This is a good rule to follow when trying to judge the intelligence(智力 ) of others. Some
24、 people have minds that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an great gift in writing may be speechless before a pretty gift. When he speaks, he may not be able to find the right words. But you dont make the mistake of thinking him stupid. With a pen and paper, he can express him self
25、better than anybody. Other people may fool you into overestimating(过高估计 ) their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens attentively(注意地 ) and takes notes in class is sure to make a good impression(印象 ) on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom o
26、f the class. It all boils down to this you cant judge someone by appearance. The only way to judge a persons intelligence is to know him. Then you can see his reaction(反应 ) to different situations. The more situations you see, the better your judgement is likely to be. So take your time. Dont judge

30、igence 60 This old story is about an old man and a clever monkey. Aesop, a Greek writer first told the story many years ago. This monkey belonged to the old man. The old man likes the garden very much. When birds came to the gar den the monkey chased them away. He also helped the old man in many oth
31、er ways. The old man often fell asleep during the day in his chair. Then the monkey sat at the old mans side and chased the flies away from the old mans face. One hot afternoon in the summer, the old man was asleep in his chair. A fly came and sat on the end of the old mans nose. The monkey chased i
32、t away. Soon the fly came back and sat on the old mans nose again. The monkey chased it away. This continued about four or five times. The monkey at last became very angry.

Men worke
36、d outside the home and earned the income to raise their families, while women cooked the meals and there was not much opportunity for men or women to exchange their roles. But by the middle of this century, mens and womens roles were becoming less firmly fixed. In the 1950s, economic and social succ
37、ess was the aim of the typical American. But in the 1960s a new force called the counterculture developed. The people involved in this movement did not value the middle-class American goals. The counterculture presented men and women with new role choices. Taking more interest in child care, men beg
38、an to share child-raising tasks with their wives. Actually some young men and women moved to communal homes or farms where the economic and child care responsibilities were shared equally by both sexes. In addition, many Americans did not value the traditional male role of soldier. Some young men re
39、fused to be drafted as soldiers to fight in the war in Iraq. In terms of numbers, the counterculture was not a very large group of people. But its influence spread to many parts of American society. Working men of all classes began to change their economic and social patterns. Industrial workers and

42、tionally male occupations: police work, banking, dentistry, and construction work. Women were asking for equal work, and equal opportunities for promotion.
