     Santi"s big brother Len had told him never to push all the remote control buttons at the same time. He
said that something terrible would happen if  he did. Santi didn"t really believe this. While Len was out of
the room, Santi jumped down on the sofa with the remote control in his hand. For a while, he changed
from channel to channel, looking for something interesting to watch. Bored, Santi decided to see what
Len could have meant. 
     With a quick glance (扫视) over his shoulder to make sure Len hadn"t come back,he pushed all the
buttons at once. Santi saw a bright flash,and he dropped the remote control. "I"ve broken it,"he thought.
"Now I"m in trouble!" As he looked around for the remote control,he realized he was in more trouble
than he"d thought. He was suddenly only the size of a mouse.
     "Oh, no!" Santi shouted. He had to find his parents quickly. Carefully, he climbed down the side of
the huge sofa and hurried across the floor. In the kitchen, Santi could see that the sliding door (滑门) had
been left open. "If the door is open, then the cat might be in here," tiny Santi said.
     Just then, Santi and the cat saw each other. Santi ran for the door, the cat closing in quickly behind
him. Just as the cat reached out to attack Santi, it slipped (打滑) on some water and slid across the
kitchen floor. Out of breath, Santi hid behind a flowerpot in the corridor. He could see his mum far away
in the garden. "How will I ever get there?" he wondered. As he looked out from behind the flowerpot,
there was the huge cat looking right at him! Santi rushed for the garden and then…, he woke up. "It was
only a dream!" he said with a relieved smile. "Thank goodness!"

     When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings (缺点).
Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn"t a good
student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with (忍受) her 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, and then he asked, "Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn"t you
ever wonder what you"re really like? 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 and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.
     I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. "That"s just for you," he said. "You know
better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you"ll find it
will be helpful to you. Don"t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think
is right."
     Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with
some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure (珍惜)
all your life!

       A young man went to the local expert(专家) on gems and said he wanted to become a gemologist
(珠宝家). The expert turned him down because he feared the youth would not have the patience to
learn. The young man asked for a chance. Finally, the expert told the youth, "Be here tomorrow."
       The next morning the expert put a jade(玉) stone in the youth"s hand and told him to hold it. The
expert then went about his work, cutting, weighing and setting gems. The boy sat quietly and waited.
       The following morning the expert again put the jade stone in the youth"s hand and told him to hold
it. On the third, fourth and fifth days, the expert asked the young man to do the same thing. On the sixth
day, the youth held the jade stone but he could no longer stand(忍受) the silence. "Master, when am I
going to learn something?" he asked.
       "You will learn," the expert said and went about his business.
Several more days went by and the youth almost lost his patience. But one morning as the master put
the stone in the youth"s hand, the young man said without looking at his hand, "This is not the same jade
stone!"
       "You have begun to learn," said the master.
       Practice makes perfect. The experience we learned from practice teaches us and develops our
abilities. Experience is the best teacher. Even the most successful person had no absolute confidence
once. It is experience that gives people confidence. The truth is: if you do the work and gain the
experience, you"ll have more confidence because you"ll actually know what you"re doing.

young man was _______.
