總之，我認為，人類所遭受的大部分不幸，都是因為他們對事物的價值作出了錯誤的評估，是因為他們為哨子付出了過高的代價。
再見，我親愛的朋友。請相信，我永遠是你真誠的朋友，對你的情感持久不變。
有時候，期望越高，失望越大。擦亮眼睛，對事物的價值作出正確的評估，就不會付出過高的代價。
1. When I was a_________ of 7 years old， my friends， on a holiday， filled my pocket with coppers. I went directly to a_________ where they sold toys for children； and being charmed with the sound of a_________， that I met by the way in the hands of another boy， I voluntarily offered and gave_________ my money for one.
2. This， however， was afterwards of use to me， the_________ continuing on my mind； so that often， when I was tempted to buy some_________ things， I said to myself， “Don’t give too much for the_________.”And I saved my money.
3. As I grew up，_________ into the world， and observed the actions of men， I thought I met with many， very many， who gave too_________ for the whistle.
1. 坐在桌前心裏想著與你快樂的接觸，我整個晚上都在想念你，給你寫回信，並反複閱讀你的來信。
