　　Ⅲ. 阅读理解/Reading comprehension（50分）

　　A

　　Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building?s next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.

　　After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself:“I wonder why that woman doesn?t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”

　　One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!

　　Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing(批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.

　　That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?

　　Since then, whenever I wanted to judge(评判) someone，I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.
