There are only three important days in everyone’s life and two of them are the ones that you don't need to worry about. Serigne Fallou Mbacke, a man of God, who lived in Senegal (West Africa) between 1888 and 1968, used to say, “The day is today, it is the only day, the past is gone and will never come back and the future belongs to God.”

Harriet Beecher Stowe, 1811—1896, author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, once said almost the same thing, “The past, the present, and the future are really one: they are today.”

We all know that many people spend one half of their days regretting for the past, and the other half worrying about the future, leaving no time to enjoy the present when everything happens. How can such people get ahead in life? People all over the world have made countless discussions on the subject but it does not seem to make a difference. Most of us are still everywhere but in the present.

As the saying goes, if you do what everybody does, you will get what everybody gets! Make a difference, and live in the present. It will help you achieve more, become a better person and live a happier life, a life without worries.

Today is all you have. There is no guarantee ( 保证 )that you will live to see tomorrow and there is not a thing you can change about the past. Dennis Waitley who is a speaker and author puts it so beautifully in one of his books: The past is a cancelled check, the future is a promissory note ( 期 票 ), but the present, the present is liquid cash.

Always remember that today is a gift and that is the reason why it is called the present.

1.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A.The future belongs to God. B.No one can change the past.

C.Living in today will help you achieve more. D.We are sure that we will live to see tomorrow.

2.Who described the three important days as "check, note and cash"?

A.The writer. B.Serigne Fallou Mbacke.

C.Harriet Beecher Stowe. D.Dennis Waitley.

3.Why is today called the present according to the passage?

A.Because today is a gift.

B.Because people are always worrying about today.

C.Because people are always' worrying about the future.

D.Because people have made countless discussions on the subject.

4.Which of the following words can best describe the author's attitude towards "today"?

A.Unconcerned. B.Negative. C.Favorable. D.Doubtful.
