When you meet someone for the first time, you form an 61 ( impress) in your mind of that person. Your reactions to others, however, are really just barometers(晴雨表) for how you view yourself. Your reactions to others say 62 ( much) about you than they do about others. You cannot really love or hate yourself.

Therefore, you can allow others 64 ( be) the mirror to illuminate(照亮) more clearly your own feelings of self-worth. On the contrary, you can view the people you judge negatively 65 mirrors to show you 66 you are not accepting about yourself. To coexist 67 (peaceful) with others, you will need to learn tolerance. Your task is to assess all the decisions, judgments you make onto others 68 to view them as clues to how you can improve yourself and become whole.

E-reading and e-books are slowly conquering the world. Compared to traditional paper books, e-books in some schools and universities attract more interest because the information flow seems much easier to manage and comes in a greatly higher quantity.

My friend had mentioned the other day that her father had a lot of children's toys he was looking to give away. She knew I have a three-year-old daughter so she thought of me first. I told her I would love it if I could get some nice things for my daughter, which I wouldn't otherwise have been able to afford.
When I met her father, he began to explain he was poor once too and that he would hate to throw away things that can be very useful.
Before he showed me what he was giving away, I thought the toys would be mostly lego's(乐高积木) or things like that. When he was showing me around I saw a bed, a slide(滑梯) , a kitchen set and man}7 0ther things that just blew my mind. He told me to write a list of everything my daughter could use and as my eyes were wide, he told me not to feel guilty. He said I was helping him by getting rid of the stuff.
As I was looking around I did feel guilty, but I tried to remain more grateful than guilty because he told me too. Every time I tried to thank him for giving me and my daughter all this wonderful stuff he would thank me right back. I wanted to believe that he was just thanking me so that I wouldn't feel so guilty but in reality I believe that he was as grateful as I was that these toys would be put to good use.
In the eyes of charity, it makes sense to feel grateful, but guilt is just as normal. I know that we could have lived without a slide, which is why I do feel guilty, but I am grateful all the same because my daughter really does enjoy all these nice things! 32. Why did the old man want to give away his toys? A. He wanted to help those poor children. B. He was wealthy enough to buy new toys.
