week her list grew: I was skinny, I wasn't a good student, I was boyish, I talked too loud, and so on. I put up with her as long as I could. At last, with great anger, I ran to my father in tears.

He listened to my outburst quietly. Then he asked, "Are the things she says true or not？"

True？ I wanted to know how to strike back. What did truth have to do with it？

"Mary, didn't you ever wonder what you are really like？ Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said."

I did as he directed and discovered to my surprise that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being skinny), but a good number I could - and suddenly wanted to - change.

For the first time in my life I got a fairly clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.

"That's just for you," he said. "You know better than anybody else the truth about yourself, once you hear it. But you've got to learn to listen, not to close your ears in anger or hurt. When something said about you is true you'll know it. You'll find that it will echo inside you."

Daddy's advice bas returned to me at many important moments.

What did the girl's enemy like to do？

A．Talking with her.

B．Pointing out her weak points.

C．Reporting to the teacher.

D．Quarrelling with her.

traditional-age college freshmen are "more materialistic and less altruistic(利他主义的)"than at any time in the 17 years of the poll.

Not surprising in these hard times, the student's major objective "is to be financially well off. Less important than ever is developing a meaningful philosophy of life". It follows then that today the most popular course is not literature or history but accounting.

Interest in teaching, social service and the "altruistic" fields is at a low. On the other hand, enrollment in business programs, engineering and computer science is way up.

That's no surprise either. A friend of mine (a sales representative for a chemical company) was making twice the salary of her college instructors her first year on the job—even before she completed her two-year associate degree.

While it's true that we all need a career, it is equally true that our civilization has accumulated an incredible amount of knowledge in fields far removed from our own and that we are better for our understanding of these other contributions- be they scientific or artistic. It is equally true that, in studying the diverse wisdom of others, we learn how to think. More important, perhaps, education teaches us to see the connections between things, as well as to see beyond our immediate needs.

Weekly we read of unions who went on strike for higher wages, only to drive their employer out of business. No company; no job. How shortsighted in the long run!

But the most important argument for a broad education is that in studying the accumulated wisdom of the ages, we improve our moral sense. I saw a cartoon recently which shows a group of businessmen looking puzzled as they sit around a conference table; one of them is talking on the intercom(对讲机): "Miss Baxter", he says, "could you please send in someone who can distinguish right from wrong？"

From the long-term point of view, that's what education really ought to be about.

According to the author's observation, college students ______.

A．have never been so materialistic as today

B．have never been so interested in the arts

C．have never been so financially well off as today

D．have never attached so much importance to mutual sense
