Young people and older people do not always agree. They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and playing. But in one special program in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.
Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and fun in work. Some teenagers work in the forests or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and to build houses. The adults teach them these skills.
There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too .During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo-taking or drawing. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to pass his free time.
When people live together, they should have rules. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it?”
One of the teenagers has said something about it: “You have to stop thinking only about yourself. You learn how to think about the group.”

Once a circle missed a wedge(楔子). The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly.  It admired the flowers along the way. It chatted with grasses. It enjoyed the sunshine. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on searching. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. It was so happy. It put the found piece into itself and began to roll. Now it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice the flowers or to talk to the grasses. When it rolled so quickly, it realized how different the world seemed. Then it stopped, left the found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away.
The lesson of the story , I suggested, was that in some strange sense we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything isn’t in some ways a whole man. He will never know what it feels like to yearn(渴望), to hope, to come true the dream of something better.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，判斷句子正（T）誤(F)。 （共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分）
小題1: At first, the circle couldn’t roll fast, because it wanted to chat with the grasses.
小題2: The circle didn’t find the missing piece at last.
小題3: When it was a perfect circle, it rolled too fast to notice the flowers or to talk to the grasses.
小題4: The circle stopped by the side of the road and enjoyed the sunshine.
小題5: In some days, a man still will be perfect even if he misses something.
