My brother and I often fight with each other over small things. One day our father said to us, “Tomorrow we will take part in the Ray Home Sports Day. Both of you must go with me. Perhaps you can learn something from those children.” My brother laughed, “Dad, Ray is a home for physically disabled children. What can we learn from them?”
“You will see,” our father said.

She began to cry at the top of her voice.

What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions（提到） hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.
If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的順序)and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11="98," meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5="96," while love:12+15+22+5="54," and luck : 12+21+3+11="47," a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer(祈禱)? They can’t , either.
Then what else? Don’t be worried．You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(態(tài)度).Yes, attitude is the word． See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one’s attitude.
When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive (積極地) attitude towards failure(失敗),you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses.
【小題1】What is the mark of the word “money”?

A．54 B．72 C．96 D．100
【小題2】In the writer’s opinion, what is the most important thing in a person’s life?
A．Hard-work. B．Knowledge. C．Money. D．Attitude.
【小題3】According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way out is to _______.
A．a(chǎn)sk for help from others B．say your prayers to God
C．change your attitude D．try maths-solving methods (方法)
【小題4】From the passage we can learn that ______.
A．different attitudes come from different courses of life
B．mathematics can solve every problem easily in our daily life
C．failure sometimes can bring you good if you take a positive attitude
D．none of the English words except “attitude” equals to 100 or more
