Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber(橡胶) ball. If you drop it, it will bounce( 反弹 )back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth(价值) by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best to yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. Be brave!

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do？”as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.
Languages do not just have different sounds; they are different in many ways. It’s important to master（掌握）the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker puts words in a wrong order, the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.
“She only likes apples.”
“Only she likes apples.”
“I have seen the film already.”
“I already have seen the film.”
When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does.From the passage we know that____ when we are learning English.

I’ll never forget one summer day in 1975. On that day my mother suddenly died because of an unexplained illness at the age of 36. Later that afternoon, a police officer came to my house to ask for my father’s permission（允许）for the hospital to use Mother’s valve（心脏瓣膜）. I was greatly surprised. I ran into the house in tears. At 14, I just couldn’t understand why people would take apart（分解）a person I loved. . But my father told him, “Yes.”
“How can you let them do that to her?” I cried at him.
“Linda,” he said quietly, putting his arms around me, “the greatest present you can give is a part of yourself. Your mother and I decided long ago that if we can make a person’s life better after we died, our death will have meaning.’’
The lesson my father taught me that day became one of the most important in my life.
Years passed. I married and had a family of my own. In 1996 my father became seriously ill. With a smile he told me that when he died, he wanted to donate（捐赠）whatever was in good condition（状况）, especially his eyes.
My father died and we donated his eyes as he had wanted. Three days later, my daughter said, “Mum, I’m so proud of what you did for Grandpa.” At that moment I realized that my father gave much more than his eyes. What he left behind sparkled（闪烁）in my daughter’s eyes-pride.
