch, that is the question．Google’s announcement of its Nexus One smartphone（智能手机） happened over a week ago and I’m still receiving lots of e-mails from readers asking the same question: Should they give up their iPhone for the Nexus One?

Some people with iPhones, disappointed by American Telephone&Telegraph’s inadequate service and the high monthly cost, are wondering if they have really got something to replace it．Does the Nexus One offer the functions that Apple has led them to expect?

I’m on the fence myself, even though I never thought I’d be interested in anything but the iPhone．From my experience using the Nexus One, and from talking to people who have made the change, it’s not necessarily about the differences between the iPhone and the Nexus One．The phones are extremely similar in design and general feel．Instead, the decision can be made based on the software（软件） services you use on your desktop．

My friend Chad Dickerson received a pre-launch Nexus One from Google three weeks ago．He said Google’s phone feels connected to certain services on the Web in a way the iPhone doesn’t．“Compared to the iPhone, the Google phone feels like it’s part of the Internet to me,” he said．“If you live in a Google world, you have that world in your pocket in a way that’s cleaner and more connected than the iPhone．”

Personally, the phones work perfectly with their own software, but both of them don’t make an effort to play well with other services．

1.Why are some iPhone users expecting a new type of phone?

2.What’s the author’s attitude towards the new phones in the third paragraph?

3.In Chad Dickerson’s opinion, the Nexus One is ________ the iPhone．

4.The best title of the passage might be ________．
