Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the family' s expensive gold wrapping (包裝 ) paper. Money was always not enough, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted ( 貼) the gold paper to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.
The next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"
As he opened the box, the father was sorry for his earlier behavior.
But after he opened it, he found it was empty and again he was angry."Don' t you know, young lady, " he said, "when you give someone a present there's  supposed to be something inside the package!"
The little girl looked up at him with tears running from her eyes and said, "Daddy, it's not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."
When the father heard this,  he fell on his knees and put his arm around his dear little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.
An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the year of his life. Whenever he was sad or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God. This is the most expensive possession (財產(chǎn)) anyone could hold.

Though there are so many passages about positive thinking, few people really understand what it is. Being positive doesn’t mean ignoring (忽視) what is happening around us. If someone is going through problems or living in a difficult situation, we cannot expect him to ignore his problems and start thinking positively right away.
It is easier to think positively when we are in a comfortable situation, rather than a bad situation. We cannot think positively when we have problems, unless we are trained to. No one can speak a foreign language before studying and practicing for some time. The same thing is true about being positive. However, saying that everything is going to be all right, smiling for no reason, or ignoring problems without trying to solve them, is not being positive. It is daydreaming.
Positive people expect the best and believe that a bad situation will be improved, but they are also practical (明智的) people. They look for opportunities and solutions instead of doing nothing. They can improve a bad situation with a positive attitude. They can not only keep thinking of the problem that they face, but they can also refuse to let the problem affect their mind too much.
Positive thinking is being hopeful, and hope brings light and happiness into our life. One can just live with a bad attitude, or one can try to do one’s best in a bad situation. It is a matter of choice.
小題1: When we are in bad situation, it is ____ for us to think positively at once.
A．harderB．easier
C．quickerD．slower
小題2: Which one of the following is being positive?
A．Ignoring everything that we are facing.
B．Doing nothing but thinking.
C．Daydreaming all day.
D．Trying to solve problems.
小題3:Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A．Being positive can be trained, like learning a language.
B．Positive people can look for solutions in bad situations.
C．Problems can have a bad influence on positive people.
D．Positive thinking is helpful for everyone.

It was the first day of second grade, and Sarah had been looking forward to this moment. The night before,she laid out her favorite clothes: a white coat and a bright yellow shirt.
When having breakfast, Sarah dropped some food on her shirt, so she had to change into her second-best clothes, blue jeans and a Jonas Brothers T-shirt.
After breakfast Sarah rushed to catch the school bus and when she was just reaching the door the bus driver opened it. The door hit right in Sarah’s face and blood dripped from her nose. The driver wanted to send her home, but she refused, "It is the most important day of the year! I can’t miss it!"
Before classes, Sarah went to her favorite swing(秋千). When rising high, she saw her best friend little Jack. She let go of the swing and waved to him with one hand. Unfortunately, she flew out of the swing and landed hard on the sand, breaking a leg and an arm. As she lay in the sand, she noticed a shiny thing on the ground beside her. With her good hand she took it.
When Sarah’ mother rushed into the ward she was surprised by what she saw: her girl was lying in bed with an arm and a leg in the splint (夾板), a broken nose, and blood stains on her second-best clothes. Expecting to see her child crying, she was confused when she saw a big, bright smile on Sarah’s face. 
"Sarah, look at you!" her mother cried. "You were hurt so badly and why are you smiling?"                "Look, Mommy, I found a diamond!" Sarah laughed.

It was the first day of school. I had a new classmate, a little old lady with a warm smile.
She said, “Hi, young man! I'm Rose. I’m 87 years old. Can I give you a hug? ”
I said      , “Of course!”
“Why are you in college at such an age?” I asked.
She joked, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children, and then travel around the world.”
“No, seriously,” I asked.
“I always dreamed of having a college education. Now I’m getting one!” she told me.
