Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I have visited

a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.

When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round

in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.

Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or

even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the

way somewhere, I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”

Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to

the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual replay. But just as I walked on only a few steps,

I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back

and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I did

n’t want to keep him

waiting.

When

I

just

got

to

my

office,

the

secretary

showed

in

the

man

who

had

asked

me

for

directions.

Imagine how embarrassed

I was and how surprised

he was when we saw each

other at

the

first sight!

( ) 2. A man stopped the writer on the way to ______.

C. works

(

Have you ever been sad because you failed in something? If so, please remember, for often,

2

achieving what you except is not the most important thing. Here is a story to tell you why.

One

day,

a

little

boy

decided

to

dig

a

hole

behind

his

house

after

watching

a

science

program.

A

s he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of

the

visitors.

“I

want

to

dig

a

deep

hole

all

the

day

through

the

earth!”

the

boy

answered

excitedly.

The other boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. Then they left.

The little boy kept on digging

and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his

eyes.

He

collected

them

and

put

them

into

a

glass

jar

patiently.

Humming

a

song,

he

went

on

digging.

The

jar

was

full

soon.

Then

he

tal

ked

to

himself

calmly

and

proudly,

“Maybe

I

can’t

finish

digging

all the way through the earth, but look at what I have in the process (

过程) of digging!”

The boy’s goal was too difficult, but it did cause him to go on, in other words, to cause

us to keep working!

Not every goal will be achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream

will come true. But when you can’t achieve your goal, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look what

I’ve

found

along

the

way!

There

are

so

many

wonderful

things

that

have

come

into

my

life

because

I tried to do something!”

It is the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the

journey that really has a meaning.

( ) 6. What did the boy do after watching the program?

A. He bought a glass jar. B. He started to dig a hole. C. He played with some visitors.

( ) 7. What did the other boys think of the little boy?

A. He was silly.

B. He was strict.

C. He was strong-minded.

( ) 8. When did the boy find the stones?

A. Before he met the other boys. B. When he wanted to give up digging.

C. After the older boys laughed at him.

( )

9.

What

does

the

underlined

sentence

“

It

is

the

digging

that

life

is

lived.

”

mean

according

to the article?

A. Life is to make a big success. B. Life is to find the colorful stones.

C. Life is on the way to achieve the goal.

( ) 10. Which is the best title for this article?

A. Enjoying the Process

B. How to Achieve Goals C. A Journey through the Earth
