When you have a cold, you must be unhappy because your body becomes hot, and there are pains (疼痛) all over. You don’t want to work, you stay in bed, feeling terrible.

What makes you ill? It’s germs. Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can’t find them with your eyes but you can see them with a microscope (显微镜). They are very small and there could be hundreds of them in or on a very small thing.

Germs are always found in dirty water. When you look at dirty water under the microscope, you can see them in it.

Germs are found not only in water. They are also found in air and dust (灰尘). If you cut your finger (手指), and if some of the dust goes into the finger, it will become big and red, and you will have much pain in it. Sometimes germs will go into your body and you will have pain everywhere.

In my math class, Mr. Black drew a man standing in the middle of a circle. To make it more interesting, he drew things like a house a car and a few friends inside the circle.

He asked us, “Can anyone tell me what this is?” Jack said, “The world?” Mr. Black said, “That’s close. This is your Comfort Zone (舒适区域). Inside your circle you have all the things that are important to you—your home, your family, your friends, and your job. People feel that inside this circle they are safe from any danger. Can anyone tell me what happens when you step out of this circle?”

Mr. Black then drew an arrow (箭头) pointing from the man to the outside of the circle. He went on saying, “When you leave your Comfort Zone, you will face the world that you are not comfortable with. The result is that you will learn something that you do not know and gain (获得) more than what you have.” He then drew a bigger circle around the first circle, and added a few new things like more friends, etc, into it.

The story tells us that if you stay inside your Comfort Zone, you will never be able to learn more. When you go out of your Comfort Zone, perhaps you will be afraid, challenge (挑战) your mind and grow to be stronger, and so become a better person.
