"The little bamboo tree had been growing underground in the past four years，developing a root strong enough for its ground growth （生长）in the fifth year.If it hadn't done this，it would not be so strong.So you know，all the time you were struggling，you were actually growing strong roots." the old man said.Finally，the man thanked the old man deeply.Then he left the forest with the hope for life.

"Can I take your order？ " Night after night， I had to say this as I worked in my family's restaurant． My father was a fantastic cook． He wanted me， his only son， to cook with him， but I didn't like cooking． Because of the restaurant， my father was always busy． He never had time to play football with me．
During my high school and college years， I worked with my family at night． But I always avoided the kitchen． I couldn't wait to graduate （毕业）so that I could move away from the family business． Several days before my graduation day， my father and I started looking at new cars． Finally， we found the right car． I was sure that my father would give it to me as my graduation gift．

In September，2020，I had the chance to come to China for the first time and visited Yunnan Province.
On the first day we went to a village named Xiaopingzhai.I was amazed to discover that small tea factory could bring in 6 million yuan a year with only 20 workers.
The next of our trip was the village of Kangmian.Many families now live there after leaving uninhabitable（不适合居住的）areas.The new village has 450 housing units.There I have learned that the government helps the people by providing jobs so that they can support themselves.Of the 1，331 villagers，609 now have jobs.
In Shuiduichong，a traditional Yao ethnic（瑶族）group village，we visited the workshops for making silver ornaments（饰品）.We discovered the skill had a history of more than 200 year.Besides the traditional use of silver ornaments in Yao culture， ▲ .
A set of silver ornaments can be sold for between 10，000 and 20，000 yuan on the market.The making of silver ornaments creates jobs in the village.Shuiduichong now has more than 20 family workshops.

Put a frog in the water and start heating the water． As the temperature of the water rises， the frog is able to adjust its body temperature． The frog keeps on adjusting with the increase in temperature．
Just when the water is about to reach the boiling point， the frog is not able to adjust anymore．
At that point the frog decides to jump out．
The frog tries to jump but is unable to do so． because it loses all its strength in adjusting to the water temperature．
Very soon the frog dies． What kills the frog？
Many of us would say the boiling water．
But in fact， what kills the frog is its own inability to decide when it has to jump out．
We all need to adjust to people and situations， but we need to be sure when we need to adjust and when we need to face．
There are times when we need to face the situation and take the proper action．
If we allow people to exploit us in body， mirid， emotion or money， they will continue to do so． We have to decide when to jump． Let us jump while we still have the strength!
So， we must think of danger in times of safety and always be prepared for the worst．

If you feel sad or upset，remember not to watch a happy movie.A sad movie may be more suitable for you.
Some scientists at Ohio State University，the U.S.，have found that sad movies can make people happier.They published their study in a magazine called Communication Research.
Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement.The movie tells a story of two lovers who were separated.They died during World War II at the end of the movie.The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before，after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings，including sadness.
According to the result of the survey，scientists found out that people felt better after watching the sad movie.Scientists believed this was because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships.Compared to those of the unlucky lovers in the movie，their lives were full of hope.
"I want to live my life to the fullest，and this movie has made me think a lot，" one student wrote.
Silvia Knobloch﹣Westerwick，the leader of the study，explained that bad moods （情绪） would make people more thoughtful. "Good moods are generally a sign that everything is fine.You don't have to worry，and you don't have to think about problems in your life，" she said. "But bad emotions，like sadness，make you feel terrible about your situation.Therefore，seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad，but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value them more."

There are about 1.5 million kinds of living things on Earth，but how many do you see every day？You often see the big colourful animals，like birds，rabbits，and fish.But look more closely.Can you see the small ones，too？Insects（昆虫）make up 80 percent of all the world's living kinds.Look on the ground.Imagine you could look under the ground，too.Many small living things with one cell live there.Life is everywhere around us，in every cubic foot （a foot＝ 12 inches）.
David Littschwager is a photographer who wanted to find out how many living things lived in one cubic foot .So he made a 12﹣inch cube with a green metal frame.And then he put it in five habitats（栖息地）.He chose a tropical rainforest（Costa Rica），a coral reef（Pacific Ocean），the Table Mountain（South Africa），a freshwater river（USA），and a small park（New York）.Three weeks were spent at each place.He watched，counted，and took photos of everything down to I millimeter in size-that crawled（爬）or flew into the cube.
The results were amazing.Liittschwager found both common and rare living things.He discovered many new living kinds，like a strange transparent octopus that is the size of a fingernail!In total，more than a thousand living things were photographed.Liittchwager said the One Cubic Foot experience was like "finding treasure".David Liittschwager also found that the highest biodiversity（生物多样性）in the reef was in the skeleton coral（珊瑚遗骨）.These skeleton coral are suitable for sea living things of all sizes to grow.Although the coral reef had the widest range of biodiversity，all the other habitats were full of life.Even the city park!

A Story of David Littschwager |
Whenever I'm invited to somebody's house for the first time， I'll take a close look at their bookshelves．What they keep on their shelves，in my eyes，is a reflection（反映） of their personal tastes and interests．The books on a bookshelf tell the story of a life．
My own shelves are a kind of roadmap through my life， telling a chronological tale． First up come my favorite childhood reads， like Watership Down and His Dark Materials． The collection then moves on to teenage things I read in school ﹣ Nineteen Eight﹣Four， The Handmaid's Tale and A Clockwork Orange． Finally， we come out of full﹣time education and enter the real world， and this part is a reflection of my professional（职业的） life， from the first exciting days of work experience to the present．
If you pointed to any book on my shelves， I could name the year I got it， where I was working，and probably where I was living at the time．
___▲____It is an easy way to get to know about his hopes， dreams and interests． And a big part of that story is how we arrange（排列） our books， and get on with them． It's such a personal thing，different from each other． Some want to be with their books in every room， others have them on
shelves， behind glass or simply lining their floors． Each home has a story to tell through the way they live with their books．
It's often said that what we read says something about who we are． The way we fill our bookshelves might also send a message about ourselves． From the pile of books on your bedside table to your well﹣organized shelves， whether we notice it or not， our book collections are telling a story before a single page has been turned．
（1）The book son the writer's own shelves are organized according to ．
A． their prices

A little boy invited his mother to come to his teacher﹣parent meeting，but the little boy was very upset．Although his mother was a beautiful woman，there was a scar（伤疤）on her nearly the right side of her face．The boy never wanted to talk about why or how she got the scar．At the meeting，the people saw the mother with a scar，and the little boy felt embarrassed and hid himself from everyone，listening to a conversation between his mother and the teacher．
The teacher asked carefully，"How did you get the scar on your face？"
The mother answered，"When my son was a baby，he was in a room，and the room caught fire．Everyone was too afraid to come in，so I went in．When I was running to his bed，I saw a piece of wood coming down and I placed myself over him trying to protect him．I was senseless：but luckily，the fireman came in and saved both of us．"She touched the scar of her face．"This scar will be lasting，but to this day，I have never regretted what I did．"
At this point，the little boy came out running toward his mother with tears in his eyes．He held his mother in his arms．

78．The little boy knew how his mother got the scar before the teacher﹣parent meeting．

Imagine this． There's an apple and a piece of cake on a table． Which one would you like ？The delicious cake or the healthy apple？ A bestseller， Willpower Rediscovering Our Greater Strength ，suggests that willpower（意志力） is the ability to make decisions that are better for us in the long term， rather than in the short term．
Here is a famous experiment in the book：The Marshmallow Test．In 1972，Professor Walter Mischel tested the willpower of 600 four﹣year﹣olds to six﹣year﹣olds．In the experiment，each child was left alone in a room for fifteen minutes with a marshmallow（棉花软糖） on a table in front of them．They were given two choices： they could either eat it or，if they waited fifteen minutes，they'd be given a second one （and then they could eat both）．
So， what did the kids do？ Well， as you can imagine，70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes．But the other 30% showed willpower they controlled themselves and waited for the second marshmallow．But then Mischel discovered something really interesting． Twenty years later， he got in touch with the children， who， by then，were in their early twenties．And he found that those who'd shown strong willpower were getting better marks at university and were more popular．
Willpower is like a muscle（肌肉），and the more you exercise it， the stronger it gets．So，if you do daily "self﹣control exercises"，such as making your bed or brushing your teeth，you'll improve your overall willpower． And daily willpower exercises will help you with those bigger goals， such as studying for an exam or training for a marathon．
Be careful though． Just like any muscle， your "willpower muscle" can get tired．If you've had to do lots of things that require willpower， take a break or give yourself a treat．
That way，you'll build up your willpower again．
And one last thing， the writer mentions people who learn foreign languages usually have a lot of willpower． So， congratulations!

It was last January， when I'd just finished a charity （慈善） and was on the train back home， that I put down my phone and started writing thank﹣you notes to people who had helped，
When I got off the train， I felt amazingly good． The next day，I wrote more thank﹣yous and the same feeling of happiness hit me again． I suddenly had the idea： Why not keep on doing this for every day of the year？
To keep on task， I decided to pick out a different theme for each month． January was charity．February would be neighbors， I decided， And I thought of a number of names right away： the owner of our local bookstore， who let me and my little son in before the store opened and offered to play his favorite songs； our babysitter， who dropped off a bag of old board games for our kids to play， …
While writing the notes， I realized how often I had spent my time on the phone moving from app to app， appreciating （欣赏） other people's lives． Writing thank﹣you notes allowed me the time to do something different， paying more attention to my own life．
In the following months， I wrote to my friends， doctors， teachers and parenting role models． In July， my"food" month， I wrote to Julie，who used to cook at my favorite restaurant．It went like this：
Dear Julie，
I've been finding myself missing you lately． Thank you for hosting and cooking beautiful and thoughtful food． Jake and I will never forget when you sent out biscuits shaped into the number VI for our sixth anniversary （周年纪念日）．We talk about it every year．
Thank you． We miss you．
Love，
Gina
I was happy to receive a note back from her． Julie replied，"I don't think I've ever received such a touching letter before， I' m going through a hard time right now， and this helps．"

On winter nights， the wind usually blows strongly． Most of us stay inside our warm homes． Few of us think about the homeless． These people have no choice but to sleep on the streets．Some of them are so poor that they have no money to buy food．
A young man in Birmingham，England， made a decision to do something about this．Every night，he puts on a Spider﹣Man suit and gives food to the homeless he meets． He makes sure that these people won't go hungry．
The man refuses to make his name public．The local people call him the "Birmingham Spider﹣Man"．The young man hopes his action will show others that everybody deserves （应得） a helping hand．
The 25﹣year﹣old man started his night activities in 2015． Every night at 9， he buys some sandwiches． Then． he finds a quiet alley and puts on his "uniform"． After that， the "Spider﹣Man" starts handing his food out to people in need．
The man said，"I wear the Spider﹣Man suit in order to get attention．"Without the suit，few people took a second look at him when he was handing out food．When people see the "Spider﹣Stan"，however，they come over and ask what he is doing．
"The Birmingham Spider﹣Man" has already got lots of attention．Many people have offered to give away money to him． But the young man never accepts the money． Instead， he encourages people to go out and help people in need on their own． He said， "If more people offer a helping hand， the cold winter nights won't be so cold any longer．"

In a few hours Sam would be flying to Germany． We looked at each other but no sound broke the silence of my beach﹣side house．
Such a moment was not the first time for me．On Sam's first day of kindergarten （幼儿园），I felt his stress when holding his hand．He looked at me﹣as he did now． But I said nothing till the school bus came．About ten years later，I drove him to the college． He was sick but I didn't know then． I thought he was just too tired． I tried to think of something to say as he would start a new period of life． Again，___________．
Now， as I stood before him， I thought of those opportunities we parents all let pass． A boy graduates from school，a daughter gets married．We seldom find a quiet moment to tell them what they have meant to us． Or what they might face in the future．
Sam was weak when he was born but grew into a strong boy．Then he became the best baseball player in high school． His finest moment came when he got the first prize at a science fair．I was sorry he gave up his athletic talent，but proud that later he chose English literature．One day，I told Sam I regretted never traveling abroad to know better about the world before working．Sam decided to learn German in Berlin，even though his friends thought it meaningless．
The night before he was to leave， I failed to say any words again． Maybe， I thought， it wasn't necessary to say anything．
What does it matter if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him？ But as I stood before Sam，I knew it does matter． My father and I loved each other． However，I always regretted never hearing him put his feelings into words．
"Sam，"I said，"if I could have picked，I would have picked you．"I wasn't sure he understood what I meant． Sam came towards me and threw his arms around me，saying"thank you"．My eyes misted over （模糊）． Then， the moment ended， and Sam left home．
That was seven weeks ago， and now I think about him when I walk along the beach near my home on weekends． Thousands of miles away， Sam might be busy walking in the street of Berlin．
What I had said to Sam was not new． It was nothing．But，it was everything．

I did not grow up in a family with books．（1） My process of being a reader seemed amazing． I got lost in one book that opened up my world and changed my life．
My primary school teacher always gave her pupils time to read for pleasure in school． She believed it would improve reading greatly．（2） It was a biography（传记） of actress Greta Garbo． I picked it up and began to read from cover to cover． The words I read attracted（吸引） me and I was excited． I realized that there were other women like Greta who had made great efforts and changed their lives． I recognized（认识） myself in her．
From then on， my teacher had a hard time keeping me supplied（提供） with books． She dug up all the biographies of women that she could find．（3）
It has been a long road． I am now a physics professor in a university．（4） Recently， someone gave me Justice Sonia Sotomayor's autobiography． Once again， I am encouraged and am imagining new possibilities for my life．

E． One day， she put a book on my desk．
It was a cold，rainy day.My mother and I drove to the mountains.It was dangerous to make the two﹣hour journey along the highway in such weather.I didn't want to take the risk.But my mother advised that we go to see something at the top of the mountain.
After ten minutes' driving，we stopped the car and got out.Walking along a path，we turned at a comer.Gradually，the peace and silence of the place began to fill my mind.From the top of the mountain，I saw several fields full of flowers，shining like a carpet （地毯）before us.It looked as if the sun spilled （播洒）gold down the mountain.
A lot of questions came to my mind.Who created such beauty？Why？How？
As we moved on，we saw a sign that read， "Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking. "
The first answer was， "One Woman一Two Hands，Two Feet，and Very Little Brain. " The second was， "One at a Time. " The third， "Started in 1971. "
On our way home，I was so shocked by what we had seen. "She changed the world.One bulb （一株）at a time.She started almost 50 years ago.It was probably just the beginning of an idea，but she kept at it. " I said， "Imagine，if I had a dream and worked at it，just a little bit every day，what might I have achieved？"
My mother looked at me，smiling. "Start tomorrow. " She said， " Better yet，start today. "
