Question

When I was in primary school, I got into a big argument (爭吵) with a boy in my class. I forgot what the argument was about, but I will never forget the lesson I learned that day.

I thought that I was right and he was wrong – and he thought that I was wrong and he was right. The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson.

In the middle of her desk was a large, round ball. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the ball was. “White,” he answered.?She brought us to the front of the class and asked him to stand on one side of her desk and me on the other.

I couldn’t believe he said the ball was white, when it was obviously (明顯地) black! Another argument started between us, this time about the color of the ball.

The teacher told us to change places and then asked me what color the ball was. I answered: “White.”

It was a ball with two differently colored sides, and from his side it was white. Only from my side it was black.

Sometimes we need to look at problems from the other person’s view in order to truly understand his or her perspective (觀點).

試題分析：本文通過講述作者和同學的一次爭吵，告訴我們要學會站在別人的角度看問題。作者和同學發(fā)生了爭吵，他們各持己見。老師讓他們站在兩個完全不同的角度去觀看一個兩面顏色不同的球，當他們調(diào)換位置之后，他們恍然大悟。

1. I was in primary school, I got into a big argument (爭吵) with a boy in my class.可知開始時，作者和男孩大吵了一架，故選C

2. was a ball with two differently colored sides, and from his side it was white. Only from my side it was black.可知這個球兩面的顏色不一樣，所以作者站到男孩那邊時就改變了答案。 故選B。

3. we need to look at problems from the other person’s view in order to truly understand his or her perspective (觀點)。可知這個故事告訴我們，要學會站在別人的角度看問題。 故選A
