Solving it quickly is a terrific conversation starter. I usually ask people to try it first. They just turn the cube over in their hands, not even knowing where to begin. Thats exactly what it was like for me to learn how to read. Letters and words were out of order. Nothing made sense because I am dyslexic（诵读困难症的）.The Rubiks Cube has made me believe that sometimes you have to take a few steps back in order to move forward. This was a reflection of my own life when I had to leave public school after the fourth grade when I was a 10-year-old boy. Its embarrassing to admit, but I still couldnt always spell my full name correctly. As a fifth-grader at a new school specializing in whats called “language-processing disorder”, I had to start over. I then spent the next four years learning how to learn and find strategies that allowed me to return to my districts high school with the ability to communicate my ideas and express my intelligence. Now, I can easily solve the 5×5×5. I discover that just before it is solved, a problem can look like a mess, and then suddenly you can find the solution. I believe that sometimes you have to look deeper and find answers in unexpected places. The Rubiks cube taught me that to accomplish something big, it helps to break it down into pieces. I learned that its important to spend a lot of time thinking, to try to find connections and patterns. I believe that there are surprises around the corner.Like life itself, the Rubiks cube can be frustrating puzzle. So every day I carry a Rubiks cube in my backpack as a reminder that I can achieve my goals, no matter what obstacles I face. 56. From the first paragraph we know that _. A. most people like to solve Rubiks cubes.B. it is not easy to solve a Rubiks cube. C. the writer is very embarrassed before strangers. D. many people know the approaches to solving the Rubiks Cube. 57. Why did the author leave the public school?A. His interest changed to learning how to communicate with other people.B. He was so crazy about the Rubiks Cube that he wanted to solve it first.C. He had to take steps back in order to relearn the basic things at another school. D. He was afraid to go to the public school because he could not spell his name.58. What can be inferred from this passage? A. Using a Rubiks cube to communicate with strangers is abnormal.B. When the writer could express his intelligence, he was at the age of 10.C. To solve a big problem we can divide it into small parts. D. We should put them aside if we come across difficulties.59. The author carries a Rubiks Cube in his backpack to _.A. help treat his dyslexic.B. compete with others.C. take it apart and rebuild it.
