  I shook hands with my father in the truck,and for a long time he looked straight ahead and didn’t say a word.But I knew he was going to say a little to me.“I can’t tell anything,” he finally said.“I never went to college,and none of your brothers went to college.I can’t say don’t do this and do that,because everything is different and I don’t know what is going to come up.I can’t help much with money either,but I think things will work out.”

  He gave me a new check?book.“If things get pushing,write a small check.But when you write one,send me a letter and let me know how much.There are some things we can always sell.” In four years all the checks I wrote were less than a thousand dollars.My part?time jobs such as reading to the blind student and sitting with the teachers’ kids filled in the financial gaps.

  “You know what you want to be,and they’ll tell you what to take,” my father went on.“When you get a job,be sure it’s honest,and work hard.” I knew that soon I would be alone in the big town,and I would be missing the cool winds and a life where your thinking was done for you.

  Then my dad reached down beside his seat and brought the old,broken Bible that he had read so often,the one he used when he wanted to look something up in a friendly quarrel with one of the neighbours.I knew he would miss it.I knew,though,that I must take it.

  He didn’t say read this every morning.He just said,“This can help you if you will let it.”

  Did it help? I got through college without being a burden on the family.I have been able to make money since.

任务型阅读

注意:每个空格只填1个单词。

  When young children are learning to ride a bicycle, they require that their parents hold on to the back of the bike so that they gain confidence and won’t fall off.

  However, when children leave to go to college, or get married, parents must accept that their children are riding off into their own future.At this time, parents shouldn’t stand back and with the children gone, they are left with an empty nest.How can parents get through this period of life?

  The first thing you should do is nothing at all.You should actually take some time to rest since your child was born.Just relax and reward yourself for the work you put into your child.

  Taking some time for yourself will allow you to adjust to the change and figure out how you really feel about your child’s departure(离开).You shouldn’t compare how you feel with how other people feel, as everyone’s experience of an empty nest is different.

  Exercise is a great mood lifter.A physical fitness program may have been one of the first sacrifices(牺牲)you made when your child came along; now, with fewer duties, you’ll have time to hit the gym regularly.If you have a friend who also has become an empty nester recently, you may have found a new companion.Not only will you get the chance to share dealing with tips, you’ll also create social opportunities for yourself, which will get you out of that empty house if you need to.

  We all have those things that we say we’ll do or learn “someday”.If you’re an empty nester, the “someday” might just be now.

  If you’re not sure exactly what to do in all your spare time, take your time and think about it.It will, however, probably be easier to figure out your dream when you’re out.Try exploring a nearby museum or attraction you’ve never visited.

  Many parents may fear an empty nest because they worry that their little birds have flown away forever.Try setting up a regular phone date with your child.A once-a-week call may make you feel satisfied while giving your child a reasonable degree of freedom.
