When I was five years old, she invited some friends and relatives to her Bronx apartment for a party. Among the guests was a rich neighborhood who was doing well in business. His wife was proud of their social status and let everyone at the party know it. They had a little girl about my age who was spoiled(娇生惯养) and very much used to getting her own way.At one point during the party, I made my way to the bathroom and closed the door behind me. A minute or two later, the little girl opened the bathroom door and walked in. . “Dont you know that little girls arent supposed to come into the bathroom when a little boy is using it!?“ I shouted. The surprise of my being there, along with the anger I had poured on her, shocked the little girl. Then she started to cry. She quickly closed the door, ran to the kitchen, and tearfully complained to her parents and my grandmother.Grandmother was waiting for me when I left the bathroom. I received the longest, sharpest scolding of my young life. After her scolding was over and I had been dismissed , the party continued.Twenty minutes later, all that changed. Grandmother walked by the bathroom and noticed a water streaming out from under the door. She pushed open the bathroom door and saw that the tap was turned on at full blast. Everyone knew who did it. The guests quickly formed a protective wall around me, but Grandmother was so angry that she almost got to me anyway. My grandfather took me by the hand and seated me on his lap in a chair near the window. He was a kind and gentle man, full of wisdom and patience. Rarely did he raise his voice to anyone, and never did he argue with his wife . He looked at me with much curiosity, not at all angry or upset. “Tell me,“ he asked, “why did you do it?“ “Well, she yelled at me for nothing,“ I said earnestly. “Now shes got something to yell about.“ Grandfather didnt speak right away. He just sat there, looking at me and smiling. “Eric,“ he said at last, “you are my revenge(报复).“ 1.The little girl cried during the party because_.

We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed（有缺陷）? If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. The person who doesnt like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy. Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time. Dont take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else. You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who dont mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it comes in 3is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior（自卑） because you dont have much money and you dont drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you dont have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person. The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe its the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any. 36.
