He had no hobbies but just tame care of his family. For 22 years, since 1 left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00am. He was interested in my life-how my family was doing . The calls even came when he and mymother were in Australia, England or Florida. Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours forthree days, painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked was a class of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father. Five years ago，my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set(秋千)for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him. Butagain, I had laundry(要洗的衣服)to do, and the house to clean.

I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed(发誓)that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him. I arrived in Florida at 1:00 a.m.,but my father had passed away at 9:12 p.m. This time it was he who did not have time to talk ortime to wait for me. In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father and even more about myself. As a father, he never asked me for anything but my time. Now he has all my attention, every single day.44.

Most performers start life with a group. This is the pattern nowadays. But there are many groups and the competition is hard. Groups appear and disappear almost overnight. Only a small number survive. Almost without exception(例外) they have to work very hard before they reach the top. And very few reach the top and stay there.

Whats more, they have quite a lot of expenses(开销).They have to pay a manager, for example. He is the key person in their lives and he takes about 20 % of their earnings perhaps more.
