A teacher decided to have her class play a game. The teacher told each student to bring a plastic bag with a few potatoes in it to school. Each student would “name” their potatoes after people they did not like. Therefore, the number of potatoes would be different depending on how many people each student disliked.

The next day, all the students brought their potatoes to school. Some kids had just one or two potatoes, while the others had as many as five or six. The teacher then told the children that they would have to carry their potatoes with them everywhere they went for one week.

Several days passed by. Some of the students started to complain, as their potatoes began to rot (腐爛) and smell bad. The students who carried more potatoes also complained about how heavy their bags were.

One week later, the game was over. The teacher asked, “How did you feel about carrying around your potatoes for a week?” The students complained once again. The teacher simply smiled and said, “This is what it’s like to carry hatred (仇恨) in your heart. You have to carry it with you wherever you go. If you can’t stand carrying rotten potatoes for one week, can you imagine having hatred in your heart for a whole lifetime?”

It can be quite tiring to carry hatred in your heart for a whole lifetime. Please forgive(原諒) others and move on with your life. That’s our best choice.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容判斷正誤 （正確寫A, 錯誤寫B(tài)）

1.The number of potatoes that students were asked to carry to school depended on the number of people they disliked.

It happens to all of us. It is the end of the term and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what can you do now?

Grades are how most schools evaluate（評價）students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.

The first thing to do is to talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades are calculated（計算）. Is the problem a bad test, lack of participation（參與）in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your own (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behavior! Thirdly, if you have been studying hard and still get a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Lastly, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you talk to your parents. That’s a good way to make your parents less angry.

While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that every report card is not perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learned from their failures, and you should, too!

1.The problem with the grades is that ________.

A.most schools evaluate students by using grades B.it’s important to get good grades

C.we don’t always get good grades we want D.grades are sometimes incorrect

2.The passage is written in a/an ________ tone(語氣).

A.crazy B.serious C.sad D.angry

3.The text above is written to ________.

A.encourage students to get good grades B.make parents less angry

C.share ways to deal with bad report cards D.find excuses for bad grades

4.The passage is probably from________.

A.a software instruction B.a story book C.a teenager magazine D.a travel diary
