I was invited to attend a presentation at the Kentucky School. That evening I found gratitude had amazing
to change our attitude…and our life.
The young musician Mr. Patrick was
onto the stage in his wheelchair and began to play the piano. His fingers danced across the keys as he
beautiful music. He then began to sing as he played, and it was wonderful. But what shocked me most was his
smile.
Patrick was born with no eyes and an illness in the legs, which
him lame for life. However, as a child, he was
with artificial eyes and placed in a wheelchair. Before his first
, he discovered the piano. When his mom hit any note on the piano, and within one or two
, he’d get it. By his second birthday, he was playing “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”. His father was
. “We might not play baseball, but we can play music together.”
When Patrick was at the University of Louisville, his father
classes with him. He was also a part of the 214-member marching band! He was a blind, wheelchair-bound trumpet player; and he and his father did it together. His father
the night shift(夜班)in order to accompany his daytime band practice. Patrick says, “My dad’s my
.”
But even more than his
musical talent, it was Patrick’s “attitude of gratitude” that
_ my soul. On stage, between songs, he talked to the audience about his life and about how
_ he was with a great father. When his performance was over, Patrick and his father were on the stage together. The crowd rose to their feet and
for over five minutes.
We all face misfortune in our lives.
,it’s not the hardship but how we
to it that will determine the joy and happiness in our lives. During
times, do we spend too much time feeling
for ourselves, or can we, with gratitude, learn how to dance in the rain?

生活感悟类阅读解题指导:
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。
