Years ago, when Dad moved to the US, I had to go to school in New York. I was worried. How could I, an 8-year-old girl from , make friends in America?
On my first day at Anna Silver School, I met Miss Alice Green, my class . She spoke to me slowly and to get me used to her American accent. When she discovered that I drawing, she took me as the teacher. Miss Green made sure that I fit into (适应) her class easily, and before I knew it, I was already having fun, just as other schoolgirls were.
When Dad was sent back to India, I had to Anna Silver School. I was again. Miss Green had planned to take us students for a trip, but I had to say goodbye to them now. So, with a heart, I left my school and the US.
Back in India, I received a package one day. It was Miss Green and my classmates. They had written me a letter each, me about the fishing trip. Miss Green said she me very much. With her good wishes, she added: “Keep up with your drawing, you love it so much.”
I’m very to Miss Green. She not only made a shy little feel at home in a faraway country, but also taught me and my classmates to understand the importance of being kind to others at an early age.

While it is for you to take only the best for yourselves, that is the root of your and stress. You know that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, you consciously went for the best cups.
Now consider this.Life is the coffee. The jobs, money and in society are the cups. They are just to hold life. and the type of cup does not change the quality of our life. Sometimes, by only of the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee that God has us. God offers us the coffee, not the cups. Please enjoy your coffee ! "

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak . And leave the rest to God.

In many people’s eyes, middle school students are happy and carefree（无忧无虑）. But is it the truth? And what students happy or unhappy?
To find out the answers, Li Jiahui, a student in Pinggu No. 3 Middle School, Beijing, spent six months students’ sense(感受) of happiness last year. The girl made a survey with questions such as “ Are you feeling happy?” and “What makes you unhappy?”
After studying the answers from 284 students, Li learned that 40 percent of the students feel unhappy, and the from studies is the main reason for their unhappiness.
“More than 50 percent said they were under pressure and 70 percent get enough sleep,” Li said. “It shows that middle school students are not as happy people think. They worry a lot, and they can get angry easily.”
Li also said that over 90 percent say their happiness has to do with how much money they have. Instead, they care about their relationships（关系）with friends, teachers and parents. “Students always feel better when they get well with each other,” Li said.
After her survey, Li listed tips that may make students happier, such as: Treat yourself better, be kind and polite to your friends and relatives, and try new things.
