When I smoked with my family, I would feel so 36 and good that nothing else in the world seemed so 37 . I thought that smoking weed (烟草) was okay since many of my family members and people at my school smoked. 38 ever happened to them. 39 I started smoking weed a lot more during lunch and after school. I never thought 40 of it. At that time I just wanted to smoke. Then I began to 41 in school. I would 42 classes, come home late and spend all my money. I would spend 43 8 to 18 dollars a day. I never thought 44 that marijuana (大麻) had a bad effect on those things. Maybe my coming to class high (神智恍惚) was the reason why I was failing or coming home late. As I continued to smoke marijuana, I began to notice that I would always have the strong desire to smoke and that I would get 45 cigarettes if I smoked those, but I don’t. 46 I have learned more about marijuana, I have 47 the amount of marijuana that I use. I don’t want marijuana to be the most important in my life. I’m not smoking every day, and not spending as much money. Since I have 48 on my habit, I am 49 more money. I’m ready to go back to school and do good, so that I can make myself 50 . Everyone is always saying how weed 51 your mind and how it solves problems. I think it only brings more 52 . Marijuana is not good for your body or your brain. I’m not trying to tell you not to smoke, I’m just letting you know that marijuana can be 53 to your health, and 54 it may cause some long term negative (负面的) effects. Help yourself now, before it is too late. I don’t want to lecture anyone, just 55 my experience with you.

It was past 10:00 pm. I was busy with my schoolwork though I was 21 . Just then my little
brother Michael ran out of his room, 22 a pen in his right hand and a piece of paper in the other.
“Betty, can you help me with my 23 for school? It’s about the seven 24 of the world.” He said.
My eyes were so 25 on the computer screen that my brother had to pull my blouse just to get my 26 .
“Look, not right now! I’m very busy.” I said. “You’re always busy! You’re always like that!” he replied.
I felt a bit guilty（愧疚） 27 I thought about his words, but my work seemed more 28 to me than my brother’s. I sighed a few times and 29 with my own studies.
The next day, I arrived home late. Michael came into my room.
“I know you are 30 , but there’s something I want to show you”, he began. Without saying a word, I 31 the paper from him. I really didn’t 32 what he was saying. All I wanted was to 33 him and finally get to rest.
Suddenly, my eyes widened in 34 . There, he wrote:
The Seven Wonders of the World
1．Love 2．Friendship 3．Peace 4．Joy 5．Wisdom 6．Fun 7．Family
I 35 believe what my brother had written on the paper. I was completely 36 .
How could such an innocent（天真的）little child 37 such things in life?
The most valuable things in life are the ones that we 38 take for granted. These things don’t take the form of big houses or beautiful 39 . The most wonderful things in the world are immaterial（非物质的） 40 they can never be developed by human art, skill or effort.

There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people 36 to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you 37 is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you 38 others. Because while there will be times 39 outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely 40 . The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are 41 . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision 42 anyway.
You were 43 with the ability to decide what is and what isn’t in your best interest. Most of the time, you will make the right decision and 44 the appropriate actions, and in thinking for yourself, you will become far more successful than if you had gone against your own 45 .
Early on in my investment career, I made the mistake of 46 a few important business
decisions on colleagues’ opinions instead of conducting the 47 necessary to make a wise decision. It wasn’t due to 48 on my part; no one could ever accuse me of that. But, being 49 to Wall Street, I intended to assume that my more senior 50 knew more than I did, and so I 51 too much significance to their opinions.
You know what happened? Each of those investments ended in 52 . Eventually I stopped allowing myself to be influenced by 53 and began doing the work myself and making my own decisions. It took me until I was almost 30 years old to 54 this—it’s never too late for a person to change his approach both to 55 and to life.

My friend Michelle is blind, but you’d never know it. She makes such good use of her other 36 , including her “sixth sense”, that she seldom gives the impression (印象) that she’s 37 anything. It’s really amazing.
Michelle 38 her children pretty much like the rest of us, except that she isn’t too hard on them. Her children really benefit a lot from her 39 attitude. She knows when to clean the house, and she moves around so fast that 40 often don’t realize she’s blind. 
I 41 this the first time after my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she was very 42 about her day. She told me they had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was 43 excited about her finger-painting project.
“Mom, guess what?” said Kayla, all smiles. “I learned how to 44 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! And Michelle 45 with us”.
To my great 46 , my child had learnt about color from a blind friend! Then Kayla continued, “Michelle told me my 47 showed joy, pride and a sense of accomplishment (成就). She really 48 what I was doing!” Kayla said she had never known how good finger paints felt 49 Michelle showed her how to paint without looking at her paper.
I realized Kayla didn’t know that Michelle was blind. It had just never come 50 in conversation. When I told my daughter Michelle was blind, she was 51 for a moment. At first, she didn’t believe me. “But Mommy, Michelle knew exactly what was in my picture!” Kayla 52 . I knew my child was 53 because Michelle had listened to Kayla describe her art work. Michelle had also “heard” Kayla’s 54 in her work.
We were silent for a minute. Then Kayla said slowly, “You know, Mommy, Michelle did ‘see’ my picture. She just used my 55 .” Indeed, she uses a special type of “vision” that all mothers have.
