We all have friends, family, and companions. But sometimes when we are faced with some kind of trouble, we can only work it out by our own effort.
Have you had this kind of experience before?


With the wane of the afternoon went her hopes, her courage, and her strength. She had been astonishingly persistent. So earnest an effort was well deserving of a better reward. On every hand, to her fatigued senses, the great business portion grew larger, harder, more stolid in its indifference. It seemed as if it was all closed to her, that the struggle was too fierce for her to hope to do anything at all.(From Sister Carrie)
她的希望、勇气和力气随着下午的逝去也在渐渐消失。她这天一直表现出惊人的毅力,像她这么执着而努力地找工作,理应有个更好的结果。可每次碰壁以后,在她筋疲力尽之余,这个大商业区显得越发的高不可攀,冷漠无情了。

Words:
Wane      v. If something such as power, influence, or a feeling wanes, it becomes gradually less strong or less important.
          n. on the wane
Fatigue   n. a feeling of being extremely tired, usually because of hard work or exercise
Fatigued  adj. very tired, both physically and mentally
Stolid    adj. not showing much emotion or interest; remaining always the same and not reacting or changing
Inversion Sentence倒装

That's why we should learn how to solve problems. Some kind of trouble have to be worked out by ourselves, while some may be resolved by other's help or corporation.

usually things would not run as our imagination, trouble happened all the times, but most times we should face up to them alone, so cheer up. Nothing cannot cope, even though you failed, you should also gain the experience.
