Two truths to Live By

The art of living is to know when to hold fast and when to let go. For life is a(n) 16 : It teaches us to 17 its many gifts even while it also orders us to give them up when the time comes. The rabbis of old 18_ it this way: ''A man comes to this world with his fist clenched, but when he dies, his hand is open. ''

Surely we ought to hold fast to life, for it is wondrous, and full of a beauty. Learn to _19_ at the golden sunshine and appreciate the wonders of each day. Be thankful and learn to 20 each hour and seize each golden minute.

Hold fast to life, but not so fast that you cannot let go. This is the second side of life's coin : we must accept our losses, and learn how to let go.

At every 21 of life we sustain losses---and grow in the process. We begin our independent lives only when we emerge from the womb and lose its protective 22 .

But why should we be 25 life's contradictory demands? Why should we 26 things of

beauty when beauty is bound to leave us? Why give our heart in love when those will 27 be torn from our grasp?

In order to 28 this paradox, we must seek a wider perspective, viewing our lives as through windows that open on eternity. Once we do that, we realize that though our lives are finite; our deeds on earth weave a 29_ pattern.

Life is never just being, It is a becoming, a flowing on. Our parents live on through us, and we will live on through our children. The institutions we build 30 , and we will last through them. The beauty we create cannot be 31 by death. Our flesh may perish, our hands will grow old, but what they create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to 32 .

Add justice to the human attempt and you have civilization. Put them all together, 35 their present imperfections, and you will have a future lighted with the radiant colors of hope. 16.

cinemas in China on Nov 22.

In an interview with The Hollywood Report, the director said the movie presents “spiritual faith in hope, miracle and survival”.

Pi’s story is an adventurous one. He lives in a town in southern India. When Pi was younger, his father ran a zoo, and having grown up with animals, Pi knows how to keep them under control. However, after the financial crisis, Pi’s comfortable life comes to an end. His father closes the zoo and moves the family to Canada. The family and many of the animals board a ship for their trip. Unfortunately, the ship is hit by a fierce storm and sinks. When the air clears, the only survivors sharing space on a small lifeboat are Pi, a zebra, a hyena, a gorilla, and the most dangerous of all, a huge tiger. The first week in the boat is horrific, because the animals are battling for survival. Pi trembles with fear and manages to avoid being part of the food chain. Eventually, just the tiger and he are left.

The rest of the movie focuses on his 277-day experience at sea. He realizeds that his only hope for survival is to keep the tiger happy. Although he lives in constant terror, Pi manages to provide the tiger with fish, turtles and fresh water. Pi spends most of his time in despair(绝望), yet he refuses to give up and die. Instead, he lives by his wits(智慧) and determination.

US website TheWrap.com described the 3-D movie as “marvelously simple and yet simultaneously complex”. That is to say, On one level, this is a magical tale of survival, with boy and tiger facing off. Meanwhile, on a deeper level, it’s an elegant meditation(冥想) on the role that faith plays in our lives and actions.

The iPhone 5 is a thing of beauty, writes MATT SUN, with sophisticated engineering, a faster processor and more features than its predecessors

APPLE’S iPhone 5 is a beautifully engineered handset with new features including three microphones and noise-cancelling technology.

The most obvious change is the longer screen, which allows an extra row of icons. It may not seem exciting, but it’s more comfortable in the hand and also while holding the handset to your ear. The 16:9 ratio means widescreen videos can be played within minimal letterboxing, if any.

Apple has increased the colour-saturation specs of the retina display although the resolution is the same as the previous 4S and 4 models.

It looks more sophisticated with shiny angled edges and aluminium replacing the glass back. But buy a cover to avoid scratches.
