buy a book as a present.You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower.
Whatever the reason,you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings.
The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust_jacket is irresistible,although this method of
selection ought not to be followed,as you might end up with a rather dull book.
You soon become interested in some book or other,and usually it is only much later that you realize you
have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment-without buying
a book,of course.
This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is,I think,the main attraction of a bookshop.
There are not many places where it is possible to do this.A music shop is very much like a bookshop.You
can wander round such places to your heart"s content.If it is a good shop,no assistant will approach you
with the inevitable greeting:"Can I help you,sir?" You needn"t buy anything you don"t want.In a bookshop
an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing.Then,and only then,are his
services necessary.Of course,you may want to find out where a particular section is,but when he has led
you there,the assist
ant should retire discreetly (谨慎地) and look as if he is not interested in selling a singlebook.
You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop.It is very easy to enter
the shop looking for a book on,say ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest bestselling
novel and perhaps a book about brassrubbing-something which had only slightly interested you up till then.
This volume on the subject,however,happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read
proved so interesting that you just had to buy it.This sort of thing can be very dangerous.Apart from
running up a huge account,you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section.
B．a paper cover of a book
C．a dusty book

may be because I think I should do something,and I can also accept that it is unimportant.Sometimes I see negative things going on around me and think it doesn"t matter.As I started working on changing this in
myself,I came up with something that really works for me.
Not everything can intensely matter to us,or we will drive ourselves mad with concern and worry.
However,because procrastination(拖延)causes so many troubles in our lives,we can benefit from one
simple question.
When I think I should do something that perhaps I don"t really feel like doing,I may think it doesn"t
matter right now.Say,for example,that you think that you need to have your roof repaired.Then you think I should call someone and have it fixed.There may be many reasons or excuses and mixed emotions behind
the thought.Whatever you feel,you can convince yourself or accept that it doesn"t matter.Ask yourself this question,"When will it matter?"After you answer this question,you may become motivated(受鼓舞的)to
take the necessary steps.By asking and answering,this question can actually make you least resistant to
accomplish what you want.
I think that everything matters in life；some things just matter less than other things.Saying "It doesn"t
matter"or"I don"t care"is a lie.If something is bothering you,it is because it matters to you.Therefore,the next time you think something doesn"t matter,try the followup question.Perhaps the thing matters to you because you can see the consequence of ignoring it.Maybe by using the followup question you will see that it
"matters" to you now,and avoiding the issue is unlikely to make it matter less.
Taking action toward what matters to you is what makes the difference in your life.You have your
reasons for saying"It doesn"t matter"and asking when it will matter can help.I hope this suggestion will help you as much as it has helped me.
B. To analyze what is important in life.
C. To show how to ask a good question.
D. To share tips on overcoming procrastination.
B. becomes crazy when facing difficulties
C. believes everything matters to him
D. tries to make no mistakes
B. prove that the author isn"t good at organizing things
C. explain how negative feelings influence people"s attitude
D. remind readers to break the habit of making excuses
B. help people take things more seriously
C. lead to people"s being honest
D. offer more advice to people
B. Never say "It doesn"t matter" when you face anything.
C. By asking when it will matter,you can always be successful.
D. Challenge yourself as much as possible in your life.
No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words:I"m sorry.
Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say.1.________
It is not about winning.
Friendships aren"t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winner and a loser.When you start fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you "win" the fight by proving you"re right and he is
wrong, or by making him be the first to apologize.
In reality, you"ll both lose if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you"ll both win if you find a way to heal it.2.________
You may have heard the expression "His pride stood in the way". It is usually used to describe a person who is so determined to be "right" that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever.
3.________Remember:as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a
disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.
Take the first step.
Are you sick of fighting?Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship?
4.________You don"t have to take full responsibility for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings
were wrong.But you should find something you did or said that"s worth apologizing for.Maybe you"re sorry that you let the fight go for so long, or that you overre
acted to something your friend did.If you say you"re sorry, it"s like an invitation for your friend to do the same.5. ________
A. Then try to be the first to apologize.
B. Stop thinking about your pride.
C. It"s about taking some responsibility for the argument.
D. Don"t let this happen to a friendship you care about.
E. Here are some things to keep in mind.
F. There are some special cases when you shouldn"t be the one to apologize first.
G. Once you"ve both said it, you"ll both feel a million times better.
