The young couple had another quarrel. They were sitting silently when the landlady came in and asked, “You don’t   31   the house any more?” He kept silent and she   32   shook her head.

The landlady began   33   the house. After looking around, the landlady screamed, “See how you have   34   my house? The walls are full of nails! How could I rent it to others?”

She began looking around her   35  room. Four years ago on the wedding night, he felt deeply   36   to her, saying, “I feel so sorry to you for   37   you live in this small room. In the future I will buy our own big house.”

This tiny room has two nails on the wall next to the door, one for her bag and the other   38  . At that time, she threw all her stuff such as her bag and umbrella on the   39   once she entered the room, staring at the whole   40   and feeling terribly upset. Then he began   41   more nails into the wall. There were three nails on the left, on which   42   his clothes yesterday and four on the right used to   43   their wedding photo frame.

 The landlady started to pull the nails out with a tool. After the nails were   44  , the walls were left with countless holes. Suddenly, she felt heartbroken as if she were   45   nonstop through these holes.

  She   46   to her feet and exclaimed, “Stop removing the nails! We will rent the house   47   we buy our own!” He gazed at her surprised, and then turned round, tears over his cheek.

She   48  realized that marriage was like a wall and that all   49   and “cold wars” were like the nails on the wall.  50  , when they were removed, only a wall with holes would remain. But if all the nails were still in their own places, the wall was still complete and reliable.

When you are little, it’s not hard to believe you can changed the world. I remember my enthusiasm when, at the age of 12, I addressed the people at the Rio Earth Summit. “I am only a child,” I told them. "Yet I know that if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this would be. In school you teach us not to fight with others, to work things out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not be greedy. Then why do you go out and do the things you tell us not to do? You grownups say you love us, but I challenge you, please, to make your actions reflect your words."
I spoke for six minutes and received a standing ovation. Some of the delegates even cried. I thought that maybe I had reached some of them, that my speech might actually spur(刺激) action. Now, a decade from Rio, after I've sat through many more conferences, I'm not sure what has been accomplished. My confidence in the people in power and in the power of an individual's voice to reach them has been deeply shaken.
When I was little, the world was simple. But as a young adult, I'm learning that as we have to make choices--education, career, lifestyle--life gets more and more complicated. We are beginning to feel pressure to produce and be successful. We are learning a shortsighted way of looking at the future, focusing on four-year government terms and quarterly business reports. We are taught that economic growth is progress, but we aren't taught how to pursue a happy, healthy or sustainable way of living. And we are learning that what we wanted for our future when we were 12 was idealistic and naïve(天真).
Today I'm no longer a child, but I'm worried about what kind of environment my children will grow up in. I know change is possible, because I am changing, still figuring out what I think. I am still deciding how to live my life. The challenges are great, but if we accept individual responsibility and make choices, we will rise to the challenges, and we will become part of the positive tide of the change. I hope this goal will be met through our common efforts. Thank you all.
