I first had physics lessons when I was in Grade Eight some years ago. In class, I 1that there wasn’t a Nobel (诺贝尔) Prize winner from China. That made me sad, and I decided to change (改变) it. 2after that, I got up early in the morning. I turned on the light and took out a physics book. Then I started 3quietly. I worked so hard because I had a great 4— one day, I would be the first 5person to win the Nobel Prize in physics. Later on, I found physics at school too easy for me. I wanted to learn 6, so I made a reading plan and started to find answers to more difficult problems.
Now I am a top student in physics. I won the first prize in the national physics competition last month. And I am happy to be closer to my dream after a few 7hard work. Of course, 8I have some problems. My classmates always 9me when they are talking about fashion (时尚) or pop stars, because I know 10about them. “Well, that doesn’t matter too much,” I tell myself. “They don’t know much about physics , but I won’t laugh at them.”

Last summer Mike found a swimming4near his house. The lessons did not cost very5, and Mike began going to the school at every end of the week and having6. Now he is a good swimmer.
Last week a little boy said to him,“You’re a very good swimmer. How do7learn to swim so well?”
“I’m not good at all,”Mike said and he smiled.“8I’m in the water, I say to myself, There are9fishes behind me! Then I’m very afraid, and I10quickly.”

Once there was a king who told some of his people to dig a pond (池子).The king then told his people that one person1each family had to bring a glass of milk during the night and put it into the pond. So, by the morning, the pond should be2of milk.
After 3the order, everyone went home. As one man prepared his milk, he thought that since everyone was bringing milk, he would just 4a glass of water and put that into the pond instead. 5it was dark at night, no one would notice it, so he quickly went and put the water into the pond and6home.
In the morning, the king went to visit the pond. To his surprise, the pond was only filled with water! What happened? Yes! Everyone had the same idea7that man. They all thought, “I don’t have to waste my milk. Someone else will do it.”
Dear friends, when you plan to help poor people or people in trouble, do not think that8will take care of it.9, it starts with you. If you don’t do it, no one else will, so change yourself and make a10.

In the sea there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones. We call them coral(珊瑚) islands.
A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land with trees, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is open to the water. There is a little round lake inside the island.
If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You may think they are flowers.
If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each of these holes a very small sea animal has lived. These sea animals make the coral.
They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher and higher. At last it grew out of the water.
Then the sea brought to it small trees and something else. After some years, these things changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds to this earth. Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island. The little seeds grew. In a few years there were plants all over the island. In a few more years there were trees growing there.
So you see, these islands were built little by little. The workers were very small. Don’t they teach us a lesson? Can you think what the lesson is?

※Ask your parents once a day, "Is there anything I can do for you?"  Most of the time they will probably say no, or give you something that will take a few minutes to complete. Your parents will love this and see you as a very cooperative(可合作的) person. When this happens, they will probably be more cooperative with you. You could also surprise them by doing something they don't make you do. They'll tell everyone you are the best possible son or daughter and, what's more, they will believe it.

Not long ago, I opened an interesting e-mail from Jennifer, a friend of mine. “I’ve realized I want to be around people who make me happy,” she wrote, “I’ve been seeing how I feel after communicating with different people and making a mental list of who I feel good about. And you’re on my list.”
Then she invited me — and 11 other women— to a “Movie Night” to be held every six weeks at her house. We’d chat, eat, and watch feel-good movies. She made it clear in her invitation that there was no stress to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful! I e-mailed her back immediately. I was in.
Later, Jennifer told me she had some puzzled reactions to her invitation. Though all the women were willing to join, some said they didn’t see themselves as cheerful people. “I’ve told them they didn’t have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them because they made me feel happy,” she says.
Research shows that gatherings such as Jennifer’s make sense. In a US study, researchers measured(测量) the happiness of 4739 people at regular intervals (间隔) over 20 years. The study found that a person’s happiness depends on(取决于) the happiness of people they connect with. Amazingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends’ friends! And those good feelings seem to be the most contagious (传染性的) among friends of the same sex.
“People with more supportive friends are less likely to develop sadness,” says Dr Toupey Luft, a psychologist in Penticyon, British Columbia. “Though you can’t choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive(乐观的) relationships to your social circle. Here’s how…
