Whatever misfortune you face, just hold up your head and face it with a smile! I got to know this from a musical soul.
The other day I was feeling quite
, having just been laid off from my job. With so many
to pay, I was wondering what was going to happen to my family.
I got off the bus when I heard piano music and singing rising above the noise of the
. I walked a bit slower, trying to find out where it was coming from. Through the
I saw a young lady sitting at a piano with a box next to her.
She was singing songs about love and her sweet voice
me a bit. Then I stood there watching her playing, thinking that it must take
to perform on her own in front of hundreds of people she didn’t know.
She might have felt my
for she occasionally looked in my direction.
By now I was telling myself that I could at least tell her how good she sounded. I walked
and put some money in her box and she expressed her thanks with a smile on her face.
I asked her
, “Why are you playing the piano in the middle of this crowded place?”
She explained to me that she sees so many
people in the world that she is trying to relieve the pain by
motivational(激励的)music.
Instead of continuing my way home, I said to her, “I have been going through a
time lately, but you’ve made me
again.”
“I’m happy that I could be
to you,” she replied. “Why are you so sad?”
I told her my story and said, “I’m not so
about what to do….”
“You see, here’s the
,” she responded. “When you were walking, your head was down.” She looked me in the eyes and went on, “Don’t look defeated, because
comes in different ways and if your head is down you might never see it. You should
more … lift your head up.”
I was really
by what she said! I did hold my head up and soon got through the difficult time.
So
in trouble, just face it bravely and you are sure to overcome your difficulty sooner or later.

人生感悟类阅读的概念:

一、文章特点:
生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪,使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文,如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事,有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”,点出全文的中心思想,就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂,耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似,一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句(论点),其它句子围绕主题展开论述(论据),论证方法多种多样,或举例,或引用名言,或正反对照等。
二、解题技巧:
针对生活感悟类文章的特点,做这类文章的完形填空时,要特别注意以下几点: 1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文,找出when,where,who,what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔,充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。 2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句,有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。 3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域,而是谈一些小事和简单的道理,所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣,读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度,从而提高做题的准确度。因此,考生在平时要做一个有心人,即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事,思考人生的一些基本道理,多阅读一些短小精悍的美文,多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心,做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
