举一反三

阅读理解     When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness , who possess wings of their
own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate (照亮) me and train me up for
love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours , too good not to share.
     When I was in the eighth grade.l had a friend. We were shy and "too serious" about our studies
when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said
little at school,but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and  paper , and
one of us  would  say , " Let"s start with a train whistle today. " We would sit quietly together and write
separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end
of that school year,we, too, were changed into social creatures and the
stories and poems stopped.
     When I lived for a time in London,l had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But
our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this
great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many
excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted.We gave London to each
other.
     For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose ilnagination illuminates mine. We write
long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears,sometimes in a funny way,
in  the other"s  dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times,we seem to be parts of the same mind. In
my most interesting moments,l often think "Yes . I must tell. . ." We have never met.
      It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me
than the lifetime services  of a psychologist (心理学家 ) , who will only fill  up  the. healing(愈合的)
silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.

阅读理解                                                          The Value of Tears
     Tears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. Tears leave you
embarrassed and without energy. Still, crying is a fact of life, and your tears are very useful. Even when
you"re not crying, they make a film over the eye"s surface.   1
     When tears fall, they reduce stress. But we tend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. "People worry
about showing their emotions, afraid that once they lose control they"II never get it back. "     2    After
we cry , the feelings that caused the tears often disappear.
    Sometirnes people become much stressed and can"t cry. Whatever emotion  they  are  feeling-shock ,
anger, fear , or sadness-is being held back.
      But everyone has the need to try. Psychologist Vera Diamond explains that her treatment often
consists of giving people permission to cry.   3   Patients practice crying just to become used to expressing emotions. She suggests safe , private  places  to  cry , like  under the  bedcovers or in the car.
     Crying is a way of reducing tension, but people don"t like it when others cry because it makes them
tense.   4   And they"ll do just about anything to make you stop.
     In certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. It"s good not to cry during a tense
business discussion.   5   You should also act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angry as
you Iike. It will help you feel better. "And,"  she adds, "once your tears have taken away the stress , you
can begin to think calmly of ways to deal with the problem. "
     Tears are a sign of our ability to feel. If you find yourself near someone crying, deal with it. And never
be afraid to cry yourself.
A. They too may be holding back a need to cry.
B. They cry for different reasons.
C. She gives crying exercises.
D. It contains a chemical against infection.
E. The fact is that no emotion lasts forever.
F. It forms in response to the stress on the surface of the eye.
G. But once you"re safely behind closed doors,don"t just cry.
