题目内容

My childhood and adolescence were a joyous outpouring of energy, an endless pursuit for expression, skill, and experience.        was only a background to the great delight of lessons in music, dance, and dramatics.

Then one night at a high school dance, a remark, not intended for my       , injured my youthful happiness: “That girl, what a pity she is blind.” Blind! A(n)        word that implied everything dark, blank and helpless.       I turned and called out, “Please don’t feel sorry for me, I’m having lots of fun.”       the fun was not to last.

In college years, I began to struggle with the problem of earning a living. Part-time teaching of piano and occasional giving concerts proved only        sources of economic support. In terms of time and effort involved, the financial return was       . Self-doubt and dark moods sparked within me.        to my misery was the repeated experience of knowing my sisters and friends dating excitedly. How        I was to my piano,        I could dissolve my frustration, accompanied by Chopin, Brahms, and Beethoven.

Then one day, I met a girl, an army nurse, whose faith was to change my life. As our acquaintance        into friendship, she sensed my       . She said, “Stop knocking on closed doors. I know your opportunity will come. You’re trying too hard. Why don’t you relax? And have you ever tried       ?” The idea was strange to me. I had always believed that if you wanted        , you had to go and get it for yourself. Yet, my sincerity and hard work had yielded poor returns, so I was       to try anything else. Self-consciously, I performed the daily practice of prayer. I said, “God, show me the        for which You sent me to this world.

In the years to follow, the answers began to arrive, satisfying        my most optimistic expectation. One of the answers was Enchanted Hills, where my        friend and I had the privilege of seeing blind children come alive in God’s out-of-doors.        are the sources of pleasure and comfort I have found in friendship, and most important of all, I        closer to God and, through Him, to immortality (永生).

When the shooting of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was complete, it was much more than a movie wrap-up (结束).

   Rupert Grint, who played Ron Weasley, told The Sunday Times that he’s happy to have the time for romance now filming is over. Emma Watson, who is Hermione Granger in the movies, said she looked forward to “finally being free, being my own person” – a change signaled by her new haircut.

   Daniel Radcliffe, who has been the face of the boy wizard since 2001, said that he “did cry like a little girl” when the last movie finished.

   “It’s like the ending of a relationship,” he told The Vancouver Sun. “There’s a sense of, ‘God, what am I going to do now?’” He said he was eager to see “what life holds for him beyond Hogwarts”.

   Along with the three actors, Harry Potter fans, now in their late teens, came of age with J.K. Rowling’s characters. For them, the last film isn’t just a goodbye to a decade of magic, but the close of their childhoods.

   “We are the Harry Potter generation,” Canadian Andrea Hill, 19, told The Vancouver Sun. “We started in elementary school, reading about a boy our age who was going through the same things we were going through. We grew up, so did he.”

   For Emily Chahal, an 18-year-old student, the series has been an inspiring journey. “That first book was what started my love of literature. It was the inspiration for everything – really teaching me to appreciate my friends, and to face difficulties with a sense of courage,” she said. “I have a sense of sadness. The end of the movies is kind of the end of my childhood, too.”

   Fortunately, to the delight of die-hard fans, there are many things that keep the boy wizard alive. For example, in June this year, a Harry Potter theme park opened in Florida, US.

   Some schools in the US and UK also have Quidditch teams – players ride broomsticks. “We’re not waiting anymore to see what happens to Harry next,” Hill told The Vancouver Sun. She founded a Quidditch club at Carleton University in Canada. “We’re still engaged in that magical world.”
