My sister and I grew up in a little village in England. Our father was a struggling     , but I always knew he was     . He never criticized us, but used        to bring out our best. He’d say, “If you pour water on flowers, they flourish. If you don’t give them water, they die. ” I       as a child I said something       about somebody, and my father said, “     time you say something unpleasant about somebody else, it’s a reflection(反映)of you. ” He explained that if I looked for the best       people, I would get the best      . From then on I’ve always tried to       the principle in my life and later in running my company.
Dad’s also always been very      . At 15, I started a magazine. It was       a great deal of my time, and the headmaster of my school gave me a      : stay in school or leave to work on my magazine. I decided to leave, and Dad tried to get me to change my decision,       any good father would. When he realized I had made up my mind, he said, “Richard, when I was 23, my dad       me to go into law. And I’ve       regretted it. I wanted to be a biologist, __   I didn’t realize my      . You know what you want. Go achieve it. ”
As      turned out, my little publication went on to become Student, a national       for young people in the U. K. My wife and I have two children, and I’ d like to think we are bringing them up in the same way Dad       me.

I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I'm left      . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other     ?
I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s,       children from different races and religions played and studied      in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone's       from Ismail's. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu—we just       our differences. Perhaps,our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice, well      or otherwise.
We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we 'd     the countryside on our bicycles,hoping to       the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his      .
When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail's family later returned to their village, and I       touch with him. One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I       my destination. The driver acknowledged my        but did not move off. Instead, he looked        at me. “Raddar?" he said, using my childhood nickname (绰号).I was astonished at being so       addressed (称呼).Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two       we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something      to describe.
If we can allow our children to be      without prejudice, they'll build friendships with people,regardless of race or religion, who will be      their side through thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and       we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, “We happy few. We band of brothers".

I have a cousin who’s a farmer. If you saw him on market day with his old boots and worn hat, you might think he was a tramp (流浪汉). But he’s either buying or selling       for thousands of pounds. He doesn’t have a luxurious lifestyle, but the farmhouse, dozens of acres of land, machinery, cattle, chicken and crops must be worth a fortune. You might describe him as a       man, but he doesn’t look like that.
My father owned a shop selling newspapers, cigarettes, birthday cards, toys, books and magazines. The shop       a comfortable life for us, but we weren’t rich. The only luxury was that my father owned a car when most people in our town couldn’t afford one,      professionals such as doctors and lawyers.
My point is that       can be misleading. You often can’t       the rich from the way they look.
I once met Richard Branson, the Virgin Airlines tycoon (巨头).He’d       a hot balloon across the Atlantic and landed in the Irish sea. When he was rescued, he was wearing jeans, a T-shirt and a sneaker. You’d       have guessed he was a multimillionaire.
Andrew Bruce, the 11th Earl (伯爵) of Elgin,       a group of press people to his luxurious home in Fife, Scotland. His      , the 7th Earl of Elgin was famous for removing and transporting to Britain priceless sculptures from the Parthenon, a very famous temple in Greece. The so-called Elgin Marbles can be seen in the British Museum. The Earl’s castle was       cold, despite a fire burning in the hearth (壁炉). He explained to us,“I’m sorry it’s so cold, but you should know that a gentleman’s house is always cold.”
There you have it:     doesn’t always bring comfort.
