弹奏美妙的五弦琴，读滋味无穷的圣贤书。挥笔写下文章，述说那古代圣王们的教范。点评：作者表示自己归隐田园后，以著述为中心，阐明圣则。苟纵心于物外，安知荣辱之所如？我将置身于世人之外，哪管什么荣耀与耻辱？

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

As a kid， I spent my summers with my grandparents on their ranch in Texas. I helped fix windmills， vaccinate cattle， and do other chores. We also watched soap operas every afternoon， especially "Days of our Lives." My grandparents belonged to a Caravan Club， a group of Airstream trailer owners who travel together around the U.S. and Canada. And every few summers， we'd join the caravan. We'd hitch up the Airstream trailer to my grandfather's car， and off we'd go， in a line with 300 other Airstream adventurers. I loved and worshipped my grandparents and I really looked forward to these trips. On one particular trip， I was about 10 years old. I was rolling around in the big bench seat in the back of the car. My grandfather was driving. And my grandmother had the passenger seat. She smoked throughout these trips， and I hated the smell.
