Yesterday was a memorable day for me. I went to a photo workshop and asked to edit a photo. The shop owner listened to my requirements and led me into a room. There what I saw made me kind of shocked.
In the room stood-a middle-aged man with twisted(变形的) hands. He was holding a camera in a very professional manner.
I told him my requirements and he replied in a very confident voice, "You just sit comfortably. I will deal with everything." It wasn't at all matching his physical looks. I thought.
I did what he said, and within 5 to 7 minutes, he clicked my photo, retouched(修饰)it carefully, cut it into required pieces and handed it over to me.
I was really amazed to see his perfect behavior-he was so quick and confident. I thanked him and had a nice talk with him. He said he loved his job very much. It allowed him to meet different people and of course make a living. Though he was still unmarried, he was sure he was able to find his best half.
As a disabled person, he could have led his life depending on others. However, he chose to depend on himself and always be confident in himself. He really inspired (激励)me.
How The Little Kite Learned To Fly? By Katherine Pyle "I never can do it," the little kite said, As he looked at the others high over his head. "I know I should fall if I tried to fly." "Try, "said the big kite, "only try! Or I fear you never will learn at all." But the little kite said, "I'm afraid I'll fall." The big kite said, "Ah, well, good-bye; I am off." And he rose towards the sky. Then the little kite's paper stirred(微动). And he shook himself free for flight. First whirling(回旋) and scared, then bravery grown, Up, up he rose through the air alone, While far below he could see the ground, And the boys like small ants moving round. "Oh, how happy I am!" the little kite cried. "And all because I was brave and tried." |
