In September，2020，I had the chance to come to China for the first time and visited Yunnan Province.
On the first day we went to a village named Xiaopingzhai.I was amazed to discover that small tea factory could bring in 6 million yuan a year with only 20 workers.
The next of our trip was the village of Kangmian.Many families now live there after leaving uninhabitable（不适合居住的）areas.The new village has 450 housing units.There I have learned that the government helps the people by providing jobs so that they can support themselves.Of the 1，331 villagers，609 now have jobs.
In Shuiduichong，a traditional Yao ethnic（瑶族）group village，we visited the workshops for making silver ornaments（饰品）.We discovered the skill had a history of more than 200 year.Besides the traditional use of silver ornaments in Yao culture， ▲ .
A set of silver ornaments can be sold for between 10，000 and 20，000 yuan on the market.The making of silver ornaments creates jobs in the village.Shuiduichong now has more than 20 family workshops.
This trip was over.I have realized that through the hard work of the Chinese government，great changes have taken place in Yunnan.These impressive（印象深刻的）results should serve as an example for other developing countries.

There are about 1.5 million kinds of living things on Earth，but how many do you see every day？You often see the big colourful animals，like birds，rabbits，and fish.But look more closely.Can you see the small ones，too？Insects（昆虫）make up 80 percent of all the world's living kinds.Look on the ground.Imagine you could look under the ground，too.Many small living things with one cell live there.Life is everywhere around us，in every cubic foot （a foot＝ 12 inches）.
David Littschwager is a photographer who wanted to find out how many living things lived in one cubic foot .So he made a 12﹣inch cube with a green metal frame.And then he put it in five habitats（栖息地）.He chose a tropical rainforest（Costa Rica），a coral reef（Pacific Ocean），the Table Mountain（South Africa），a freshwater river（USA），and a small park（New York）.Three weeks were spent at each place.He watched，counted，and took photos of everything down to I millimeter in size-that crawled（爬）or flew into the cube.
The results were amazing.Liittschwager found both common and rare living things.He discovered many new living kinds，like a strange transparent octopus that is the size of a fingernail!In total，more than a thousand living things were photographed.Liittchwager said the One Cubic Foot experience was like "finding treasure".David Liittschwager also found that the highest biodiversity（生物多样性）in the reef was in the skeleton coral（珊瑚遗骨）.These skeleton coral are suitable for sea living things of all sizes to grow.Although the coral reef had the widest range of biodiversity，all the other habitats were full of life.Even the city park!

Then a neighbor told me that a public library in Washington D.C.was offering a free course，specially designed for blind people，This was an important chance for me.
But how would I map my way？I knew that the American singer Ray Charles，also blind，got around on his own without a cane （手杖）.His secret was to count steps.But I couldn't seem to do that way.Instead I developed my imagination.sensing the layout （布局）of places I Visited and taking notes of landmarks in my mind.
At first，I would have to stop to imagine and map a new space in my mind，The next time I visited that place，I'd use that to find the way.Today.I am used to doing it，But I've still lost my way many times.I'd have to swallow my pride to ask for help，not thinking what others think or say about me.

Recently，teenagers face many kinds of problems.Like many of them.I was once troubled with worries and dissatisfaction.Few people could understand my feelings.（1）
"The problem with your generation is that you always expect to be happy，" my mother once said.（2） Shouldn't we try hard to achieve it？
But now I have noticed a change in my thinking.I gradually realize what my mother said was correct.Over these years，many studies have shown that we are crazy about happiness and high personal confidence（3） In fact，we may often be happier when we stop focusing on happiness.
We should also reset our expectations of the future.Don't expect miracles（奇迹），and accept that no matter how hard we try，feelings of failure and unhappiness will appear from time to time.When we feel sad，it's often because we have learned something painful but important.（4） At the same time，we should learn how to deal with them better than trying to make them disappear.

A.Neither could my parents.
B.We should keep the stress off ourselves.

Now I'm 14.My friends and I have a lot of stress at school.I'm good at math and one of my best friends is good at English.We often help each other.I help him make progress in math.It really does work!Many of my classmates who are bad at math come to ask me for help.They become my friends as well…

It was not easy to learn different kinds of musical instruments well at the same time.I still remembered when I took my piano lessons，my mother said worriedly to my father， "Why hasn't he made any progress with so much practice？'' I tried to play the piano better.However，my parents never got a strong feeling of satisfaction with my piano performance.
From then on，I didn't play any musical instrument until my old friend Larry invited me to play the violin with him when I was 60.It made me enjoy the joy of playing music again.One day，Larry asked me to take part in a violin performance with him.At first，thinking of my past，I wanted to refuse.1 expected to hear his words that I would become more skilled with practice on stage（舞台），But he said， "OK，only play if you want to，" I was shocked by the unexpected answer.
In fact，nobody made me do it，so I had to make a choice by myself.I was willing to catch the chance this time.After a long and careful preparation，I played the violin with Larry.Though I didn't lose all my nervousness，it was enough for me to overcome my fear.Finally，I offered a full performance in front of the audience（观众）.
However，happy times always didn't last long，my friend Larry passed away .It was a hard hit，but his influence stayed.It helped me not only in music，but on all sides of my life.Whenever I paid attention to what I wanted to do，joy usually took the place of fear.
