I was feeling a little blue because my mother had lost her job.
One day, while I was     on the street, I heard piano music and singing rising above the noise of the people. I walked more slowly to    where it was coming from. Then I saw a young lady sitting at a piano. She was singing songs about love,    yourself and keeping on trying. The way she was singing made me a little comfortable. I stood there     , watching her playing on such a crowded New York square. I thought that she must be    enough to perform in front of so many people. She noticed me.

3. One year ago, I worked at a Chinese traditional medicine store. Business was not bad. Every day we mixed (混合）medicinal herbs(中药) for patients, so the store was always full of a strong herbal smell. After I had worked there for a time, a boy of 13 or 14 started coming and sitting on the stairs outside the store for a while every day. It seemed strange to me.
“Do you like the herbal smell?” I asked him one day.
“I grew up with this kind of smell,” he said. He told me that his mother took herbal medicine for years, so he could mix herbs for his mother when he was very young. He mixed the herbs with deep love, hoping his mother would get better as soon as possible.
“Is your mother well now? I asked.
He shook his head. “My mother passed away（去世）three years ago.” Looking up into the sky, he went on: “When I first passed by here and smelled the herbs, I thought of my mother. It is comforting to remember those days when she was alive. So I come here every day to sit for a moment. When I sit around this smell, I feel as if my mother is still alive and is waiting for her medicine in her room.

4. A baby giraffe is born 10 feet high and usually lands on its back. Bringing a giraffe into the world isa tall order. In his book, A View from the Zoo, Gary Richmond describes how a new-born giraffe learns its first lesson.
The mother giraffe lowers her head long enough to take a quick look. Then she puts herself directly over her child. She waits for about a minute, and then she does the most unreasonable thing. She throws her long leg and kicks her baby, so that it’s sent sprawling (四脚朝天).
When it doesn’t get up, what the mother has done is repeated again and again. The struggle (挣扎) to rise is important. As the baby giraffe grows tired, the mother kicks it again. Finally, it stands for the first time. Then the mother giraffe kicks it off again. Why? She wants it to remember how it can get up. In the wild, a baby giraffe must be able to get up as quickly as possible to stay with its group, where there’s safety.
Another writer named Irving Stone understood this. He spent a lifetime studying great people, writing stories about such men as Michelangelo, Vincent van Gogh, Sigmund Freud, and Charles Darwin.
Stone was once asked if he had found something unusual about these great people. He said, “I write about people who sometime in their life have a dream of something. They’re beaten over the head, knocked down and for years they get nowhere. But every time they stand up again. And at the end of their lives they’ve realized some small parts of what they set out (着手) to do.”
