12．What he said mustn't be true.so don't believe him．——青夏教育精英家教网—

4．Most students，when asked about their ideal graduation gift，would probably reply，"A car"，or"Money for a deposit on a house"．Cai Kaiyuan，21，made a different choice．As a graduation gift to himself，he decided to work as a volunteer teacher in a remote village in Tibet．
Cai，a senior majoring in electrical engineering at Hunan Railway Professional Technology College，originally planned to cycle from Sichuan to Tibet．During his journey，Cai's idea for a different graduation gift to himself began to take shape．"I did not know beforehand what the journey would mean to me．I just want to gain a unique experience and have pleasure in appreciating the view there，"he said．
It turned out cycling on a plateau （高原） was extremely challenging．And it has kept changing his outlook on life．Cai's fingers even became frostbitten while cycling up a 5008-meter-high mountain，where temperatures often dropped to 18below zero．At night，the ice covered the road and he fell off his bike three times．The lack of oxygen made him feel dizzy and weak．"At the most serious moment，I felt that my life wason the line，"said Cai．
However，he also gained something unexpected．At Ya'an，a city in Sichuan，he met a group of tourists who are also university students．A girl called Wu Ling told him that she planned to work as a teacher in a primary school in Tibet after her journey．He was impressed by the idea as she looked slender and weak．
It was not until he reached a family-run hotel in Shigatse that Cai's spirits began to rise．The hotel manager's two daughters enjoyed talking with him．The kids asked about his experiences on his trip，and showed him the beautiful local lakes．"They told me that they always liked to talk to guests，as they wanted to improve their Mandarin，"he said，"Their parents and many locals can only speak Tibetan．"
Cai was touched by the girls'story．Their situation is tough and the local people have little chance to learn Mandarin because the schools are short of teachers．"I want to do something to improve the situation for kids like them，"said Cai．His parents finally gave their agreement and his teachers also supported him．

3．When I was about 12，I had an enemy，a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings（缺点）．Week by week her list grew：I was very thin，I wasn't a good student，I talked too much，I was too proud，and so on．I tried to hear all this as long as I could．At last，I became very angry．I ran to my father with tears in my eyes．
He listened to me quietly，then he asked．"Are the things she says true or not？Janet，didn't you ever wonder what you're really like？Well，you now have that girl's opinion．Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true．Pay no attention to the other things she said．"
I did as he told me．To my great surprise，I discovered that about half the things were true．Some of them I couldn't change （like being very thin），but a good number I could-and suddenly I wanted to change．For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself．
I brought the list back to Daddy．He refused to take it．"That's just for you，"he said．"You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself．But you have to learn to listen，not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt．When something said about you is true，you'll find it will be of help to you．Our world is full of people who think they know your duty．Don't shut your ears．Listen to them all，but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do．"
