My mother and I started our morning by rushing into the local grocery store. I waited in line at the Starbucks counter while she around to pick up a few things.
As I was there I noticed an elderly woman, wearing layers (層) layers of old torn clothing, moving behind me in line.
She had a few toiletries(化妝品)and seemed to want the Starbucks cashier to since our queue was shorter than the grocery store queues were.
At some point I became of her moving closer behind me –it was than I was comfortable with! I instinctively (本能地) a hand over my purse and drew it closer to me. My fear and imagination raced creating wild about this homeless woman who might try to from me.
Then it was my to order. As the cashier rang up my total I discovered I was 37 cents . I called to my mother but she is hard of hearing. She asked me to what I said but she still couldn't me out.
At that point, a long grey arm, with in its sleeves, over from behind me. She laid 37 cents out on the counter, saying, "Here, We all need some sometimes."
I was ! Here was a woman who clearly had very little to and in great need herself. I had judged her and she had reached out, voluntarily, to help me!
What an amazing gift and lesson this woman gave me about others. Thank You, God!!

Many people think of the brain as a mystery. They don't know much about intelligence and how it works. When they do think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born smart, average, or dumb — and stays that way in the whole life. But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it. And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.
Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger. A person who can't lift 20 pounds when he/she starts exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time. That's because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise. And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink and you get weaker. That's why people say “Use it or lose it!”
But most people don't know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise. Inside the cortex (皮層) of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells, called neurons. The nerve cells have branches connecting them to other cells in a complicated network. Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems. When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger. The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow. Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do — like speaking a foreign language or doing algebra (代數(shù)) — seem to become easy after learning them for a period of time. The result is a stronger, smarter brain.
Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals' brains. They found out that animals that lived in a challenging environment were more “perspicacious” — they were better at solving problems and learning new things.
1.According to the first paragraph,________.
A. the function of our brain is like that of the muscle
B. until now it's impossible to explain the brain's mystery
C. many people believe one's intelligence is naturally determined
D. one's brain grows stronger as the age increases
2.Training muscles is compared to ________.
A. using the brain
B. connecting things in your brain
C. lifting weights
D. doing research about the brain
3.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about_________?
The complex structure of the brain.
B. How changes in the muscles affect the brain.
C. The importance of the brain.
D. How the brain becomes stronger by learning new things.
4.What does the underlined word “perspicacious” in the last paragraph probably mean_________?
A. Strong. B. Smart. C. Popular. D. Active.
5.The paragraph that follows the passage will most probably talk about _______.
A. the differences between animals’ brains and humans’ brains
B. the relation between human brains and muscles
C. scientists’ findings about animals’ brains
D. how to make your brain smarter through self-development
