I was in line waiting to pay．In line there were two people before me．A little boy was buying some rather strange clothes．He chatted with anyone who was interested in the clothes and soon we learnt that he was going to a kindergarten（幼兒園） party． He had done a great job of putting together interesting costumes．

I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change（零錢）．It seemed that he had robbed his pig bank（豬形儲蓄罐）to do this shopping．However, the cashier told him he was short after counting all the money．The boy thought for a moment and said, “Please keep the shirt and I will come back with more money．

It was clear that he had already used all the money he had and he was $ 8．00 short． The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that．“I told the boy that I could pay the other half．We dug into our handbags．However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills（紙幣）and we needed the cashier to get the change for us．Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change．It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react（反應） with the same mind．All wanted to be of help．Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money．” The cashier didn’t need our ten-dollar bills．Then the lady in front of me, who had been the first to offer help, said, “Wait! I didn’t even get a chance to give anything!”

I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this．“ The little boy smiled and thanked us．We wished him the best and he left．I was left with a good feeling．I had seen the love and goodness of others all around me．The woman in front of me smiled and said, “It sure feels good to give, doesn’t it?” I smiled back and said, “Yes !”

Most English people have three names：a first name，a middle name and a family name．Their family names come last．For example，my full name is Jim Allan Green．Green is my family name．My parents gave me both of my other names．

    People don't use their middle name very much．So“John Henry Brown”is usually called（稱作）“John Brown”．People never use Mr，Mrs or Miss before their first names．So，you can say John Brown；but you should never say Mr. John．They use Mr，Mrs．Or Miss with the family name．

    Sometimes people ask me about my name．“Why do your parents call you Jim? Why do they choose （選擇） that name for you?”The answer is they don't call me Jim．They call me James．James is the name of my grandfather．In England，people usually call me Jim for short．That's because （因為） it is shorter （更短） and easier than James．

The size and shape of your ears show your character more than any other part of the face．Other parts of the face change shapes as we get older, but ears do not change their shapes．They only change in size．

Reading people’s character from their ears is a very old science．In the past people thought that a person’s ears with color was dangerous．They also thought that the shape of the ears showed if a person was musical or not．Today，too many people believe that the size and shape of the ears help you know if a person is musical．

Ears are all different，and each different thing has a meaning．Next time you look at a person，see if his or her ears are large，medium-size，or small．Look at the lobes（耳垂）．Do they stick to the face? Ears that are always red mean that a person may get angry easily．Ears that are always cold and nearly white color mean that a person has a nervous character．

（    ）1．Reading people’s character from their ears is ____________．

A． only for music                                        B． an old idea

C． very new                               D． a good way to talk with others

A． to look at his face, ears and nose                B． to look at the size, color and shape

（    ）3．Which may be the best title of the article?

A． Looking at a person in the right way           B． Ears and colors
