When I was about 12 1 had an enemy,a girl who liked to point out

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. Why did the girl's father ask her to make the list?
A、He wanted to keep the list at hom
B、He didn't know what the girl's enemy had sai
C、He wanted the girl to talk bac
D、He wanted her to check if she really had these weak point
【正确答案】:D
【题目解析】:在文章中,当女孩向父亲抱怨她的敌人总是指出她的缺点时,父亲并没有直接安慰她或为她辩护,而是提出了一个建议:让她列出敌人说的所有事情,并标记出哪些是真的。这一行为的目的不是为了保存这个列表,也不是因为父亲不知道女孩敌人的言论(因为女孩已经详细描述了),更不是为了让女孩反击。 父亲的真正目的是让女孩面对自己的真实情况,即她是否真的存在那些缺点。这是一个自我反思的过程,让女孩有机会客观地审视自己,找出需要改进的地方。因此,父亲要求她列出并核对这些缺点的真正意图是帮助她认识到自己的弱点,并鼓励她进行改进。 所以,正确答案是D,即父亲希望她检查自己是否真的存在这些弱点。
