As a kid, I used to spend my summers with my grandparents on their farm in Texas. I helped

them with farming at times. Luckily, they a caravan, a kind of car designed for people to

live in while travelling. Every few summers, we'd travel together around the US and Canada.

On one trip, I was about 10 years old. I was playing around in the back of the car my

grandfather was driving. My grandmother had the passenger seat. She smoked through the trip,

and I hated the , which made me cough a lot. I read about smoking in an article. It says that

every puff(吸) of a cigarette takes two minutes off your life. I the number of cigarettes per

day and the puffs per cigarette. When I came up with a reasonable(合理的) number, I was .

So what's wrong with this? For example, we think that short boys can't possibly be good

basketball players. The girls who love to be dressed up can't be excellent students. Or we think shy

students can't be good at giving speeches. These are typical(典型的) examples of stereotypes.

Stereotypes make people form a wrong opinion about others at first sight. In fact, it takes a lot

more than just looking at a person to know and understand him or her. The following is my story.

One day, it was snowing, but not very heavily. Before class, I collected all the exercise books

and sent them to the teachers' office. The exercise books looked piles in my arms, so I could

hardly see the ground. Suddenly, I slipped over(滑倒) and dropped all the exercise books I was

carrying.

Mike and I had been classmates for over 2 years, but we had never shared more than 5

sentences together. He was a boy with few words, but I liked talking. We were totally different. I

didn't like him and didn't want to be seen at that moment.

"Anything serious?" His words brought me out of my thoughts. "I saw you sitting on the

ground from the back window, so I rushed here. Let me help you!" He helped me up and picked

all the exercise books up.

Seeing this, I was so moved that I couldn't say a single word.

We walked towards the teachers' office and this time, he talked a lot to me. I found quite a

different Mike.

I took a deep breath and said to myself, "I nearly made a big mistake — judging(判断) MIke

only by his appearance."

B: Shy students can't be good at giving speeches.

C: Short boys can't possibly be good basketball players.

D: The girls who love to be dressed up can't be excellent students.

2. Why did the writer dislike Mike at the beginning?

A: Because the writer didn't know Mike at all.

B: Because Mike didn't hand in his exercise book.

C: Because the writer thought they weren't the same type.

D: Because Mike didn't help the writer collect the exercise books.

A: we'd better not go outside on snowy days

B: we should get along well with our classmates

C: people shouldn't judge someone at first sight

Have you ever wondered how we know the things that we know? How do we know, for

example, that the stars are really huge balls of fire like the Sun and very far away? And how do we

know that the Earth is a smaller ball turning round one of those stars, the Sun?

The key to these questions is "evidence", which means the facts, signs or objects that make

you believe something is true.
