Since her husband had died ten years before, she had prided herself on her independence. She had continued to live in their little house, alone.

On this evening, however, whe was standing at ther living-room window, staring out at the

SOLD notice in the small front garden. Her feelings were mixed. Of course, she was sad at the thought of leaving the house, as it was full of so many memories. But at the same time she was looking forward to spending her last years near the sea, back in the little seaside town where she had been born. With the money from the sale of the house, she had bought a little flat there. She turned from the living room window, and looked round at the room. One or two pieces of furniture remained, covered with sheets. All her pictures had been taken from the walls. There was a small fish tank, with two goldfish in it. When asked why, her husband used to say: “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.” Since he had passed away, she had always kept some goldfish, and always had “something alive in the room.”

The next morning, as her train was pulling out of the station, Mrs. Robinson called to her

daughter, “Kate, you won’t forget to collect the goldfish, will you? The children will love them.

It’s…”

“I know,” Kate interrupted gently. “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.” But in the

little house, the two goldfish had stopped their circling. They were floating on the water, in the room with empty walls.

people who have always been around. They make a fuss over (对……关怀备至) the children in the family, show off to their friends the achievements of this child or that child, and show countless pictures of new babies. Grandfathers can fix anything, and grandmothers always have

homemade biscuit around.

When you are small, it’s fun to stay with your grandparents because they always let you do

things you can’t do at home, and, of course, they buy you things. They are always able to baby-sit (临时照看婴儿) because they don’t go out much and actually prefer to see their grandchildren. They are usually good for a small loan now and then that doesn’t need to be paid back because they turn it into a gift. You respectfully listen to their advice but don’t follow it because they are old and don’t understand how things are in his day and age. You thank them politely for what they do for you, and then don’t call or visit them until you need something else. And, of course, you never tell them how dear they are to you because they know how you feel about them anyway.

young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

Youth is a time when there are few tasks to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, e

is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.

every man who hears these words. Some feel pride when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Althought there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.

Whatever the response to the birth of a child, it is clear that the change from the role of

husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unluckily, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only
