　　Tom Dyson tried to find out what his new machine could do. One day he fixed the small box to a flowering plant that was growing in a pot. He didn't say anything at all, but he began to think some cruel thoughts.

　　“I'm going to cut off these flowers. They're getting old and ugly. So I'll cut them off…”

　　The needle on the machine climbed quickly from zero to 8, then 10, 12, 15. It stopped at 17. The plant was in trouble! Something was worrying it. Was it fear or sadness? The thought of being cut? The flowers bent their heads. They suddenly looked old and tired, and Tom felt sorry for them.

　　“No, no!” he cried.“I won't cut you. You're my friends. I just want you to grow and be lovely. I'll take you outside, into the sunshine. You'll like that, won't you?”

　　The flowers lifted their heads slowly and seemed to smile at him. The needle returned to zero. Tom put away the machine, picked up the plant and walked outside. It was very nice in the garden that morning.

　　All plants enjoy their owner's love and care and kindness. They know the sound of their voice. They also seem to understand people's thoughts.

One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother’s arms, he cried out bitterly，“A boy, a big boy…called me－a f... freak.” She sighed, knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks．

He grew up，handsome for his misfortune．A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that．He developed a gift for literature and music．

The operation was a brilliant success．His talents blossomed into genius．School and college became a series of successes．Later he married and entered the diplomatic (外交) service．“But I must know!” he urged his father．“Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him.”

“I do not believe you could,” said the father，“but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.” The years kept the secret, but the day did come...one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son．He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材)．Slowly and tenderly，the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick，reddish-brown hair to let out the secret．

     F . Scott Fitzgerald, born on September 24,1896, an American novelist, was once a student
of St.Paul Academy, the Newman School and attended Princeton. University for a short while.
In 1917 he joined the army and was posted in Alabama, where he met his future wife Zelda
Sayre. Then he had to make some money to impress her.
     His life with her was full of great happiness, as he wrote in his diary:" My own happiness in
the past often got such joy that I could share it even with the person dearest to me but had to
walk it away in quiet streets and take down parts of it in my diary."
     This side of paradise, his first novel, was published in 1920. Encouraged by its success,
Fitzgerald began to devote more time to his writing. Then he continued with the novel the
Beautiful and Damned (1922), a collection of short stories Thales of the Jazz Age (1922),
and a play The Vegetable (1923). But his greatest success was the novel The Great Gatsby,
published in 1925, which quick brought him praise from the literary world. Yet it failed to give
him the needed financial security. Then, in 1926, he published another collection of short stories
All the Sad Young Men.
   However, Fitzgerald's problems with his wife Zelda had an effect on his writing. During the
1920s he tried to reorder his life, but failed. By 1930, his wife had her first breakdown and
went to a Swiss clinic. During this period he completed novels Tender Is the Night in 1934
and The love of the last Tycoon in 1940. While his wife was in hospital in the United States,
he got totally addicted to(沉迷于) alcohol. Sheila Graham, his dear friend, helped him fight
his alcoholism.
