According to a joint survey by the Social Investigation Center of China Youth Daily and the news center of Tencent.com，76.9％ of the 5,21l respondents（调查对象），all being youths in their 20s, believe the society needs chutouniao（“leading birds”）who dare to take risks to show their worth，although，as the Chinese, saying goes, “The leading bird gets shot first．”or “One who takes the lead usually bears the brunt of an attack．”

About 58.2％of the respondents think that one has to work hard at all times, and one must know how to show off when the chance comes．53％of them also believe that it is necessary to be aggressive（进取的）,sometimes．

“I wish my employees will let me know when they have achieved something．”said LiuXueyuan，the president of a media company，as it is impossible for him to know all his employees well．However, showing off too much is of course no good, either．“One who likes to show off one’s achievement will also be the first to be noticed when one makes a mistake．”said Liu．He suggested that the employees should do their jobs steadily and surely．

Although most respondents think chutouniao are necessary，not many of them like to hobnob（亲近）with such persons．In fact, 65.9％ of the respondents simply don’t like them，while 7.1％ of the respondents expressed their hatred（厌恶）of them．

Faced with the conflict between “needed by the society” and “disliked by fellow beings,” quite a large number of people have let slip chances．59.6％ of the respondents regret it．

Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.

It takes an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return; but if it does not, be content it has grown in yours. Do not rely on one’s appearance; it can trick you. Do not rely on wealth; even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trails to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy. The happiest of people do not necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Always put yourself in others’ shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
