Saturday , March 3rd We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand.All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai(清迈) in the north. |
Tuesday, March 6th
Bangkok is wonderful and surprising! The places are interesting.
We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruit and vegetables. Everything is so colourful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai(清莱).
Friday, March 9th
Our trip to Chiang Rai was long boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

When I was in college, I remember hearing about a book titled “Looking Out for Number One”. I never read the book, but the title has always stuck with me. I think it was because the title turned me off. I hadn’t been taught to be so selfish that I should be focused on only me . I thought I needed to be helping others and, along the way, I would also be helping myself. Now, I realize I should have at least considered learning more about looking out for number one.
Over 30 years after seeing the book about looking out for number one I’m realizing number one, me, is the person I should be concerned about first. Jeffrey Gitomer asks the question, “Who is the most important person in the world?” Most people answer, the customer. He then asks, if there were only two people left in the world, the customer and you, who would you want to survive ? Now the answer is me.
It makes me sense that if we can’t help ourselves first, we will never be prepared to help others. We all need to learn to control our lives and make the best decisions for ourselves. That will put us in a position to help others in the future . But many of us are slow to understand this.
It has been said that happiness will bring success, but success doesn’t always bring happiness. We all want to be happy and successful. For some of us can be very happy when our basic needs are met and our family are safe. Others will seek high levels of success thinking that will bring happiness. I’m sure we can think of a person who is very successful, according to the world’s standards (标准), but they don’t appear to be happy at all. This is because they have been so busy working for somebody else’s goals that they haven’t considered their own needs.
1.Who does the writer think is the most important person in the world now?
A. Others B. Himself
C. The customer D. Jeffrey Gitomer
2.The underlined words“ turned me off” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “________”.
A. made me excited B. made me bored
C. made me surprised D. made me pleased
3.From the third paragraph we can learn ________.
A. we should help others instead of ourselves
B. we need help others make the best decisions
C. helping others can help control our lives
D. actually few of us understand this idea earlier
4. Why do some successful people not feel happy at all?
A. Because they don’t believe success always brings happiness.
B. Because their basic needs are not completely met.
C .Because they seek for too high levels of success.
D. Because they haven’t been working for their own goals.
5. The best title for the passage is “______________”.
A. Considering Our Own Needs First
B. The Most Important in the World
C. Helping Others First
D. Happiness and Success
