11、 son, he immediately noticed the babys ears obviously standing out from his head. He expressed his concern to the nurse that some children might be made fun of his child. A doctor examined the baby and reassured the new dad that his son was healthy- the ears presented only a small problem with its a

12、ppearance. But the nervous father continued. He wondered if the child might suffer psychological effects of ridicule, or if they should consider plastic surgery(整形手术 ). The nurse assured him that it was really no problem, and he should just wait to see if the boy grows into his ears. The father fina

13、lly felt more optimistic about his child, but now he worried about his wifes reaction to those large ears. She had been delivered by operation, and had not yet seen the child. “She doesnt take things as easily as I do,” he said to the nurse. By this time, the new mother was settled in the recovery r

14、oom and ready to meet her new baby. The nurse went along with the dad to lend some support in case this inexperienced mother became upset about her babys large ears. The baby was in a blanket(毛毯 ) with his head covered for the short trip through the cold air-conditioned corridor. The baby was placed

15、 in his mothers arms, who eased the blanket back so that she could look at her child for the first time. She took one look at her babys face and looked to her husband and gasped, “Oh, Honey! Look! He has your ears!” No problem with Mom. She married those ears.and she loves the man to whom they are a

16、ttached.

20、f doctor-patient relationship. 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 C 【小题 3】 D 【小题 4】 A 【小题 5】 B How many times have you gotten upset because someone wasnt doing their job, because your child isnt behaving？ How many times have you been annoyed when youve planned something carefully and things didnt go as youd hoped

21、This kind of anger and irritation happens to all of us its part of the human experience. One thing that annoys me is when people talk during a movie. Or cut me off in traffic. Actually, I have a lot of these little annoyances dont we all And it isnt always easy to find peace when youve become upset

22、or annoyed. Let me tell you a little secret to finding peace of mind: see the glass as already broken. See, the cause of our stress, anger and irritation is that things dont go the way we like, the way we expect them to. Think of how many times this has been true for you. And so the solution is simp

23、le: expect things to go wrong, expect things to be different than we hoped or planned, expect the unexpected to happen. And accept it. One quick example: on our recent trip to Japan, I told my kids to expect things to go wrong they always do on a trip. I told them, “See it as part of the adventure.”

24、 And this worked like a charm. When we took the wrong train on a foreign-language subway system, or when it rained on the day we went to Disney Sea, or when we took three trains and walked 10 blocks only to find the National Childrens Castle closed on Mondays they said, “Its part of the adventure!”

25、And it was all OK we didnt get too bothered. So when the nice glass you bought inevitably falls and breaks, someday, you might get upset. But not if you see the glass as already broken, from the day you get it. You know itll break someday, so from the beginning, see it as already broken. Be a time-t

26、raveler, or someone with time-traveling vision, and see the future of this glass, from this moment until it inevitably breaks. And when it breaks, you wont be upset or sad because it was already broken, from the day you got it. And youll realize that every moment you have with it is precious. 【小题 1】
