It's never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of apologizing. Look back with honesty and think how often you' ye judged roughly, said unkind things, pushed yourself ahead at tire expense of a friend. Then count the occasions when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isn't it？ Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that when even a small wrong has been committed, some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed; and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and regret expressed.
I remember a doctor friend, the late Clarence Lieb, telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of' signs: headaches, insomnia and stomach trouble. No physical cause could be found. Finally Dr. Lieb said to the man, "Unless you tell me what's worrying you, f can't help you".
After some hesitation, the man confessed that, as executor of his father' s will, he had been cheating his brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance. Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a cheque as the first step in restoring their good relation. He then went with him to the mail box in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears. "Thank you, "he said, "I think I'm cured. "And he was.
A heart felt apology can not only heal a damaged relationship but also make it stronger. If you can think of someone who deserves an apology from you, someone you have wronged, or judged too roughly, or just neglected, do something about it right now.
When we have done something wrong, we should______.

听力原文： When my son Ryan saw a T-shirt on sale for 5 dollars marked down from 8, he told me, "We'll save 3 dollars if we buy it now.' He looked at me in surprise when I answered, "We'll save 5 dollars if we don't buy it at all."
Today's children get lots of messages and values from television and from friends. They an encouraged to buy things they don't need. What they need is an understanding of the value of the dollar. How do children learn the important facts of life？ Most schools do not teach them. It is up to parents to help their children.
To learn about money children need to have some. Early on, parents often handed out money on an as-needed basis. But experts say paying certain amount of money each week is the best way to teach children the meaning of money, how to use it and how to plan.
But how much should the parents give'？. Some experts suggest giving one dollar for each year of age, but Dr. Olivia Mellan disagrees: "I think 5 dollars a week is too much for a S-year-old, and 15 dollars is probably not enough for a 15-year-old." What's right depends on three things: the child's level of development, how much you can give, and what you expect him to pay for.
However much you give them, children will soon feel they need more. But Sharon M. Danes, a professor at the University of Minnesota, insists that children don't need a raise each year. "There's no lesson to be learned when children expect an increase just because they are a year older, " she says. "What they should learn is how to be good money earners, savers and spenders."

The long years of food shortage in this country have suddenly given way to apparent abundance. Stores and shops are choked with food. Yet, instead of joy, there is widespread uneasiness and confusion: why do food prices keep on rising？ when there seems to be so much more food about？ Is the abundance only temporary？ Does it mean that we need to think less now about producing more food at home？ No one knows what to expect.
The recent growth of export surpluses on the world food market has certainly been unexpectedly great, partly because a strange sequence(连续) of two successful grain harvests in North America is now being followed by a third. Most of Britain' s overseas suppliers of meat, too, are offering more this year and home production has also risen.
But the effect of all this on the food situation in his country has been made worse by a simultaneous rise in food prices, due chiefly to the. gradual curling down of government support for food. The shops are overstocked with food not only because there is more food available, but also because people, frightened by high prices, are buying less of it.
Moreover, the rise in domestic prices has come at a time when world prices have begun to fall, with the result that imported food, with the exception of grain, is often cheaper than the home-produced variety. And now grain prices, too, are falling. Consumers are beginning to ask why they should not be enabled to benefit from this trend.
The significance of these developments is not lost on farmers. The older generation have seen it all happen before.: Despite the present price and market guarantees, farmers fear they are about to be squeezed between cheap food imports and a shrinking home market. Present production is running at 51 per cent above pre-war levels, and the government has called for an expansion to 60 per cent by 1956; but repeated ministerial advice is carrying little weight and the expansion programme is not working very well.
Why is there" widespread uneasiness and confusion" about the food situation in Britain？
A．Spring and summer.B．Spring and fall.C．Winter and summer.D．Fall and winter.
Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
听力原文： If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington, concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!
