六、阅读短文并回答问题。
I’ll always remember that day,when I was so surprised by all the strange looks everyone was giving me. Those thoughts will always stay with me. And I couldn’t believe I would lose the friendship of the person I trusted the most.
Five years back,Sally was the new kid in class. She was the most friendly person I knew. We started as classmates,but after a few months,we were like best friends. So,I never expected her to hurt me in such a big way.
I don’t know what made me tell Sally about my personal life—a thirteen-year-old girl’s life. She made the matter bigger than it was,telling everyone at school. It was like someone had hit me in the back. After she gave away my secrets,everyone at school started laughing at me,looking at me whenever I passed by. After this terrible situation,I changed schools. Sally called me many times,but I didn’t answer. My heart was broken.
I tried hard to heal(康复) from the scars(伤疤) she left on my heart. I started a new life. After five years,my life went back to the way it was,with new friends. But one day,I met Anna at the market. She was my classmate from the 3rd grade. She told me that Sally wasn’t the one who brought my secrets to light. Mary was. Mary was our school’s big mouth who always wanted to stick her nose into other people’s business.
I didn’t know what to do. I wished I could have asked Sally about this. I wished I could go back in time and fix my mistakes. From that,I learned a life lesson that we should trust those we love because one little mistake could really damage(破坏) our lives.
