1. The end of the exam procedure, which is in some cases worse than revision period, is awaiting the results. While waiting you can’t do much about your own school work. You feel that it is very hard to resist the temptation to light a fire with all your notebooks and files instead of logs, but at the same time you feel that you had better keep all your notes safe in case you discover you have failed and need to retake all your subject. The worst day of all is the one when you know that the postman is to deliver the letter which will inform you whether the academic world considers you a failure or a success, whether you can get the job you want, or go to the university you wish to attend. That envelope is to contain the key to your future and, perhaps most important of all, to inform you whether you need to suffer again the horrors of exams.
2. Small as it is , the pen has changed the course of history, recorded events, carried news, and done more work for mankind than all other tools or weapons. Progress without it would it would have been almost impossible. The invention of the wheel and screw, the introduction of steam power, the use of electricity, all these have changed the lives of millions. But the pen has done more. It has prepared the way for all progress. Whatever plans have been draw up have come from the pen. Behind all we do today is the pen. We cannot sign a check or write a letter or complete a business exchange without our pen. The student would fail to pass his examination without it.
3. When I was 14, I got a job at the local hospital, where I was told that my duties would include mopping floors. Even though my job did not pay much, I was thrilled to have any work to do at all. I didn’t see it as a handicap(障碍) but as a challenge, because it was my first job. I learned to be punctual and to meet certain standards. In return, I was treated with respect by the hospital staff and the patients. Each morning I imagined that the plates coated with oatmeal(燕麦粥) would only make patients more sick, if I were not there to wash them clean. Once breakfast was over, I worked hard to mop the floors of all the patient wards(病房), and clean the toilets. Though I was very tired, I wanted the job to be done well. People would beam and say, “That young guy surely does a job.” That gave me a great sense of pride.
4. Young people often make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, in music, and in entertainment. But they do not mean to cause any trouble; it is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted. That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own. And if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy. A young man once said, “Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to agree to what you do. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like. This is natural enough, after being a child for so many years when you were completely under your parents’ control.” To these youngsters, my advice is this: “If you plan to control your own life, you’d better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility , they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.” 翻译
