It is Mother's Day. John is busy with his work during the day. When he passes by a flower shop in the evening, he thinks, ‘I'll send Mum some roses (玫瑰).’ While John is looking at the flowers, a young man comes inside. ‘How many roses can I buy for only five dollars , madam?’ he asks. The shopkeeper tells him that a dozen of roses(一打玫瑰) is forty dollars. Maybe he can buy some carnations (康乃馨). They are much cheaper.
‘No, I only want to have red roses,’ he says. ‘My mum was badly ill and I didn't spend much time with her. Now I want to give her something special, it must be roses because rose is her favorite.’
After hearing it, John says he can help him pay for the rest (其余) of the money. The shopkeeper is moved (感动的) and says, ‘Well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you.’ Taking the roses, the young man almost jumps into the air and runs out of the shop. Then John pays for his dozen of roses and tells the shopkeeper to send them to his mother.
As he walks out, he feels nice. Suddenly he sees the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon John knows it is not a park but a cemetery (墓地). Crying, the young man carefully puts down the roses, ‘Mum, oh, Mum, why didn't I tell you how much I loved you? God, please help me find my mum and tell her I love her.’
Seeing this, John turns and quickly walks to the shop. He will take the flowers home himself.

If you lose 12 times in a row (连续地), will you just give up? Dale Carnegie, a pioneer in public speaking and self-development, kept trying. And he became famous by showing people how to be successful.
Carnegie was born into a poor family in the United States. The boy didn’t see a train until he was 12 years old. In his teens, he had to get up at 3 am every day to milk the cows for his family.
When Carnegie first entered college, he felt upset because of his ragged (破旧的) clothes and ordinary(平凡的) looks. His mother encouraged him, “Why not try to be better in other things instead of just dress and good looks?”
Carnegie tried to be more active in college. He joined the debate (辩论) team. But one after another, he lost 12 competitions. The young man was very disappointed with himself. He said later that he thought of killing himself after failing so many times. But soon Carnegie was seen practicing public speaking on the riverside. His hard work paid off at last. In 1906, Carnegie won a famous speech contest and became well-known. “Believe that you will succeed, and you will,” he said.
In order to share his success, Carnegie opened schools and wrote books. His best-sellers(畅销书) include How to Win Friends and Influence People and How to Stop Worrying and Start Living. More than 50 million copies of his books have been translated in 38 languages. They are still helping people on the road to success.
