BWhen Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, "Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out, you'll have something to rely on." Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls.The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her morn," I don't know how to use a computer," she admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as anaward-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says."I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease."But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up--again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me?' about something or other," she insists. "It doesn't do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be."61. Why did Mary feel regretful?A. She didn't achieve her ambition.B. She didn't take care of her mother.C. She didn't complete her high school.D. She didn't follow her mother's advice.

The boy had thought he had gotten by under false pretences， but then felt he couldn't dodge the misfortune.Now that he had already lied， he made up his mind no matter what his mother said， he would disavow to the end.On seeing her son enter in fear， his mother took out a chocolate box and gave one piece of the chocolates to her son.“Baker， this chocolate is a reward for you， for you created a cat with your special imagination.” Then， she put another chocolate in his hand.“This chocolate is a reward for your ability to restore.But the glue you used is for restoring paper materials; to restore a vase needs higher special technique.Tomorrow， let's bring the vase to the artists to see how they make a craftwork intact as it was.”With that， she took the third chocolate， “The last chocolate stands for my apology.I shouldn't have laid a vase in a place where it could so easily fall down， I wish you hadn't been scared， my little sweetheart.”“But， Mom， I...”The boy tried to make something clear， but he awkwardly uttered nothing but some words.“Our talk is over.Good night， Baker!” She gave a soft kiss on his forehead and walked out of the study.The following days were the same as before.The only change was that the boy had never told a lie since then.No scolding.It looks unimaginably queer.In fact， the three chocolates are the alarm in the boy's heart all the tune.Sometimes， no punishment itself is a kind of punishment.How did the boy feel when he found the note on his bed?ADoubtful.BCalm.CUneasy.DEmbarrassed.
