Pollys son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as th
29、e educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents knew his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly
30、 after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper. “Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known that the last time I had talked to him wou
31、ld be the last time. If I had only known that, I would have said to him, Jim, I love you and Im always so proud of you. I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had brought to the lives of the people who loved him. I would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his
32、laughter, and his genuine love to other people. “When I put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irritating (恼人的) things such as the radio that was always too loud, the haircut that wasnt to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., I find that the irritations
33、 really dont amount to much. “I wont get another chance to tell my son all that I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear as if it may be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the morning of the
34、day when he died. He called me to say, Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. You have to go to work now. Bye. That day, he gave me something to treasure forever. If there is any purpose at all for Jims death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family m
35、embers, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care. You may never have another chance. Do it today!61. Who was Jim?A. The child of the Tyners.B. The writers relative.C. The president of a school board.D. An official of a school.62. Whats the meaning of the underlin
36、ed phrase “the educationally handicapped?A. The learning difficulty.B. The physical problems.C. The psychological problems.D. The communication difficulty. 63. According to the writer, which of the following about Jim is TRUE？A. He was always sad about his school marks.B. His parents always scolded
37、him about his bad school marks.C. His study needed more attention from his parents and teachers.D. He was killed in a car accident. 64. The purpose of Pollys letter is to .A. memorize her sonB. teach parents to appreciate their childrenC. teach children how to be good boysD. give some advice on how
38、to deal with childrens problemsBSome people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are severa
39、l skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, theyll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I
40、 always ask people what they did that morning. Its a common question, but it will get things going. From there you can move on to other matterssometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen t
41、o the answers. This point seems clear, but it isnt. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of
42、conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that hes really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, its time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal w
43、ith the occasion of parting. If youre saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “Ive really enjoyed meeting you. If you want to see that person again, dont keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if theyve known you half their life.65. Ask
