I have 35 friends, and we always play football together at school or in the park after school. We like staying out late to play football. We often play for three hours or more and forget when to stop. Then I 36 trouble at home because my parents do not allow me to play outside after 6 p.m. I really do not understand why they are so strict. I feel stressed and angry37 . I believe it is important for us to spend some time on our ho

When I was about 12, a girl in my class liked to point out my problems. I was too thin; I wasn’t a good student; I talked too much, I was too 46 , and so on. At last, I became very angry and ran to my father. He listened to me 47 . Then he asked, "Are these things true or not? Do you know what you are really like? Go and make a 48 of what she said and find the 49 that are true."
I did as he told me. To my great 50 , I discovered that about half of the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin). But there were things I could and wanted to change. For the 51 time, I got a clear 52 of myself.
I brought the list back to Dad. He refused to take it. "That’s just for you. " he said, "You know the truth about 53 better than anyone else. When people say something that is true about you, you should find it helpful. "
Our world is full of people who think they know your business. Don’t 54 your ears and feel 55 . Listen to them.
