32、glass farm that I knocked it over. All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants remained alive after their earthquake, one by one they began to die. I was scared as I watched them give up building their tunnels to carry the bodies to a corner of the farm.My mother said that the ants were dying of sa

48、ut you might mingle with (和.混合) other young people, his mother reproved (责备) him, but felt a kindness in her heart.The boys father had a session with the family physicianCould nothing be done? I believe I could graft on a pair of outer ears, if they could be procured the doctor decided. Whereupon th

49、e search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man.Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, Youre going to the hospital, son.

50、 and a new person emerged (出现). His talents blossomed into genius (天才), and school and college became a series of triumphs (胜利).Later he married and led the diplomatic (政治的) service.

54、t behind will feel the lost for the rest of their lives.

55、en the names of five children. They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class. But the fact was that these students were only average (中等), and they were not the best students at all. Well, guess what? At the end of the year, all the five average students scored among t

56、he highest in the class.What made these average students change so much to become top students? The only difference was the change in their teachers attitude (态度). Because the teachers believed that these five kids were the top students, they expected (期望) more from them. And so these five average s

57、tudents began to believe and expect more from themselves. So they worked harder to do as well as they could.Do you know? If you expect the best from people, theyll usually want to give you their best. A great leader said, Treat (对待) a person just how he appears to be on the outside, and youll make h

58、im even worse. But treat a person like hes already a success, and youll help make him the best he can be.Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny, his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said, Johnny, youre the naughtiest (最顽皮的) boy in this class.

59、 Johnny had a new teacher. And on the first day of class, she met with Johnny after school and said, Johnny, Ive heard a lot about you! But do you know that I dont believe a word of it. And everyday after that, this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnn
