It would do me good to go back to the dear old home again and see Allen, Esther, Green, and Lee. Give my love to them all, and tell them I hope we will meet in the better world, if not in this.I want to know particularly what the good chance is you propose to give me. I am doing tolerably well here in Ohio. I get twenty-five dollars a month, with food and clothing; have a comfortable home for Mandy, the folks call her Mrs Anderson; and the childrenMilly, Jane, and Grundygo to school and are learning well. The teacher says Grundy has a head for a preacher. We are kindly treated.Now, if you will write and say what wages you will give me, I will be better able to decide whether it would be to my advantage to move back again. We have concluded to test your sincerity by asking you to send us our wages for the time we served you. This will make us forget and forgive old scores and rely on your justice and friendship in the future. I served you faithfully for thirty-two years, and Mandy twenty years. At twenty-five dollars a month for me, and two dollars a week for Mandy, our earnings would amount to eleven thousand six hundred and eighty dollars. Add to this the interest for the time our wages have been kept back, and deduct(扣除)what you paid for our clothing, and three doctors visits to me, and pulling a tooth for Mandy. If you fail to pay us for faithful labors in the past, we can have little faith in your promises in the future.In answering this letter, please state if there would be any safety for my Milly and Jane, who are now growing up, and both good-looking girls. I would rather stay here and starveand die, if it should come to thatthan have my girls brought to shame by the violence and wickedness of their young Masters. You will also please state if there has been any schools opened for the colored children in your neighborhood. The great desire of my life now is to give my children an education and have them form virtuous habits.Say howdy to George Carter, and thank him for taking the pistol from you when you were shooting at me.【文章大意】文章中作者拒绝以前奴隶主让他回去为其效命的要求有礼有节, 可见其明智。1.

You cant always be in control of everything.B. You cant accomplish things without support.C. Good things usually dont come quickly.D. Not everyone will support you along the way.E. Sometimes bad things happen to good people.F. Death is part of life.In the game of life, if it often seems like youre on the losing end of things, youre not alone. Life can be one giant confusing problem filled with ups and downs. When you feel like youre experiencing more downs than ups, sometimes it helps to get a little tough love once in a while. Thats why we put together this list of 5 hard truths that will help you grow.1. _Great accomplishments in our lives normally dont come easily. And if you think about it, would you have it any other way? Theres a basic psychological principle called instant satisfaction, which means that we expect to get rewards instantly. But sometimes you need to fight the impulses your brain throws at you and trust that the journey youre on is the right one.2. _In life, theres no shortage of doubters, haters, and pessimists. Overcoming this hard truth is simple: dont listen. Choose to stick with your guns, trust your instincts, and forget about people who dont support your goals and passions.3. _Listen, letting go is hard, especially if youre a go-getter. But if you want to continue to grow, there are times when you need to give up and let things unfold how theyre meant to be, instead of controlling them. This doesnt mean your mentality for everything should be“wait and hope”. You can still strive for greatness, but put the work in and then let go with complete faith that the universe will make things right for you. Youll be amazed at how well it works.4. _Nothing can prepare us for the earth-shattering pain of losing a loved one. The hard truth of life is that its a viscous cycle. However, theres something you can do to make losing someone you love a lot less painful: make them a part of your life right now. Dont put off making that phone call or paying a random visit to a friend or family member you havent seen in a while. Treat every moment with your loved ones as if its your last, and you wont have any regrets.5. _Suffering is part of life. But heres the cool thing: it makes us stronger. Theres a randomness to how the world works, which is really hard to understand. We see evidence of this every day, and it can really make you question the future of mankind. How you choose to view the world is up to you. Just remember, the truth, however hard, will set you free.【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。生活中充满了坎坷, 文章给你列出五种难题, 以助你更好地成长。1. 【解析】C。本段第一句中的“dont come easily”和C项中“dont come quickly”一致, 故选C项。2. 【解析】D。本段最后一句“and forget about people who dont support your goals and passions. ”和D项“不是所有的人一路上都会支持你”意思一致。故选D项。3. 【解析】A。从本段第二句“there are times when you need to give up and let things unfold how theyre meant to be, instead of controlling them. ”可知和A项“你并不能总是控制一切”一致, 故选A项。4. 【解析】F。从本段第三句“However, theres something you can do to make losing someone you love a lot less painful: make them a part of your life right now. ”可知和F项“死亡是生活中的一部分”一致, 故选F项。5. 【解析】E。从本段的第四句“and it can really make you question the future of mankind. ”可知和E项“坏事也会发生在好人身上”一致, 故选E项。
