Haw wondered why he had always thought that a change would lead to something worse.Now he realized that change could lead to something better.

“Why didn't I see this before?”he asked himself.

Then he raced through the Maze with greater strength and agility.Before long,he found a Cheese Station and became excited as he noticed little pieces of New Cheese near the entrance.

They were types of Cheeses he had never seen before,but they looked great.He tried them and found that they were delicious.He ate most of the New Cheese bits that were available and put a few in his pocket to have later and perhaps share with Hem.He began to regain his strength.

He entered the Cheese Station with great excitement.But,to his disappointment,he found it was empty.Someone had already been there and had left only the few bits of New Cheese.

He realized that if he had moved sooner,he would very likely have found a good deal of New Cheese here.

Haw decided to go back and see if Hem was ready to join him.

As he retraced his steps,he stopped and wrote on the wall:

The quicker you let go of old cheese,the sooner you find new cheese.

After a while,Haw made his way back to Cheese Station C and found Hem.He offered Hem bits of New Cheese,but was turned down.

Hem appreciated his friend's gesture but said,”I don't think I would like New Cheese.It's not what I'm used to.I want my own Cheese back and I'm not going to change until I get what I want.”

Haw just shook his head in disappointment and reluctantly went back out on his own.As he returned to the farthest point he had reached in the Maze,he missed his friend,but realized he liked what he was discovering.Even before he found what he hoped would be a great supply of New Cheese,if ever,he knew that what made him happy wasn't just having Cheese.

He was happy when he wasn't being run by his fear.He liked what he was doing now.

Knowing this,Haw didn't feel as weak as he did when he stayed in Cheese Station C with no Cheese.Just realizing he was not letting his fear stop him,and knowing that he had taken a new direction,nourished him and gave him strength.

Now he felt that it was just a question of time before he found what he needed.In fact,he sensed he had already found what he was looking for.

He smiled as he realized:

It Is Safer To Search In The Maze Than Remain In A Cheseless Station

Haw realized again,as he had once before,that what you are afraid of is never as bad as what you imagine.The fear you let build up in your mind is worse than the situation that actually exists.

He'd been so afraid of never finding New Cheese that he hadn't even wanted to start looking. But since starting his journey,he had found enough Cheese in the corridors to keep him going. Now he looked forward to finding more.Just looking ahead was becoming exciting

His old thinking had been clouded by his worries and fears.

But that had changed in the days since he had left Cheese Station C.

Now he realized it was natural for change to continually occur,whether you expect it or not change could surprise you only if you didn't expect it and weren't looking for it.

When he realized he had changed his beliefs,he paused to write on the wall:

Old Beliefs Do Not Lead You To The New Cheese

Haw hadn't found any Cheese yet,but,as he ran through the Maze,he thought about what he had already learned.

Haw now realized that his new beliefs were encouraging him to behave in a new way.He was behaving differently from the way he had when he had kept returning to the same cheeseless station.

He now knew that when you change what you believe,you change what you do.

You can believe that a change will harm you and resist it.Or you can believe that finding New Cheese will help you,and embrace the change.

It all depends on what you choose to believe.

He wrote on the wall:

When You See That You Can Find New Cheese,You Change Course

The first time I saw Carlos I would never have believed he was going to change my life．I had my arms full of books and I was rushing into the classroom when 1 ran into something solid. It was Carlos.

"My... you're tall," he said. The whole class burst out laughing .

“Take that seat,” Mr. McCarthy told the cocky(骄傲自大的) newcomer Carlos，pointing to the only empty one , in the back of the room.

Carlos laughed widely. "But I need a couple of dictionaries."

The bell rang for classes. As I stood up to go, I saw Carlos coming toward me. "I'm sorry I embarrassed you," he said . I looked straight ahead over the top of his black hair. "That's all right."

"I ought to know better." He was still blocking my way. "What's your name?" "Karen Forbes." He held out his hand. Unwillingly, I shook hands with him. He looked up at me seriously with his brown eyes. " I am Carlos . I don't see why you're so touchy."

It was the school elections that made me think of Carlos again. Carlos was voted vice-president．“How come ?”I kept asking myself, "How come this shrimp（虾）who’s only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular?"

So on that morning，I stopped Carlos and said，“It doesn't seem to bother you — being short.” He looked up at me, "Of course I mind being short．But there isn’t anything I can do about it. When I realized I was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin, I just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself." "You seem to get along great,” I admitted, "But what about me? The trouble with you is you’re afraid to be yourself. You’re smart. And you could be pretty. In fact, you might be more than pretty.” I felt myself turning red…

1.It is a story about a short boy who ________.

2.From the text, we can see Carlos is ________.

3.The underlined word "touchy" in paragraph 8 probably means ________.

4.According to the text, which is the most likely ending?
