Alice, my friend’s daughter, goes to an expensive private school where she has a friend, Jane, who is on a full scholarship at this school. Jane has 36 economic resources—her father has been dead for years and her mother works 37 a maid. Although her mother works very hard, she can 38 support the family. Jane is very bright and gifted at 39 and that’s how she has got the scholarship, which included a(n) 40 for things like lunch, school uniform and music lessons.
Alice became friends with Jane and would 41 talk to her at lunch. She did it that way in order to avoid the other kids 42 her.
On her birthday last month, she 43 her new friend to her birthday party, but Jane said she couldn’t come. Alice wanted her to be 44 so much that she 45 on her coming. Eventually, the girl said, “I don’t have any 46 clothes that I could wear at your birthday party.” After a brief pause, the girl remembered, “I have a 47 from my piano performance,” and asked, “Could I 48 a skirt from you?”
Alice was happy that her friend would be 49 to come and hurried home to ask her Mum 50 she could lend her friend one of her skirts. To her surprise, her Mum said, “No.” The daughter was very 51 and angrily said to her Mum, “ 52 I could, I would give my friend all my clothes.” The Mother didn’t understand why her daughter should have had such an outburst as she’s normally very well 53 .
Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend’s 54 . Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said, “Yes.” She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her 55 with her.
So the true friendship seeks to give, not to take; to help, not to be helped; to minister, not to be ministered unto.

It’s only too natural that personal characteristics play a vital role in the development of one's intelligence. But people 36 to realize the importance of cultivating (培养) these factors. The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s 37 , will, motivation, interests and habits. In their studies American psychologists 38 the main cause of differences in intelligence is not intelligence itself, but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn, will-power and self-confidence.
39 people know one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t 40 cultivating these factors.
Some parents are 41 when their children fail to do well in their studies. They blame either genetic factors, malnutrition, or laziness, but they never take 42 consideration these non-intelligence factors. Some teachers don’t inquire into such reasons as 43 students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or 44 scold or laugh at them. After all these, students lose self-confidence. Some 45 themselves up as hopeless, feeling defeated. Others 46 take wrong or evil ways because they are sick of learning. An investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students showed that 46.5% of them were 47
of learning because of examinations; 36.4% lacked persistence and 10.3% were sick of learning.
It is clear that 48 of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main 49__ to intelligence development in teenagers. It even causes an imbalance between physiological and 50 development among students.
If we don’t start now to 51 the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only block the development of 52 of teenagers, but also affect the quality of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward 53 about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors.
Parents and teachers should 54 understand teenage psychology. On this basic, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning, 55 their interests in their studies and toughening their willpower.

When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
When India had not 36 its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. 37 , we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still, her answer 38 me: “Green tea.” As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink 39 tea. I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and 40 home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both 41 newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder 42 for all illnesses.
43 the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the 44 Indian. It was a strange country. Now every town of 45 size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China. How things 46 ! And how soon! The government of India has planned to send a team to 47 to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment and such a step 48 “work wonders as it did for China”.
But it’s a 49 street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to 50 in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China. 51 that trade , which was only in the millions just ten years ago, 52 hit about US$20 billion for last year and US$25 billion by 2009, a goal 53 by both governments. No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this 54 the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
But what is still a 55 to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.

Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a 36 part of the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow this 37 right to our children.
When I see a child 38 to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie.
Donnie was my youngest third grader. His 39 of failure kept him from classroom games that other children enjoyed. He 40 answered questions — he might be wrong.
I tried my best to build his 41. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned(安排)to our classroom.
She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included, 42 her.
One morning, we were working math problems at the chalkboard. Donnie had 43 the problems with painstaking neatness. Pleased with his progress, I 44 the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in 45 . He’d missed the third problem.
My student teacher looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face 46. From the desk we shared, she got a container filled with pencils.
"Look, Donnie," she said, kneeling beside him and gently 47 the tear stained face from his arms. "I’ve got something to 48 you." She removed the pencils, one at a time, and placed them on his desk.
"See these 49 , Donnie," she continued. "They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are 50 ? That’s because we make mistakes too. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That’s what you 51 learn to do, too."
She kissed him and stood up. "Here," she said, "I’ll leave one of these pencils on 52 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 53 teachers." Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile.
The pencil became Donnie’s 54 possession. That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 55 him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again.

There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people 36 to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you 37 is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you 38 others. Because while there will be times 39 outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely 40 . The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are 41 . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision 42 anyway.
You were 43 with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and 44 the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone
against your own 45 .
Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of 46 a few important business decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the 47 necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to 48 on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being 49 to Wall Street, I intended to assume that my more senior 50 knew more than I did, and so I 51 too much significance to their opinions.
You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in 52 . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by 53 and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to 54 this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to 55 and to life.

Angels
My friend Heather mentioned that she had never seen an Angel. Then I remembered the 36 I had with my sister Sandra earlier this week.
This will be Sandra’s first Christmas without her husband. This summer he died in her arms. On Thursday, she was in the store 37 for an ideal card for her two sons and daughter. Time passed by quickly as she 38 the many choices. She wanted a card that sent something special to each of them, 39 she knew they would have a(n) 40 place in their heart this holiday season.
Finally! She found the one that expressed the 41 feeling. The words expressed the feelings that she wished to share. However, a sharp pain pierced(穿透) her heart when she realized that the card was 42 “mom and dad.” She stood there, 43 it close for a long time, unable to move from the 44 . Tears began to run down her cheeks.
“Is there something I can do for you?” a 45 voice asked. She 46 to face a stranger, a woman, who was looking at her with 47 and concern. “Uh…oh...OH!” Sandra responded, “I can’t give this card to my children because…because my husband died and this is the 48 card.”
Hearing this, the stranger’s face softened with sympathy(同情) and love. She reached out and 49 my sister into her arms, giving her unspoken permission to cry in the protection of her embrace(拥抱). She 50 held my sister until her calmness 51 . “Thank you for listening to me cry on,” was what my sister said when all was better. “You are welcome, and I am so sorry for your 52 ,” the stranger answered and said goodbye to her.
During her telling of this event I was feeling 53 that I hadn’t been there. My sister needed me and a stranger had to do my 54 . “You know,” she went on, “a friend suggested that it was like meeting with an Angel.” My 55 disappeared in an instant. My sister required an Angel, and I think that is exactly what she got.
