it, or at least learn something. wrong!think about it. have you ever been 39 by someone and said to him, “thank you so much for showing me that im wrong and youre right.”? or, has anyone you know ever 40 you when you corrected them, or made yourself “right” at their 41 ? of course not. the truth is, all of us 42 to be corrected. we all want our positions to be 43 and understood by others. being listened to and heard is one of the greatest 44 of the human heart. and those who learn to 45 are the most loved and respected. those who are in the 46 of correcting others are often resented and 47 .a wonderful way for becoming more peaceful and loving is to practise 48 others the joy of being right- give them the glory. 49 correcting. when someone says, “i really feel its important to:”, rather than jumping 50 and saying, “no, its more important to:”, simply let it go and allow their statement to 51 . the people in your life will become less defensive and more 52 . they will appreciate you more than you could ever have 53. youll discover the joy of joining in and witnessing other peoples 54 , which is far more rewarding than a battle of egos (自我). starting today, let others be “ 55 ”,

girl no more? madonna says writing childrens books is more satisfying than being a movie star.her book, the english roses, went on sale on september 15th, appearing in 100 countries and in 30 languages as the first in her series of tales for children. the pop diva (女歌唱家), whose only book until now was the 1992 photo essay titled “sex”, said she wrote the books to teach children some of the life lessons shes learned over the years.“the most fun that ive had of all the things ive done successfully has been to write these books. a lot of it has to do with the fact that im not doing it to become more famous, and im not doing it to become richer. im doing it because i want to share something i know with children.”hours after its release, the 48page book was already no. 8 on amazon, coms sales list. the first print is 1 million copies worldwide, with more than 750,000 in the united states. the english roses is about a friendship shared by four girls and their mutual (共同的) envy of a beautiful classmate, with illustrations (插图) by fashion artist jeffrey fulvimari.“there is one lifegiving force in the world,” madonna declared. “when we disconnect from this lifegiving force, thats when we bring pain and suffering into our lives. each of the stories has to do with different ways you disconnect from god. ”madonna also said she was deeply affected by the experience of raising two children, lourdes, 6, and rocco, 3. the english roses is the latest among a growing number of celebritywritten childrens books.the next book in the series, “mr peabodys apples,”will be out in

lessonsc.teach children how to become famous d.share her success with childrenblondonlaura spence has excellent grades, a place at harvard university and a us $25,000 a year scholarship. the british government says that is scandal(丑闻).not because the 18-year-old girl is going to harvard, but because she was rejected by oxford university. her case makes people talk about the long-running problems about elitism(精英主义) in british education.“i think its a scandal if a child has to go to harvard rather than getting into oxford, dont you?” education secretary david blunkett said on may 26th in an interview on bbc radio.british treasury chief gordon brown said in a speech on may 25th it was “an absolute scandal”, a girl with those grades was turned down by oxfords magdalen college. he noted that spence comes from monkseaton in northeastern england, where people sometimes complain they get fewer chances than people living in the richer, more populous south.oxford and cambridge university now take the majority of their students53 percentfrom publicly funded schools. elite(精英)private schools such as eton and harrow account for the other 47 percent, even though they serve only 7 percent of secondary students.a bbc reporter had seen notes of spences interview at magdalen. “as with other comprehensive school pupils, shes low in confidence and difficult to draw out of herself in spite of being able to think on her feet,” the bbc quoted the notes as saying. still, the notes concluded that spence “will be an excellent doctor.”“it appears as if some of our institutions have admissions procedures which may be because of absurd prejudices against children from comprehensive schoolsare not giving these children a fair crack of the whip”, education minister wicks told the bbc.60.laura

cant stop them and the internet is a complete reproduction soil. they seem harmless in small doses, but large imports threaten japans very uniqueness, say critics. “they are foreign words and they are infecting the japanese language”.“sometimes i feel like i need a translator to understand my own language, ”says yoko fujimura with little anger, a 60-year-old tokyo restaurant worker.“its becoming incomprehensible”.its not only japan who is on the defensive. countries around th globe are wet through their hands over the rapid spread of american english. cocacola,for example, is one of the most recognized terms on earth.it is made worse for japan, however, by its unique writing system. the country writes all imported utterances(言论) except chinesein a different script called katakana (片假名). it is the only country to keep up such a difference. katakana takes far more space to write than kanjithe core pictograph (象形文字) characters that the japanese borrowed from china 1,500 years ago. because it stands out, readers complain that sentences packed with foreign words start to look like extended strings of lights. as if that werent enough, katakana terms tend to get puzzling. for example, digital camera first appears as degitaru kamera. then they became the more earpleasing digi kamey. but kamey is also the japanese word for turtle. “its very disappointing not knowing what young people are talking about,” says humorously minoru shiratori, a 53yearold bus driver. “sometimes i cant tell if theyre discussing cameras or turtles.”in a bid to stop the flood of katakana, the government has formed a foreign words committee to find suitable japanese replacements. the committee is slightly different from frenchstyle language police, which try to support a law that forbids advertising in english. rather, committee members and traditionalists hope a nonstop campaign of persuasion, gentle criticism and leadership by example can turn the tide.67.according to the author, the reason why the japanese is infectd greatly by english is . a.that nothing can prevent it from entering into japanb.that english is the most recognized language in the worldc.that the government has not set up a special administration department to control this trend before it becomes popular in japand.not clearly mentioned in this passage68.by saying
