I used to hate my mother because she worked a lot and didn't spend much time with me. Then one Friday morning I took part in a three-day self-help program for teenagers. Whether you believe it or not, that weekend changed my life.
About 100 other teenagers were there. During the first two days I met a lot of great people. I was glad because I made so many friends there.
On Sunday, the leader did an interesting exercise called "Chocolate or Toys". He asked a girl which she liked better, chocolate or toys. She chose chocolate. Then he asked her to choose again between chocolate and chocolate. Of course, she didn't have a choice.
This exercise told us that sometimes we don't have a choice in life, and that sometimes we have to accept something, rather than complaining(抱怨).
A girl stood up and started talking about her mom who was a drug addict (吸毒者) and how much she hated her mother.
"I want a new mom," she cried.
"Unluckily, you can't have one," the leader replied.
"You have to accept the mother that you have."
This hit me hard. I realized that, for better or worse, my mom was my mom. I couldn't choose another mom, but I could try to make the best of the situation.
26. The writer used to hate his mother because .
A. she didn't care for him
B. she had no time to be with him

27. The self-help program for teenagers lasted .
A. a week B. two days C. three days D. only one day
28. The writer started to change his thinking .
A. during the first two days of the program
B. after the exercise named "Chocolate or Toys"
C. as soon as he came to the program
D. after he left the program some time
29. From the end of the passage, we can know that .
A. the writer used to love his mom for years
B. the writer's mom is a very bad person
C. the writer's mom loves her son very much
D. the writer will try to get along with his mother
30. What is the main idea of this passage
A. Choices can be made as we like.
B. Everyone should take part in a self-help program.

D. We should try to accept things instead of complaining about them.
