“What is the most important thing you’ve done in your life?”The question was put to me during a presentation I gave to a group of lawyers.
The answer came to me in an instant. It’s not the one I gave, because the situation was not right. As a lawyer in the entertainment industry, I knew the audience wanted to hear some amusing stories about my work with well-known people. but here’s the true answer:
The most important thing I’ve ever done occurred on October 8,1990. I began the day playing tennis with an old friend I hadn’t seen for a while. Between points we talked about what had been happening in each other’s lives. He and his wife had just had a baby boy, who was keeping them up at night.
While we were playing, a car came screaming up the road toward the courts. It was my friend’s father, who shouted to my friend that his baby had stopped breathing and was being rushed to the hospital. In a flash my friend was in the car and gone, disappearing in a cloud of dust.
For a moment I just stood there, paralyzed(呆若木雞). Then I tried to figure out what I should do. Follow my friend to the hospital? There was nothing I could accomplish there, I convinced myself. My friend’s son was in the care of doctors and nurses, and nothing I could do or say would affect the outcome. Be there for moral support? Well, maybe. But my friend and his wife both had large families, and I knew they’d be surrounded by relatives who would provide more than enough comfort and support, whatever happened. All I could do at the hospital, I decided, was to get in the way. Also, I had planned a full day with my family, who were waiting for me to get home. So I decided to head back to my house and check in my friend later.
As I started my car, I realized that my friend had left his truck and keys at the courts. I now faced another problem. I couldn’t leave the keys in the truck. So I decided to go to the hospital and give him the keys.
When I arrived, I was directed to a room where my friend and his wife were waiting. As I had thought, the room was filled with family members silently watching my friend comfort his wife. I went in and stood by the door, trying to decide what to do next. Soon a doctor appeared. He approached my friend and his wife, and in a quiet voice told them that their son had died.
For a long time the two held each other and cried, unaware of the rest of us standing around in pained silence. After they had calmed themselves, the doctor suggested they spend a few moments with their son.
My friend and his wife stood up and walked past their families. When they reached the door, my friend saw me standing in the corner. He came over and hugged me and started to cry. My friend’s wife hugged me, too, and said , “Thanks for being here.”
For the rest of that morning, I sat in the emergency room of that hospital and watched my friend and his wife hold the body of their infant son, and say goodbye.
It’s the most important thing I have ever done.
The experience taught me two lessons.
First: The most important thing I’ve ever done happened when I was completely helpless. None of the things I had learned in university, in three years of law school or in six years of legal practice were of any use in that situation. Something terrible was happening to people I cared about, and I was powerless to change the outcome. All I could do was standing by and watching it happen. And yet it was critical that I do just that--- just be there when someone needed me.
Second: The most important thing I’ve done almost didn’t happen because of things I had learned in classroom and professional life. Law school taught me how to take a set of facts, break them down and organized them. These skills are critical for lawyers. When people come to us for help, they’re often stressed out and depend on a lawyer to think logically. But while learning to think, I almost forget how to feel. Today I have no doubt that I should have leapt into my car without hesitation and followed my friend to the hospital.
From that one experience I learned that the most important thing in life isn’t the money you make, the status you attain or the honors you achieve. The most important thing in life is the kids’ team you coach or the poem you write----or the time when you’re just somebody’s friend.
【小題1】When he was asked about the most important thing he had done in life at a presentation, the author __________.
A felt it was not an interesting question           
B. thought for a while and spoke his mind
C. gave an answer from a lawyer’s point of view   
D. didn’t give the real answer
【小題2】When he saw his friend rush to the hospital, the author could not decide whether to follow mainly because he thought _________.

A．He had to stay with his familyB．His friend did not need his help.
C．He would not be of much helpD．the baby would be in the doctor’s care
【小題3】What can we infer from the author’s description of the scene at the hospital?
A．He found out that he was in the way.
B．He would have felt guilty if he had not been there.
C．He regretted that he went too later.
D．His friend would have felt better if he had not been there.

A．Family and relatives can not take the place of friends.
B．More people are a great comfort when one is in trouble.
C．It is best to be here when someone needs you.
D．You can certainly help a friend if you want to.
【小題5】The author learned from his own experience that_______.
A．what is taught in school is usually of no use.
B．a(chǎn) lawyer cannot learn much in classrooms
C．a(chǎn) lawyer should know people’s feeling first
D．he needs to be able to feel as well as think logically
【小題6】The underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggests that the author_______.
A．is fond of writing poems
B．is going to coach the kid’s team
C．is determined to make friends with everybody
D．is fully aware of the importance of being helpful to those in need

The world needs more people who are truly kind and caring. Yesterday it was about 11:00 p.m. _36_ my telephone rang. The number was that of a Best Western Hotel.  _37_ I don’t pay attention to this type of call. _38_, this time, for some reason, I went ahead and answered it.

The _42_, Mr. Mason, was the manager of the hotel at which my grandpa had shown up, wanting to rent a room. The _43_ was that my grandpa had no money with him. He was _44_.

It’s not easy being a teenager（13至19歲青少年）—nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.

Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead , let him attempt to solve（解決）things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy （隱私）. Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions.

Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation（節(jié)制）. Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part –time job

1.The main purpose of the text is to tell parents _____________.

A. how to get along with a teenager

B. how to respect a teenager

C. how to understand a teenager

D. how to help a teenager grow up

2.What does the phrase “clam up” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. become excited                       B. show respect

C. refuse to talk                       D. seek help

3.What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?

A. Nor allow him to learn driving or take drugs

B. Give him advice only when necessary

C. Let him have his own telephone

D. Not talk about personal things with him
