someone else.
"I wish my parents were more understanding."
"I have such a bad Chemistry teacher!"
"My friends are so boring and self-centred. They make my life worse and worse."
Blame! Blame! Blame!
It seems natural to sing this self-pitying song, but the truth is, if you don't like your life, you should do
something about it. No one else knows exactly how you feel or what you need. No one can read your
mind correctly. You are the only one with the power(能力) to check your life, and if you want it to be
different, you can change what you're doing. This means asking.. "What do I need? What do I want to
do?" instead of trying to meet others' needs. For example, try to decide how you want to spend your
evening instead of asking somebody else for advice. We teach other people how we want to be treated.
If we don't think of our own needs, no one else will either.
When you're in trouble, don't give away your power to decide how you feel about yourself. Choose
how you want to think and act(行动). Other people can't make you unhappy or angry. They only act in
their own way and then it's up to you to decide how you will respond(回应). For example, your friends
go out to lunch withou t you. You feel angry. How are you going to act? You may blame your friends.
"They're not kind. Who needs them anyway?" or you may tell your friends how you feel, listen to their
explanation(解释), and let them know you'd like to be invited next time.
When you decide everything in your own way, you're getting hold of your own life and shaping it
according to your tastes and feelings. You can choose to be happy, to make friends and to build an
interesting life. When you blame others for what is or isn't happening in your life, you have stopped
growing or learning.
One of the most important rules is that you can never change another person by your direct action.
The only person you have the right and power to change is yourself. Once you change, the other person
then has something different to respond to and change is possible. If you want change in your life, begin
with yourself...put love into your power to take action.

We Want the Best! We did a survey of things that interest young people today. This is what they told us. Most of the cafes in town are good, but The Turk’s Delight, the newest cafe to open here, is the most popular. It is also the most expensive, but the coffee is the best and the chairs are the most comfortable. What’s more, the music they play in the cafe is the best. The cell phone that everyone wants to buy is the V-Phone. This is the coolest phone around because it is like a computer. It has the most extras. You can take photos, make videos, check your e-mail, and of course, make phone calls. And what video game is the best today? Well, everyone agrees it is Viper Boy. It has the best graphics (图画), the most realistic (栩栩如生的) sound and the most interesting story. | ||||||||||||

We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live green life. Remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle. Reduce means"use less". Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad. Reuse means"use again". Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again. Recycle means"change things into something else". Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees. | |||||||||||||
