alone try to create new relationships and build a business I am forced to face the inevitable 不可避免的 truth every day Gradually I ve found that I have accepted my dad s wisdom We all will face loss or unexpected changes But unfairness should not be the only thing in our life We choose for ourselves what seems fair by comparing our lives with others and this can lead us to feel that our own lives are unfair People need to ignore what others have and set their own plans Certainly there re so many unhappy events in the world and in our lives and when we deal with them we try to control as many

is unfair but you can be fair and learn how to enjoy life 82 How did the author feel when she heard her father s answer A She felt surprised B She thought it was wise C She was happy D She felt it was
