骄阳似火，炙烤着大地。无情的太阳摧毁了我暑假一游的美梦。水珠确实也怕了这个炽热的火球，不知钻到哪个石缝乘凉去了，就连树啦、花啦、草啦个个无精打采，耷拉着脑袋，整个夏日一片死一般的寂静，一切毫无激情，由此让人更加压抑、窒息。

可这偏偏在这热得连知了都怕叫的天气里，一个苍老的背影划破这热的可怕的寂静。只见他背着竹篓，往返于两堆矿土间。他似乎毫不畏惧这似火的骄阳，犹如一座会走动的大山，步伐是那样的坚定、有力。他头上渗满汗水犹如断了线的珍珠，滴答、滴答……落在地上便溅起了一朵快乐的泥花，就像他脸上的微笑般可爱。

他——便是我的父亲。

为了一天20元工钱而不辞辛苦的父亲，由于家道中落，他才迫不得已来背矿……

只见他装的满满的一簸箕矿土，再将其端到背篓旁，借助腿的力量，将簸箕使劲向起一蹭，双臂使劲一抬一扣。将那沉甸甸的一簸箕矿土用比姚明扣篮还高十几倍的难度倒进了竹篓里，然后，再回去，再装满，再倒……直到竹篓装不下时，他才蹬下身去，竭尽全力要背起来，他向前倾时，没有把量好重量，连人带背篓栽整个倒在地……但他又艰难的爬起来，又去背。这一次，他拽住了旁边的树条，很吃力地站起来，树叶竟被摇得簌簌落了下来。他站起来了，吃力的又往上颠了颠，这才费劲的向前走去，他的腿微微发着颤，但脸上却微微露出了笑容。做着如此沉重的体力活，他依然在微笑，我知道他的微笑是在告诉他自己，他背起了希望，背起了他的责任。

泪水模糊了我的双眼，却遮不住父亲那劳累的身影，那驼的背，佝偻的腰……

When I was in middle school, I heard the English song Baby One More Time. Then I saw the music record, the girl was so sweet and pretty. She danced so well in the record, she was full of energy. Since then, I fell in love with Britney Spears, every girl wanted to be her. She was not only beautiful, but also could sing and dance so well. Britney Spears was my early idol, her energetic image attracted me so much. I was so crazy about her at that time. I believe that in every teenager’s dream, they will have an idol.

80元的棉服他穿了6年，却资助180多名贫困少年;一张床、一张桌子、一台旧电视、一辆电动车是他的全部家当，却有数百张汇款单，累计捐出50万元;23岁开始献血，18年献血超过8万毫升，相当于15个成年人血液的总和。一连串的数字引出了这位“献血大王”、“中国好人”王文清。他是江苏江都人，国际红十字人道主义宣传员。“我愿一生勇举红十字的火炬，不是照亮自己，而是照亮世界、照亮世上最痛苦需要帮助的人。”

若说学习是我们人生中的必经之路，那么阅读便是这条路上的精神支柱，它催我奋进，催我成长。

对阅读的喜爱，我似乎在很小的时候就已萌芽。路边的广告牌，公交车上的提示语，超市里的商品名……都是我阅读的条件，这些也为我今后的阅读之路奠定了基础。踏入幼儿园后，《帮我早读书》便成了我阅读的第一位“朋友”。或许是一种好奇，也或许是我与阅读有缘。慢慢的，我便成了妈妈的阅读者，也成了全班阅读的佼佼者。老师的夸奖与赞赏，同学的羡慕，还有妈妈那欣慰的笑容，让我深深体会到了阅读的快乐，收获到了阅读带给我的成就感。

我的知识在阅读中成长。

后来在曹文轩《草房子》的熏陶下，我的心灵开始成长。桑桑在“死里逃生”后的大彻大悟；杜小康的人格蜕变；秃鹤的重新认识自我，找回自尊……他们每一个少年都有一个属于自己的故事，每一个故事都有催人泪下的沧桑。我羡慕他们生活的充实，自然，向往他们性格的无拘无束，自由自在。或许对于同龄的我而言更多的是要珍惜，珍惜现在物质生活的优越，珍惜身边满满的关怀与爱。

我的心灵在阅读中成长。

初中以后的阅读空间几乎被繁重的学习任务占去，上课、作业、考试成了我生活的主旋律。慢慢地，听课不专心，作业不再一丝不苟，就连最爱的奥数课也没了兴趣。可是当我捧起《钢铁是怎样炼成的》时，保尔那信念坚定、自强不息、百折不挠的精神唤醒了我。我不再懊恼，不再彷徨，我开始认真对待每一项任务，我开始和同学们共同探讨，一起努力。我要向着我的梦想飞翔！

我的梦想在阅读中成长！

“读一本好书就如同和一个高尚的人在交谈。”成长路上有你们作伴，我不再孤单，更加坚强！

2016年12月20日消息，西安。2016年12月20日，西安滦镇派出所，被西安警方列为“十大逃犯”之一的刘某讲述他的十年逃亡历程。十年前，他是远近闻名的“能人”，因为承揽工程，家里日子过得红红火火。为了土方工程，他将别人砍成重伤开始逃亡，名列西安警方“十大逃犯”之一。十年逃亡路，自己东躲西藏、食不果腹不说，家中衰败妻子忧郁成疾，70岁的老母亲也在扫大街……沧桑巨变让这位逃犯鼓起勇气，走进了派出所自首。

2007年5月31日，26岁的刘某与同村村民严某岗、严某乐三人共同承包了一所大学的土方工程，但在后期施工过程中，多次遭到同村村民李某汉等人的阻挠。按说自己占着理，可以寻求法律途径解决纠纷，但当时年轻气盛的刘某选择靠武力解决此事。2007年6月2日，当李某汉等人再次来到工地阻挡施工时，刘某、严某岗和严某乐等人与对方发生暴力冲突。三人用马刀将李某汉两人当场砍伤，随后刘某三人逃离现场。经鉴定，伤者李某汉、李某分别为重伤和轻伤(偏重)。

西安市公安局长安分局滦镇派出所刑事立案并对刘某等三人展开抓捕。严某岗和严某乐到案后，因犯故意伤害罪，于2012年10月被依法判处四年、七年不等的有期徒刑，但刘某却一直负案在逃。刘某就像“人间蒸发”一般消失得无影无踪，被西安市公安局列为“全市十大网上逃犯”。这十年里，滦镇派出所的民警从未放弃对刘某的追逃，办案民警几乎与所有认识刘某的人见过面。为了断绝刘某继续逃跑的心理，办案民警根据线索，多次组织定点守候抓捕。办案民警薛凯介绍，开始去刘某家的时候，他的父母非常抵触，总认为警察是抓他儿子的。逢年过节民警给他们送去米面油，刘某的父亲生病了，民警还帮忙送到医院治疗，民警还找到老师，让多关照刘某的儿子……民警的这些行动，感化了刘某的父母，他们开始配合民警的工作。薛凯说：“在刘某逃亡前，他们家是当地的富裕户，现在他们家成了当地最穷的人家，家里就两间平房，东西基本都是十年前的。”

公安长安分局“清扫家园”行动开展以来，滦镇派出所民警再次加大了对刘某的抓捕和对其家人的规劝力度。2016年12月13日清晨，刘某推开滦镇派出所值班室的大门，寻找民警薛凯自首。薛凯说：“当时一个小伙子敲门进来，第一句话就说‘薛警官，我是刘某’。小伙子看起来非常面老，比户籍信息上的照片老多了。”讯问中，刘某向民警道出了十年逃亡生涯的辛酸。因为逃犯的身份，刘某一直东躲西藏，靠在西安周边的工地上搬砖下苦力维持生计。由于怕暴露身份，平常只能躲在工地里，对于薪水也不敢多提要求，每月只有寥寥几百元，老板经常坑他的工钱，他也不敢索要。有时看工地上来了警察，知道有可能是来抓他的，便不敢多待，只能逃跑另寻生计，几乎每天都在恐惧中艰难度过。

12月20日上午，在派出所里，刘某说起家中现状失声痛哭。“出事以后我逃了，家里生活一下子没了依靠。十年来，我只用公用电话给家里打过一两次电话。最近我偷偷去学校看孩子，我外甥从我面前过，都没认出我，当时我就崩溃了。”刘某说，看到家里现在的样子，民警对他父母妻儿那么关心，他实在不忍心再逃了。加上警方频繁的抓捕行动，他感觉自己逃不下去了，所以决定自首。目前，刘某已被长安警方刑拘，案件正在进一步审理中。

某英文网站举行专题征文活动。请根据下图，结合自己的生活实际，写一篇120-150词的英语短文。

注意：简要描述图片，并陈述自己的观点。

范文：

As is shown in the picture, two men had a big dinner in a restaurant, but much of the food was left and some was even untouched at all. When the waitress asked them to pack the remaining food, they felt very surprised, thinking that it was unbelievable for them to do things like that with too much money in their pocket.

It is a pity that many people act like the two men in the picture. In my view, we should pack the leftovers when we have meals outside. As we all know, saving is a fine tradition for our Chinese people and therefore we shouldnt waste a bit food. Also, there is not enough food in the world and there are many people starving. In addition, we students should form the habit of saving food and give away some to the people in need. Finally, we have the responsibility to help people around us realize the importance of saving.

Only in this way can we build up an economized society and live a happy and healthy life.

【参考译文】

如图所示，有两个人在一家餐馆里吃了一顿丰盛的晚餐，但剩下的大部分食物都没有了，有的甚至一点也不动。当女服务员要求他们把剩下的食物打包时，他们感到非常惊讶，认为他们在口袋里做太多的钱是不可信的。

可惜的是，许多人的行为像两个人在图片。在我看来，我们应该把剩菜打包当我们在外面吃饭。众所周知，储蓄是中国人民的优良传统，因此我们不应该浪费粮食。此外，世界上没有足够的食物，有许多人挨饿。此外，我们学生应该养成节约食物的习惯，并给有需要的人送一些食物。最后，我们有责任帮助身边的人认识到节约的重要性。

只有这样我们才能建立一个节约型社会和健康愉快的生活。

I like to see movie so much. When I have time, the first thing I’d like to do is to find the hot movies and then buy some snacks, enjoying my movie hour. After appreciating so many movies, The Lord of the Rings impresses me the most. This movie has three series and I like them all. Though the moive was made in about 2000, its technology is still not out of date. In the movie, the scenery is such beautiful that I can’t move my eyes away. It was shot in New Zealand and I have made up my mind that I must go there someday and have a look at the beautiful scenery. The movie shows me a scientific world with all kinds of creatures. The wizards, the hobbies, the elves, the orcs and so on. It broadens my vision.

导语：祸莫大于不知足，咎莫大于欲得。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的写作素材，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

一次，有黑、红、白三只老鼠帮助土地神逃过了灭顶之灾。为了表示感激之情，土地神答应给这三只老鼠一个特殊的奖赏：你能挖土挖多深，那多么深的土层就属于你的领地。

土地神警告它们，不要过于贪心，如果挖得过深，你们将难以返回地面而葬身地下。

这种奖赏令三只老鼠高兴万分，于是它们都使尽了全身的力气挖洞，至于挖多深的洞才是安全的，它们并不清楚，它们只能凭感觉。在它们看来，挖洞是它们的特长，它们可以用一半的力气挖到很深的地方，再用剩下一半的力气就可以安全地返回到地面上。

黑老鼠挖洞的速度很快。没过多久，它已经挖到了很深的地方。它十分兴奋，一想到它所挖的深度就是它的领地，它的力量就源源不断地涌出来。不知过了多久，它觉得自己的力气已经用去了一半，它决定休息一会儿，然后返回地面。对它来说，这么深的土层已经足够用了。

不一会儿，它的体力恢复了许多。它想，再挖一会儿也不会有什么危险，要不然，这样返回去太可惜了。于是，它又挖了许久。当它觉得有些累了的时候，开始提醒自己：不要再向下面挖了，如果不能返回地面，一切都完了。于是，它想沿着原来挖的路线向地面方向返回。

但此时，它又犹豫了。它想，现在也许红老鼠和白老鼠正全力向地下挖土呢，如果自己这样返回去，可能是挖得最浅的一只老鼠，那么获得的领地也是最少的，也就最没有面子了。

想到这，它决定冒险再向下挖一阵子。又挖了许久后，黑老鼠觉得身体很疲乏，有些吃不消了。它明白，现在已经有一定危险了。不过，它又咬了咬牙，心想：反正已经冒险了，索性就再冒一步险，将土层挖得更深一些。

尽管它时时感觉到危险，但是，黑老鼠总是能找到各种理由激励自己向更深的土层挖下去。

不知过了多久，它失去了知觉。它累死了。

红老鼠的经历与黑老鼠大致相同。它也累死了。

只有白老鼠活了下来。

土地神觉得十分伤感的同时，也感到一丝安慰。它想，这个世界上到底还是有不贪心的老鼠呀。它决定大力宣传白老鼠的事迹，告诉大家不贪心才是正确的生活选择。

于是，土地神迫不及待地问白老鼠是怎么想的。

白老鼠冷冷地回答道：“难道你没有发现我的两只爪子是残废的吗?”

贪心是人的一大弱点，如果控制不了自己的贪欲，那是一件十分危险的事情。

哲理：祸莫大于不知足，咎莫大于欲得。

同年12月1日，陈某涉嫌犯强奸罪被提起公诉。为使陈某无罪释放，同年12月15日晚，胡某、王某某与谢某某进行协商由胡某写一张“我和陈某认识，自愿与陈某发生性关系，我问陈某要钱他不给，我才去报案”的字条，付给她10000元，谢某某表示同意。

协议签订后，王某某先付给了谢某某2000元。2015年12月16日。谢某某出庭作证，表示自己是自愿与陈某发生性关系，并出具了字条。

作证后，王某某再给了谢某某8000元，谢某某180度的大转变，报案称自己被强奸，庭审时却说是自愿，办案人员认为其中必有猫腻，决定进一步侦查。

在强大法律攻势下，谢某某承认自己作假证，并于去年8月15日在深圳市福田区被抓获。同年8月26日、8月29日，王某某、胡某先后到警方投案，并如实交待其妨害作证的事实。同年9月底，陈某因犯强奸罪被判处有期徒刑3年零5个月。另，谢某某犯包庇罪，判处拘役5个月;胡某犯妨害作证罪，判处有期徒刑6个月;王某某犯妨害作证罪，判处拘役4个月。

幸福是什么(what is happiness?)

1．不同的人对幸福有不同的看法?

2．我对幸福的看法。

[范文]

happiness means different things to different people. for example, some people believe that if they have lots of money, they will be happy. they believe that if they are wealthy, they will be able to do anything they want, which means happiness. on the other hand, some people believe that holding a high position in the government is happiness. in this way, you have not onlymoney, but also many other things which can＇t be bought by money. however, other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness nor is holding a high position in the government. these people value their beliefs, or their intelligence, or their health. they think these can make them happy. for me, happiness is closely tied to my studies, my work and my family. when i made great progress in my studies, when i made contributions to the society through my work, when all the members in my family live in harmony, sharing good and sad times, i was happy. although the definition of happiness depends on each individual my "wealth" of happiness is in my studies, my work, and my family.

一百年过去了，岁月的风尘却难掩她的风华，多年前，北京三里河一个属于国务院的宿舍小区，全是三层楼的老房子，几百户中惟一一家没有封闭阳台、也没有室内装修的寓所——“为了坐在屋里能够看到一片蓝天”，便是杨绛的栖身之处。自1977年一家人搬进来，她就再没离开过。一晃三十多年了，曾经的“我们仨”，只剩下这位即将在7月17日迎来百岁诞辰的老人，她有时也会喃喃自语，“家在哪里，我不知道，我还在寻觅归途。”

但从那时起，杨绛就把这间寓所称为“人生的客栈”，欢乐与伤悲来来往往，都成了过客，已没有什么可以扰乱她平静的心灵。杨绛开始独自一人全身心整理钱钟 书的学术遗物——她把这叫做“打扫现场”，每日的生活简单而规律，笔耕不辍，深居简出。在她身上，人们往往忘掉时间的残酷：一百年无情而漫长，而这位女性 始终一如既往的柔韧、清朗、独立，充满力量，也给予温暖??

人生不可以没有理想

“理想是石，敲出星星之火;理想是火，点燃熄灭的灯;理想是灯，照亮夜行的路;理想是路，引你走到黎明……”人生如蜡，理想如芯，没有了理想，人生还有何意义?有梦想萦绕的日子是宝贵的，有理想相伴的感觉是充实的。理想，驱散了人生路上的每一处黑暗!

历，无数能人志士、文人墨客、能工巧匠都是因为拥有理想，才使得人生更加有意义，作出更多非凡成就。

理想是沙漠中的绿洲，给予你生存的希望。司马迁年轻时遵从父亲遗愿，立志写一部能够“藏之名山，传之后人”的史书。在他着手撰写这部史书期间，受李陵案牵连被捕入狱，受尽酷刑，司马迁一度打算自杀，却因撰写史书心愿未了而顽强地活下来，历时18载，终于完成《史记》这部着作，史料丰富翔实，备受后人推崇，开创了我国纪传体通史的先河。

理想是大海中的灯塔，给予你前进的方向。王羲之酷爱书法，自小立志成为大书法家，每天勤学苦练，老师却将他的字称作“死字”。为此王羲之曾一蹶不振，后来受父母劝导，迷惘间入山拜师学艺，日复一日、年复一年地练习，直到他写完第十八缸水后，师傅才允许他出师。自此其书法已成气候，字体端秀清新，“飘若浮云，矫若惊龙”，被后人传赞为“书圣”。

理想是风雨中的港湾，给予你无穷的斗志。鲁班出生工匠世家，从小耳濡目染继承了精湛的技术，并立志要将它发扬光大。一次，国王下达任务，要求20天内建造一座宫殿，可完成宫殿需要300根巨木，凭当时的工具根本无法按时完成。鲁班一度意志消沉，让弟子们离开，准备一人承担罪责。但想到自己未竞的理想，又重新燃起斗志，经过反复实践研究，终于制造出“锯”，大幅提高了采伐速度，按时完成了任务。从此，鲁班信心大增，遇事不再颓丧，通过仔细观察生活，又陆续发明了刨子、云梯等工具，其美名在民间广泛流传，对后代工匠技术的进步产生了深远影响。

如果没有理想，人生就像一艘无舵的航船，飘飘荡荡，没有方向。

如果没有理想，人生就像一只无头的苍蝇，哼哼嗡嗡，到处乱撞。

如果没有理想，人生就像一只折翅的苍鹰，跌跌撞撞，缺少目标。

让我们用理想的明灯驱散生活的迷雾，照亮人生的路途，让我们在崇高理想的指引下，一路披荆斩棘，努力实现自己的人生价值!

Nowadays ther are a lot of false advertisements in society. They have caused many harms to society. Generally, their harms can be listed as follows. First, they exaggerate the functions of the goods they advertise and mislead consumers. Second , some advertisements contain obscene contents and bring about spiritual pollution. Third, they seriously damage the credit of businesses because the shops which sell those goods will be distrusted and even considered the conspirators of those advertisers by consumers. Personally, I am usually vigilant against any advertisements and so I have never been taken in. However, some people are credulous and are easily taken in. Therefore, in my opinion, effective measures must be taken to ban false advertisements and protect consumers interests. First, all the advertisements must be strictly censored by the authorities concerned before they are published. Besides, severe punishment must be inflicted on those who publish illegal advertisements. In conclusion, false advertisements must be eliminated in our society.

2、举一例说明

3、讲求诚信的意义

Almost all of us heard the story Here Comes the Wolf when we were little

kids. What we can learn from the story is that we must be honest. However,

therere lots of phenomena of dishonesty nowadays.

Being dishonest does great harm not only to other people but also to

yourself. Take the case of fake milk powder for example. After drinking this

kind of milk, the babies had big heads while their legs and arms were still

thin, which badly affected their health. To our great relief, the producers got

accused and punished for all the serious consequences in the end.

Having the reputation of being honest and reliable will make other people

trust you, which will provide you many benefits and give you opportunities that

others may not get. Being honest, you will find it easier to cooperate with

others and people will be friendly to you and support you. In a sense, if life

is a longjourney, honesty will be the backpack that should be taken along all

the way.

Lets pick up our backpackhonesty, and start the wonderful journey!

Strong Will

Since I go to high school, I live in the school and stay away from my

parents.

I have three roommates. At the beginning, we have trouble in staying in the

same room, but now we have got used to it. One of my roommates impresses me so

much. Since she came to our room, she has kept the habit of reading novels when

we go to bed. She told me that when she lived with her parents, she dared not to

read because her mother would blame her for sleeping late. Now she is very happy

that she is out of control, it seems that she is free. But I feel sorry for her,

because she is short-sighted now. What’s more, she is lagging behind other

students in the study. Staying away from her parents, she is not strong enough

to behave herself.

We should have the strong will and behave ourselves.

坚强的意志

自从我上了高中，我就住在学校，远离父母。

我有3个室友，刚开始，我们不习惯同处一室，但是如今，我们已经习惯了。有一个室友让我印象很深刻，自从她住进我们的房间，她就在我们睡觉的时候保持看小说的习惯。她告诉我们在她和父母住在一起的时候，她不敢看小说，因为她妈妈会责怪她那么晚睡觉。如今她很高兴再也不受控制了，似乎她得到了自由。但是我为她感到遗憾，因为她现在已经近视，而且，在学习方面也落后于其他同学。离开了父母，她不够强大，无法自律。

我们应该有坚强的意志，并且自律。

A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do not

A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. So, as a police officer, I have some urgent things to say to good people.

Day after day my men and I struggle to hold back a tidal wave of crime. Something has gone terribly wrong with our once-proud American way of life. It has happened in the area of values. A key ingredient is disappearing, and I think I know what it is: accountability .

My job as a police pfficer is to impose accountability on people who refuse, or have never learned, to impose it on themselves. But as every policeman knows, external control on peoples behavior is far less effective than internal restraints such as guilt, shame and embarrassment.

Fortunately there are still communities smaller towns, usually where schools maintain discipline and where parents hold up standards that proclaim:

In this family certain things are not tolerated they simply are not done!

Yet more and more, especially in our large cities and suburbs, these inner restraints are loosening. Your typical robber has none. He considers your property his property; he takes what he wants, including your life if you enrage him.

The main cause of this break-down is a radical shift in attitudes. Thirty years ago, if a crime was committed, society was considered the victim. Now, in a shocking reversal, its the criminal who is considered victimized: by his underprivileged upbringing, by the school that didnt teach him to read, by the church that failed to reach him with moral guidance, by the parents who didnt provide a stable home.

“爱国”二字是神圣的。爱国是一种崇高的感情，是一个民族精神财富中最珍贵的，它具有巨的向心力和凝聚力。爱国的感情在一切感情之上，它是一种纽带，一种号令。没爱有国，国家也就不存在了;不讲爱国，国家将是一盘散沙;没有爱国主义，就不可能抵御外侮，一击就破。

爱国，就意味着国家的利益高于一切，就意味着无条件地服从国家的召唤。当我们在巨大的个人利益诱惑面前，当我们通过自身努力学有所成之时，当国家面临生死存亡关头时，我们千万别忘了我们的国家。我们要用生命和汗水捍卫我们国家的尊严。如果因为一已私利而损害了国家利益，其人将成为历史的罪人，永远遭人唾弃。

生命是如此的短暂，我们应该好好珍惜这短暂而美好的时光，抓住这可贵的瞬间，多一些美好，少一些烦恼，就让那些鸡毛蒜皮的小事随风而去吧，不要总是斤斤计较，愁眉苦脸的。

如果每一个人都像肥皂一样，每天就不会愁眉不展。生活中总会有一些磕磕碰碰，难免会留下一些脏兮兮的污垢。不要让这些污垢污染了你快乐的心，来吧，用水洗一洗，把这些污垢洗到九霄云外去。

如果每一个人都像糖块一样，每天就会收获无穷无尽的快乐。光有一颗热情快乐的心，还远远不够呢。你应该以微笑面对身边的每一个人，传递正能量，乐于奉献。不要自私，虽然这样会使你的糖块身子越变越小，却可以使你身边的人越笑越甜美。

如果每一个人都像大海一样，每天就会无忧无虑。困难有什么可怕的？川流不息的大海，就像宽大的胸怀，不管有多少忧愁，多少烦恼，多少不顺心，一切都会被宽容，被包容，那么你每天都会是快乐的。

如果每一个人都像月亮一样，每天就不会有那么多苦恼了。月亮朴素清凉，在夜晚发射出柔和的光辉，就像漆黑的夜晚中的一盏路灯。她不与太阳征名利，只是每晚都在默默地等待，静静的守候。

如果每一个人都像海绵一样，每天就会痛苦并快乐着。在亲人与朋友的面前，把苦水都吸进了肚子里，并且炫耀着自己被幸福撑得好饱好饱。为别人分担忧愁，虽然痛苦，但是非常快乐。

我要要以乐观积极的态度，开开心心地过好每一天！
