As a teacher, I always think it right to teach my students to write about their true feelings and real experiences. But once I was puzzled about this.
After explaining a text one day, I asked my students to write a passage about their families. All the students wrote quite well but the best of them all was the one written by a small girl. I was deeply touched by it. The girl’s father had died years before and her mother had to work hard to support the family. Many times she had seen her mother working deep into the night but never seen tears on her face. Like her mother this girl also works hard at her lessons and she is really good at any of them. I even didn’t know anything about her unlucky family. She always appears happy every day so she is really liked by us all, both the students and teachers.
In order to make her an example to the class, I read this passage to the class. When I finished reading it I found my throat choked and my students’ eyes full of tears. Some of them even wept in a low voice. After the class nearly all my other students wanted to hand in their pocket money for the daily use to help this girl. To tell you the truth, I was really proud of my students.
But to my disappointment, this student of mine left the class even without telling me the next day. I don’t know the reason why, can you tell me?

I am not just a successful architect（建筑师）. I also like to play the piano. In my spare time I often turn some dry musical symbols into beautiful music.
Many years ago, while I was in a university studying architecture, I worked in a workshop. During the break I found an old piano in the corner of the room. With the allowance of the boss I sat down to have a try. Following my fingers the keys danced brilliantly and at the same time beautiful music flew out and then to every part of the room. All my workmates suddenly stopped talking and made their ears ready for my music.
After graduation, I began to devote myself to my profession. All my musical talent was wasted into zero. Then one evening we went to a concert at which Mr. Stevenson, one of the ordinary workers in my company, sang us some beautiful songs. His musical talents made us all surprised. We all enjoyed ourselves with his beautiful voice so much that we even thought him a professional singer. I was also reminded of my musical talent.
I began to train in a training center. My teacher was strict with me. He encouraged me to train every weekend and each time he asked me to play better than the last. Now I can proudly say I am also a successful pianist because every time I played on the stage fresh flowers and warm clapping would come from my audience. So I say, my friends, don’t busy yourself with your work too much. Find some time to develop your potential talent（潜能） and your life will become more wonderful.

We Chinese people like the color of red. Our national flag is red. Girls like to wear red clothes when they get married. During the Spring Festival we hang up red lanterns（灯笼） to make us more excited. We welcome important guests with red carpet（地毯）. In a word, we believe red color can give us excitement and with excitement we feel happy and gay.
But in Libya（利比亚）, everything is different. They like green more than any other colors. Their national flag is all green without any design of other colors. In the streets among the dark green trees you can see the light green buildings, with green cars and green trucks running about. Their names are also green, such as the Green Square, the Green Hospital, the Green Hotel, the Green Highland, and the Green School and so on. Over the buildings there is always the large portrait of their president Gaddafi also dressed in green. In the schools children wear green clothes and their teachers are in green dresses. Girls like to wear green clothes, as they are all eager to become soldiers.
It is said that this has something to do with their living environment. Most of the people in this country are Arabians. They live in the desert and of course life is really precious there for them. So they look at the color of green as their real life. They would save some water from their mouths for the trees. The first day of September is their national day. Every year on this day people from all walks of life（各行各业） will gather in the Green Square. They wear green clothes with the green flags in the lead walking in the green streets. It is really magnificent(壮观) to watch this.
