Our thoughts, words, and actions often cause harm to others and to us. Without reconciliation
(和解), we cannot deepen our understanding and only cause more suffering. "Beginning Anew" is
a(n)   36  of reconciliation. It involves three steps ---- sharing appreciation, expressing  37 , and expressing hurt and difficulties.
In the first step, we share appreciation. We acknowledge the  38  qualities of the other person.

In my dad’s last telephone call to me, he __36__ that line several times in half an hour. I wasn’t listening at the right level.

If I had been really listening and thinking, I would have offered comfort during his final hours. After all, a loved one should hold his hand and__44__him as he makes the transition(过渡) from reality to another world. Dad __45__ his departure(离开) repeatedly, but I__46__it. I felt sadness, pain and regret. Why had I not been there for him? He’d always been there for me.

Recalling these__50__moments with dad brings tears to my eyes.
Now my heart is still in__51__because dad was there for me and I wasn’t there for him. My hearty__52__is: always, always seize the moment to__53__ your love with your loved ones, and keep them__54__when they leave the world. Experiencing the__55__of death with one you love will make you understand the meaning of life better.

“Down-to-earth” means someone or something that is honest, practical and easy to deal with. It is   36  to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to and   37  other people as equals. A down-to-earth person is just the   38  of someone who acts important and proud.
Down-to-earth persons   39  be important members of society, of course.   40  they do not let their importance “go to their heads”. They do not   41  themselves to be better persons than others of less importance. Someone who is filled with his own importance and pride, often without cause, is   42  to have “his nose in the air”. There is   43  way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.
Americans   44  another expression that means almost the same as “down-to-earth”. The expression is “both-feet-on-the-ground”. Someone with both-feet-on-the-ground is a person with a good   45  of reality. He   46  what is called “common sense”. He may have   47 , but he does not allow them to   48  his knowledge of what is real.
The opposite kind of   49  is one who has his “head-in-the-clouds”. A man with his-head-in-the-clouds is a dreamer whose   50  is not in the real world.
  51 , such a dreamer can be brought back to earth.   52  words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth.
Usually, the person who is down-to-earth is very   53  to have both feet on-the –ground.  54  we have both our feet on-the –ground, when we are down-to-earth, we act   55  and openly towards others. Our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.

When Jane Austen (1775--1817) wrote her novels in England, she was writing about a   21 that most of us would not recognize.
But today Austen’s books are in great   22  than ever. In the last ten years, five or six novels have been   23  into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be bestsellers. So why is Austen still   24 ?
Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University argued that her novels still  25  people because they  26 the same issues today as they were when she wrote them.
Her novels are about women   27 to find a perfect husband, but also  28 issues surrounding marriages, friendships and the family. “The plots are fairly timeless about human interaction   29 are familiar to us,” Jenkyns says.
The most famous book Austen wrote is Pride and Prejudice, a   30  story between Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy. At first the two   31 do not get on. They   32  fall in love, but still have to   33  opposition to their relationship from their families.
All of Austen’s books are   34  to read, making them popular with children and adults,
  35 they work on different levels so people can take  36 they need from them, author Kate Henry says.
“You can choose to see the politics and feminism(男女平等思想) in them,  37 you don’t want to take on those issues you can turn a blind eye to it,” she says.
  38 is often hailed(赞扬) as the greatest romance writer in the English language, so it is surprising she remained  39 . “Maybe she was too much of a romantic, waiting for a    40
man,” Henry says.

College was the best of times and the worst of times for me. I met the best friends of my life, had    21   experiences, but I also folded under more   22   than I ever had to deal with before.     23   bad grades, I ended up being asked to take a semester off at the end of the first semester of my senior year.
So I went back home to   24  with my father and stepmother. To their credit, they understood me and were very cool about my coming back. I felt their    25   from the moment I walked in the door. They   26   to let me feel like a failure.
One morning not long after I had come home, my father woke me up saying that my stepmother   27  on the kitchen floor. I went downstairs trying to perform CPR on her   28   it was too late. She was already dead of a massive heart attack.
I’ll never   29  the look on my father’s face when he was given the official news of her passing. I knew at that moment that I had to be   30  because he needed someone to lean on. It was as if our roles had    31  and I was being the protective parent while he took the time to   32   .
I guess the lesson I took from it is that even in our   33   moments we can still be of help to someone who is   34   something much harder. It’s so easy to close ourselves off to the things going on around us, and   35  feel that we are the only ones   36  . Helping someone else could actually help us   37  ourselves.
Needlessly to say I went back to college the next semester, and I studied harder and got my    38    . My father and I developed a bond that was    39   closer than it already was, and I have a much better ability to keep   40  times in perspective.(适当地)
