Question

    When I was about 12, a girl in my class liked to point out (指出) my problems. I was too thin; I wasn’t a good student; I talked too much; I was too proud (骄傲) and so on. At last, I became very unhappy and ran to my father.

He listened to me quietly. Then he asked, “Are these things true or not? Do you know what you are really like? Go and make a list of what she said and find the things that are true.”

I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half of the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but there were things I could and wanted to change. For the first time, I got a clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Dad. He didn’t take it, “That’s just for you,” he said “You know the truth (真相) about yourself better than anyone else. When people say something that doesn’t sound nice, don’t be unhappy and feel hurt. Listen to them and you’ll find it helpful.”

文章大意：本文中介绍了在我十二岁那年，班里有一个女孩总是指出我的缺点，我很难过，跑去向父亲诉苦，父亲让我记下了这些问题，以便对自己有一个清晰的认识。并告诉我：“当人们说一些听起来不太好的事情时，不要不开心，也不要感到受伤。听听他们的建议，你会发现这很有帮助。”
