John Carpenter did not like to buy toys that somebody else had made. He liked the fun of making them himself. The thought that they were his own work delighted him. Tom Austin, one of his playmates, thought a toy was worth nothing unless it cost a great deal of money. He never tried to make anything, but bought all his toys.
"Come and look at my horse," said he, one day. "It cost a dollar, and it is such a beauty! Come and see it."
John was soon admiring his friend's horse, and he was examining it carefully, to see how it was made. The same evening he began to make one on his own. He went into the wood shed, and picked out two pieces of wood—one for the head of his horse, the other for the body. It took him two or three days to shape them to his satisfaction.
His father gave him a bit of red leather for a bridle, and a few brass nails, and his mother found a bit of old fur with which he made a mane and tail for his horse. But what about the wheels? This puzzled him. At last he thought he would go to a turner's shop, and see if he could get some round pieces of wood which might suit his purpose.
He found a large number of such pieces among the shavings on the floor, and asked permission to take a few of them. The turner(车工) asked him what he wanted them for, and he told him about his horse. “Oh,” said the man, laughing, “if you wish it, I will make some wheels for your horse. But remember, when it is finished, you must let me see it.”
John promised to do so, and he soon ran home with the wheels in his pocket.

Sally ___ into the chair. The surgeon asked, “Would you like some time with your son before he was transported to the ____?” Sally nodded.

Should anger problems also be recognized as an illness like depression and anxiety? Anger is largely viewed as a secondary emotion — one caused by other emotions. People are thought to be angry because they are sad, anxious or stressed. 1. Today, though, a growing number of mental health experts think that anger is a serious problem that needs its own treatment.
To tell the difference between “normal” anger and “anger problem” is difficult. After all, everyone gets really mad from time to time. Experts point out a few ways.
Disordered anger, as it is sometimes called, tends to be of greater intensity (强度). 2. An example: While most people would get upset if a driver cut them off, someone with disordered anger might try to chase down the car and force it off the road.
And in cases of disordered anger, the person gets angry more frequently and his/her anger lasts longer.3. But people with anger problems often stay angry for days, weeks or even years; their feelings of anger don’t disappear over time.
4. Disordered anger often damages people’s lives. “It interferes (干扰) with people’s relationships and their jobs,” says Raymond Chip Tafrate, a US psychologist. “Even their health is affected.”
Anger clearly increases the risk of certain health problems, as many studies have shown. When people are angry, their hearts beat faster and their blood pressure goes up. 5.
Experts suggest that people with an anger problem take anger-management programs. The programs teach people to control their responses to stressful situations through the use of relaxation techniques. The programs sometimes also include life-skills training to help bring down stress and remove angry feelings.
A. Consequences are also important to consider:
B. Anger takes away people’s joy in life.
C. For most people, angry feelings disappear quickly.
D. The anger buried inside him rises to the surface.
E. In the past, many doctors didn’t accept the idea that anger could be a problem all on its own.
F. Over time, these changes will have bad effects on the body.
G. It takes very little to set off a person with an anger problem, and their responses are very strong.
