10、d-1800s, California was “The Land of the Golden Mountain.” In their homeland they had heard the words, “Theres gold in California.” They sailed 7,000 miles to join the gold rush and strike it rich. Between 1849 and 1882, more than 30,000 Chinese came to California. Most were men. They had been farme
11、rs in China. They came here to be miners and laborers. They ended up doing many other jobs, too.Like many other immigrants, they did not plan to stay in America. They came because of their ties to their homeland and their families. They planned to return to China with their fortunes and help their f
12、amilies.Only a few Chinese gold miners struck it rich. Most picked over the areas that had been mined already. But still, white miners resented the Chinese. Slowly, they drove the “yellow people” from the mining camps.By the end of the 1850s, many Chinese returned home. Those who stayed found other
13、jobs. Few women had come west in the gold rush. The Chinese saw a good business opportunity. They began doing the jobs women would have done. Many became house servants.

17、on to little complaints that may have come from an argument, a misunderstanding, the way we were raised, or some other painful event. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to usbelieving this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.A friend of mine
18、recently told me that she hadnt spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldnt speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she said, “I cant do that. Hes the one who s
19、hould apologize.” After a little gentle encouragement, however, she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins.W
20、henever we hold on to our anger, we turn “small stuff （问题）” into really “big stuff” in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not.

Small and
25、 Big Stuff D. Enjoy Your FriendshipCViolin prodigies （神童）, I learned, have come in distinct waves from distinct regions. Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked Isaac Stern, one of the worlds greatest violi
26、nists the reason for this phenomenon. “It is very clear,” he told me. “They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill-treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to achieve excellence on a concert stage.” As a
27、result, every Jewish parents dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West.Another element in the appearance of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field to nurture （培育） talent. Nowadays, the most nurturing societies seem to be i
28、n the Far East. “In Japan, a most competitive society, with stronger discipline than ours,” says Isaac Stern, children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music.

29、but it became a discipline as well. The Koreans and Chinese as we know, are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.Thats a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance（遗传） plays an important role in the making of a prodigy. J. S. Bach, for example, w
