Milad says he has heard of Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber, but hasnt yet had a chance to listen to them.Before Milad went onstage that night with the band of Afghan kids who had survived a war, I asked him if he had ever experienced true peace. No. not yet, he answered, adding, I hope I will be able to.Later during the performance, as he played one of Carnegie Halls famous grand pianos, the look of pure joy on his face convinced me that he found peace in music. 32.

Suddenly，dark clouds _41_ overhead and rain began to fall，but several hundred yards _42_, the sun shone brilliantly. Riding，_43_，as rapidly as I could，I found it _44_ to get into the clear. The clouds with their rain kept advancing faster than I could race forward.I continued this unequal competition for an exhausting half hour _45_ realizing that I could not win my way to the bright area in front of me. Then it _46_ me that I was wasting my strength in unimportant hurry，while paying no attention to the scenery for the sake of which I was making the trip.The storm could not last forever and the discomfort was not _47_. Indeed，there was much to look at which might _48_ have escaped me. As I looked around with sharpened _49_，I discovered the rain mists(薄雾)which now _50_ the wooded hills and the fresh clearness of the different greens were fascinating(迷人的). My _51_ at the rain was gone and my eagerness to _52_ it disappeared.It had provided me with a new view and helped me realized that the _53_ of beauty and satisfaction may be found close at hand. I understand there is no sense in my _54_ ever to flee from circumstances which cannot be avoided but which I might bravely _55_ and turn to something good.I know that half the battle is _56_ if I can face trouble with courage，_57_ with high spirit，and triumph with humility（谦逊).
