生命的断想

I've learned…That the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.I've learned…That when you are in love, it shows.I've learned…That just one person saying to me, "you've made my day !"makes my day.I've learned…That having a child fall asleep in your arms is one of the most peaceful feelings in the world.I've learned…That being kind is more important than being right.I've learned…That you should never refuse a gift from a child.I've learned…That no matter how serious your life requires you to be, everyone needs a friend to act goofy with.I've learned…That sometimes what a person needs is a hand to hold and a heart to understand.I've learned…That simple walks with my father around the block on summer nights when I was a child did wonders for me as an adult.

想让英语更进一步?

Take a moment,put down your pencil or pen,close your textbooks and notebooks and ask yourself this question:What is more important:only learning new language,or reviewing previous lessons? All too often we get caught up in the idea that we need to learn as many new vocabulary terms, grammar rules and sentence structures as we can each and every day that we can forget to look back and review what we learned previously.Just why is this important? There is an old saying that says it best with:If you don’t use it,you lose it.

Everyone, I wonder, may cherish a dream when he or she was in the childhood. To be a policewoman, attiring in an imposing uniform and arming with a polished sword and an exquisite pistol, was such a dream that I yearned for at that carefree and wishful age.

The rain

I used to be a boy deeply loving the rain. Running in the rain without my beautiful umbrella was once one of my favorite things. However, as time went by, I was not even the half the one I had been.

Though it took me more time and strength, I still enjoyed walking home. At least I didn＇t have to stay out of breath on the hot wet bus...
