A
I lived in Dallas nearly all my life with my parents and older sister. I was raised to respect others and value education. “You can be anything you want to be,” my parents always say. My parents are never without a helpful word of advice or a bit of encouragement when life gets tough.
I always knew that going to college was expected of me. After all, both of my parents are college graduates with many degrees. Even after I decided that I'd rather get married to a man who was so clearly wrong for me than go to college at 16, they never stopped telling me that they loved me and that I could do anything I wanted to do. Thankfully, they talked some sense into me(开导我别干傻事). I graduated from high school and currently attend the University of Oklahoma. I want to make the world a better place. And I know that my parents are the reason for this.
Every time I call home to tell them about a grade I received,they tell me how proud of me they are. I know there are college students out there that have no one to call home to when they get an ‘A’ on a project and I feel lucky to have my parents.
Don't get me wrong. We've had our share of problems. I was the angry teenager and they were the terrible parents that wouldn't let me stay out all night or let me get my tongue pierced (穿透). But we managed to worgh those issues. They never stopped loving me or believing in me.
Without their constant love and encouragement, I can't be successful. My parents taught me to always fight for what I believe in. And so I'm working toward something really great and can only hope that I continue to make them proud.

Give people a chance before you judge them because you really never know what’s going on beneath the surface. I know we’ve heard this all before, but it is much more difficult to do so in practice. I am always told that judging a person by what others say or my first impression is usually wrong.
It’s so easy to mamptions (臆想) and expect about someone, just to find out they were completely false. I know I’ve done this too many times! The shy girl turns out to be one of the funniest girls I ever met, the selfish girl is actually very sensitive and loving, the cocky boy is not sure of himself and so on.
I hope there is a world where we stop judging a person by what they wear, their hairstyle, their job, their car; and we simply love and accept them for who they are. Someone may have a bad hair because they over slept, or their clothes don’t match because their house burned down and lost everything. All I’m saying is, “Can we focus more on what’s going on inside a person rather than the outside?”
There are so many people who seem like everything is just fine on the outside, but the inside is angry or hurting. They don’t know how to just be themselves or they’re afraid to because they may be thought of as the “crazy” or “strange” person. I know because I used to be that person.
I truly believe everything begins with ourselves. Before we can really stop judging others by the outside we must stop judging ourselves. We must know how we treat ourselves first. Let’s stop getting in our own way and accept ourselves and others as we are.
4. The underlined word “cocky” in Paragraph 2 probably means __________.
A. lovely B. clever C. proud D. stupid
5. When we judge a person, we should pay more attention to ___________.
A. what he wears B. what he does or has
C. our first feelings and thoughts D. what’s going on inside him
6. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Some people hope that everything is fine on the outside.
B. So many people think of themselves as crazy or strange.
C. We should be ourselves and accept ourselves as we are.
D. We must learn how we treat others first, not ourselves.
7. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
B. Judge a person by his outside.
C. Learn to just be yourselves.
D. Accept what you and others are.
