My wife and I moved into our home nine years ago.We have a yard a rock garden.There

the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.Very often when we have more flowers,Denise or I would plant them between the rocks,just to and some color to the area.

Last summer I found, in the rock garden, a tiny little plant that I could not immediately recognize. I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise said she didn’t either.We decided to ler ir continue growing until we could find out what it was.

Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the strange plant, it appcared to be a sunflower. It looked thin and tall with only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed（除草）around it.As Ipulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds,I noticed something unusual.The sunflower had not started where I saw it begin.it actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.

If a tiny little sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing,we too have the ability to do the same ting. If we believe in ourselves like that little sunflower, we can reach where we aim to go and get what we need for groewth.

Most musicians agree thet the best viclins(小提琴) were made in Cremona, ltaly about 200 years ago. They even sound better ther violins madc toady. Vilin makers and seientists try to make instruments(乐器) like the ltalian

Violins, however, they are not the same. Why are these old ltalian violins so special? No one rcally knows. But many think they have an answer.

Some people think it is the age of the violins. But there is a problem here. Not all odl violins sound wonderful. Oniy the old violins from Cremona are specicl. So age cannot be answer.

Other people think the seeret to theose violins is the wood. Lt must be from certain kinds of trees. Lt must not be too old. Perhaps the vilin makers of Cremona knew something sperial about wood for violins.

But the kind of wood may not be so important. It mey be more important to eut the wood in a speeial way. Wood for a ivlin must be eut into the right size and shape. The smallest differemce will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this is the secret of the Italians

Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists make new violins thet are exactly the same size and shape. But the new ones still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the seeret may be the varnish(清漆). It makes the wood look shiny,but is also helps the soune of the instrument. Since no noe knows what the Italian violin makers used in vamish,on ont can make the same vamish today.

There may never be other be other violins like the violons of Cremona. And there are not meny of the ol violins left. So these old violins from Cremona bemoan more and more precious.
