Words every girl has said when they are faced with the delicious cheesecake. Of course, many of us know we may eat the whole thing in the end. It isn39。t just girls. Most of us find it hard to say no to something attractive. However, scientists now say that willpower is very important to success and a happy life. Scientists in different countries have been studying the effects of willpower on people39。s lives for a long time. The results are similar, according to an article on February 7 in the Guardian, a famous British newspaper. In one experiment, scientists told young children that they could either have a marshmallow （圓形軟糖） now, or two marshmallows in 15 minutes. Waiting obviously needed more willpower. Scientists then continued studying the children as they grew up. They wanted to see if some children always had stronger willpower. They also wanted to see how having stronger willpower affected their lives. Years later, scientists found that the children who had waited for two marshmallows were all healthier, happier and richer adults. Oppositely, the children who had shown weaker willpower at that young age were more likely to be in lowpaid jobs, to be overweight, to have social problems. But there is hope, Roy F Baumeister, an American social psychology（心理學(xué)） professor （教授） told the Guardian. Baumeister says we can train our willpower just like we train our muscles（肌肉）. Even a little practice can strengthen（加強(qiáng)） our overall selfcontrol if we do it regularly. You could start by making yourself stand up straight, speaking in plete sentences, or using a puter mouse with the other hand. Scientists have found that people who manage to change little habits often perform much better in laboratory willpower tests. Like muscles, willpower can get tired. Don39。t try to do too many things at the same time, or when you don39。t have enough energy, for example when you are ill. If you already feel tired, you can try to recharge（恢復(fù)） your willpower with a good night39。s sleep and by eating well.（1）The example of a girl eating cheesecake is used to A.prove that girls have weak willpowerB.introduce the topic of willpower to the readersC.show that cheesecake is especially attractive to girlsD.show the connection between willpower and success（2）What can we infer from the experiment?

I took the shoes to the shoemaker to get them repaired. He looked at them and said to me, If you trust me, I will add more scratches on both of the shoes. I was surprised and asked why. He explained, As if the openings were made on purpose for a special style. I didn39。t fully understand him, but I decided to leave the shoes there. Two days later I dropped by from work to fetch the shoes. At the first sight I found there were indeed five or six more scratches on each shoe, but all the openings were patched（打補(bǔ)?。゜y red soft leather（皮革）. They looked special. I couldn39。t help making pliments（贊揚(yáng)） on the shoemaker39。s skills. Another time, there was a large opening on the back of my wife39。s sister39。s white coat. My wife took it over, checked carefully, and then said, Let me take it home and mend it. Three days later, seeing the coat again, I was shocked: the big opening was taken place by a beautiful flower and it took on a wonderful look. I gave my praise, It39。s just as beautiful as a piece of art! Perfection is impossible to achieve in everything, and so is human39。s life, which will appear in the form of injury, disability or disease. Since you can39。t change a wound（傷口）, you should not expect people39。s pity by exposingthe wound, which shows nothing meaningful. All you can do and have to do is to make up the wound by patches and try your best to grow the most beautiful flower on the wound, and that is the meaning of life.（1）How did the writer feel about the shoemaker39。s work?
