Boys and girls, let’s begin our English class now. This time I want to talk about my family. Then I want you to say something about my families.

There are seven people in my family. They are my parents, my two sisters, my brother, my wife (妻子)and I. In England, a family like this is a big one. My father has a factory（工厂）. It isn’t very big. It makes all kinds of boats. My brother is a doctor. He works in a hospital(医院). His wife works in a hospital, too. She is a nurse. My two sisters are students. One want to be a teacher. She studies hard and well. The other likes singing very much and can sing very well. So she wants to be a singer(歌手). I’m now in China teaching English and learning Chinese. My mother stays at home. Can you guess (猜测)what she does at home? Yes, she does housework. She is a housewife.

1.Where do I come from?

A. China B. America C. England D. Canada

2. Where am I now ?

A. In China B. In America C. In England D. In Canada

3.Who works in a school in my family?

4. My brother and his wife work _________.

A. as teachers B. as nurses C. as doctors D. in a hospital

5.In Chinese “ housewife” means_________ .

When I was about 12, I had an enemy (敌人), a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings (缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin; I wasn’t a good student; I talked too much;  I was too proud (骄傲), and so on. I tried to hear all these 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. Then he asked, “Are the thing she said true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever think about what you are really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. 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. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could --- and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a very clear picture of myself.

     I brought the list back to Daddy. He wouldn’t like to take it. “That is just for you,” he said, “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you will find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do the right thing.”

      Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important periods. In my life, I have never had a better piece of advice.

1.Which do you think would be the best title (标题) for this passage?

A. Not An Enemy, But the Best Friend             B. The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had

C. My Father                                  D. My Childhood

B. he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping quiet for some time

C. he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment

D. he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth

3.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?

A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.

B. He criticized(批评) her and told her to overcome (克服) her shortcomings.

C. He told her to write down all that her “enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.

D. He wouldn’t like to take the list and have a look at it.

4.What does “I got a very clear picture of myself” mean?

B. I asked someone to draw a very clear picture of myself.

C. The picture I got this time was clearer than those I had got before.

D. I came to know myself very clearly this time.

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to(不注意) the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I found that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a quite clear picture of myself.
