What do you think?”I bit my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the ugliest dress I had ever seen?“
19、Its perfect for church,” my mother continued delightedly.“I wish someone had made a dress like this for me.”Too bad you cant wear it, I thought.

21、for the door. But I had to wait on the steps while my parents chatted with their friends. Just a little while longerThen out of the corner of my eye I saw the Pearces coming near. Before I could escape, Dennis was right beside me.I started talking, hoping if I kept it up he wouldnt notice my ugly dr
22、ess. “Im going to college in September,” I said. “Thats great,” Dennis replied “I got accepted to police academy（学院）.”“Wow!” I said. Somehow I kept the conversation going. The next thing I knew Dennis had asked me out on a date!We courted（恋爱）through college, and eventually got married. Months after
23、our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day he had first asked me out.“Certainly I do,” he said.“You were always quiet in school. I didnt think youd be much fun. But you were so lively when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better.” Maybe that yellow dress wasnt what

29、eness(狂怒) makes error a fault.”To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “brings with folly and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him. S
