After coming to America， the use of "yes" and "no" brings me a lot of trouble， because the use in Korean （韩语） is a different from that in English． For example， if I am asked， "Haven't you had dinner yet？" and I have not had dinner yet， then in Korean I usually say "Yes， I haven't．" But in English， I have to say， "No， I haven't．"
Because of this， my friends often get the opposite meaning from what I want to give them． One day only a month after I came to America， I had dinner with an American student， Bob． He asked me some questions and I answered them sincerely． A few days later， I found some roommates thought that I came from North Korea． One day ，I stopped by Bob's room and asked why he was spreading the wrong information． "Oh， you told me that． Don't you remember？" he said， "When I asked you ，'You are not from North Korea，are you？'you clearly answered， 'Yes， of course．' Didn't it mean that you are from North Korea？"
The different use also causes problems between my friends and me． One weekend night， my roommate Mark brought his children into the dorm（宿舍）． They make some noise while playing． I did not mind the noise since I was just watching TV． The next morning， I met Mark． He asked me with a smile， "Didn't my children make noise last night？ Didn't it make you uncomfortable？" Because I did not mind the noise at all， I clearly said "Yes!" The smile suddenly disappear from Mark's face， and he said， "I am sorry about that． They are going right now． See you later．" I could not understand what he was sorry about， and I just said， "OK． Bye!" After a moment of thinking， I realized how stupid I was． That evening， I explained to Mark and said sorry to him． I knew he thought that I had been very rude．
Now to deal with this problem， I have set simple rules： First， take a five﹣second break if I am not sure of "yes" or "no"， Second， use "pardon me"， so the person may explain to me in a direct way．

（4）If the writer is not sure of "yes" or "no" next time， he will say ．
A． " pardon me"
B． "yes"

That year， I was a Junior 2student． Falling off the stairs hurt me in the head． Almost everyone thought I was dead． But they were wrong． However， it was difficult to get back to normal （正常的） life． I had to leave school and learn everything， walking， talking， and yes， maths．
To help me with that task， Mrs. Pillar volunteered to come to the hospital and later to my house once a week． We began with basic maths skills， As time passed by， I made progress．
I remembered very vividly how she came to my home on Sundays， sat with me at the kitchen table， and threw different coins on the table． She asked me to show her 38cents， 17cents， 63cents． It was challenging， but she also made it fun．
After a year and a half， I had progressed a lot， both in body and mind， to return to school． Seven years later， I graduated from the University of Texas at the top of my class．
As year went by， I always kept in touch with Mrs. Pillar． Unluckily， one day my parents told me that Mrs. Pillar had been in hospital because she suffered a stroke（中风）．
Now it was my turn to help her． Mrs． Pillar lay in bed， unable to speak and know anybody around． I pulled some coins out of my pocket， dropped them on her bed， and asked her to show me 12cents． The nurse thought that my action was very strange until one day Mrs. Pillar smiled happily as I began working with her﹣just as she had worked with my years before． She make progress every day and was moved out of ICU（重症监护室） and finally out of hospital．
One day， I called to wish her a happy New Year． She spoke into the phone excitedly， "Happy New Year to you and your family， Michael． Thank you for everything you've done for me．" I quickly said， "Thank you for everything you've done for me．"

Life offers so many lessons， both practical and personal， that you're never too young to begin learning them． Here are some skills to learn as soon as possible．
Money Management 
When you start receiving money of your own． It's time to start understanding your relationship with money． In a world where you can buy any and every object， the key is to save money by buying only essentials （必需品） and a treat sometimes．
Cooking 
One great way to save money is to learn to cook for yourself． Beyond that， cooking at home also helps you control your diet for better health． If you start doing this at an early age， you will not have to depend on your parents too much．
Keeping Promises： 
Promises are a matter of honesty and should be made with care． We must learn from an early age that our word must be followed up by action． When it isn't， others will quickly lose trust in us and not respect us．
Accepting Rejection （拒绝） 
Though you must． be careful not to break your word， others' promises aren't always kept． Learn about it early， and you won't be hurt easily． Also， not every job application or desired （渴望的） friendship will work out， so remember that there are more fish in the sea．
Lifelong Learning 
No matter how old you get， there will always be things beyond your understanding． It's better to learn to be modest now rather than take a proud fall later in life． Be open to new experiences and keep learning． And it's never too late to start．
（1）How many skills are talked about in the passage？
（2）Which two skills can help you save money？
（3）If one of your friends breaks his promise to you， will you be angry？ Why or why not？
Do you know what you'd like to be when you grow up？ It takes most people many years to find this out． For the young artist Alexandra Nechita， it never really seemed to be a question． From the day she began drawing at the age of two， she was an artist．
Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985and moved to California when she was still a baby． As a little child， she loved colouring in her colouring books． Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children， so they took away her colouring books． Alexandra began drawing her own pictures and colouring them in．
By the time Alexandra was seven years old， she had begun painting with oil paints． When Alexandra took a local art class， her teacher was amazed at the young artist's unusual style of painting． Alexandra's work was similar in some ways to the paintings by famous artists like Picasso． These artists did not use a realistic style of painting． They allowed their imaginations to play an important part in their work． The interesting thing was that little Alexandra had never seen the work of these artists． People called her "Little Picasso"． This was a great honour， but Alexandra's style of painting was all her own．
Alexandra's first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library when she was only eight years old． People were amazed at how young Alexandra was， but mostly they loved her imaginative artwork． It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to become famous． She appeared on television programs and in newspapers and magazines all over the world． The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands of dollars． But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork． She just cannot imagine doing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction．
Today， Alexandra is a full﹣time artist． She also works to help support the arts in schools． Alexandra is a strong believer in the power of art as a tool of communication and a bridge to building peace throughout the world．
