I was sitting in an introduction to calligraphy workshop when a fellow student asked the teacher， " What do I need to become a professional calligrapher？ " We were all on the edge of our seats with that one.It was as if we were about to learn the secret ingredient to Grandma's cookies.The answer，to our surprise，was pen and paper.
    " The materials are no different than that of a beginner calligrapher， " the instructor explained.The difference between a beginner and professional calligrapher is not in the tools they use，but rather in the professional's commitment （奉獻） to practice and the time they took to learn and do something.
    The same goes for any professional at their craft.
    When we look up to the expert，we think that increasing the quality of materials or having access to nicer resources is what makes them great.This assumption doesn't take into account the time it would have taken them to learn something new and to achieve their goals.
    Instead，we want to cut corners，looking for a shortcut.We want to make progress as soon as possible.But it is not a strategy that necessarily benefits us.
    My current goal is to become an independent filmmaker.What would it take，what would I need to make the best movies？I too，wanted the shortcut.The direct way to achieve my goal.Is there a certain camera I need to have，light kit （工具箱），microphone or skill that would lead me right to success？After watching online videos about film-making，I realized I had all that I needed to achieve my goal.There was no shortcut to film-making.It was just going to take time.
    It's easy to get caught in wasting time looking for a solution instead of time.In the end，we lose energy and motivation looking for the right tools or answers.
    We do things to go fast rather than far.We focus on the end result instead of allowing ourselves to enjoy the journey.Go for.Reach farther.Take the time to become your best self.

  • 3．Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence．They can be exciting films but sometimes all you want is a little light-hearted entertainment．
       Have you heard of Bollywood？All singing，all dancing and unrealistic，it is the perfect alternative to normal Hollywood movies．Bollywood is the Indian film industry，based in Mumbai，formerly known as Bombay．（1）
    Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world．This year the Indian Filmgare Awards，Bollywood's Oscars，turn 50 years old．
       The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients：a cup of romance，a tea-spoon of comedy，a dash of international sight-seeing，served with a huge slice of singing and dancing．There will also be one brave hero，one beautiful heroine and one baddy．（2）

       Bollywood films are full of ideal things and free of daily worries．（3）
    The actors change clothes and locations within a single song．But the audience don't mind．To Indian movie lovers，especially the poor，such films are a gateway to heaven and the stars are their gods．The films take them to a magical world away from their everyday troubles．The films tell them the impossible is possible and that true love conquers all．
    （4）
    Behind the beautiful scenes，Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values．In most films，if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage，they can't just run away．They must win over their parents．
       Bollywood is a decent refreshing replacement for those over-stimulating Hollywood films．（5）
    They will take you to a brighter，cheerier and more colorful world，where it's still cool to dance around a tree and sing a love song．

    A．Bollywood has gradually won its reputation on the world stage．
    B．There is never any mention of politics，poverty or war．
