    [1]When I was in primary school, I got into an argument with a boy in my class. I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson learned that day.

[2]I was convinced that "I " was right and "he" was wrong--and he was just as convinced that __________ and "he" was right. The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson. She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other.

[3]In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the object was. "White,"he answered.

[4]I couldn't believe he said the object was white, when it was obviously black! Another argument started between my classmate and me, this time about the color of the object.

[5]The teacher told me to go to stand where the boy was standing and told him to come to stand where I had been. We changed places, and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I had to answer,"White." it was an object with two differently colored sides, and from his viewpoint it was white. Only from my side was it black.

[6]My teacher taught me a very important lesson learned that day: You must stand in the other person's shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their perspective(看法)

Have you heard of the saying, “If anything is worth doing, it is worth doing well”? The proverb is a piece of advice to make effects towards perfection in whichever job one does. It could be a small task like folding up your clothes, or a major one like organizing a business meeting in your later life.

Perfection just needs paying attention to details. If it is your job to dust the furniture at home, dust it so that not a single spot of dirt shows from any direction. If your task is to make the beds, make them so that not a single crease（皺紋）shows on the bed-covers.

There are only two ways to do a job: either sloppily, or well. If you choose the latter, you need to realize that any job that qualifies as (取得…的資格)“your” work deserves your best. Perfection is an attitude that can be developed with just a little effect. It is a habit that is helpful to a person in later life. Let us prove with an example: you may be asked to turn in an essay on, for example, wildlife, for a school project. Instead of writing carelessly a few facts that you already know, you could make the project more effective by looking up a reference books, encyclopedias（百科全書）or websites for additional information. You could then go over the finished essay for slips（疏漏）and errors, and provide pictures where necessary. If you make it a habit to put in extra effort in your school homework, will it not help you to handle more difficult projects at the college or university level?

As Michelangelo, the famous 16th century sculptor and painter, once put it: Trifles（瑣事）go to make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.

According to the passage, to achieve perfection is _______.

   A. to realize the quality of the work

   B. to pay attention to details of one’s work

   C. to do as many jobs as possible

   D. to form the habit of doing things ahead of time

The underlined word “sloppily” in paragraph 3 may mean _______

   A. badly     B. patiently        C. carefully        D. slowly

What can be inferred from the third paragraph?

   A. It is necessary to provide pictures for your essay.

   B. Websites are the sources of information you want.

   C. Perfection is a habit that promises a good future.

   D. You should make much effort to develop perfection.

The purpose of writing this passage is to _______.

   A. introduce the famous painter Michelangelo

   B. advise us to do the things that are worth doing

   C. explain to us the meaning of the perfection

   D. expect us to give our best to our work
