Robert Owen was born in Wales in 1771. At the age of ten he went to work. His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the job of superintendent(监工) at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland.

When he arrived at New Lanark it was a dirty little town with a population of 2,000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers' houses or their children's education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.

Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them. He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all, he fixed his mind on the children's education. In 1816 he opened the first free primary school in Britain.

People came from all over the country to visit Owen's factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns. Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825, but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.

Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all he believed that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical. "If you give people good working conditions," he thought, "they will work well and, the most important thing of all, if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people."

1.For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _____.

A. improving worker's houses

B. providing the children with a good education

C. helping people to save money

D. preventing men from getting drunk

2.From the passage we may infer that Owen was born _____.

A. into a rich family B. into a noble family

C. into a poor family D. into a middle class family

3.Owen's experiment in the United States failed because _____.

A. he lost all his money

B. people who visited it were not impressed

C. he did not buy enough land

D. it was too far away for him to organize it properly

4.We may infer from the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until _____.

A. 1771 B. 1816 C. 1825 D. 1860

How to express your anger

The best way to manage anger is by dealing with it directly—you must learn to express your anger in a healthy and helpful way.

Expressing yourself when you are very angry can be difficult. But it can also be very helpful. 1. They feel better about themselves. And most importantly, they are taking control of their own emotions. They are reacting to their anger in a good way.

2. First, stay calm when you are expressing yourself. It is also important to be clear and direct when you express yourself. You should also show respect to the other person.

It is also important not to blame other people. Blaming other people can lead to arguing and fighting. Instead, people should express their anger by saying what they are feeling. For example, if a person is angry, she should use “I statements”. These are simple sentences that state how a person feels. For example, you should not say “You never help me clean the home”! 3. When people are expressing their anger, they should remember to think about the other people who are involved in the situation. 4. Often, when people look at a situation in this way, they can admit that they are not always being fair. People can admit that their anger is not being helpful. People cannot always control what other people do or what happens around them. But people can control the way they react!

Do not let your anger build up inside of you! As a person once said:“It is not good for me to hold on to anger. 5.

A. You can talk to a doctor.

B. I am the only one that it is really hurting.

C. Words can be extremely damaging to a relationship.

D. Try to look at the situation from the other person’s point of view.

E. When people can express their needs, they feel like they are solving the problem.

F. Instead, you could say “I am angry that you did not offer to help me clean the home”.

G. But there are things people should remember when they express their needs when angry.
