14、sea 31 , so it was an effort to keep my eyes 32 on my own desk. i think the music was a mozart symphony, 33 by tchaikovsky and a piece by john philip sousa. during one selection, my 34 turned to the paper of the student on my right. i had 35 the instrument to be a violin; my neighbor had written vio

15、la(中提琴). he had to be 36 -almost anyone would know more about music than i did. i changed my 37 . a few days later, looking at the answers to the exam and the final grades posted on the professors office 38 , i understood the meaning of poetic justice. the instrument had been a violin. that one answ

20、then life is no longer difficult. because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.most do not fully see this truth. instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. it seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suf

21、fering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.what makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. these are

22、uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. and since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. problems are the serious test that t

23、ells us success from failure. when we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. it is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. as benjamin franklin said, th

28、d. pain cannot be avoidedbparents, our first teachers, play a highly significant role in our liveshowever, doesnt it seem that many of us come to have conflicts with them when we start high school? we're less likely to listen to them and take their suggestions-we even rebel against them.why? it

29、may be the so-called “generation gap”. a generation gap appears when we begin to feel our parents are ignoring us, dont understand us, and we feel we can no longer share our feelings with them.the key reason is our desire for independence. in senior high school, we start to want to take responsibili

30、ty for our own lives and make our own decisions. but parents resist this. they still want to control us and try to force us to do things they think we should do. debate and discussion often come to nothing. gradually, we talk with them less, and keep our feelings locked up inside.zhang xiaoyun, 16,

31、of ningbo, zhejiang, has talked less and less with her mother since she started senior high school. “she believes studies should be my priority, not my inner world,” zhang said. “each day, she asks me the same old questions like, how was your last exam? or have you made any progress in physics?” to

32、zhang, these questions are annoying and so she always tries to ignore them and answers perfunctorily. “sometimes, when i get upset, i quarrel with her. after, she comes to apologize and comfort me. but i know, she doesnt completely understand me,” zhang said. now, a home that was once full of laught

33、er has fallen into gloom and silence.the generation gap can be harmful. because of the lack of communication, our parents no longer know what we are thinking about. there are quarrels, even over trivial things. when that happens, we may not be able to concentrate on our studies. some of us even beco

37、tion should value the older generationd. academic records are more important than ones inner worldcbobby moresco grew up in new yorks hells kitchen, a tough working-class neighborhood on manhattans west side. but hells kitchen lies right next door to broadway, and the bright lights attracted bobby f

38、rom the time he was a teen. being stage-struck was hardly what a street kid could admit to his partners. fearing their ridicule, he told no one, not even his girlfriend, when he started taking acting lessons at age 17. if you were a kid from the neighborhood, you became a cop, construction worker, l

39、ongshoreman or criminal. not an actor. moresco struggled to make that long walk a few blocks east. he studied acting, turned out for all the cattle calls, and during the decade of the 1970s made a total of $2,000. “i wasnt a good actor, but i had a driving need to do something different with my life

40、,” he says. he moved to hollywood, where he drove a cab and worked as a bartender(酒保). “my father said, stop this craziness and get a job; you have a wife and daughter. but moresco kept working at his chosen craft. then in 1983 his younger brother thomas was murdered in a mob-linked killing. moresco

41、 moved back to his old neighborhood and started writing as a way to explore the pain and the patrimony（继承物）of hells kitchen. half-deserted streets, based on his brothers killing, opened at a small off-broadway theater in 1988. a hollywood producer saw it and asked him to work on a screenplay. his re

42、putation grew, and he got enough assignments to move back to hollywood. by 2003, he was again out of work and out of cash when he got a call from paul haggis, a director who had befriended him. haggis wanted help writing a film about the country after september 11. the two worked on the writing, but

43、 every studio in town turned it down. they kept pitching it. studio executives, however, thought no one wanted to see a severe, honest vision of race and fear and lives in collision(冲突、碰撞) in modern america. moresco believed so strongly in the script that he borrowed money, sold his house. he and ha

44、ggis kept pushing. at last the writers found an independent film producer who would take a chance, but the upfront money was too little, moresco delayed his salary. crash slipped into the theaters in may 2005, and quietly became both a hit and a critical success. it was nominated for six academy awa

45、rds and won three-best picture, best film editing and best writing (original screenplay) by paul haggis and the kid from hells kitchen. at age 54, bobby moresco became an overnight success. “if you have something you want to do in life, dont think about the problems,” he says, “think about other way

51、. he then had some trouble with the bank and was put in prison. he escaped from the prison and ran to australia without delay.hilary did not like australia and australia did not like hilary. what he could do seemed to be one of two things: die or work. the thought of neither of these gave him any pl

53、had chosen a husband who was connected with trade. of course as soon as she became “mrs parks”, her brother considered her dead. later on, mr. parks died and left her a lot of money; but that did not bring her back to life in her brothers opinion.hilary discovered his aunts address. fortunately she

54、remained faithful and honest to him even after she fell ill. so hilarys star shone again. when he was feeling honest, he could talk attractively. he frequently visited his aunts house; and soon he was living comfortably in the building which the profits of trade had provided.one thing was soon clear

55、: his aunt was seriously ill, and nothing could cure her illness. hilary was very worried. fate had found a home for him, and was now going to throw him out of it. there was only one thing that could save him: her will.“will?” she said, “yes, i have made one. that was when i was a girl and had not m

56、uch money. i left all my money to some religious people.”“didnt you make another will when you were married?” hilary asked.his aunt shook her head. “no,” she said in a low voice, “there was no need. when i finally had a lot of money i found i had no relations.”on the next day he went to the public library and examined
