Recently,my students couldn't get on well with each other,so I decided to have them play a game. I told each student to bring a plastic bag with a few tomatoes in it to school. Each student would "name" their tomatoes after the people they did not like. Therefore,the number of tomatoes would be different depending on how many people each student disliked.

The next day,all of the students brought their tomatoes to school. Some of them had just one or two tomatoes,while others had as many as five or six. I then told the students that they would have to carry their tomatoes with them wherever they went for one week.

Several days went by. Some of the students started to complain,as their tomatoes started to rot （腐爛） and smell bad. The students who carried more tomatoes also complained about how heavy their bags were.

One week later,the game was over. I asked,"How did you feel about carrying your tomatoes for a week?"

The students complained once again. I simply smiled and said,"This is what it's like to carry hate in your heart. You have to carry "it" with you wherever you go. If you can't stand carrying rotten tomatoes for one week,can you imagine having hate in your heart for a whole lifetime?"

It can be exhausting to carry hate in your heart for a whole lifetime. Forgive others and move on with your life.

1.The number of tomatoes the students were asked to carry depended on __________.

A.the size of the tomatoes B.the name of the tomatoes

C.the weight of the tomatoes D.the number of the people they hated

2.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refer to?

A.The student. B.Hate. C.Heart. D.The tomato.

3.Why did the students start to complain after several days?

A.Because the game was over.

B.Because they hated the tomatoes.

C.Because the tomatoes started to rot and smell bad.

D.Because carrying tomatoes made them look stupid.

4.What is the writer's opinion in the passage?

A.Learn from the people you like. B.Stand the hate as long as you can.

C.Think more about the people you like. D.Forgive others and make your heart light.
