It is always good to come to an understanding with your parents．
Gurdjieff used to say,“you are in good communion with your parents, you have missed your life．" If some anger persists between you and your parents, you will never feelease． Wherever you are, you will feel a little guilty． You will never be able to forgiveforget…Parents are not just a social relationship． It is out of them you have come． You are part of them, _branch of their tree． You are still rooted in them． When parents die, something very deep-rooted dies within you． When parents die, for the first time you feel alone, uprooted．while they are alive, do everything that you can so that an understanding can arise and you can communicate with them and they can communicate with you． Then, they leave the world-and they will leave someday，you will not feel guilty; you will not repent; you will know that things have settled．have been happy with you and you have been happy with them．

In the summer of 1848, in Guatemala, a man called Ambrosio Tut went into the jungle, as he did almost every day. Tut was a gum-collector(树胶采集者)，(look) for gum in the jungle. To do this, he had to climb the trees. this particular day, he got to the top of one tree and something caught his eye. He looked out across the trees and saw the tops of some old buildings.
Tut didn't really know what he had seen but he knew it was something(specially). He ran to tell the local governor, and together they (walk)into the jungle. There they found Tikal(蒂卡尔)，the city that the Mayans (玛雅A) had built many hundreds of years before. The two men saw temples and pyramids, squares and houses, and places kings had lived when the Mayan people ruled the region.
For a long time before that day, local people had known that somewhere in the jungle there was an old Mayan city, no one had seen it for centuries. 200 and 900 AD, the city of Tikal had been the center of Mayan civilization in the region, but then the Mayans left ─nobody knows why! After 1000 AD, the jungle began to cover it and people forgot that it was there.
Seven years before Tut looked out for the trees, two British explorers had gone to Guatemala and had written a report about Mayan treasures in the jungle, but they didn't mention Tikal. Even (early)than this, local Indians had told European travelers about a great city(hide) in the trees, but no one would listen to them. Now the lost city had been found again, and archaeologists (考古学家) went there immediately to see it.

I seldom thought I had a passion. I would sit before the TV all day, thinking nothing but the next shadow. It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.
One day I went with Mum to drop my sister off at the gym. Then,Mum stopped at a red light, someone on the roadside caught my eyes. It was a man(dress) in rags, homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I(see) many like him before.
But he man wasn’t sitting down with a sad(express). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing(merry) to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thinghe had.
“Mum, why does that man have a radio even though he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He bought,” she replied.
“But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’tonly important things. We need happiness, too.”
“I see.” The man must care too much about music, so he bought a radio instead of food and clothes. I realized that happiness is the key to life.it, there’s nothing to look forward to. A passion gives a person the happiness they need to keep going!
