How can you make a million dollars in one month? I’m sure I am going to get the of many readers with this question. The news is that you are not going to make a million dollars in one month you win the lottery (彩票) or some prize.
We all want to be millionaires. However, if you try to find out how they become rich, you will learn that they worked very for the money. That is what most have had to do, including Bill Gates and Andrew Carnegie, and they often went hardships before they succeeded .
There are many reasons why the millionaires have made it for themselves. In this article, I am going to passion (热情) which I think is the most quality to have in order to succeed. I am sure that if one was to the people who made millions in their lifetime, this would be found in all of them.

A year later, she was finally given the chance by a small , which paid 15.000. and the from that company was that she should get herself a job since she had little of making a living by writing children’s books. If you want to make a million dollars, find something that you really passionate (热情的) and work hard at it. It doesn’t what it is. Let me know how you !

I had worried myself sick over Simon’s mother coming to see me. I was a new , and I gave an honest account of the students’ work. In Simon’s case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn’t read his own handwriting. he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his .
So when Simon’s mother entered the room, my palms(手掌心) were sweating. I was completely for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he me, he had began to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had spent an afternoon at a friend’s house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the I had nurtured(培养) in her son. She kissed me again and left.
I sat, stunned (惊呆), for about half an hour, what had just happened. How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without knowing it? What I finally came to was one day, several months before, when some students were reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke , and to encourage her to raise her voice, L had said, “Speak up. Simon’s the expert on this. He is the one you have to convince, and he can’t hear you in the of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, more, and became happy. And it was all because he to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed was the one who took the last seat that day.
It taught me the most lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I’m thankful that it came and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

My husband, Tom, has always been good with animals, but I was still amazed when he befriended a female grouse (松鸡). It's for a grouse to have any contact (接触) with people. In fact, they're hard to spot, they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching.
This grouse came into our lives in Tom was working out in the field when he her walking around at the edge of the field. She was unafraid and seemed to be about what he was doing.
Tom saw the bird several times, and she got more comfortable around him. We quickly grew of the bird and decided to call her Mildred.
One day, as Tom was working, Mildred came within a few feet of him to watch. Tom he didn't see her and kept working to see what she would do next.
Apparently, she didn't like to be . She'd run up and peck (啄) at Tom's hands, then off to see what he would do. This went on for about 20 minutes, until Mildred became tired of the and left.
As spring went and summer came, Mildred started to more and more often. Mildred felt comfortable enough to jump up on Tom's leg and stay long enough for me to get a of the two of them together. This friendly grouse soon felt not just with our family, but with anybody who walked or drove by.
When hunting season opened, we put a at the end of our driveway asking not to shoot our pet grouse. My father, who lived down the road, warned people not to shoot her. . hunters would stop and take pictures, because they had never seen anything like her.
