Answer:
Missing a little context here, but I'll assume it's a mom talking to a rebellious teen, or similar. (sorry if I got it wrong.)
I would assume that a frustrated mother is talking to a brand new adult that is now refusing to obey their mother. Or something like that. So, she is guilting them by saying how many years of her life she spent on them. All that time she could have spent doing something else, but instead, she invested it in them, and this is what she is getting out of it?
I guess this also depends on what the "Advanced Reading Skills" lessons talks about, but don't think of it as "really hard"! Work on one word, one phrase, one sentence, and you'll start making progress. =)
In general, when translating, the first thing you'll have to do is to understand the paragraph, but you're right, this isn't that easy a paragraph to translate. You could use an English dictionary, or a bilingual dictionary (http://www.nciku.com<span>is good for English-Chinese) to help you. While you're doing this, try to pick out important words and translate them first, and see if you could understand what each sentence means. </span>
<span>Sometimes, words may have multiple meanings or be used as metaphors - for example, "amputated" means "having been cut off", but in your 2nd sentence, it means that the poet should not be condemned and criticised to the point where he is treated as having no value. </span>
<span>Finally, after you've translated the text, don't forget to read it to check if it makes sense in the language you're using - and if it makes for smooth reading!</span>
If if the question is to put in the right punctuation than I think this should be it (“run the owner is coming” said the naughty boy, while others giggled, they were in fact gathering the windfall mangoes. Why are you here? I'll punish you. “you will never get hold of me”)

I GOTCHUUUU :))
Explanation:
For all of the causes that made the French Revolution occur, there were reasons behind them as to why they happened. The causes were Bankruptcy of the government, influence from the American Revolution, and political inequalities. The government became bankrupt because Louis XIV and Louis XVI spent way too much money. Louis XVI had a plan to improve, so he wanted to eliminate all of the ministers who wanted to launch financial reform. Because of that, it led them to being bankrupt.
The French was influenced by the American Revolution. Because of America's success, it encouraged the French to fight for freedom.
Because of political inequalities, the nobles took advantage of not having to pay taxes, having freedom, etc. The middle class, peasants, and artisans worked very hard and actually had to pay taxes. They were not allowed to let out their opinions about political topics. Not everything was fair for everyone.
