When I was about 12 1 had an enemy,a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings.Week by week her list grew:I was skinny,I wasn't a good student,I was boyish,I talked too loud,and so on.I put up with her as long as I could.At last,with great anger,I ran to my father in tears.
He listened to my outburst quietly.Then he asked,"Are the things she says true or not?"
True?I wanted to know how to strike back.What did truth have to do with it?
"Mary,didn't you ever wonder what you are really like?Well,you now have that girl's opinion.Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true.Pay no attention to the other things she said."
I did as he directed and discovered to my surprise that about half the things were true.Some of them I couldn't change(like being skinny),but a good number I could and suddenly wanted to change.
For the first time in my life I got a fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy.He refused to take it.
"That's just for you,"he said."You know better than anybody else the truth about yourself,once you hear it.But you've got to learn to listen,not to close your ears in anger or hurt.When something said about you is true you'll know it.You'll find that it will echo inside you."
Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments.
What did the girl do when she could no longer bear her enemy?
A、She turned to her fathe
B、She cried to her heart's conten
C、She tried to put up with her agai
D、She tried to be her frien
【正确答案】:A
【题目解析】:根据文章描述,当女孩无法再忍受她的敌人时,她“ran to my father in tears”。这句话明确指出女孩在无法忍受时转向了她的父亲,即“She turned to her father”。文章后续描述了女孩和父亲之间的对话,以及她如何按照父亲的建议重新审视自己的优缺点。因此,答案是A,即“她转向了她的父亲”。选项B“她哭到心碎”虽然描述了女孩哭泣的情况,但并不是她无法忍受敌人时的直接反应;选项C“她试图再次忍受她”与文章中女孩最终无法忍受并寻求帮助的事实相矛盾;选项D“她试图成为她的朋友”在文章中并未提及。
