话题: 人与自然
Absolute agony!
Dear Agony Aunt,
I’m in ________ total mess here — hope you can help me out!
I’m 17, and a member of our school basketball team. I’m crazy ________ basketball, and pretty good at it too, which is probably ________ I was so mad when we lost our last match. We played well, but I felt the team were let down by one member, our point guard. The point guard is a key player, ________ it was like he wasn’t even on the court! ________ (disappoint) by his behaviour, I said all this to my best friend. I was just letting ________ steam really, because I was so angry, but then my friend went and told everyone else ________ I’d said.

This is so totally awkward. I’m really angry ________ my friend — what should I say to him And should I say anything at all to my teammate
Embarrassed and ________ (shame), I can’t concentrate ________ anything. Please help!
There is ________ old American saying, “Loose lips sink ships.” This means that if you speak too much about something, especially to people ________ you don’t know so well, it’ll cause all kinds of trouble.

The situation here is so much ________ (bad) because the “loose lips” were your best friend’s. ________ (treat) this way, you’re sure ________ (feel) hurt — we should always be able to trust those closest ________ us, and it hurts even more when we find we can’t.
But I have to say that it’s ________ (part) your fault, isn’t it You admit that you were “letting off steam”. It is understandable in that situation, ________ we should always think before we speak.

Here’s what you need to do. First, ________ (apology) to your teammate. If you ever want to win any more basketball games (and I’m sure you do!), you need to work together, and that means ________ (communicate) with each other clearly and resolving conflicts. So have a chat with your teammate. Tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.

Then, talk to your friend. Friendship should be one of the ________ (great) things in the world, but sometimes it can be difficult. Again, your strategy is clear communication. Tell your friend you’re angry with him ________ repeating what you said and making the situation ________ (bad), but that you want to move on. Approached in this way, your friendship will soon ________ (repair).

Thirdly, and perhaps most importantly, think about your own behaviour. Don’t say too much when you’re angry! Filled with anger, you tend ________ (say) whatever comes to your mind. This gives people the wrong signal. Take a deep breath, calm down, and always remember: think first, speak later. If you feel one of your teammates isn’t pulling their weight, then raise your concerns ________ a professional way with your team coach.
If you think about other ________ (people) feelings as well as your own, you’ll soon find everything works out.

________ (write) more than two hundred years ago, these lines by Walter Scott remain one of the most well-known excerpts of Scottish poetry:
Oh, what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practise to deceive!
We all know that ________ (honest) is an important value and that ________ (lie) is wrong, but who can honestly say that they’ve never told a lie Perhaps we comfort ourselves with the knowledge ________ most of the lies we tell are “white lies”: little lies that we tell to protect others ________ the truth.

We’ve all surely had the experience of someone cooking a meal for us that we don’t like. The ________ (major) of us of course don’t tell the truth — we lie and say that the food is “delicious”.
Or if a friend asks us ________ we think of their new haircut, we say “It’s great!”, even if we think it’s awful. But ________ what extent can we justify telling white lies like these

One of the main reasons for telling a white lie ________ (be) to try to make others feel better. However, when we lie and say that someone’s haircut looks good, ________ when we say that we love a meal that we ________ (secret) hate, are we really hoping to improve the situation for someone else Perhaps we are in fact lying to protect ourselves from the disappointment and ________ (angry) of others.

Another reason for telling a white lie is ________ (give) encouragement. Say for example that your friend asks you what you think of his singing.

Stop for a moment and consider that perhaps your friend wants some frank ________ (comment) from you so that they can improve. Or perhaps, they need to know that they should look ________ a different hobby.

Finally, we may also tell a white lie when we want to protect others from bad news. If you’ve had a bad day, do you tell your parents about it, or do you hide your tears and lie that your day was “fine” If ________ latter, don’t you think your parents would want to listen to you and understand your feelings Wouldn’t it be better ________ (respect) their concern for you and ask for their advice

Going back to Walter Scott’s lines, we may find even white lies have results we cannot know ________ advance. Perhaps the meal you said was “delicious” will ________ (serve) every time you visit. Would your friend trust your opinion again if he found out you ________ (lie) about his “wonderful” singing How would you expect others to ________ (true) understand your emotions if you only shared good news instead of bad Moreover, how would you feel if you discovered that the people closest to you had been hiding the truth ________ you
