Ex1
I guess I was what one might call a (1) ...spoilt child, for I was the
only child of Mary and David Bettleman and I got whatever I wanted. I had a
rather weak-minded mother and by contrast a very (2)domineering
father who had exceedingly high expectations of me, expectations that I could
not (3)live up to You see, my father was quite an eminent lawyer
and wanted nothing more than for me to (4)follow in his
footsteps. He encouraged me to win at everything and to be ultra-competitive.
He just couldn't see that he was being far too (5)pushy and
putting too much (6)pressure on me. He simply thought that he was
acting in my best (7)interests Not surprisingly, perhaps, I
(8)rebelled against my upbringing by becoming thoroughly
apathetic at school. As soon as I turned 18, I (9)struck out on my own
and went off on a trip to India. It was there that I met Ingrid, a fellow traveller.
It became clear that we came from very similar backgrounds. She too was
running away from something: in her case a very (10)sheltered
upbringing, caused by having two very over-protective parents. We
(11)hit it off immediately, and I (12)plucked up courage and
asked her to be my girlfriend. But I was young and I needed space, and I guess I
was too immature to handle the give and take of a relationship. Or perhaps I
was just afraid of (13)commitment. Anyway, we went through a very
bad (14)patch and had a (15)trial separation for a
couple of months.

O'ylaymanki, men (1) ... buzilgan bola deb atash mumkin bo'lgan odam edim, chunki men edi

Meri va Devid Bettlemanning yagona farzandi va men xohlagan narsamni oldik. Menda bor edi
juda zaif ona va aksincha, juda (2) hukmron
Mendan juda katta umidlar bo'lgan ota
emas (3) ko'ryapsizmi, otam juda taniqli huquqshunos edi
va men (4) unga ergashishimdan boshqa hech narsani xohlamadi
qadam tovushlari. U meni hamma narsada g'alaba qozonishga va o'ta raqobatbardosh bo'lishga undadi.
U shunchaki o'zini juda uzoq (5) itarayotganini ko'ra olmadi
menga juda ko'p (6) bosim o'tkazish. U shunchaki shunday deb o'yladi
Mening eng yaxshi (7) manfaatlarim uchun harakat qilish ajablanarli emas, ehtimol, men
(8) puxta bo'lib tarbiyamga qarshi chiqdi
maktabda befarqlik. 18 yoshga to'lishim bilan men (9) o'zimni urdim
va Hindistonga sayohatga jo'nab ketdi. Aynan u yerda men sayohatchi Ingridni uchratdim.
Biz juda o'xshash kelib chiqishimiz ayon bo'ldi. U ham shunday edi
biror narsadan qochish: uning holatida juda (10) boshpana
tarbiya, ikkita haddan tashqari himoyalangan ota-onaga ega bo'lishdan kelib chiqqan. Biz
(11) zudlik bilan urdi va men (12) jasorat topdim va
uni mening qiz do'stim bo'lishini so'radi. Ammo men yosh edim va menga bo'sh joy kerak edi va menimcha
munosabatlarni berish va qabul qilish uchun juda etuk emas edi. Yoki ehtimol men
faqat (13) majburiyatdan qo'rqardi. Qanday bo'lmasin, biz juda ko'p narsalarni boshdan kechirdik
yomon (14) yamoq va a uchun (15) sinov ajratish mavjud edi
ikki oy.
