问答题The men of history were not perpetually looking into the mirror to make sure of their own size. Absorbed in their work they did it. They did it so well that the wondering world saw them to be great, and labeled them accordingly. To live with a high ideal is a successful life. It is not what one does, but what one tries to do, that makes a man strong. Eternal vigilance, it has been said, is the price of liberty. With equal truth it may be said, Unceasing effort is the price of success. If we do not work with our might, others will; they will outstrip us in the race, and pluck the prize from our grasp. Success grows less and less dependent on luck and chance. Self-distrust is the cause of most of our failures. The great and indispensable help to success is character. Character is crystallized habit, the result of training and conviction. Every character is influenced by heredity, environment and education. But these apart, if every man were not to a great extent the architect of his own character, he would be a fatalist, an irresponsible creature of circumstances.

问答题After dinner, my sleepiness returned, and being shown to a bed, I lay down without undressing, and slept till six in the evening, was called to supper, went to bed again very early, and slept soundly till next morning. Then I made myself as tidy as I could, and went to Andrew Bradford the printer’s. I found in the shop the old man his father, whom I had seen at New York, and who, traveling on horseback, had got to Philadelphia before me. He introduced me to his son. who received me civilly, gave me a breakfast, but told me he did not at present want a hand, being lately supplied with one; but there was another printer in town, lately set up, one Keimer, who, perhaps, might employ me; if not, I should be welcome to lodge at his house, and he would give me a little work to do now and then till fuller business should offer. The old gentleman said he would go with me to the new printer; and when we found him, Neighbor, says Bradford, I have brought to see you a young man of your business; perhaps you may want such a one. He asked me a few questions, put a composing stick in my hand to see how I worked, and then said he would employ me soon, though he had just then nothing for me to do...

问答题那年，一场变故悄悄潜入我家。先是母亲生病住院，体质本就赢弱的父亲，因为焦虑过度，也随即病倒，父母双双住进了医院。 太阳从西边落山，恐惧却从我的心头升起，那年我才十三岁。山村的夜色中，黑黢黢的远山像一幅剪纸阴森地贴在窗户的玻璃上，偌大的屋子里，只剩下我和妹妹。山中的狼群，一声接一声凄厉地哀嗥，常常将我和妹妹从梦中惊醒。 我们住在一所山村学校，叫喊声未必能让远处的人家听见。忽然，我想起了口哨——母亲上体育课时用的口哨。鼓起胸腔．我拼命地让全部的气流吹出尽可能最大的声响。渐渐地，我听见了家门前由远及近嘈杂的脚步声，大声说话的声音。窗外交织着手电筒的光亮。我听见了乡亲们喊我的名字。开了门，一群人扛着锄头站在我家门前．他们都是周围我熟悉的乡亲。善良的黑脸，热切的目光，一群人由衷的关爱，驱散了我内心的恐惧。
