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 an age?” I asked.

It seems that there’s a good reason why dogs are always seen as man’s best friend. Scientists have found that dogs are the only animals that can read emotion(情感)in faces much like humans. The finding suggests that like an understanding friend, dogs can see if we are happy, sad, pleased or angry.
When humans look at a new face, their eyes usually look across the left, falling on the right hand side of the person’s face first. A possible reason for this is that the right side of the human face is better at expressing emotions.
Scientists have now shown that pet dogs also have “left gaze bias(左视偏好)”, but only when looking at human faces. No other animal has been known to do like this before. Dr. Kun Guo showed 17 dogs pictures of human, dog and monkey faces as well as something else with his team. The dogs’ eyes and heads show a strong left gaze bias when the animals see human faces. But this did not happen when they were shown other pictures, including those of dogs.
Guo suggests that over thousands of years living with humans, dogs may have developed the left gaze bias as a way to guess our emotions.
“Recent studies show that the right side of our faces can express emotions better than the left. If true, then it makes sense for dogs and humans to see the right hand side of a face first.”
Why are dogs seen as man’s best friend according to the passage?
A.Because dogs are the closest animals to humans. B.Because dogs can read the emotions in humans’ faces easily. C.Because dogs can understand us better when we feel sad. D.Because dogs are good at expressing emotions.
A.get along well with humans B.express emotions quickly C.have more understanding friends D.remember more new faces
A.dogs have been man’s best friends for thousands of years B.humans have a “left gaze bias” C.the “left gaze bias” works on all animals D.dogs can read emotions the same as humans
I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was Sociology(社会学). It was asked to go out and smile at three people.
I am a very person and thought this would be a piece of cake. Soon after, my husband, youngest son, and I went out to McDonald’s. We were standing in line, waiting to be , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to away, and then even my husband did.
As I turned around I a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor men. As I looked down at the short man, he was smiling. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God’s Light as he stood there. He said, “Good day” as he ____ the few coins he had been holding.
The young lady at the counter asked him they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss” because that was all they could . He just wanted to be warm.
Then I really felt it—the compulsion(冲动)was great that I almost reached out and hugged the little man ___ the blue eyes.
That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging(判断) my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on tray(托盘).
I then walked around the corner to the that the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed man’s hand. He looked up at me, with in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
I with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn: acceptance without condition.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens. However, we often look at the door so long that we can’t see the one that has been opened for us. It’s true that we don’t know we’ve got until we lose it, and it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been until it goes away.
Giving someone all your doesn’t mean that they’ll love you back. Don’t expect love in return. Just for it to grow in their hearts.
There are many moments in life when you miss someone so much that you want to bring them into your and hug them for real! Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, and what you want to be, you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
Happiness lies in those who have cried, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can understand the of their lives. The future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can’t go on well in your life until you let your past failure and heartaches go.
