  One Saturday afternoon, my daughter Alice asked me,“Are all people the same even if the yare different in color?”

  I thought for a minute, and then I said,“I'll explain, if you can just wait until we make a quick   1   in the supermarket.I have something   2   to show you.”

  In the supermarket, we bought some apples-red, green and yellow ones.Back home, I told Alice,“It's time to   3   your question.”I put one apple of each type on the table.Then I looked at Alice, who had a   4   look on her face.

  “People are like apples.They come in all different colors, shapes and sizes.On the outside, some of the apples may not   5   look as the others.”As I was talking, Alice was   6   each one carefully.

  Then, I took each of the apples and peeled(削皮)them, placing them back on the table, but on a different place.

  “Okay, Alice, tell me which is which.”

  She said,“I   7   tell.They all look the same now.”Take   8   of each one.See if that helps you decide which one is which.”

  She took big bites, and then a huge smile came across her face,“People are just like apple! They are all different, but once you   9   the outside, they're pretty much the same on the inside.”

  She totally   10   it, I didn't need to say or do anything else.

There once was a master who went to India. In those times, we didn't have airplanes or many kinds of transportation that we do now. So the master went to India 1  . And when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit. In India they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is 2 because they can't grow much  the water situation. So he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop, not expensive at all.
So he 4 and asked, "How much per kilo?" And the shopkeeper said, "Two rupees."(印度货币) Two rupees in India is 5 ; it's like dirt (尘土). So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But after he ate some of it: Oh, my God! His 6  watered, his mouth watered and burned, his eyes were burning, his head was burning and his face became 7 . As he coughed terribly , he 8  up and down, saying, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"
But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, "You're crazy, man. Those are chilies(辣椒)! You can't eat so many; they're not good for you! People use them 9  a condiment(作料), but only a little bit to put into food for taste. You can't just eat them by the handful like that; they're not 10 !" So the silly master said, "No, I can't stop! I paid money for them, 11  now I'll eat them. It's my 12 !"
And you think that master was silly, right? Similarly, we sometimes do a lot of things like that. we still continue just because we've 13  money, time, effort and love into it. Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn't stop because he didn't want to waste the money he'd paid.
So 14  you've lost something, let it go and move on. That's better than continuing to 15  .

People who speak or perform before the public sometimes may suffer from "Stage Fright". Stage fright makes a person   1 . In that case it can make one's mind go back and forget  2 one ought to say or to act. Actors, musicians, dancers, lawyers, even radio show hosts suffered from stage fright at one time or   3 .

Diana Nichols is an expert in helping people free from stage fright at a medical center in New York City. She helps actors learn to   4  themselves. Miss Nichols says some people have always been afraid to perform before the audience. Others, she says, develop stage fright after a sad   5 .

She offers them ways to control the fear. One way is to smile before going onto the stage. Taking two deep breaths   6  helps. Deep breathing helps you get control of your body.

Miss Nichols advises her patients to tell themselves that their speech or performance does not have to be perfect. It's   7  to make a mistake. She tells them they should not be too nervous while they are performing. It is important that they should continue to perform while she is helping them. After each performance, they discuss what happened and   8  what helped and what did not. 9  they perform more and more, they will fear less and less as much as 50%. Miss Nichols says the aim is only to  10  stage fright, not to smooth it away completely. This is because a little stage fright makes a person more careful, and improves the performance.

Japanese people often ask people what blood group they are. This is b  1    they believe that a person’s blood group says a lot about their character and personality. The Japanese also believe that k  2    blood group can help them decide that if a person will be a person’s good friend. It is strange that this idea is so popular in Japan because it is not a traditional idea, but a m  3    one. Blood groups were only d  4    in 1901 and in 1916 a Japanese doctor suggested that blood groups were related to temperament (气质、性情).

In 1927, a writer did a large study of people and wrote a guide to blood groups. He said that people from blood group O are calm, patient and in c  5    of their emotions (情绪). They are f  6    of self-confidence but are also quiet. People from blood group A are gentle and careful, worry a lot, find it hard to make a d  7   , and do not like arguments. People from blood group B are cheerful and “independent”(独立). They can talk and do things w  8    needing help from others. Blood group AB is quite a strange group. These people may seem like people from blood group B but they are actually more like people from blood group A. They are shy and confident, trustworthy (可信赖的) and like to help others. The Japanese also think that your blood group a  9    your choice of job and even your choice of m  10    partner!

Some people are very outgoing and friendly. They like to be w  2     other people all the time. Maybe they like to be the centre of attention(注意). And some people are quiet--- maybe even s  3  . They can be friendly, too. But they like to be alone or with just a few friends.

Some people worry a lot. They may worry about many things, such as their jobs, their families and anything that may happen in the future. H   4   , some people don’t worry about anything! They n    5     mind what is going on next. These people are very relaxed.

Some people are hard-working. They always do their b  6 . But some people are l   7   . They don’t care about doing things right or getting things done on time. Hard-working people always get more chances than those lazy o  8    in life.
