the development of our country and bringing help and happiness to others is success.

To achieve success, we should, first of all, have a clear long-term goal in our life. Besides, we should have short term goals in different periods of life. As we know, it is these short term goals that make our long-term goal possible. Second, we should be both perseverant and hardworking. Whatever we do, there are always two possibilities: success and failure. We should never lose heart when we come across difficulties or when we are confronted with failure. Instead, we should learn from our experience, build up our confidence and work even harder and smarter towards our purpose. Third, we should follow the examples of those who are successful and learn from them. Finally, we should try to get along well with our classmates and colleagues. We should care for each other and help each other in our study, our work and our life, because team work is of great importance in the realization of our dream.

If we can follow these principles, we will certainly achieve remarkable success in our life.

The Function of Humor——幽默的作用

提纲：

1．幽默的重要性 2．其作用的多面性 3．如何拥有幽默

Humor has become one of the most attractive characteristics a successful person must have nowadays, not only because it can bring laughter and happiness to people, but also because it shows a man’s ability.

A little joke can easily remove an unpleasant conflict, change the talking atmosphere and make it harmonious. Under such circum stances, businessmen can make a big deal and politicians can sign an agreement, which are good bases for future cooperation. Some humor enables people to feel bitterness from laughs, which we call “cold humor” or “black humor”. At this time, humor is like a sharp sword, which may pierce people’s heart. People may wipe sad tears after laughing. It often appears in movies and novels.

Humor plays a great role on some important occasions, when a person, especially a great one, is judged from such a capacity. It can help leaders to point out shortcomings or wrong behavior of his subordinates, without letting them feel embarrassed. So sometimes we also regard it as a certain kind of art. Humor is important in everyone’s life because you can deal with all kinds of embarrassing occasion with this special skill.

Altruism and Egoism——利他主义和利己主义

提纲：

1．利他主义是??

2．现在社会中有许多利他主义者和利他主义的好人好事，但是我们身边还存在许多利己主义者和损人利己的事

3．我们相信社会中，利他主义的事件会越来越多，而利己主义的事件越来越少

Altruism means consideration of the happiness and the good of others before one's own; an altruist is a person who is habitually good to others. The opposites of altruism and altruists are egoism and egoists.

To our delight, we have a good many altruists in cur society and we see a good many altruistic deeds every day. For instance, a stranger gets lost in an unfamiliar place and a native lolls him the way patiently or even leads the way. Nowadays, countless Chinese people are involved voluntarily in the Hope Project, which is carried out throughout the nation to help the drop-outs in poverty-stricken areas to go hack to school.

To our regret, we still have same egoists in our society and we still see egoistic actions when we look around us. While people are queuing for their tickets, a man pushes into the queue out of turn. While a child is crying for help in a lake, some passersby walk on indifferently. While the government is calling far honesty some officials are still embezzling public property or taking bribes. Phenomena of this kind are too numerous to list.

What a pity that the world is full of contradictions! There are altruism and altruists, but there are egoism and egoists. Nevertheless, it is no use sighing. Now that society is developing and roan is making progress, we have good reasons to believe that there will be more and more altruistic deeds, but fewer and fewer egoistic actions.

1．我最难忘的教师

I have many teachers in my life, but one of them I can never forget. She was my English teacher in my middle school. She was about forty then, and looked younger than her age. She was a kind, qualified and capable teacher.

She was always patient, and never tired of helping her students. Whenever students turned to her with questions, she would not hesitate to help them. She was good at teaching and organized her class well. Her teaching was interesting, attractive and knowledgeable. Before starting a new lesson, she would give students several questions to guide their preparation, and tell them some background knowledge to enlarge their knowledge. In class, sometimes in order to emphasize important points, she would tell witty stories. She corrected our exercises promptly and carefully. In this way her students could also learn from their mistakes.

With her help, all her students made rapid progress in English study. Students liked her because they regarded her as their best friend as well as their best teacher. How lucky we were to be her students! I'll keep her in mind forever.
