Cross the Roads(过马路)

Every day some people are killed(死) while they are crossing the roads. Most of these people are old people and children. Old people are often killed because they can't see or hear very well. Children are killed because they are not careful. They forget to look and listen before they cross the roads.

A car or a bus can't stop quickly. If a car is going very fast, it will travel many meters before it stops. Some people don't always understand this. They think a car can stop in a few meters. It's difficult to know how fast a car is moving. The only way to cross the roads safely is to look both ways, right and left. Then if the roads are empty(空的), you can cross them.

A young man went to visit a sage(智者)living deep in the mountains for the wisdom(智慧)of life. “Excuse me! Could you please tell me what is the most important day in our lives?” the young man asked. “The most important day in our lives is today,” the sage replied calmly.

“Why?” The young man felt more than surprised. “Is it because today is a great festival or there was a great event happening?” “No. Nothing special has happened today. Today is very important because today is the only thing we own. No matter how memorable(值得怀念的)yesterday is, it went away, no matter how bright tomorrow may be, it is yet to come, but no matter how simple today is, it is really at our hands. So work hard to celebrate the greatest festival in life. It is: Today!”

The young man still wanted to ask something, but the sage stopped him and said, “When we are talking about the meaning of today, we have missed a lot of it.” The young man agreed and then went down the mountain.

Actually today is the only time and luck we have. Therefore, what we should do now is to forget yesterday and tomorrow to celebrate the greatest festival by holding today!
