Life is often compared to a diary. As Barrie said: We begin by resolving to write one thing and end by writing something very different. However, to be more exact, life is much more like a growing plant. Whether we like it or not, it is the stem (叶柄) that holds the plant; 71 .
Some people say, “Let by-gones be by-gones.” This is especially the case for misanthropes (厌恶与人交往的人) who hate to recall their past events. 72 ; they hate everything—perhaps themselves, too. In times of loneliness, instead of enriching their minds by enjoying their happy memories, they blame this world for being cold. Yet we may have something very funny in the past. Why not warm up your coldness by recalling them?
Some time ago, I went boating with my two friends. Having rented a sampan, we set out. The weather was dull and unfavorable, and the wind, singing in our ears, set off the waves which uplifted the boat and let it go. 73 . Without a moment’s hesitation I laid down the oars to catch it, but I failed. I tried again and it ran away. When the third time my two friends came to my help, the boat was out of balance with us all on one side. The boat turned over. The jellyfish which we were so anxious to catch a few minutes ago now floated towards us. But this time we tried our best to get away from it and landed on the bottom of the boat. 74 . Though drunk with water I felt very happy as that was the first adventure in my life, and I really enjoyed it.
I always like to sit quietly in one corner of my room, recalling past events, and laughing secretly to myself. Happy memories can delight you when you are moody and can encourage you when you are in difficulties. 75 .
A.They hate their fellow men |
B.Encouraging one’s minds sometimes brings more trouble |
C.Loneliness and coldness offers some people bad memories of the past |
D.besides, it is our past |
F. Suddenly I saw a jellyfish floating on the surface
G. Fortunately, my two friends, experts in boating, managed to turn it back

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class walking home. His name was Kyle. He was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, “Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd(书呆子).” So I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw some kids running at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. I jogged over to him, and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, I handed him his glasses. He said, “Thanks!” There Was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived, It turned out he lived near me, so I asked him why! had never seen him before. He said he had gone to a private school before coming to this school. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before. We talked all the way home. He turned a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He said yes. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends.
Graduation day arrived. Kyle was valedictorian of our class, so he had to prepare a speech for graduation. In his speech he said. “Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. I am going to tell you a story.” I stared at my friend in disbelief as he told the story of the first day We met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn"t have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He gave me a little smile. “Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable.” I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment.

My name is A. J. Hoge. I am the creator of the Effortless English Teaching System and I am the Founder and Director of The Effortless English Club——one of the most popular English learning systems in the world. My audio lessons are best-sellers in over 25 countries and my radio podcast (播客)has over one million listeners worldwide. I am also the publisher of the Effortless English Online Newsletter, which has over half a million subscribers(用户) (and growing every day). I am a leading expert on topics related to English speaking success and teaching mastery.
I created the Effortless English Teaching System after many years of teaching English in universities. My former students include business professionals, scientists, teachers, professors, graduate students, and many other successful adult English learners. These students were just like you. They were frustrated English learners who could not speak well. Using the Effortless English system, they learned to speak English easily and automatically.
Each of these students made incredible improvements in a very short time. You also will improve quickly when you use the entire Effortless English System. The Effortless English System is designed for you——the independent adult learner. Effortless English focuses exclusively on speaking and listening skills. The system is designed to improve your speaking power as quickly as possible——using proven and tested methods.
When you follow the entire system every day for 6 months, your speaking becomes much faster and easier. Your spoken grammar improves powerfully——yet you will never study grammar rules in this system. Your pronunciation improves powerfully——yet you will not focus on pronunciation.
