Everybody is driven by something.It could be money problems,fear,emotional needs and many other things.

Many of us are driven by love for money and the things we can buy with it.We think it will make us happier,more important,or more secure(安全的).But it's a dream that never comes true,because no matter how much we get,we still want a little more.The problem is that we expect money to give us happiness that lasts,but it's simply not made to do that.Just ask all the rich millionaires who have everything money can buy.They still have unhappy marriages(婚姻)and families.They'll tell you that money can't buy happiness that lasts.Remember that a man without money is poor,but a man who has just money alone is even poorer.

Money can't make us more important either,because no matter how expensive our clothes,car,or house is,we're still the same person.The most valuable things in life are not things you can get with money.

What’s driving you? What do you love and live for? Is it what you really want in life? Just think for a minute.

Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn’t around? Here’s our advice to you-- and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.

It’ s hard when a best friend isn’t around—maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel left out at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has his or her friends. But remember, there’s always room for more friends.

Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you’d like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation (欣赏) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When you’re at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in.

If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help—and pretty soon, you’ll have one, or two, or even more new friends.

You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other, you can share something you didn’t have before he or she left: You can introduce him or her to your new friends!

1.Which of the following can explain the expression “feel left out”?

A.Feel homesick.                         B.Feel lonely.

C.Leave home alone.                      D.Be hungry.

2.According to the writer, some kids feel lonely at break because they    .

A.have trouble with their studies

B.don’t have their best friends around

D.developing new friendship

4.Some kids need help from teachers to make friends because    .

A.they miss their old friends a lot

Even if you are naturally shy, these three tricks will help you to quickly build a new social circle in any new city.

1. Take pictures

One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or a party is that it gives you an excuse to get in touch with the person later. Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves, and it’s very easy after taking a picture to say “If you’d like I can email it to you”. This can be the seed that leads to new connections.

2. Eat alone in public

You might feel self-conscious eating by yourself but it has an important benefit: you are much easier to approach(接近) when you are alone. People may be afraid of disturbing you or being rude if you talk with someone else. Bring a book or newspaper to read. Plus, having an interesting book with you will give others an excuse tostart a conversation if they’ve read it.

3. Join a class, sports team, or club

Yoga, salsa dancing, volleyball, Toastmasters (a public speaking club), a class for work, etc. Choose a new hobby or continue an old one!

These are all great places to meet new people, primarily because you will be made to see the same people over and over again in the class. You will automatically make friends with them if you have a common interest and are made to see each other again.
