He gave me a new check-book(支票簿). “If you are short of money, a small check. But when you write one, send me a letter and let me 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 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.”
Then my dad reached down beside his seat and brought the old, Bible that he had read so often. 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 being a burden on the family. I have been able to make money since.

I remember my maths teacher Mr Young very well. He stood out because the kids made fun of him. He was missing one of his fingers. In school Maths was my worst subject. I don’t think there was ever a day I went to school that I was not afraid.
One day, I was told that if I got one more E on my report card, my parents would be called to school.
I tried really hard for weeks to learn Maths. I just couldn’t understand how to make different parts of numbers into whole things; my brain just couldn’t do it, no matter how hard I tried.
The day before report cards were to come out, I knew that Mr Young would give me an E, just like he always did.
After class ended, I went to Mr Young and told him what would happen if I got another E. He told me there was nothing he could do; it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.
I looked at the teacher and said, “Mr Young, you know how all the kids make fun of you because you’re missing your finger?”
He looked at me, and said nothing.
“They shouldn’t do that to you because you can’t help not having a finger, Mr Young. Just like I can’t help not being able to learn numbers and matters like that,” I said.
Again, he said nothing as he looked down at his desk, and began grading papers.
The next day, when I got my report card, I looked at my grades: Geography: B- , English: D- , History: C- , Gym: B+ , Art: C, Maths: D- .
That Math grade was the most favorite one I ever received in my whole life. I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.

When I was young, I was always frustrated ( 挫败的 ), and almost everything ended in failure. I hung out everywhere all day. Having seen me like that, my father 小题1: to cheer me up.
One day, he gave me a cup of water and asked me to taste it. I found it 小题2: . My father said he just put one small spoonful of salt in the cup. And then, he led 小题3: to a lake, where he threw a big handful of salt 小题4: the lake, scooped up a spoonful of water and let me taste it again. He asked, "Does it 小题5: taste salty?"' "Not at all," I said. My father said, "Now you may know the root (根源) of your 小题6: :You are just a cup of water, not a lake. Be a lake and you won't小题7:sad any more."
I came to understand my 小题8: motive (目的): I feel unlucky 小题9: my heart is as small as a cup of water without great ideals as a lake.
To be a lake 小题10: great ideals, your feeling of failures and frustrations will be melted ( 融化) like the salt thrown into the lake.
