Anyway,it seemed that the girl had told many of her friends,and now they were all at me.They found a great to think of all the other supposed“crimes”I'd committed over the past year. they'd all really liked me before, suddenly they I was a really bad guy.

This was a difficult problem.I to get along well with these people and I liked them all.I didn't want them to me because of something stupid I'd said when I was drunk.It didn't much whether they or I was wrong.All I wanted was things to be to normal again.

So I wrote the popular girl a note saying:“I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings.I didn't mean to”.And that was it.The problem was solved. .the girls who were angry with me now liked me than ever.They felt I'd done something in admitting I was wrong and apologizing.

When other nine-year-old kids were playing games, she was working at a petrol station . When other teens were studying or going out , she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard University . And her amazing story has inspired a movie , “ Homeless to Harvard : The Liz Murray Story” , shown in late April .

Liz Murray , a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination . Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house . Liz was the only member who had a job . Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died , she decided to do something about it.

Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless . At night , she lived on the streets. “ What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding , by understanding that there was a whole other way of being . I had only experienced a small part of the society,” she wrote in her book Breaking Night .

She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on . She used the benefits that come easily to others , such as a safe living environment , to encourage herself that “ next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University . But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “ I love my parents so much . They are drug addicts.

Shirley Temple, who died on February 10, 2014, was that rare example of a Hollywood child star who, when the cameras stopped rolling, carved out a new career.

For four years, she was Hollywood’s biggest box-office star representing the kind of sweet, innocent girl that everyone wanted as their daughter. However, years later, she reappeared as a successful politician.

Shirley Temple was born in Santa Monica, California on 23 April 1928. Encouraged by her mother, she learned to dance while she was just three.

In 1934, Stand Up and Cheer became her first film and the film was a great success. At the age of six she was earning $1,250 a week — more than $21,000 at today’s values.

Across the world, audiences flocked to see her in films such as Little Miss Marker, The Little Colonel and The Littlest Rebel.

In 1935 she was awarded a special Oscar (Academy Award) and her foot and hand prints were added to those of stars such as Jean Harlow and Mary Pickford outside Grauman’s Chinese theatre in Hollywood. The peak of her film career came in 1939 when The Little Princess became a box-office success.

Temple starred in a total of 43 feature films. But she found it difficult to maintain her film career in adulthood and retired from Hollywood in 1950.

She disappeared from the spotlight for nearly 20 years. She returned to the public eye in 1967, as a Republican candidate for Congress. When Nixon became president, he rewarded her with an appointment to the American delegation to the United Nations. Then, in 1974, President Ford appointed her the United States Ambassador(大使) to Ghana. George Bush Snr, appointed her Ambassador to Czechoslovakia.

Shirley Temple drew a line between her childhood stardom and her later political career. “Some people are stuck on this image of the little girl,” she once said. “She is not me. We shouldn’t live in the past; my life is now.” Nevertheless, for many across the world, the name Shirley Temple always called to mind a superstar child.

All parents know that one of their most important tasks is to prepare their children for an independent life,but any parent can tell you that it’s hard to let go of your children.That balance between keeping your children safe and allowing them to learn from their own mistakes can be heartbreaking.Years of experience means that parents often do know best,but on the other hand,the young,being less bound by tradition,are often more creative,more able to find new solutions to old problems.Revolutions are led by the young.

Good teachers make the growth of critical (批判性的) thinking easier in their students,only to find that this can lead to a questioning of the teachers’ basic beliefs.Schools encourage parents to become involved,but are often embarrassed when parents have reservations about some of the educational methods being used.Governments encourage unimportant groups to empower themselves in order to participate fully in the development process.And they are often surprised when the new leaders of these groups turn around and attack the policies of that same government.The rebellions (叛逆的)young and the newly unimportant groups are important in social development.They are not necessarily representatives of those they want to represent or not realistic in their demands,but their voices must be heard.

Good parents know that just forbidding particular behaviors does not prevent their children from finding ways to engage in these forbidden activities.Indeed,sometimes the forbidden fruit is more inviting,just because it is not accepted by authority.Parents must work with their children to educate them on the facts,know as much as possible about he lives of their children,provide a good example,encourage more wholesome activities but also support their children when they don’t follow what is expected of them.But the most important point is that they also need to learn how to let go.
