James Baldwin, an author,
once said, "Children have never been very good at listening to their elders,
but they have never failed to imitate them. " Looking back, I have found this
was1. As a child, I was not the best listener,
but I did learn valuable lessons by2my elders.
While in elementary school,
I was caught into3. A classmate had a quarrel with me because
of some4and he even threatened to beat me. I didn't
know how to5him and I was even unwilling to go to school.
Then my father6my trouble and decided to go to school with
me. I wasn't sure what he was planning to do, but I felt safe around him. When at
school, he talked7to me and the boy I had issues with. He explained
that we needed to solve our differences and learn to8 our friendship. He told us a9 in which
he resolved (化解) the differences by an earnest
(真诚的) talk and made friends with another man. Then he10and
we had to solve the problem ourselves. There we stood, face to face without a word.
I broke the11first and a heated discussion followed. Gradually,
both of us realized we had a lot in common apart from the differences. At last,
as my father12, we extended our hands and13our
differences. It was at that moment that a lifetime friendship was formed.
What my father said did
not impress me much but he set a good example of14this
kind of problem. This is a reminder that it is more effective for elders to teach
children by their15.
