Question

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings（缺点）. Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark (作记号)the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”

I did as he told me and to my surprise, I found that about half the things were true.  I brought the list back to my dad. He refused(拒绝) to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be helpful to you. Don’t close your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.”

Many years has passed. I often think of that thing.  In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure（珍惜）all your life!

【解析】

我12岁的时候，我有一个敌人，那是一个喜欢指出我缺点的女孩。有时，她说我很瘦。有时，她说我很懒。有时，她说我不是个好学生。有时，她说我讲得太多了，等等。我尽力忍受着，后来，我变得很生气。最终在父亲的指导下，我正确的处理了这个问题。
