He was struggling(费劲) to tie his shoes. I was struggling with whether I should help him.
I did, and he was grateful.
“Thank you,” he said.
“I’m glad I could help. I just thought it would be easier for me to reach,” I said.
He was a disabled man, and forced to look down most of the time. His arms and legs were twisted(扭曲的) terribly, and he couldn’t do what the rest of us would consider easy tasks. He always managed to look up to see how you reacted(反应) to his words, however. He had a big smile, making me feel comfortable.
I was still on my knees by his wheelchair.
“ Nice shoes,” he said.
“Thanks. No one ever complimented me on them before,” I said.
“No one has the same view of the world as I do,” he replied.
“Tell me about the world as you see it,” I said smiling.
“Most people can see if someone is comfortable with them or not in their eyes. I see it in their feet.” he said. “If people keep moving their feet, I just let them go, because I know they’re impatient with me. I don’t want to make people uncomfortable.
“What about me? I asked.
“I could see your compassion. And then you came down to my level. I was the one who was nervous.” he said. “I don’t normally have someone look me in the eye.”
“They don’t know what they’re missing,” I told him.
“My old face is nothing to brag(自夸) about.” he said.
“But that smile is so big.”
Yes, and it’s not only a big smile but an attitude.

As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded
in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was
never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing
car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on
the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw
the curtains(窗帘) seem to move when there was no wind. A
very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times        
 
louder than in the day. My imagination (想象) would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy(敌人) " would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight.
Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.
One of the processes(过程) growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.
【小题1】 The author had _________kind(s) of fears when she was a child.
A.one B.two C.three D.none
【小题2】 _________ would scare the author at night.
A.Streetlight and car lightsB.Wild animals and enemies
C.Moving curtains and wind D.Strange sights and sounds
【小题3】When she went to some other places, she would _________.
A.walk away without others B.take a bus by herself
C.follow others closely D.make sure not to take a wrong bus
【小题4】Which of the following would be possibly true when she was a child?
A.She was usually popular among people.
B.She was always the leader of the others.
C.She always' got poor grades.
D.She was not at all liked by others.
【小题5】The underlined word "overcome" means "_________" in Chinese.
A.接受B.忍受C.信服D.克服

Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or 1.________ and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely(孤独的)and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. 2.________. When you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health. When you get success, your friends will say congratulations(祝贺)to you. When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. 3.________. All these are your happiness. If you notice(注意到) a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge(挑战)yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的)door. When it closes, it also opens. 4.________.
A.When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you
B.If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person
