21、ne of which is Pygmy. Most of the Pygmies in the tribe are not taller than four feet. They weigh only about eighty pounds each.In spite of their small size, they are the best hunters among all the jungle people. Even the great elephant can be caught by them. Since they do not plant any crops, Pygmie

22、s are constantly moving around. They seldom sleep in one camp for more than a few days. In their camps there is not furniture at all except for some weapons such as spears, bows and arrows. There are no cooking pots either. Food is eaten uncooked or smoked over a lire. So when the tribe moves to a n

23、ew camp there is nothing to carry except these weapons and babies too small to walk.Pymies can move on the tree tops almost as skillfully as monkeys. Often they travel great distances through the branches without touching the ground.One of the surprising facts about these small men and women is thei

27、ant no crops Dthey dont sleep in one camp BThis is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend（超越） it. Once we truly know that life is difficult-once we truly understand and accept it-then life is no longer difficult. Because once

28、 it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upo

29、n their families, their class, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as an

30、y kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire t

31、o encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, those things that hurt, instruct. It is for this

35、e is easy D. the writer likes to complain about his problemsCWalking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasnt covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attac

36、ked!Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt I wouldnt have found it amusing. And I was laug

37、hing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!Having stopped laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasnt sure what to do. Afte

38、r all, its just not everyday that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. Thats when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.Sitting close beside her, he opened

39、 and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mates sake , even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious mo

40、ments of life, should I have been careless enough to step on her. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mates safety seemed admirable.

44、d with some challenging decisionslike whether to cut class or try cigarettes.

People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers(同龄人). When t

45、hey try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, its called peer pressure.Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favori

46、te book, and now everyones reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways.

48、ose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this.
