25、fied with his life. He did not sleep well and his food did not agree with him. The situation lasted for some time. Finally, after a number of sleepless nights, he decided to see his doctor. The doctor advised a change of surroundings. “Go abroad,” he said. “But Im not good at foreign languages,” sai
26、d Mr Black. “It doesnt matter,” said the doctor. “It wont hurt you to talk a little less. Go on a trip. Take plenty of exercise. Try to lose some weight. Avoid eating rich food.” Mr Black went to Switzerland. He did not know French or German, and had to express himself through gesture. He attended a
27、 physical training course. The instructor made him bend his knees, swing his arms, stretch his neck and shake his head. He had to lie on the ground and raise his right and left legs in turn. After a time his muscles grew hard and firm. He almost put aside his financial worries and nearly forgot the
28、importance of making money. He even began to notice trees and birds. He ate and slept well. Finally he returned home. But unfortunately his improvement did not last long.

29、ings in general.46.

A physical training course. D. A money-making course.(B)Knowing about yourself means not only that you find out what you are good
31、at and what you like, it also means discovering what you are not good at and what you dont like. Both help you to see your aim in life.Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed an advanced maths course, they have actually learned a great deal about themselves. They k
32、now that they should not become engineers or physical scientists, and that they should not be good at accounting work. So failing can help a student to lead a much happier life if he or she draws the right conclusion from the failing. They may then decide on their aim and choose the kind of work the
33、y would like to do. It is impossible to decide whether or not you like something until you have tried it. If you decide you would like to play the violin,you need to take more than one lesson before you can know whether you have any interest or ability. It is not enough to want to be a great violini
34、st. You also have to like the hard and long training before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist but hate the work, forget it. Its a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are still young, and then you will come to a wise decision.49. If you say you really know you

Two years after her mothers death, Mei Chins father met with an accident. He was rushed to the hospital. Dr Lee, her fathers surgeon, advised
