About a month ago I was present at a serious occasion--the reading of a will. I can remember one passage that particularly struck me. It ran something 【B1】 this.
"And I direct that $10 000 be 【B2】 to old William B, whom I have wished to help for many years, 【B3】 always put off doing so." It 【B4】 the last words of a dying man. But the story does not 【B5】 there. When the lawyers came to 【B6】 out the bequest (遗赠 ), they discovered that old William B had 【B7】, too, and so the 【B8】 deed was lost.
I felt rather 【B9】 about that. It seemed to me a most regrettable 【B10】 that William should not have had his $10 000 just 【B11】 somebody kept putting 【B12】 giving it to him. And from 【B13】 accounts, William could have done with the 【B14】 . But I am sure 【B15】 there are thousands of kindly little deeds waiting to be 【B16】 today, which are being put off" 【B17】 later."
George Herbert, in praise of good intentions, 【B18】 that "One of these days is better than 【B19】 of these days." But I say that 【B20】 is better than all.

An increase in reading rate usually results in an increase in reading comprehension.
He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side; if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion. The rational position for him would be suspension of judgment, and unless he contents himself with that, he is either led by authority, or adopts, like the generality of the world, the side to which he feels the most inclination. Nor is it enough that he should hear the arguments of adversaries from his own teachers, presented as they state them, and ac- companied by what they offer as refutations, or bring them into real contact with his own mind. He must be a- ble to hear them from persons who actually believe them; who defend them in earnest, and do their very utmost for them. He must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form. he must feel the whole force of the difficulty which the true view of the subject has to encounter and dispose of; else he will never really possess himself of the portion of truth which meets and removes that difficulty. Ninety-nine in a hundred of what are called educated men are in this condition; even of those who can argue fluently for their opinions. Their conclusion may be true, but it might be false for anything they know; they have never thrown themselves into the mental position of those who think differently from them and considered what such persons may have to say; and consequently they do not, in any proper sense of the word, know the doctrines which they themselves pro- fess. They do not know the doctrines which they themselves profess. They do not know those parts of it which explain and justify the remainder; the considerations which show that a fact which seemingly conflicts with an- other is reconcilable with it, or that, of two apparently strong reasons, one and not the other ought to be preferred.
According to the author, it is always advisable to______.
