| A parable(寓言)tells about a martial artist who kneels (跪) before a master in a ceremony to receive the Black Belt, which is hard to earn. After years of 1 , the student has finally reached a height of achievement in the discipline. "Before gaining the belt, you must 2 one more test," the coach seriously tells the young man. "I'm ready," responds the student, 3 perhaps one more round of boxing. "You must answer the 4 question: what is the true meaning of the Black Belt?" "Why, the end of my journey," says the student. "A well-deserved 5 for my hard work." The master waits for more. 6 , he is not satisfied. The coach finally speaks, "You are not ready for the Black Belt. 7 in one year."

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is 1 between my parents. Every day they are very 2 trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me.
