Esperanza is young. Like her friends, she has to grow up fast. She is stuck between being a girl and being a woman. In the poor and dangerous area where she lives, this is difficult for her.

28、A young painter completed a nice picture. To get people’s t【1】 about his skills, he put it at a crossing on a busy street. And below it a board read, “Gentlemen, I have painted this piece. S【2】 I’m new, I might make some mistakes in it. Please put a cross (叉号) wherever you see a mistake.”

When he came back in the evening to c【3】 his picture, he was shocked to see that the whole picture was filled with crosses. And some people e【4】 wrote something on his picture. Sadly, he ran to his master and said, “I failed. And if this is what I have learned, I’m not w【5】 teaching. ”

The master smiled and suggested, “I’ll let you know that you’re a great artist. Now go to paint the same picture again and give it to me. ”

Then they went to the same street the next morning and put the new picture exactly at the same place. Now the master took out another board w【6】 said, “Gentlemen, I painted this piece. There might be some mistakes in it. I have put a box with colors and brushes just below. Please give me a h【7】. If you see a mistake, pick up the brush and correct it.”

Two days later, they came back to the place. The young painter was s【8】 to see that actually there was not a single correction done!

It’s easy to say but difficult to do. If you want to help people i【9】 their behavior, you’d better learn how to help people change their attitudes (态度) or skills. Also, always remember not to judge (评判) y【10】 by someone else’s words and feel bad.

29、Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap.

Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.

Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.

Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care 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!
