1 . Nine years ago around Christmas, I was on a Captiva Island beach at sunrise. I crouched low there and was lost in the false hope of finding a treasure larger than the small____on the shore.

A man ran slowly along the waves ____my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didn’t     　___him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be ____of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his____, a beautiful bright cream-colored shell, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in ____, and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it ____before me like a diamond, not ____my eyes.

“I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his ____down the beach. I do not ____his voice, his clothes or even his face, ____I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson I’ve ever ____. Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as____as it was, but it is ____ there, a reminder that there is quiet in the world.

That man saved my belief in the______of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I know that I can ____bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is ____we have done for others. The shell is to me, as______as another man who returned to the plane to ____me my lost jacket.

I know that ____a difference in someone’s life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world.

4 . Habits Of Highly Successful Students
Never Over-Study
When you spend too much time studying you will quickly lose focus and the time spent in studying will become ‘junk time’. You think you're studying but you're just sitting there re-reading the same sentence about 100 times and you're not getting anywhere. Instead, take regular breaks.    1    Besides, it will give your mind some time to take in what you have been doing.
    2    
Top students don't just randomly sit down and complete work. They actually plan what they are going to do: They actually plan the time they will study and they set goals for what will be achieved. If you want to be successful, do as successful people do. Set a plan and, set a goal and stick to it, which will create a routine and a routine is the first step towards developing a habit.    3    
Front Up To The Toughest Work First
Many of us like to do the easy things first to build our confidence. That’s fair enough. The only challenge with this approach is that you use up your primary energy at the start of any study period and so if you are dealing with the easy parts with your primary energy your batteries will be low when it comes the time to deal with the hard part. So what happens then?    4    We all do it. We really shouldn't, though. So develop the habit of giving your primary energy to the hard tasks and completing the easy stuff last.
    5    
Do we really have to explain this? Just turn them off for an hour, we promise the world will still be there when you log back in! Don't text your friends, don't chat while doing memory activities，don't make phone calls, just focus on what you're doing. Even if you focus on work' for 15 minutes followed by 5 mins of chatting, it’s better than 30 minutes of work while also chatting! You get that right?

A．Plan Your Study

B．Achieve Your Goal

C．Positive habits decide future success.

D．Taking breaks can make you get everywhere.

E．You get tired and impatient and just give up.

F．Get Off Social Networking Sites And Turn Off The Phone

G．Taking breaks will make you energetic again and refresh your mind.

6 . One day, when I was working as a psychologist(心理学家) in England，a boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm

very worried about him. Can you help?”

I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.

The first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon -- in complete silence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.

Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?

"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with," I thought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.

"It’s your turn," he said.

After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.

Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one -- without any words -- can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.Ziyuanku.com

7 . An eight-year-old girl heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.

When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.

She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.

“And what do you want?” asked the salesman.

“It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”

“Pardon?” said the salesman.

“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”

“We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.

“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.” said the girl.

A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”

“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”

“How much do you have?” asked the man.

“$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.

“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brother.”

He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”

Dear Ken,

I am very exciting to learn that you’re coming to Beijing for the Olympics. Both my parent miss you a lot. So do our friend, Cathy. August is the best time of the year to visit Beijing, because of there is only a few rain and the weather is neither too hot or too cold. There are so many places I want to take you after I finish my work like a volunteer. When you come, you can stay with ourselves. My home is about three kilometers away from the National Stadium, knowing as the “Bird’s Nest”, where opening ceremony will be held.

Best regards,

Janet
