Isn't it amazing how one person, sharing one idea, at the right time and place can change the course of your life's history?When I was 14, I was a high school_1_with learning disabilities. One day I met an old man, a bum (流浪汉). He asked me if I was running away from home, because I looked so_2_.Then he told me he had something grand to show me and_3_with me.We walked to the downtown Library. The bum first brought a couple of old 4 and then started with a few 5 that were very special and that changed my life.He said, "There are two things I want to 6 you.Number one is to never 7 a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you." He followed with, "I'll 8 you think I'm a bum, don't you?" "Yes, I 9 so, sir." Well, young man, I've got a little 10 for you.I am one of the 11 men in the world.I have probably everything any man could ever want.But a year ago, my wife 12 , and since then I have been deeply 13 on life.I realized there were certain things I had not yet experienced in life, one of 14 was what it would be like to live like a bum on the streets.For the past year, I have been going from city to city doing just that.So, you see, don't ever judge a book by its cover, for a cover can fool you. "Number two is to learn how to 15 .For there is only one thing that people can't 16 away from you, your wisdom."He 17 my right hand and put it upon the books he'd 18 from the shelves, the writings of Plato and Aristotle's everlasting 19 from ancient times. His 20 request was for me to never forget what he taught me. I haven't. | ||||

阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。
首先,请阅读以下专家的解答:
A.First, let' s talk about your boyfriend.If he' s laughing at you about it and won' t stop (even after you've talked to him about the fact that it hurts and annoys you) then you might need to stop being friends with him. If he really doesn't care about how he is hurting you, then he's not good enough to be your boyfriend. Second, if that girl is bothering you and threatening to beat you up you really need to turn to an adult for help. If you can't feel safe at school, you can't concentrate and will get poor grades, which will affect your future.
B.It' s true that your first year in high school is important. It's a fresh start with your grades and it affects the rest of your high school years, but if you just stay calm, optimistic, and focused, you'll do fine. There's really no need to worry about grades as long as you work hard. Try to stay happy and confident. I think a good way to get an extra confidence boost is to wear your favorite clothes.
C.You' re already on the right track by knowing what you want to change about yourself and why you feel the way you do. Understanding yourself is a big step! One good thing to do is to hang out with people a lot like you. If you have more in common with someone, then it is much easier to talk to them. Usually when you feel comfortable around a group of people, your confidence increases a lot.
D.What I've discovered from my years of school changing is that confidence is the key to a good first day. Make sure you're not too threatening to your new classmates in any way, and it usually helps to be twice as nice as usual. Just smile and try to have fun. Also, about the clothes, wear something cute with bright colors. Then you'll look good, but you won' t have too many eyes on you all at once. Good luck and have fun!
E.Usually it helps your grades if your family life is less of a challenge. If you get better grades and quit running up high phone bills, you would get along better with your parents. Getting along with your parents is pretty important.They've been through a lot and are usually good people to go to for help. So try your best to get along with your family.
F.If you don't feel pretty, remember that everyone looks different. There are different kinds of "pretty”, believe it or not. Some people have great smiles, some have great hair, and some have nice eyes. Pay more attention to the parts of you that you like and pay less attention to what you don't like.

This topic is about greeting in China.A few years ago, people would greet each other with the words “Have you had your breakfast or lunch or supper?” “Yes, how about you?” Then politely, both would leave with a smile on their faces.
This kind of greeting tells us what people cared about many years ago.For many years, having enough to eat was the most important thing for the Chinese people.The life of most people in China has become much better now.They do not worry about their food and clothing any more.The greeting has changed to “What are you going to do?” or “Where are you going?”
Though the greeting has no other meaning than saying hello, it often puzzles other people who are not familiar with China.Nowadays, more and more people are using “How are you?” to greet each other.It is certainly the best way for people to say hello to each other.
