It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like

18、 “I was wrong about that ,”and it is even harder to say, “I was wrong ,and you were right about that.” I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago .He told me he had been the manager of a cartons (纸箱).Then he talk of an incident and I began

19、to remember the incident he was describing. I was about eight years old at the time , and I had gone into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping. On that particular day, I must have found my way to the food department where the incident took place.There must have been a special s

20、ale on eggs that day because there was a big show of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons. The cartons were put three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of them to admire the show. Just then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the pile of cartons. For some reason, I

21、 decided it was up to me to put the cartons back together, so I went to work.The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared, I was on my knees checking some of the cartons to if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as if I was the person who

22、 was to blame .He scolded me loudly and wanted me to pay for those broken eggs. My face turned red and I tried to explain, but it did no good. Even though I quickly forgot the incident, but the manager did not.21How old was the author when he wrote this article?A About 8years old B About 18 years ol

24、or was loudly scolded by the manager.C A woman was loudly scolded by the manager.D It was the author who put the cartons back together.24The tone of the article expresses the authors_A admiration for the managers willingness to admit mistakesB anger to the manager for his wrongC dissatisfaction with

25、 the woman who knocked off the pile cartonsD regret for the mistake he made in the storeOver the holidays, I took my three young children into a fancy chocolate shop to buy gifts. Halfway home, I noticed my 7-year-old son playing with a plastic noisemaker. Long story short: He had stolen the toy. I

26、kept my cool - even when he said, but it was only $1.50, Mom! -and explained why it was unacceptable to take things we didnt buy.A few hours later, I marched my son back to the store with two dollars from his piggy bank. He walked embarrassedly to the counter and told the clerk that he had taken som

27、ething without paying for it, that he was sorry to break it and that he would pay for it now.I know exactly how terrible he was feeling. Returning to the scene of the crime is the same shame-causing punishment I received when I was five and stole something from a store. 1 remember my dad sending me

28、back to return the item. It remains one of my clearest child hood memories. After that day, I never stole again. My dad taught me such an important lesson 30 years ago and I saw an opportunity to do the same for my son. But now I wonder if it was the fight thing to do.Returning to the store is absol

30、th the behavior and a willful child will be more likely to fight against you, she says. Having a child physically return the stolen item helps him or her grasp the situation - and the consequence.But dont talk about it for too long. lf you continuously bring up the incident, the child will believe t

31、hey re a thief and that they re bad, she says.Only time will tell if this experience will have the same powerful effect on my son as it had on me, but at the same time I can rest if I haven t dealt with the situation badly.25When the author s son was caught playing with a stolen toy, he_.A. responded calmlyB. felt very ashamedC. didnt think it was a big dealD. didnt admit stealing the toy26The
