I am a college student, I'm attempting to run this function in java but i keep running into errors at strange places? Some include '( or[ expected' when I already have parentheses there

static ArrayList read_The_File(String filename){
  ArrayList the_Lines_From_The_File = new ArrayList<>();
    try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new fileReader))(filename);{
    String line;
     while(line = reader.line()!=null){
      String the_Lines_From_The_File;add(line);
             catch(IOException e){
      System.out.println("Error reading file: " + e.getmessage());
       System.exit(0);
    }
  }
}
