One young person, who was well educated, went for a job as a manager in a big company. The president did the final 1 .

He discovered the youth was 2 and felt satisfied. Then the president asked who paid for his school fees. The youth answered, "My mother did it. She worked as a clothes 3."

The president requested the youth to 4 his hands. So the youth did. They were smooth. Then he asked, "Have you ever 5 your mother wash the clothes before?" The youth answered, "Never, my mother always wanted me to 6."

"Go and clean your mother's hands when you go back today, and then 7 me tomorrow morning," the president said at last.

The youth felt his chance of getting the job was high, so when he went back, he happilyrequested his mother to let him clean her hands. However, his tears fell 8 he cleaned his mother's hands slowly. It was the first time he had 9 that his mother's hands were so wrinkled (布满皱纹的). After that, the youth didn't say a word and washed all the remaining clothes for his mother10. That night, Mother and Son talked for a very long time, longer than any talk before.

The next11, the youth went to the president's office. The president noticed the tears in the youth's eyes and asked, "Please tell me how you 12 about helping your mother." The youth said, "Number One, I know now what appreciation is. Without my mother, I wouldn't be successful today. Number Two, by helping my mother, I realize how 13 it is to get something done. Number Three, I've come to realize the 14 of family relationship."

The president said, "You are 15. This is what I'm looking for to be my manager."

Last week was Road Safety Week at Jason's school. All the students had to take part in a talk on road safety, which was given by a police officer. The following is what the police officer said:

"Most traffic accidents are because of the drivers' carelessness. A frequent cause of traffic accidents is speed. Some people drive too fast. This means that it is difficult for them to stop quickly. You need to remember this when you are crossing the street or walking along the sidewalk."

"It's not only drivers to cause accidents, however, people on foot—pedestrians, and bicycle riders often cause accidents, too. Pedestrians sometimes walk out into the street without looking. You should always look on both sides before stepping into the street."

"Do any of you ride a bike? Bicycle riders can cause accidents by changing directions suddenly or without warning other road users. Before you turn left, for example, you should make sure there aren't any cars or trucks behind you. You should not turn until the street is clear."

"The rules of the road are very simple. If we learn them and obey them, we should not have accidents any more."

What you need:

·Sugar

·Cold water in a clear glass


 

·Hot water in a clear glass

·Spoon for stirring (搅拌)

What you do:

·Make sure the glasses have the same amount of water.

·Put an amount of sugar into the cold water and stir it with the spoon until the sugar disappears. Repeat this process ( remembering to count the amount of sugar you put into the water) until the sugar stops dissolving (溶解). At this point, the sugar starts to gather on the bottom of the glass rather than dissolving.

·Write down how much sugar you could dissolve in the cold water.

·Repeat the same process in the hot water, and then compare the number of sugar dissolved in each glass. Which dissolved more? What's happening?

What's happening?

The cold water isn't able to dissolve as much sugar as the hot water. Sugar dissolves in the hot water three times as fast as in the cold water. But why? Another name for the liquids inside the glasses is a "solution". When this solution can no longer dissolve sugar, it becomes a "saturated (饱和的) solution". This means that sugar starts forming on the bottom of the glass.

The reason why the hot water dissolves more is that it has faster moving molecules(分子) which are spread further apart than the molecules in the cold water. With bigger gaps between the molecules in the hot water, more sugar molecules can fit in between them.

The daughter shouted as soon as she entered the door, "This world is too unfair!" It turned out that she was talking to her deskmate while having a math class. She was caught by the teacher. And finally she and her deskmate were both punished.

"It's fair. I said." That's not fair! There were clearly several classmates who were talking at the time, but the teacher stared at us and only punished us," she said angrily.

I knew that my daughter cared about this matter. I asked her, "Should you be punished for speaking in class?" She nodded, but said at the same time, "It is unfair for me that the teacher didn't punish other students who spoke!" I told her, "Don't talk about others. Just look at yourself. Was it wrong to punish you?" She lowered her head and answered, "No." I said, "That's fair! You know what the price of speaking in class is. You did it and got the punishment. So it's fair. The teacher didn't punish others, because she could choose to forgive, but it didn't mean unfair. "My daughter could not understand. But she was not as angry as the moment she entered the door.

People are often like this. Standing and looking at themselves, they are very clear about what they are doing. They also know what their rewards and punishments should be, but the unfair mentality (心理) is that when they look up at others. The feeling about unfair comes from comparing with others. The most important thing is to understand fairness in a deeper way, not only from your point of view!

We all have problems and barriers (障碍) that prevent us from moving into new areas. When someone meets the problem which he can't get over, he usually turns away and starts walking along a different path. Unluckily, soon he may get into another similar one. In this way, his life stays inside the same old cycles, in which he is unlikely to make progress or keep learning.

While others deal with problems by loving them instead of hating them. The word" love" means accepting your problems. The more we deny (否定) a problem, the stronger it seems to become. Only when we accept the fact can we find the useful ways to deal with it.

Suppose one of your barriers is taking a final exam. You fear that you will forget everything that you have remembered. One way of dealing with it is to pretend (假装) that you are not afraid—tell yourself " I'm not going to be scared "and then try to force a smile on your face.

But compared with that, loving your fear actually works better. You just need to say to yourself," I'm scared. But I'm going to take it easy. It is not only a problem, but also a chance for me to make progress. "By doing that, you allow yourself to be afraid and you can have a right understanding to your problem. You welcome your problem and face it in an active way. So there's no doubt that you are more likely to overcome it completely.

It is impossible to live a life without problems. Loving them doesn't mean hiding them. Instead, it means admitting the truth about them. This helps us take effective (有效的) actions, which can free us from the problems once and for all.

Do you want to buy things that are new or second—hand? These days, more and more people want to buy second-hand things. Second-hand things are not only cheap and valuable but also environmental—friendly.

These years, people often buy far more than they need. At the same time, more people are interested in minimalism (极简主义). So the trade among second-hand things is becoming more and more popular. It helps develop the online trading platforms (平台) as well. In those second-hand platforms, people can trade almost all kinds of used products.

Things in the second-hand platforms are much cheaper than new ones, so people can save a lot of money. For example, a new car may cost much money, but you can have a second-hand car with a lower price.

Using second-hand things is also good for the environment. Many things can be recycled many times. So it's a better choice to sell the things you don't need as second-hand products instead of throwing them. It can bring the environment less pollution.

People can even find something special and valuable. These things are no longer made nowadays. For example, some people like to buy some old things, including watches, clothes and others. These things often go back 30 years or even more. But as long as they're good, people can still use them.

What kinds of second-hand things will you buy?

It was a winter morning. I took a walk in the nearest park. On the road, there were people of all ages.

I noticed there was a crowd in a corner when I went  (close) and pushed my way to the front. Then I saw an old man  (lie) on the grass. A young woman in her early (twenty) next to him was crying. I could not understand why people there were doing nothing.

Suddenly,  old voice seemed to call me. It was my grandfather speaking     

me as he did many years ago. "Be strong, my boy." he seemed to say. Therefore, I moved forward to the two  (help) people in the middle of the crowd. I asked some people around to pick  (he) up carefully. My voice was loud,  attracted people's attention and they took action  (quick). Soon the old man and the young woman  (send) to a nearby hospital.
