A Master was walking through the fields one day when a young man, a troubled look upon his face, approached him.
“On such a beautiful day, it must be difficult to stay so 36 ,”the Master said.
“Is it? I hadn’t 37 ,” the young man said , turning to look around.
“ 38 me if you like.”The Master walked to the edge of a 39 pond.
“Please sit down,” the Master invited, patting the 40 next to him. “Now, find a small stone, please,” the Master 41 .
“What?”
“A stone. Please find a small stone and throw it in the pond.”
Searching 42 himself, the young man got a small stone and threw it as 43 as he could. “Tell me what you see,” the Master 44 .
Not missing a single 45 , the man looked at the water’s surface. “ I see ripples(漣漪).’’ Where did the ripples 46 from?”
“From the stone I threw in the pond, Master.”
“Please 47 your hands into the water and stop the ripples,” the Master asked.
In 48 ,the young man stuck his hands in the water as a ripple neared, only to cause 49 ripples. The young man was now 50 confused.
“Were you able to stop the ripples with your hands?” the Master asked.
“No, of course not.”
“ 51 you had stopped the stone from 52 the water to begin with? ” The Master smiled. “Next time you are 53 with your life, catch the stone before it hits the water. Do not spend time trying to 54 what you have done but 55 change what you are going to do before you do it.” The Master looked kindly upon the young man.

短文大意：
大師在田野中行走，這時，一個滿面愁容的年輕人向他走來。
“天氣這么好，神情一直保持這么嚴肅一定不容易。”大師說道。
“是嗎？我沒注意到。”年輕人一邊回答，一邊轉身環顧四周。他的目光從周遭的景物上掃過，但卻似乎無所觸動。
“如果你愿意，就和我一起走走吧。”大師走到一灣平靜的池水旁。“請坐。”大師用手拍了拍身旁的地面，招呼著年輕人。
“ 現在， 請找一塊小石頭來。”大師吩咐道。
“什么？”“一塊石頭。請找塊小石頭并把它投進池塘里。
”年輕人在身旁四處搜尋，抓了塊鵝卵石使勁向遠處投進了池塘。“告訴我你看到了什么。”大師詢問道。
年輕人睜大了眼睛目不轉睛地盯著水面，唯恐錯過一絲細節。“我看到一圈圈漣漪。”“這些漣漪從何而來呢？”
“是我投入池中的石子激起的，大師。”
“請把手伸到水里，止住那些漣漪。”大師說。雖然不明白大師的想法，但當漣漪接近池邊時，年輕人仍把手探入水中，卻只激起了更多的漣漪。年輕人現在已經完全陷入困惑之中。事情會怎樣發展下去呢？
“你剛才用手將漣漪平息了嗎？”大師問。
“沒有，當然沒有。”
“如果你一開始沒有把鵝卵石拋進水中，會怎樣呢？”大師一笑，年輕人看上去并沒因此而感到不快。
“今后你在生活中遇到不快時，在‘石頭’入‘水’前就要去阻止它。不要費時試圖去補救已經做過的事，而要在行動之前改變自己原本的打算。”大師慈祥地看著年輕人。

Remembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.
Recite and repeat in conversation.
When you hear a person's name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.
Ask the other person to recite and repeat.
You can let other people help you remember their names. After you've been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you're making to learn their names.
Admit you don't know.
Admitting that you can't remember someone's name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them w ill feel sympathy if you say. "I'm working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?"
Use associations.
Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: "Vicki Cheng - tall, black hair." To reinforce your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.
Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.
When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.
Go early.
Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That's fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others - an automatic review for you.
How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?
A. They will be moved. B. They will be annoyed.
C. They will be delighted. D. They will be discouraged.
If you can't remember someone's name, you may _______.
A. tell him the truth B. tell him a white lie
C. ask him for pity D. ask others to help you
When you meet a group of people, it is better to remember ______
A. all their names B. a couple of names first
C. just their last names D. as many names as possible
What does the text mainly tell us?
A. Tips on an important social skill. B. Importance of attending parties.
C. How to make use of associations. D. How to recite and repeat names.
