One day, Mr. Morrie came into the classroom and said he had a game for us to try. He divided us into two groups. One student from the first group, stood in front of us with his eyes closed, and then fell backwards(向后地). The second group stood behind him. Before he fell on the floor, they should catch him and not let him get hurt. Most of us were uncomfortable with this. We were afraid that they wouldn’t catch us and we would hit the floor. So we didn’t move. We just stood there and laughed in embarrassment.
Finally, one student, a thin, quiet, dark-haired girl called Sarah, decided to move. She crossed her arms in front of her body, closed her eyes, and slowly fell backwards. She looked quiet but brave.
For a moment, I was sure that she was going to fall on the floor. But before she hit the floor, the other students caught her, held her and finally helped her stand up.
“Whoa!!” We were all surprised, and also encouraged(受鼓舞的). The girl was happy, too. Seeing this, Morrie smiled and said to the girl, “When you close your eyes, you can’t see anything. You won’t feel safe. When you are falling, the feeling gets stronger. You are not sure whether you will hit the cold, hard floor or the warm, soft hands of your friends. But if you are brave enough to trust them, they will not let you down(使人失望).”

Dear editor,
I dream that one day I will become a good teacher. To me, it is a great job. But I know that my parents will be 1 it. They want me to be a famous doctor, but I have no 2 in this. What should I do？
Abduway
Dear Abduway,
It sounds like your parents are putting a lot of pressure on you. However, your concern is still only in your head. You haven't yet tried to talk to your 3 . And you know you must talk to them when they are together and at a 4 time. Tell them, without 5 , that your dream is to become a great 6 . Give your reasons for wanting to be a teacher. 7 your plan to get there. What subject do you want to teach？
Think about these points so that you can show your parents you are 8 They may not like the idea at first, but with a little time and effort, you can prove to them that this is 9 you really want to do.
And you never know, they might surprise you. They might think that you become a teacher is a 10 idea！ Whatever they say, you must remember they only want what's 11 for you. Perhaps they are giving you chances they didn't have when they were 12 and want you to make the most of them.
But it is still your life. You cannot live to your parents' 13 . If you become a doctor you probably won't be happy. Then you won't try your best and certainly won't become 14 .
Most parents want their kids to be 15 . But in the end, most would rather they were happy.

just because the shop assistant asked you to buy it? Have you ever been afraid to ask someone for an
appointment?
Many people are afraid to assert themselves (坚持主见). Dr. Alberti, author of Stand Up and Speak Out,
thinks it's because their self-respect (自尊心) is low. "Our whole system (体制) of society is designed to
make people less confident," says Alberti. "There's always a person who knows more and better around us-a
parent, a teacher or a boss. These people often chip away at (削弱) our self-image (自我形象)."
To help people assert themselves, Alberti and other scientists offer AT courses where people learn that
they have a right (权利) to do so. They learn to speak out and feel good doing so. They learn to be more
active without hurting other people.
In one way, learning to speak out is to get over fear. A group taking an AT course will help the shy person
lose fear. And AT even encourages the need to share (分享) so that even the shy person wants to tell others
how he feels.
Whether you speak out depends on your self-image. If someone you face is more "important" than you,
you may be afraid to do so. But, why should you? AT says once you can learn to speak out, you will gradually
feel good about yourself.
