Once upon a time there lived a woman who had a bad temper(脾气). She 1 at everyone around her. For most of her life she believed the anger inside her was 2 else’s fault(过错).
She went to see a wise monk(高僧) to ask for 3 . The monk told her to take a large pot（罐子) from his kitchen, fill it with 4 , and stand outside on the sidewalk in front of his house. “It’s hot outside,” the monk said to her “When a person 5 , you must give him or her a glass of water. Do this until there is no 6 left inside you.” 7 she stood outside with a water pot and served water to walkers every day for the next several weeks.
Every morning she asked 8 if there was any anger inside her. And every morning the answer was, “yes.” So she continued 9 water. Until one afternoon when a man walked up, took the water pot out of her hand and drank the water up, and then 10 it onto the ground as he went on his way.
The woman was very 11 . Unable to control herself, she 12 the pot and threw it at the rude man. The pot broke into pieces over the back of his head and he fell to the ground, bleeding.
As the woman calmed down, she realized the mistake of what she had made and began to cry. She called 911 and 13 what had happened. A moment later an ambulance(救护车) and two police cars arrived and took the man away. Then one of the police officers walked over to the woman, who was 14 crying, and said, “ The city owes(欠) you a big ‘thank you.’ That man has been 15 our wanted list for over a year now. He is an important suspect in many murder cases and robberies.”

On the evening of last Sunday while I was reviewing my lessons in my room, it suddenly began to rain. 1 as usual, I stopped to listen to the rhythm（韵律）of the rain. For many years, whenever it rains, I couldn’t 2 listening to it and thinking of the garden in which I spent my childhood（童年） in my hometown.
When I was a little girl, my family lived in a big house with a big garden in the countryside. The garden was full of flowers and 3 , with some bamboo in front of the wall. Whenever it rained, I 4 to sit in the front of the house, listening to the rhythm of the rain and watching the 5 raindrops（雨点）.
When small drops of rain fall from the heaven in a row（持续不断地）, they 6a curtain made up of pearls（珍珠）; when the raindrops 7 the ground, a lot of small sprays（水花）will splash（溅出）and then disappear slowly.
I have been 8 interested in watching such a scene.Listening to the rhythm of the rain, I feel calm and peaceful in my heart. This feeling of peace makes me think a lot about life. We are the 9 of the earth, and one day we will embrace（拥抱）our earth and stay with her forever. Life is short and we should treasure it.
Listening to the rhythm of the rain, I learn to understand the 10 of life.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. 1 is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your 2 , don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).
Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are 3 . Your parents probably won’t 4 your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself 5 if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to 6 to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, 7 writing a letter.
Try to reach an agreement. Sometimes you and your parents 8 on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to 9 each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They 10 over it. But they finally came to an agreement. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only 11 it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to agree on something. In these 12 , it is especially 13 to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship with your parents strong.
Talk about your 14 . The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you 15 about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
