The True Story of Treasure Island
It was always thought that Treasure Island was the product of Robert Louis Stevenson’s imagination. 36 , recent research has found the true story of this exciting work.
Stevenson, a Scotsman, had lived 37 for many years. In 1881 he returned to Scotland for a 38 . With him were his American wife Fanny and his son 39 .
Each morning Stevenson would take them out for a long 40 over the hills. They had been 41 this for several days before the weather suddenly took a turn for the worse. Kept indoors the heavy rain, Lloyd felt the days 42 . To keep the boy happy, Robert asked the boy to do some 43 .
One morning, the boy came to Robert with a beautiful map of an island. Robert 44 that the boy had drawn a large cross in the middle of 45 . “What’s that?” he asked. “That’s the 46 treasure,” said the boy. Robert suddenly 47 something of an adventure story in the boy’s 48 .While the rain was pouring, Robert sat down by the fire to write a story. He would make the 49 a twelve-year-old boy, just like Lloyd. But who would be the pirate (海盗)？
Robert had a good friend named Henley, who walked around with the 50 of a wooden leg. Robert had always wanted to 51 such a man in a story. 52 Long John Silver, the pirate with a wooden leg, was 53 .
So, thanks to a 54 September in Scotland, a friend with a wooden leg, and the imagination of a twelve-year-old boy, we have one of the greatest 55 stories in the English language. Ks

Children model themselves largely on their parents．They do so mainly through identification．Children identify 36 a parent when they believe they have the qualities and feelings that are 37 of that parent．The things parents do and say---and the 38 they do and say to them--therefore strongly influence a child's 39 ．However, parents must consistently behave like the type of 40 they want their child to become．
A parent's actions 41 affect the self-image that a child forms 42 identification．Children who see mainly positive qualities in their 43 will likely learn to see themselves in a positive way．Children who observe chiefly 44 qualities in their parents will have difficulty 45 positive qualities in themselves．Children may 46 their self-image, however, as they become increasingly 47 by peers groups standards before they reach 13．

Forgiveness
One windy spring day, I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Multicolored 26 of varying shapes and sizes filled the bright skies like beautiful birds darting and 27 . As the strong wind blow against the kites, a 28 kept them in control.
Instead of 29 away with the wind they arose against it to achieve great 30 . They shook and pulled, 31 the control string and the long tail 32 them in tow(受支配), facing upward and against the wind. As the kites 33 and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, "Let me go! Let me go! I want to be 34 !" They soared beautifully even as they fought the restriction(约束) of the string. 35 , one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose. "Free at last" , it seemed to say "Free to fly with the wind".
Yet freedom from 36 simply put it at the 37 of an unsympathetic breeze. it dropped ungracefully(不雅地) to the ground and 38 in a wild mass of weeds and string against a dead bush. "Free at last" -- free to lie powerlessly in the dirt, to be blown 39 along the ground, and to lodge lifelessly against the first obstruction.
How much like kites we sometimes are. The Heaven gives us adversities and restrictions, rules to 40 from which we can grow and gain strength. Control is a 41 counterpart to the winds of opposition. Some of his tug at the rules so hard that we 42 soar to reach the heights we might have obtained. We keep part of the commandment and never rise 43 enough to get our tails off the ground.
Let us each rise to the great heights, 44 that some of the controls that we may be unhappy under are actually the steadying force that helps us 45 and achieve.

I’ve always had strong opinions of how love should be expressed, but others had their own ways of showing care.
What I 36 most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we 37 ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to 38 his family as cold. When we got into the 39 to go home, his father suddenly appeared 40 , he began to wash his son’s windscreen. I could feel he is a caring man through the glass.
I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often 41 me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant 42 or inquiry about my life ,just financial instructions. This manner of his 43 me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his 44 morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I
45 him.
When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt 46 . For example, I always return phone calls 47 and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the 48 : She wasn’t a good friend! My anger 49 as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I 50 and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was 51 at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be 52 . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.
Far too often, I ignored their 53 expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my 54 .Over the years, however, I’ve learned to 55 other persons’ love signs.
