One morning, a blind* boy sat in front of a building with a hat by his feet .He held a sign* which said,“I am blind. Please help me. There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat .He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps* and ask,“Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?”
The man said,“I only wrote the truth. I said what you said, but in a different way.”
What he had written was,“Today is a beautiful day, but I can’t see it.”
Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty* of the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.
The first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind.
There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story.
The first is: Treasure*what you have. Someone else has less. Try your best to help those who need your help.
The second is: Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way.
1.On the sign what the man wrote was,“_______.”
A. Treasure what we have already had.
B. Today is a beautiful day, but I can’t see it.
C. We are so lucky that we are not blind.
D. Try your best to help those who need your help.
2.The word“recognized”here in Chinese means______.
A.承認 B.接受
C.表揚 D.認出
3.From the passage we know that _____.
A. the boy always has a hat on his head.
B. the man is one of his friends.
C. the boy is blind and needs help.
D. the boy works for the man.
4.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A .The hat began to fill up after the man wrote some words on the sign.
B. The man took away all the few coins from the hat.

For many years I had a good life. My illness was reasonably (適度的) under control, I had a nice relationship with my husband, I did work, I didn't hate. It was, as I said, a good life.
But there's a saying that the good is the enemy of the best. I finally realized this one day, and began making my best life. I changed doctors and tried a new way that could relieve(減輕) my symptoms (癥狀) , rather than just making them easier to deal with. I started talking more with my husband and listening to what he had to say. And I quit(辭掉) my job and started working for myself.
I have the best life I've ever had. I'd call it great. It is possible there's a better life for me, which would then be my "best life" , but for now I don't think so. I've started a business I love. My husband and kids are wonderful. I have a good friend and I'm close to my older sister who lives in town. Could it get better? I suppose so. But for me I think this is the best life I can have right now.
Think more about your life. Where are you living? Are you in a job you just don't mind? What makes your life "good" ? Why isn't it great? What's the enemy of the best and what can you do about it?
Enjoy your best life. We're only here for a short while, and we all need to have the best possible time we can. It's like going to Disney World. If you spend too much time standing in line waiting for the ride, pretty soon your time's up. Get out of the "good" line and have your best life.
1.Which of the following is NOT included in the writer's "good life" ?
A. Having a job. B. Having no hate.
C. Getting on well with her husband. D. Living close to her good friend.
2.The writer quit her job because she________.
A. was ill B. didn't like working
C. wanted to go for her best life D. wanted to enjoy her good life
3.What did the writer do to make her best life?
①She visited other doctors.
②She started a business she loved.
③She played more with her kids.
④She talked more with her husband.
⑤She spent much time in Disney World.
A. ①②④ B.②③④ C.①③⑤ D.①②⑤
4. What's the enemy of the best?
A. Illness. B. A good job. C. Being proud. D. Being satisfied.
5.What is the best title for the article?
A. Attitude to Life B. Making Your Best Life
C. What Makes Your Life "Good" D. A New Way to Treat the Illness
