you practiced over and over again; you wanted it more than anyone; you

studied the hardest, but in the end, you still didnt succeed. each time you ask

yourself, what happened and why. what i might suggest is that did you have a

wrong attitude?

positive attitude helps us cope with the daily affairs of life more easily.

it brings optimism into our life, and makes it easier to avoid worry and

negative thinking. if we adopt it as a way of life, it will bring constructive

changes into our life, and makes us happier, brighter and more successful. with

a positive attitude we will see the bright side of life, become optimistic and

expect the best to happen. it is certainly a state of mind that is well worth

developing and strengthening.

so next time, you will practice just as much, still want it just as much,

will study just as hard. what will be different is that you will also put on a

smile. a positive attitude might just be the one thing that you need to

succeed!

Since I go to school, there is naturally that I need to take the exams. At

first, I am afraid of the score, because I know I always not the best students.

My mother tells me that she doesn’t care about my score, she wants me to do my

best, no matter what the result is. Since then, I feel not distressed, all I

need to do is to try my best.

It is natural that difficulties hide in every corner of our life,so we have

to face them at times.Whatever we have undergone in our life, we shouldnt

complain about it. We may get a lot or lose so much in our life journey, but

keeping a positive attitude should always be together with us. Nothing can

defeat us if we are confident and diligent. Just as saying goes, God is equal to

everyone. As he closes the door, he will also open a window for us.

Many of us have seen a picture on the Internet of a man with a nice smile

is struggling along with the aid of a stick because of losing one of his

feet,and another man is sitting on the ground without shoes on his feet,looking

anxious and depressed.How different the expressions flitting across their faces

are!At the bottom of the drawing says”Because I have no shoes,I keep complaining

until I find another man who has lost one of his feet.”

What an impressive drawing it is in revealing different attitudes toward

life!A persons attitude towards life is very important, it determines your

life, which path you are taking and how your life will become. if you are a

person with very strong positive outlook, no matter what difficulties you

encounter, you will always look at the bright side of life and never give up

easily. Take Thomas Edison as an example.Before inventing the electric bulb,he

had tried thousands of materials for lamp filament,but failed.Despite others’

laughing at him.he said,”I am not a failure,at least I have proved these

materials are not fit for filament.”Before long he invented electric bulb.

The most frequent example you see are those patients or people that are

handicapped or suffering from some type of illness like cancer. They do not give

up any glimpse of hope and continue fighting till they their last breathe. Even

those very determined handicapped,they do not blame the world for their disable.

Instead, they are contented and blessed with all the rest the have, their family

, friends and those who support them greatly. Those handicapped with negative

attitude towards life will feel that the world is unfair and they life in misery

and always feel that they are unless and unwanted.

All in all,it is our attitudes that have changed everything in our life and

help us to pull through all hardships.So we should strive to develop a positive

attitude toward life and the world.It is convinced that only when we are

equipped with optimism and confidence can we achieve success in the future.

I am happy .I have my own room . Look!This is my room.It’s small but

clean.There is a desk and a bed.There are some dolls on my bed .There are two

chairs. There is a bookshelf，too.My bookshelf has two layers. I put the

story—books on the first layer. I put the other kinds books on the second layer.

I often clean it .There are two big windows. On the windows，you can see some

nice flowers.I like to watch them grow. And there is a balcony outside the room.

I love my room very much.Can you introduce your room?

Dear Frank:

I am terribly sorry to tell you that I have lost the valuable book you were

so kind to lend me last week. I read it everyday and intended to finish it next

month. Last night when I came to my room, it was nowhere to be found. I will try

to recover it as soon as possible. If I fail to find it, I will get a new book

for you.

But I am afraid it can never take the place of the old one. Old books are

like old friends. Once lost, they can never be replaced. They are connected with

cherished associations which the new ones can never have. And for this

irrecoverable loss, I am to blame. I was so careless with my things. This is a

warning to me to be more careful in the future.

Yours truly,

Tom

Today, when I go home after school, a cat follows me as I near my home. It

is very small and it has white hair. When I look at her for the first time, my

heart is melting. What a lovely cat. I want to take her home, but I couldn’t,

because she needs to come back to her mother. Finally, a boy comes to find her

and takes her home.

Dear Sales Manager,

I, the undersigned, am a senior in the Computer Science Department of Tsinghua University. I ordered a book which is entitled Practical Writing and Reading for NETEM by Wang Li on December 20th, 2004.

However after reading the book on January 10th, 2005, I found that it is a pirated one so that I write to you for complaint.

The book has brought me some negative effects. To begin with, much of my valuable time and energy have been wasted in reading the book since it is quite hard to identify many words in the book. What’s more, I have not benefited from reading the book since some of keys to the exercises are misprinted.

I would like to be informed whether you can refund me the money or change another book for me. I am looking forward to your early reply.

Sincerely Yours

Dear Kate:

Excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “Robinson Crusoe”

which I read through with great interest. I had finished reading the book and

was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. Never having seen the

book, She was so interested in it that I had to retain it longer. However, I

hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will

overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner. Thanking you again for the

loan.

Sincerely yours,

I like holidays because I have enough time to relax. Last year, my father

and I went to Singapore by plane, there is a beautiful place, the four seasons

pleasant climate, there are many Chinese immigrants in Singapore, and there are

lots of Chinese food, like noodles, dumplings, rice, very delicious, we shopping

there, watching the scenery, and taste a lot of delicious food. It was a very

enjoyable holiday.

Someone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a

book, whose pages are infinite”. I don’t know who wrote these words, but I’ve

always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to

be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap

a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.

一些人说“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”我不知道谁写了这些话，但是我一直很喜欢它，因为它提醒了我，我们能够创造我们想要的未来。我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子，我们将会丰收。如果我们的种子很差，有很多草籽，收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种，什么收获也没有。

We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningful question. To

answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Youth

is not a time of life, it’s a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks,

red lips or supple knees. It’s the matter of the will. It’s the freshness of the

deep spring of life.

我们是年轻的。“怎样度过青春?”这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它，我首先要问“从‘青春’这个词中你能理解到什么?”青春不是人生的一个时期，而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，。青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

A poet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild

flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several

days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I’d like

to share it with all of you. Let’s show our right palms. We can see three lines

that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What

about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let’s

make a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tell

me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.

一位诗人说“从一粒沙看世界，从一朵花看天堂，把无限放在你的手掌，永恒在一刹那里收藏”。几天前，我有了一个听讲座的机会，从中我学到了很多东西。现在，我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手，我们可以看到手掌中的展示我们的爱，事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短，那你们的呢?我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的，让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿?我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿?告诉我!是的，它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。

We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go

better itself. Don’t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the

past, we’ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We’ve learnt that

we can’t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn’t

mean you don’t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way.

Failure doesn’t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.

我们所有人都希望未来能比过去更美好，但是未来能自己变得更好。不要因为结束而哭泣，微笑吧，为你的曾经拥有。从过去来看，生活是艰苦的，但我们是更坚强。我们知道我们不能选择感觉，但是我们能选择和它相关的东西。失败并不意味着你不拥有成功，它只意味着你应该用另一种方式去做这件事。失败并不意味着你应该放弃，只意味着你应该更加努力。

As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the

first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing

we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we

give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let’s be the

owners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”

正如我在前面所说的“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”过去的已经过去，无论我们无力改变，但是未来却在我们前方。相信“我们给了世界什么，世界也将给我们”。并且从今天起，让我们一起做我们自己的主人，一起大声说出“世界是我们的，未来是我们的。”

Dear Miss Liang,

I am writing to thank you for your hard work for me. With your help, I make

great progress in my study. A year ago, my study was bad and I didn’t want to

learn, but you never give me up. You told me that I was clever. As long as I

work hard, I would be great. In this year, you cared much about my study and

helped me a lot. When I made mistakes, you always pointed them out and helped me

to correct. Now, my study is much better than before, and I want to express my

gratitude to you. Hope you everything goes well.

Sincerely yours,

Lily

亲爱的梁老师：

Laba rice porridge was first introduced to China in the Song Dynasty about

900 years ago.

Buddhism was well accepted in the areas inhabited by the Han Chinese， who

believed that Sakyamuni the first Buddha and founder of the religion， attained

enlightenment on the eighth day of the twelfth month. Sutras were chanted in the

temples and rice porridge with beans， nuts and dried fruit was prepared for the

Buddha. With the passing of time the custom extended， especially in rural areas

where peasants would pray for a plentiful harvest in this way.

There is， however， another touching story： When Sakyamuni was on his way

into the high mountains in his quest for understanding and enlightenment， he

grew tired and hungry. Exhausted from days of walking， he fainted away by a

river in India. A shepherdess found him there and fed him her lunch -- porridge

made with beans and rice. Sakyamuni was thus able to continue his journey.

During the years of suffering, a super hero called Maze was facing the war

of the Americans. One day he was planning a vacation, that was going to be

amazing; when a big giant octopus attacked the whole city…

He had no choice but to stop his vacation, and to stop the octopus. He was

transforming into a big octopus, and ready to battle Maze. Maze was ready; he

got his sword and shield ready for battle. When he came, everybody cheered for

him; the octopus was not very happy…

He used his legs and arms and kicked Maze right up into the air. Maze said

to the people; “I have a plan, but I’ll need you guys to help me with it;”

everybody agreed to help Maze, and so they all gathered around to listen to

Maze’s plan. He said to the people, “I need a person, to help and pull a string;

that way, when the giant octopus reached me, you guys just pull the string, and

it will trip; then I will need a guy that is good at tying knots, that is when

the giant octopus trips, that guy will tie his up and give it to me; then rest

of the problems I will deal with it…”

Everybody agreed to his magnificent plan, and so they got to work. First

Maze went to get a very long string, and gave it to two people that were very

good at strength to pull it, instead of pulling it let us make it that Maze’s

plan was not at length that good, for the octopus knew all about his plan; and

so could very easily pass the test…

When they failed, Maze thought about this problem; they all knew that the

octopus it always listening to their plans. Now what? Well since Maze could tell

the other people his plan, he had decided to show them his plan. He drew it on a

piece of white paper, and showed it to the people, he made some moves of how it

was done; they all understood, but the giant octopus didn’t. His plan was the

same, but the giant octopus didn’t know it.

He decided to be careful, but he couldn’t, because the string was

invisible; instead of the string part, Maze changed it into plastic paper; that

way the giant octopus couldn’t see what they were up to; this plan was good, but

let us see how it ends.

Then two men were pulling the plastic, the plastic paper broke; and so

maybe Maze didn’t think it all the way through. He changed a magnificent plan:

First of all, some people distract the giant octopus; and then Maze tied his

legs and arms; and threw him into the ocean, where he was gone and 100 percent

drowned with his legs and arms tied behind his back.

And so Maze saved the day once again, and when his mom and dad returned

home; they were very proud of him. But maze was still sad, his mom and dad

asked; “What is the matter Maze?” “Well, I did save the day Hooray! But I still

didn’t get a chance of relaxing like little children, they were like holidays!”

then his mother and father decided to hold him a holiday celebration, and lived

happily ever after.

The octopus did return, and it was all to his mom the scientist. Maze did

defeat him again and again; until the octopus was tired, he knew that he was not

the guy to beat Maze, so he changed his mind and left the city and gave lived to

Maze’s fans in peace.

The end…

I have watched a lot of cartoons. They are part of my life. Every day, I

will wait for the cartoon time and discuss with my friends. We share our

opinions after we watch the cartoons. I like the classic cartoons that show our

traditional culture, and I learn a lot. Though I grow up, I will never forget

the childhood memory.

The lucky-number has become increasingly popular in daily life of modern

sociality. For example, the number eight means big money which people like most,

while the number four means death.

Some people believe lucky numbers so deeply that they will afford a

telephone with numbers without four and others which is bad in their mind. They

argue that the lucky-number really can bring good luck, and, at least, no

evidence testifies they can not.

As far as I am concerned, there is no such relationship between the numbers

and lucky, for the reason that numbers their self are given certain meaning for

the purpose of application of mathematic. And, in addition, man should not

depend on lucky which, in their mind, the numbers gives them.

Dear Sir,

I noticed an ad. In the paper today you said you were looking for people to join your expedition team. It sounded as if it might be fun so Im writing to say Id like to come along.

About myself: I left school at 16 because I wanted to earn a bit of money. After that I got a few part-time jobs as a waiter, etc. But I didnt stick to any of them for long. Recently Ive been doing a bit of hitch-hiking round Europe so Ive had some experience of traveling the hard way which should come in handy on the expedition youre planning. By the way, Im a great guitarist so I can keep you all amused round the campfire at night.

Let me know when I can call in for a chat about dates and other details, etc.

Yours,

David Smith

My grandfather likes to play Ping-pong so much. He will play it for an hour

everyday. Sometimes he asks me to play with him, and I refuse because I want to

play computer games. But recently I want to experience this sport, so I practice

it with my grandfather. I find that I fall in love with Ping-pong. It makes me

feel the energy.

Some people often say that gold and silver are the most valuable things the

world.However,I have my reservations.In my submission,reading is more valuable

than anything else.It’s well known that book is the quintessence of human

wisdom.Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.

Sometimes our daily life can start to feel dull, dry or depressing — I know

it, you know it, we all know it. At times like this, I like to dive into a good

fiction book for a much-needed escape into another world, where I can forget

about whatever problems are stressing me out. Whether you want to travel to the

land of the Hobbits, a galaxy far away or a tropical destination in a steamy

romance novel is up to you. You’ll come back refreshed after your mini-vacation

to a fresh and exciting place in the world of words.

Books are our friends. They introduce us different kinds of knowledge. They

lead us down the road to success.

Books are our teachers. They teach us troth, science, literature, and

philosophy of life. Besides, they increase our knowledge, enlarge our

experience,strengthen our character and do many other things which we can not do

without them.

Books tell us what is good and what is evil. And only books can tell the

good from the bad.

Therefore to read more books is the best policy for our young students.

Reading introduced me to concepts like mindful eating, relaxation

exercises, and the importance of loving yourself. If I didn’t read, I wouldn’t

even be aware of these ideas, which have defined my entire coaching philosophy.

If you don’t read, you could be missing out on intriguing ideas that would

likewise re-define your personal purpose or business philosophy.

As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many

other useful things. They increase our knowledge, broaden our minds and

strengthen our character. In other words, they are our good teachers and wise

friends. This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more

books.

Reading is a good thing, but we must pay great attention to the choice of

books. It is true that we can derive benefits from good books. However, bad

books will do us more harm than good.

However, in current days,many of us spend most of the leisure time in

playing games or surfing the internet,instead of reading. its a pity to find it

less and less our students are interesting in reading,or have formed a habit of

reading.So,in order to revive reading,this beneficial activity,wed better take

action right now.lets read together,learn together and grow !

One is never too old to learn.No matter at what time we realize the

importance of reading,we can enjoy it during the rest of our life and finally we

will see that it is rewarding to do so.
