I like to give my praise to anyone whenever and wherever I can. I"ll tell you why.
It was the end of my first day as a waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had been lost, and my feet  36  . The loaded plates I was carrying  37  to be heavier and heavier. Tired and  38  , I didn"t seem able to do anything right. As I made out a check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream  39  a dozen times, I was ready to  40  . Then the father smiled at me as he handed me my tip. "Well done," he said, "you"ve looked after us really well."   41  my tiredness disappeared. I  42  back, and later, when the manager asked me how I"d  43  my first day, I said, "  44  !" Those few words of  45  had changed everything. Praise is like sunlight to the human  46  ; we can not flower and grow without it. And yet,   47  moat of us are only too ready to  48  to others the cold wind of criticism, we are  49  to give our fellows the warm  50  of praise. Why one word of praise can bring such pleasure?
It"s  51  how chary(吝惜的) we are about praising. Perhaps it"s because few of us know how to accept it. It"s especially  52  to give praise in areas in which effort generally goes  53 
or unmentioned. Do you, however,   54  tell your laundry(洗衣店) manager how pleased you are when the shirts are done just right? In fact, to give praise costs the giver  55  but a moment"s though and a moment"s effort.

A
I remember a day when I was a little kid. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen when I noticed the date on one of the wine bottles.
"Dad, dad!" I cried. "This wine is too old to drink."
"Son, hold on," he said.
"No, you can"t drink this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago."
"Wait, let me tell you..."
"Would you like me to throw it away for you?" I asked.
"Son, wait a second," he said. "Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true."
When I was young, I didn"t have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years.
In our society, we forget this simple role: The longer you wait for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance.
We all want to get to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don"t get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our class-work, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life.
56.Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine?
A.Because it smelt terrible.
B.Because it was mixed with something else.
C.Because his father drank too much that night.
D.Because it had been kept for years.
57.What the author"s father said______.
A.made the author puzzled when he was a little child
B.was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author
C.threw the author into deep thought then
D.was an excuse to drink the wine
58.In the author"s opinion, if we do things too quickly we will______.
A.do it better                                                                 B.save much time
C.graduate from college more quickly          D.miss something useful to us in life
59.Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the passage?
A.Well begun is half done.                      B.More haste, less speed.
C.Failure is the mother of success.      D.Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

Dear Michelle,
My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses(骂人).I love her but I am ashamed of her.I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal,but it will be 5 years before I am 18 and legal. What am I supposed to do until then?
Prisoner of a Crazy House
Dear 7th Grader,
I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feeings about her may change as you get older and mature(成熟).
While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner,not a loser.
I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing, So,keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits.
At the same time,try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes.
Unfortunately, you are not alone.Many teens live in homes with immature,misguided, selfish parents. Those kids often feel lonely and separate from the rest of their friends because of their parents’ terrible deeds.
But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school,and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference!
Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own fine future.Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how surprising you really are.
Best luck!
Michelle

Not long before,my daughler,s shoes were scratched(划破)with a knife.She burst illto

His master looked at them and said,“If you   23   me,1 will add more scratches on both the shoes.”
