译文:
"一天，一位书商让一大箱书砸到了他脚上。
“去看医生，”他的妻子说。
“不行，”他说，“我会一直等到医生下次来书店。
然后，我会问他关于我的脚。
如果我去看他，我得付他钱。
”
第二天，医生来到了这个书店准备买书。
书商已经准备好了，他告诉医生他的脚受伤了。
医生帮他看了看。
“你必须把它每天晚上用热水泡脚。
然后你必须放一些东西在它上面”医生说。
他拿出一张纸记了下来。
“买这个并且在你每晚睡觉前把它放到你的脚上。
”他说。
“谢谢你。
”书商说，“现在，先生，这是你想要的书。
”
“多少钱？
”医生说。
“两磅。
”
“好，”医生说，“我将不需要支付任何东西。
”
“为什么呢？
”店主问。
“我帮看你的脚。
需要两磅。
如果有人来我家。
像这样的小事我会让他们支付一英镑。
但是当我去他们的家。
我需要两磅。
我来你这里了，不是吗？

译文:
"害羞是许多人不快乐的原因。
害羞的人焦虑不安，自我意识强，也就是说，他们过分在意自己的形象和行为。
焦虑时常萦绕在他们的脑海中：
我给人留下了什么印象？
他们喜欢我吗？
我让人觉的很傻吗？
我的穿着是否不吸引人？
显而易见，这种不舒服的感觉必然给人们带来了不利的影响。
一个人的自我意识反映在他或她的行为上，而一个人的行为会影响他人的反应。
一般而言，人们认识自己的方式对他们的生活的方方面面有深远的影响。
羞怯的人非常自卑，他们可能很被动，容易受他人的影响。
他们需要得到他人的再次确认：
他们所做的是“正确的
事情”。
羞怯的人对批评很敏感，他们认为批评使得他们更低人一等。
他们也发现自己很难因为受到类似的表扬而高兴，如：
你刚才所说的使我感觉很好。
我知道那不是真的。
很明显，尽管具有自知之明是件好事，但过度自谦则是有害的。
羞怯能根除吗？
或至少能减少些吗？
幸运的是，许多人能通过坚决而有耐心地建立自信来克服羞怯。
既然羞怯与自卑天生相伴，那么人们能看见他们的优缺点是很重要的。
每一个人都是独一无二的，都有其价值所在。
我们对我们自己个人的方式感兴趣。
我们了解自己越多，我们就越容易充分发挥自己的潜能。
不要让羞怯妨碍我们实现富裕而有成效的人生。

"24位AcaciaGrove居民不满财产状况，所以最后一周约翰普莱斯顿召开会议来讨论一些事情。
在会议上，约翰提议建立一个居民委员会。
每个人都很担心和愤怒代理人的活动，他们同意，并且选约翰为委员会主席。
许多居民说，他们厌倦了打电话给代理和抱怨公寓。
虽然代理负责公寓，他们认为他没有做足够的负责。
因此，约翰被要求写代理管理端公寓很失望。
下一个服务费是在本月底结算。
然而，他们不愿意支付它直到他们满意计划得到改善。
他们决定告诉代理人，他必须在一个月内开始工作。
他们都走了，对自己很满意。
