I am a person who can get angry easily. But since I read an article 1 by my English teacher, things have changed a lot. I’m2 at a boarding (寄宿的) school. So I3 learn not only how to study well, but also how to4 with others. Some of us are outgoing 5 others are quiet. It is 6 that people have problems and arguments. So how can we be tolerant（宽容的，容忍的）? Smiling 7 others is the easiest way. Another way is 8 if your ideas are reasonable (有道理的) and right 9 having an argument. If others’ ideas are really not good, keep an open mind. Try10 them. 11 a friend is much better than having an enemy after all. Also 12 point out other’s mistakes in public. This will make people lose 13 and get angry. If you really want to help, send a letter instead. On the other hand, if 14 points out your disadvantages, don’t be angry. Just think this is a person who really __15___to help you and become friends. Remember: Tolerance makes life easier.
