Mrs. Black was very sad and lived in her house alone. Two years ago her daughter had a baby. The young woman was busy all the time and had no time to look after her son James. She asked her mother to live with them. The old woman had to sell her house and moved there. She was strong and could do all the housework. And the family liked her. Last autumn Mrs. Black went to do some shopping. A car hit her and her leg was hurt. She had to be in hospital for three months. She couldn’t do anything after she came back. At first her daughter was kind to her, but soon she began to be tired of(讨厌) her. The old woman wanted to leave, but she had no money to buy a house and nobody could take care of her. She didn’t know what to do. One morning Mrs. Black broke a plate. It made her daughter angry. She told James to buy a wooden(木制的) plate for his grandma. That afternoon James came back with two wooden plates. She was surprised and asked, “Why did you buy two plates, son?” “One is for grandma,” answered the boy, “the other is for you! You will also have to use a wooden plate when you’re old, I think.” The woman heard this and was sad. She cried for long. Now she is kind to her mother as she was before. ( )26.

But two years ago, an English speaking competition held in my school changed me a lot. I stood on the stage(讲台) for the first time. I was so nervous that my brain(大脑) suddenly became empty. Not long after I began my speech, the hall turned noisy. It seemed that they were laughing at me. I knew I failed. From then on, I became quiet and always stayed alone. I didn’t want to express my ideas in public, even in class. Every time I wanted to say something, I thought people would laugh at me. My friends couldn’t understand me, and they left me, one by one. One day, my science teacher asked us why trees in forests were much taller than those in the wild. “Ha, what a silly question!” I thought. “There’s not enough space in the woods for trees to expand their branches. Of course they have to grow taller than others. The trees in the wild needn’t do that since there’s enough space. ” I said in a low voice. To my surprise, the teacher said, “Yes, you’re right. It is a competition. ” My face turned red right now. I hadn’t spoken for a long time, especially in public. Then the teacher explained how trees in forests had to grow taller to receive more sunlight. If not, they would die. This also happened in our society. What’s more, the tree that doesn’t live in a crowd is just like a person who has no friends in life. I raised my head slowly and found the teacher was looking at me. His eyes were as warm as sunshine. I realized that I must stand up and face the truth. 根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。 ( )31.
