【題目】閱讀表達,閱讀下面的短文,請根據(jù)短文后的要求答題。

A young boy was walking with his father along a country road. When they came across a very large tree branch, the boy asked:“Do you think I could move that branch?”

His father answered:“If you use all your strength, I’m sure you can.”

So the boy tried as hard as possible to lift, pull and push the branch but he couldn’t move it.

Discouraged he said:“Dad, you were wrong. I can’t do it.”

His father said:“Try again.”

This time, as the boy struggled with the branch, his father joined him and together they pushed the branch aside.

“Son,” the father said, “the first time you didn’t use all your strength. You didn’t ask me to help.”

This is an important lesson. There are many things we can’t do alone, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get them done. We all are surrounded by resources that can be used to help us achieve our goals including family, friends and beliefs. Sometimes we fail to ask for help, because of pride. Sometimes we think it’s a sign of weakness to admit we need a hand. And sometimes we don’t even think about asking for help. Whatever the reason, it’s a waste.

It’s important that we learn to use all our strength; this includes inner resources such as self-control, courage and even love. But it also includes outer resources. Just as we should be willing to help others, we should be willing to ask for the help of others.

It’s one of the great things about being human.

At some point in your life, you will need to ask someone for a favor(幫助), whether it’s at your workplace, at home or in a social setting. If you need a guy to help you with something, there are ways to approach him that will help you ask for that favor.

Find the right guy to ask for a favor.1For example, if you need someone to look after your house while you are away for a month, don’t select a guy who has a wife and kids and can’t possibly leave them to do you the favor.

2Even if it’s a small favor, try to find a place that has some privacy(私密性). This is especially important if you’re asking for a favor that you don’t want someone else to hear, such as borrowing money from him.

Use special words to set the table so that he knows you’re in need.3Or words such as “I really need your help” are OK. These words give him the chance to understand that he can be of help.

Ask for help in a clear way that expresses what you need, the reason why you need it, and more importantly, the parameters(限定因素) of the favor. For example, if you’re asking him to take you to the airport, tell him when you need him to arrive. If you’re borrowing money from him, say the amount and the reason why you need the money.4

Ask for help in such a way that you give him the chance to refuse.5If you don’t give him that choice, he may feel as if it’s something he has to do instead of something he wants to do.

A. Find the right place to ask him.

B. Be a kind person who always helps others.

C. The guy must have the ability to help you.

D. Besides, you should tell him when you will give it back.

E. You can say, “I’m really in trouble. Can you help me?”

F. It can be difficult to find the right words to tell what you need.

G. Make it clear that you completely understand if he can’t help you.

It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express an idea, you are thinking actively about it. 5 In the end, you will expand your ideas.

A. If I’m away from my computer, I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go.

B. It trains you to express your thoughts.

C. Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with.

D. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today.
