  I had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother’s who owned a bookshop

    1   me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very   2   to earn my own pocket money and my parents   3   interfered(干涉) with how I spent it, even when I was spending it   4   . They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the   5   , I would become more mature(成熟) and   6   about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.

  Like many   7   parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they

    8   a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around   9   . My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great   10   for me. In the end, my father won the    11   on the condition that I limited my traveling to France, my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins   12   through the country who could    13   shelter and help if I need them.

Three years later, my younger brother decide to   14   a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not   15   to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a(n)   16   year working his way on trains and ships to   17   passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.

  These kinds of experiences are probably rare(稀少的) for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly   18   . Most parents start   19   their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have   20   the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career, and so on.

If we were to keep a record of all the things we worried about during a given period of time,we would discover—in reviewing them—that the great majority of our     16     never come to pass. This means that most of the time we     17     to worrying,even the constructive(建设性的)kind that prompts us to try to come up with a     18     to what is troubling us,is wasted.     19   ,we not only caused ourselves unnecessary mental pain,but also    20   valuable minutes and hours that could have been spent elsewhere.

To     21     this,it is often necessary to subject(使……遭受)potential     22     of worry to the coldly objective. Once,before a major     23     in front of a standing-room-only audience,a member of Arturo Toscanini’s orchestra approached(接近)the great Italian conductor with a terrible    24   on his face.“Maestro(大师),”the musician said     25   ,“my instrument is not working     26   .I cannot reach the    27    of E-flat.Whatever will I do?We are to     28     a few moments later.”

Toscanini looked with total     29      at the man.Then he    30     kindly and placed an arm around his shoulders.“My friend,”the maestro replied,“do not worry about it.The note E-flat does not    31   anywhere in the music that you will be    32   this evening.”

The next time we find ourselves in the middle of     33     about some matter,we might be wise to    34    and ask ourselves what the odds(几率)are of the problem really coming to    35   .We may be able to go on to something more constructive.
