C I used to believe I knew how to communicate with people around me, but later I found that there were much more things I needed to learn. I realized that when I was taking a pottery (陶艺) class. At class, the teacher asked us to turn the clay (黏土) into a flower, and I happily started to do. But Adam was still playing with his clay. “Hey, we need to make a flower,” I said. He looked at me and then kept quiet. I worried he wouldn’t have enough time to finish his work, so I made a flower for him. “Here,” I said. “you can use this one.” “Do you always tell everyone what to do?” he shouted. My face turned red. The next class, I noticed he was making a tiger. He saw me looking at him and he glared at me and said, “Are you planning to tell me how to do this, too?” I don’t know what to say. I was trying to be friendly, not impolite (不礼貌的), but Adam felt different. I was sad and almost cried at that time. Later, I knew what Adam experienced. I felt sorry for what I had done to him. We don’t always know what’s going on in others’ lives. So give others enough space when getting along with them. 11. What did the writer realize according to Paragraph l? A.
