Reading is my hobby. While reading, I can get a lot of happiness. When I'mfree, I often read some famous books. Books are my best friends that always keepme a good company. They often give me powers. Through reading, I can enlarge myeyes as well as widen my heart. Through reading, I become more and moreknowledgeable.
My favorite books are Readers and VOA. Readers cover the knowledge ofculture, literature, and history, so I can benefit a lot by reading it. VOA canlet me know the foreign countries better. Thanks to VOA, my oral English isimproving day by day.
This is my good habit that I will keep it forever.
Ladies and gentlemen, your honored judges
When you're leaving the hotel will you look into a mirror and adjust yourclothes in front of it. But if it were a black mirror what could we get? Withtechnology developing at a rocket speed, the black mirror is everywhere, on thescreens of our cellphones, our computers and our televisions. In our daily life,we are always facing black mirrors. However, we can hardly see ourselves in it.Perhaps sometimes we can, but only as a colourless face. Technology has broughtgreat convenience of communication for information but at the same time, it haswebbed our thought.
Several years ago, an article named “Is Google making us stupid” got quitepopular on the Internet. At that time, I thought it was just alarmism but now Ifind it much worse because technology is not just making us stupid but alsoweakening our independent thought. About half year ago, I was invited to judge adebate competition. When I arrived at the competition room, I noticed it was anold and classic topic, so I was expecting those players to give me some new andspecial ideas. Unfortunately, when the game continued, I found all theviewpoints and examples they used were totally the same as the previouscompetition. The only fun during the competition was to predict what they wouldsay. As far as I was concerned, they were not making a debate but replaying avideo. Obviously, they just spoke for the black mirror.
Debate was born as an area that we use our own thought to defend ouropinion. However due to high technology, all these "My opinion is" in thecompetition are actually "The opinion I have found is". That is , really, atragedy because all human dignity lies in thought which has been weakened byconvenient technology.
Truth to be told, debate is not the only example. In every field, we canget whatever information or opinions we want from the almighty black mirror. Asa consequence, how to restructure human thought has become not only importantbut also necessary in today's technologically advanced world. And the answer ishumanism which stands for human independent special mind. Just as humanism freedpeople's thought from the force of religion in the Renaissance, I'm waiting inthe hope that it can rescue the ideology trapped in high technology. Humanism isa Lodestar guiding us to the era that anyone can form their own opinion aboutanything but not just speak the words from the Internet.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not an anti-technologist but I do care aboutthose disadvantages that technology brings to our present life. With the laundrymachine, we don't know how to hand wash clothes clean. With electronic addressbooks, we can even hardly remember our girlfriends or boyfriends' phone numbers.And now with a convenient way to get opinion, we seldom think with our own mind.If so, human is only a reed, the feeblest thing in nature. So follow the spiritof humanism, have an independent mind, so that we can be colorful in those blackmirrors.
They know each other more in the biblical sense as well. Message numberthree: Don't leave before you leave. I think there's a really deep irony to thefact that actions women are taking — and I see this all the time — with theobjective of staying in the workforceactually lead to their eventually leaving.Here's what happens: We're all busy. Everyone's busy. A woman's busy. And shestarts thinking about having a child, and from the moment she starts thinkingabout having a child, she starts thinking about making room for that child. "Howam I going to fit this into everything else I'm doing?" And literally from thatmoment, she doesn't raise her hand anymore, she doesn't look for a promotion,she doesn't take on the new project, she doesn't say, "Me. I want to do that."She starts leaning back.
People often say that gold and silver are the most valuable things in theworld.But
I don't think so. In my opinion, to read books is more valuable thananything else.
The old saying “To open a book is always helpful” clearly tells us how goodit is to read a book.
Books are our friends. They introduce us different kinds of knowledge. Theylead us down the road to success.
Books are our teachers. They teach us troth, science, literature, andphilosophy of life. Besides, they increase our knowledge, enlarge ourexperience,strengthen our character and do many other things which we can not dowithout them.
Books tell us what is good and what is evil. And only books can tell thegood from the bad.
Therefore to read more books is the best policy for our young students.
Failure is common in our real life.It is somthing that inevitable toeveryone.But people's attitudes failure differ.
To those pessimists, failure is just like a mountain lies before them andprevent them from walking forward.when they face it,they give up easily.Only onefailure is enough to make them feel sad,lose their hearts.As a result,they won'ttry again.In other words,they have been beaten by the failure totally.However tothose optimists,the attitude is quite opposite.In their eyes,one failure doesn'tmean anything,for it's just an experience that unavoidable on their way to thesuccess.Knowing this,therefore,they will never complain od feel sad.What theywill do is to calm down and find out the causes of their failures,then analysethem in order to avoid making the same mistake.
In my view, of course,I tend to the second attitude.actually,failure is akind of required course in our life.It is not an end but a start for us as longas we make good use of it.Thus, don't give up and give in.Remember,failureitself is not fearful.What matters is your attitudes towardsit.and?fragile.They?will?lose?in?great?pain?even?suicide.?At?this?question?which?argument?is?reasonable,i?have?my?own?ideas.At?first,i?hate?failure.But?Gold?take?no?cares?and?we?always?be?a?loser?at?last.However,we?cannot?be?beat?by?the?failure,we?should?find?the?problem?solution?on?the?basic?of?failure?and?overcome?the?difficulty.?Only?in?this?way?can?the?failure?play?a?good?role.
If there is any single factor that makes for success in living,it is theability to profit by defeat.Every success I know has been achieved because theperson was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his nextundertaking.
Confuse defeat with failure,and you are doomed indeed to failure.For itisn't defeat that makes you fail:it is your own refusal to see in defeat theguide and encouragement to success.
Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of.They are routine incidents in the lifeof every man who achieves success.But defeat is a dead loss unless you do faceit without humiliation,analyze it and learn why you failed.Defeat,in otherwords,can help to cure its own cause.Not only does defeat prepare us forsuccess,but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed.Ifyou let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away,he will cling more and moretightly until his whole weight is suspended.It is this same reaction whichshould give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated.
If you exploit the power which defeat gives,you can accomplish with it farmore than you are capable of.
My Spare Time
I am a middle school student. Though I’m busy with my lessons, my sparetime is still colorful.
After school I usually play sports. I like basketball and football verymuch. Sports help me to keep healthy and study better. I often do some readingin the evening. I think books are our best friends. They give us much knowledgethat we can’t learn at school. So reading books is the best way of spending myspare time.
Sometimes I watch TV or surf the Internet. I find it’s a good way to relaxmyself. At the same time it can also help me open up my eyes to the outsideworld. At the weekends I often help my parents with the housework. I clean thehouse, wash clothes and learn to cook. During the summer or winter vacation, Ihave enough time to do things like volunteering. I help those people who are inneed. It’s a good experience for me. I enjoy myself in my spare time.
我的业余生活
我是一名中学生。尽管学业繁忙，但是我的业余生活仍然丰富多彩。
放学后我常常参加体育活动。我非常喜欢打篮球和踢足球。体育运动令我身体健康、学习也更加优秀。到了晚上，我常常会读点书。我认为书籍是我们的朋友，它教给了我们许多在学校里学不到的知识，所以读书大大充实了我的业余时间。
偶尔我也会看看电视、上上网，这倒是放松自己不错的方式，与此同时，还能开阔自己的视野。周末的时候，我经常帮父母做做家务：打扫房子、洗衣物、学做饭。在寒暑假，我有足够的时间，可以做的事情有很多，比如做一名志愿者，去帮助那些需要帮助的人们。这对我来说是一份宝贵的经验。总之，我乐享我的业余生活。
we cannot walk alone.and as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. we cannot turn back. there are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "when will you be satisfied?" we can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. we cannot be satisfied as long as the negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. we can never be satisfied as long as a negro in mississippi cannot vote and a negro in new york believes he has nothing for which to vote. no, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.
the marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro community must not lead us to distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.
Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen,
Want to know how to feel bad about yourself? These tips are 100% effectiveand are guaranteed to make you feel really, really bad about yourself!
No.1 Compare yourself to everyone and everything around. Pick out thingsthey have that you don't;think how “lucky” they are and how “unlucky” youare.
No.2 Tell yourself over and over again things like “I am horrible”, “I amugly”, “I am disgusting”, or “I am useless.”
Sometimes, without even really knowing it, we can actively choose to bemiserable! In reality, it is more likely that you would like to invite feelingsof low self-esteem into your life. Low self-esteem has been attributed as beinga major obstacle to success. A recent survey conducted by the China PopulationCommunication Centershowed that nearly half of the interviewed studentssaid thatthey lacked a sense of security in social interactionsand suffered from lowself-esteem. Young people are the back bone to the nation. Their actions andattitudes are like a barometer of the health of a society. If our youth arecourageous and have faith in themselves, they can contribute to the developmentof our nation and our society will be in good health. On the contrary, if theysuffer from low self-esteem, our society will get sick.
I would like to share with you a true story about Nicholas James Vujicic.He was born with Tetra-amelia, a rare disorder characterized by the absence ofall four limbs. He struggled as a child, eventually came to terms with hisdisability and started his own non-profit organization Life Without Limbs – atage seventeen. He is widely known as a motivational speaker, giving talksworldwide on life with a disability, hope, and finding meaning in life.
He was bullied at school, Vujicic grew depressed and by the age of 8,contemplated suicide. At age 10, he tried to drown himself in 4 inches of water,but did not go through with it out of love for his parents. After praying togrow arms and legs, Vujicic eventually realized that his accomplishments couldinspire others – and became grateful for his life. A key turning point came whenhis mother showed him a newspaper article about a man dealing with a severedisability. Vujicic realized he wasn't unique in his struggles and began toembrace and transcend his disability.
This man, the soldier of life, came to my hometown 2 months ago. I got tolisten to him, and talk to him, face to face. I could never forget the look inhis face when he said “when I was young, I always feel cold, and dark. My firstdream was to grow arms and legs, but there is no future for me at all. ” Andnow, 28 years has passed since he was born, 28 years without arms and legs.Nick’s first dream didn't come true, but he didn't lose his faith of himself,and the faith of this life.
Nick is living a life without limbs, and also a life without limits.Compare to him, young people, there is no excuses to lose our faith in ourselvesand this world. I understand that life couldn't be anything we want it to be,and life couldn't bring us everything we long for, sometimes, life even takesaway our cherished ones. However, we are young; we are the hope of the wholeworld. Faith is right there within our reach.
Never lose faith, let us make to our life, to our future a dearpromise.
The environmental pollution is worse and worse more and more seriouslytoday. Water is polluted; we have no clean water to drink. Many trees arecutting down, some animals is getting less and less. Some factories are pouringdirty air in the sky, the population is increasing faster and faster, resourcesare getting less and less…etc. Not only does it affect our lives and health, itbut also has a great affection in the future. People's health has been greatlyaffected by air, noise and water pollution. Many people died of diseases. Inorder to live a better life, we need protect our world。
We shouldn't throw away rubbish everywhere. We want to recycle, reduce,reuse things .Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution. Usethings for as long as possible. We don't use plastic bags. We must plant moretrees and stop the people cutting them .We hope our world becomes more and morebeautiful.
现在的环境被污染得越来越差。水被污染导致我们没有干净的水喝。许多树木被砍伐,一些动物正变得越来越少。一些工厂把脏空气在天空中,人口增长越来越快,资源变得越来越少等。它不仅影响我们的生活和健康,它也有一个伟大的感情。极大地影响了人们的健康空气,噪音和水污染。许多人死于疾病。为了过上更好的生活,我们需要保护我们的世界。
我们不应该到处扔垃圾。我们要学会回收利用。不要浪费东西。这可以节省资金,减少污染。使用尽可能长时间的事情。我们不使用塑料袋。我们必须种植更多的树木和停止削减他们的人。我们希望我们的世界变得越来越美丽。
Have you ever bought any food on the train? And do you ask for the receiptafter buying it? Nowadays, all trains in China provide its passengers withreceipts for commodities, but 7 years ago, things were quite different.
On 13th of October, 20__, the train T109 from Beijing to Shanghai wasspeeding on the railway. A graduate student bought a sausage at 1 yuan on thetrain, then asked for a receipt.
“Are you kidding? It’s just one yuan!” The crew member was surprised.
The student, however, answered in a determined voice, “I paid the money, soI deserve the receipt.”
“But we never give receipts on the train.’ As a result, his further requestwas turned down by a cold shoulder.
Several days later, the student sued the National Railway Ministry, for notproviding receipts for passengers.
To his dismay, the court turned down the case for lack of evidence. But he,who majored in law at that time, believed law as a most powerful weapon, so hedid not give up. Instead, he began his journey of collecting first-hand evidenceby taking trains and buying commodities aboard. When his classmates were playingsoccer, he was taking the train; When his classmates were buying food atMcdonald’s, he was buying food on the train; When his classmates were askinggirls out, he was asking for the receipts. As he joked, ‘I was either taking thetrain or on the way to take the train.’
One month later, he appeared in the court again, with newly-collectedevidence and a stronger confidence. And I guess, ladies and gentlemen, you willall cheer for the result because this time, the student won the case. Very soon,a regulation about receipts on the train came out. And whatever we buy on thetrain now, there’s a receipt for us.
Outside the court, the student was asked, “How do you make it to the end?”He said, “As a law student, I root my faith in law. I believe that law is there,to protect every person with no exception, and to ensure every person has asay.”
His words spread a strong faith in law, which is not only a doctrine of alaw student, but also a belief that all citizens ought to hold. It is this faiththat initiates the student to resort to law for a tiny issue; it is this faiththat supports him to endure all the exhausting trips when collecting evidence;It is this faith that makes a seemingly “ridiculous” receipt request legal andrightful. It is this faith that helps to change our life, enhance our judicialsystem and bring social justice.
To many, a receipt of 1 yuan is too small to mention, however rights are tobe respected and law is to be believed in. It all starts with a tiny receipt of1 yuan, but we get a monumental case, a new regulation and a bumper harvest insocial justice. The bridge that leads a tiny start to a bumper harvest is faith,the faith in law, rightful and strong.
Everyone has dreams about life, different dreams at different life stage,and we need dreams to support us. Dreams are like the stars we never reach in the sky,but like most mariners,we can chart our course by them. With the dream,we have a direction,with a direction, we were no longer confused.With the dream, there is hope,With hope, we have the strength to fight.
I have a dream: To be a doctor.，because doctor may relieve the pain of patients. May let the human change the health. At the same time, I believed that, those who help others may be able to obtain joyfully. Therefore, I hoped in the near future ,I might be a doctor.
But I know，life is tough,and there are always ups and downs, maybe we fail in the way to our aims,and we may feel depressed ,whenever at this time, the dream in our heart can always comfort us, encourage us ,and support us to move ahead.
Young!Fortunately, I am young now. Just due to it, I know that nothing is impossible.I firmly believe that nothing can stand in my way. If I can't realize my dream,it result from that I haven't work harder enough and I won't find other excuses. If no people believe you, you can make it to prove that you are right. If you think the god haven't blessed you and there is no truth here, you can become the god and create the truth.
“My breath swallows the sky and make the yellow river overflow, my sword is famous in Kyushu and it can collapse the five sacred mountains.” At some time in the past I also had am bitious words and I had some achievements. Each achievement results from my hard work. I always believe that “If you want to have more achievements than others, you must work harder.” In some extent, the dream is the hope. If you can insist on doing something, the victory will come.
five score years ago, a great american, in whose symbolic shadow we stand signed the emancipation proclamation. this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity.
but one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the negro is still not free. one hundred years later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. one hundred years later, the negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. one hundred years later, the negro is still languishing in the corners of american society and finds himself an exile in his own land. so we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.
in a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. when the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the constitution and the declaration of independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every american was to fall heir. this note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Everyone in our life should face something we hate,or some one we neverwant to face.
So,how can we face the difficulties.
Difficulties happen all the time,but do not be afraid of difficultys.Justgo ahead withe what we are doing with a smile.Do cry and have a smile ,which isthe best way we can use to beat difficulties.Never give up and do your best fortomorrow's sunthine.Trust yourself ,believe in that tomorrow will be better.
You see,no matter what difficulties we face,we always smile,don'twe?So，earthquake we are not afraid because of our smile;hXnX, we are not afraidbecause of our smile....
Together forever no matter what happens,and, with a smile,trust thateverything can be soved!
I think the cause is more complicated. I think, as a society, we put morepressure on our boys to succeedthan we do on our girls. I know men that stayhome and work in the home to support wives with careers,and it's hard. When I goto the Mommy-and-Me stuff and I see the father there, I notice that the othermommies don't play with him. And that's a problem, because we have to make it asimportant a job,because it's the hardest job in the world to work inside thehome, for people of both genders, if we're going to even things out and letwomen stay in the workforce. Studies show that households with equal earning andequal responsibility also have half the divorce rate.And if that wasn't goodenough motivation for everyone out there, they also have more — how shall I saythis on this stage?
i always think there is not enough time. for example, i have just taken athree-day holiday. but when i look back, i just feel that it’s only one day.there goes a proverb, “time is money”.
now i want to say, time is more precious than money, because when money isspent, we can earn some more again. however, when time is gone or lost, neverwill it return.
time goes without being noticed. the time for our study and work is usuallylimited. so i think we must make full use of our time. but it’s a pity that i amalways not aware of the importance of time until it’s too late.
so i think, i should get into the good habit of saving time because wastingtime is equal to wasting one’s life. do not put off what can be done today tilltomorrow!
The time of a date has different standard for boys and girls. Girls always like to be late for about ten minutes while boys always reach the destination on time. If the girls are earlier than the boys, then the situation will become awkward, it is not polite to let a girl wait for a boy. But sometimes girls are always late for more than half an hour, which annoys the boys. It is said that if you call a girl to ask her if she is on the way, then she will answer you that she just goes out of the house, the truth is that she is still in the house. Most girls are late for making up for a long time. It is considerate to be late for a date for a few minutes, but it is impolite to be late for much time.
I have many friends, and my best friend is my neighbor. He’ nameis Li Hua, he is eleven years old. He is tall. He likes playing football. Afterschool, we often play football together. He has a dog, he walks dog every day. Ilike to play with him.

我最好的朋友是王明。他是12岁。他总是与我玩笑。我喜欢和他呆在一起。那是因为他能帮助我。当我发现他说我悲伤或快乐,他总是听我的,他对我很好。他是非常聪明的。他总是帮助我的家庭作业。如果我有一个担心,不知道如何去做,他可以帮助我。他可以和大家做朋友。
Knowledge can be acquired from many sources. These include books, teachersand practical experience, and each has its own advantages. The knowledge we gainfrom books and formal education enables us to learn about things that we have noopportunity to experience in daily life. We can study all the places in theworld and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime, just by readingabout them in books. We can also develop our analytical skills and learn how toview and interpret the world around us in different ways. Furthermore, we canlearn from the past by reading books. In this way, we won't repeat the mistakesof others and can build on their achievements.
Practical experience, on the other hand, can give us more useful knowledge.It is said that one learns best by doing, and I believe that this is true,whether one is successful or not. In fact, I think making mistakes is the bestway to learn. Moreover, if one wants to make new advances, it is necessary toact. Innovations do not come about through reading but through experimentation.Finally, one can apply the skills and insights gained through the study of booksto practical experience, making an already meaningful experience moremeaningful. However, unless it is applied to real experiences, book knowledgeremains theoretical and, in the end, is useless. That is why I believe thatknowledge gained from practical experience is more important than that acquiredfrom books.
My favourite season is spring. Everything is very lively in the spring. Theflowers are blooming, the trees are growing and the grass is turning green. Ilike lying on the grass and enjoy the sun shine in the park in the spring. Wealso can fly a kite, have a picnic, go on a trip or climb the mountain, but Idon‘t like to do those things, because they will make me feel tired. Some peoplelike to go to the countryside, however I don‘t think it is a good place to gofor a rest. I don‘t like the other season, because they are not very warm:summer is too hot, winter is too cold. While autumn is cool, it isn‘t verybeautiful. Last year, I went to the Slender West Lake in Yang Zhou. First wetook a boat to travel down the lake, we saw the Qiong flowers on the bank, andthey were very beautiful. Then we visited the Five Kiosks Bridge, there werefive kiosks on the bridge, and every kiosk has a long history. We sit in thekiosk and took some photos. Last we went to the Fishing Platform.Why do peoplecall it ?Fishing Platform‘? Because the emperor called ?Qian Long‘ in QingDynasty visited it. We also fished in it. We had a good time in Yang Zhou.Anyway, my favourite season is spring
生活中如果有任何一个因素可以促进成功,那就是从挫折中受益的能力.我所了解的每一次达到的成功都是因为那个人能够对挫折进行分析,在下一次工作中真正得益.如果混淆挫折和失败,你就注定会真正失败.因为不是挫折使你失败,而是你自己拒绝从挫折中看到成功的方向和勇气.
挫折并不可耻.在每个取得成功的人的生活中,挫折是家常便饭.但你一定要能够面对挫折而不感到羞耻,能够分析它并了解失败的原因,否则挫折就是绝对的损失.换言之,挫折可以帮助解决它自身的起因.挫折不但可以为我们成功做好准备,而且没有任何东西可以在我们的内心激发起如此强烈的想要成功的欲望.如果你让一个婴儿抓住一根竿子,然后试着把竿子抽出来,孩子就会越抓越紧,直到他们整个重量都依附于此.每次你被击败的时候,正是这同样的反应会赋予你崭新的更为巨大的力量.
如果你能够利用挫折带来的这种力量,你就能够用它来完成远远超乎你能力的目标.
If there is any single factor that makes for success in living,it is theability to profit by defeat.Every success I know has been achieved because theperson was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his nextundertaking.
Confuse defeat with failure,and you are doomed indeed to failure.For itisn't defeat that makes you fail:it is your own refusal to see in defeat theguide and encouragement to success.
Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of.They are routine incidents in the lifeof every man who achieves success.But defeat is a dead loss unless you do faceit without humiliation,analyze it and learn why you failed.Defeat,in otherwords,can help to cure its own cause.Not only does defeat prepare us forsuccess,but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed.Ifyou let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away,he will cling more and moretightly until his whole weight is suspended.It is this same reaction whichshould give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated.
If you exploit the power which defeat gives,you can accomplish with it farmore than you are capable of.
The problem is that — let's say she got pregnant that day, that day — ninemonths of pregnancy, three months of maternity leave, six months to catch yourbreath — Fast-forward two years, more often — and as I've seen it — women startthinking about this way earlier — when they get engaged, or married, when theystart thinking about having a child, which can take a long time. One woman cameto see me about this. She looked a little young. And I said, "So are you andyour husband thinking about having a baby?" And she said, "Oh no, I'm notmarried." She didn't even have a boyfriend.

Honorable judges, ladies and gentleman, good morning.
I want you to tell me something. What’s the first thing that pops into yourmind when you hear the word faith, a sacred and heart-warming word that’ssupposed to remind you of all the beauties and goodness of life, the key thatused to keep us going when confronted with all sorts of hardships and obstacles.However, when I hear the word faith, the thing it reminds me of is so remote andintangible. In this rich and peaceful era, there aren’t as many disasters orwars, especially for us young people whose lives are much easier and wealthierthan our fathers’. So is faith gradually losing its significance in the humanworld nowadays?
Like many of others, I used to think of faith as of no importance at all,and I deemed myself as a faithless person. I thought I can live my lifeperfectly fine without intentionally grasping something as my faith. Until oneday I met an American Christian named John, who later became a very good friendof mine. John is an extremely faithful Christian, and he thinks of Jesus Christas his lord. He, as a pastor, tried to convert me into a Christian when we firstmet. So he lectured me with his extensive knowledge of history and philosophyevery time we hung out. In spite of his amazingly detailed desc ription of thehistory of Jesus, what really got me intrigued is not the story he told,instead, is John himself as probably the first and most faithful person I’ve metin my entire life. I can feel the sparks in his eyes when he talks aboutbiblical things, and I am so touched by the integrity of him when he says:”Jesus Christ is the ultimate pursuit of my life” without any hesitation ordoubt.
The more we got along, the more I became jealous of him, because he alwaysseems to be joyful and optimistic. When I ask him how he manages it, he said:”I’ve had bad days too, but I also know that God is with me. So I know that it’llall be okay.” Suddenly it occurred to me how lucky it is to have something youcan completely put your trust into, something that will bring you strength whenyour mind is weak, something that reminds you “ it’s not so bad” when you’refilled with sorrow, something that gives your existence significance and bringit up to a higher level. So I was literally converted, not into a Christian, notinto someone faithful either, but into someone who wants to be as faithful atleast.
That was the first time I am exposed to the power of faith. To put itsimple, your life is complete only if you have faith. You must find somethingimportant and significant in your life, your purpose, your pursuit, whatever youcall it. I’m not saying faith must relate to religion or God. It could beanything. It could be your career goal, your children, your lover, fellowship,or a certain kind of life style, anything, as long as you dare to trust yourlife in it with your heart of hearts.
Now I’m still faithless. I haven’t become a Christian or find what mattersto me most yet. But what John gave me is whole new perspective to see life. SoI’ll strive to really feel and touch the beauty in life and won’t take it forgranted. And that’s also what I encourage all of us to do. Keep looking for thefaith of your own, and when you do, you’ll know it’s all worth it.

The failure is the mother of success.But how many people are actually ableto grasp the mystery?
General speaking, people are afraid of failure.What should we fail toface?The key issues were to fail.We understand and transform the world, thedefeat was inevitable.Brave in face of failure is the only correct way tosuccess of our guide.We can sum up the lesson from failure.After many mistakes,we should be close to success and believe that failure is only temporary.Thefailure of the people tend to be alone, around on his support, even a comfortingword, can add to his great power.
In a word,failure are not terrible. Horrible is you don't have the courageto face defeat feeling!
In my 6 years of study and career, I encountered many setbacks. But thesesetbacks, no one can beat me, which has a setback let me the most imprint isengraved on my heart.
When I was reading the fifth grade, a day to the final exam, which made mefeel the hitherto unknown pressure and panic. I stayed at home all day, soon toenter the state, I put the book on the review of the knowledge points are readwas a long sigh of relief. The time flies, the exam is scheduled. This morning IChinese, English, maths exam this afternoon. Chinese book the look of the revieware so examination is very easy, English also did well in the exam, which mademe a little get dizzy with success. The afternoon of the math test I because ofhis carelessness several application problems originally very simple to thewrong, I kept saying to himself: "don't be afraid, just the wrong a few wordproblem buckle only buckle of more than a dozen hours, I get 80 points." When Iwas in comfort, but who would have thought I had only a 70 math, language 90.5points, only 77 points. When I saw the marks, immediately silly eye, let mereally want to cry but no tears, blame only themselves to blame be big withpride, thought he did well in the exam, and exam in a complete mess.
I took the papers on the way home, the sky seems to do the like, adownpour. The cold wind whistling blowing sand, sand falling rain, thunderrumble, sounded to me this is like a sad song, listen to my heart sour. Very noteasy to go home but did not dare go in, has been hovering in the doorway, hasnot entered. I saw dad saw my score be furious, constantly scolded me to hit me.Finally I have teeth pressed the doorbell, instead of seeing an angry face but abe courteous and accessible face. I really feel feel shy look said: "Mom, Igot......." To the back of the voice is more and more small, finally small likemosquitoes a "buzz" sound. "Needless to say, we all know." The mother saidquietly. I marveled: "how do you know? Don't you down?" Mother said: "I see youcome back late, call your teacher, the teacher put your grades said, and that wedon't hit you, teacher let you speak with him." I see light suddenly, theoriginal is the teacher to save my life, I hurried to answer the phone said:"thank you, teacher." "No thanks, I just want to tell you something." Theteacher said. Say what you want to say. I was quick to promise. "The sunshineafter the rain, do not experience wind and rain, how rainbow? If you understandthe meaning of this sentence, not afraid of anything like this today." Then theteacher hung up the phone.
Yeah! Do not experience wind and rain, how rainbow, life is probably noteverything is going smoothly, there will always be some ups and downs, as longas we dare to face and learn from it will not have any setbacks can beat us!
