24、Parents can be very important teachers in our lives. However, they are not always the best teachers. Parents may be too close to their children emotionally (感情上). Sometimes they can only see their children through the eyes of a protector. For example, a teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable experience. However, it might seem too dangerous to a parent.

Another problem is that parents may expect their children’s interests to be similar to their own. If they love science, they may try to force their child to love science too. But what if their child’s true love is art, or writing, or car repair?

Parents usually want to pass on their values to their children. But should children always believe what their parents do? When children are young, they believe that their parents are always right. But when they get older, they will have different ways of thinking.

The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives. Our parents teach us, our teachers teach us, and our friends teach us. Books and newspapers and televisions also teach us. All of them are valuable.

25、   One day, the employees of a company in St Louis, MS returned from their lunch break and were greeted with a sign on the front door. The sign said: “Yesterday, the person who had stood in your way to success passed away. We invite you to join the funeral (葬礼) in the gym.”

At first, everyone was sad to hear that one of their colleagues (同事) had died, but after a while, they started feeling curious about who this person might be.

The excitement grew as they arrived at the gym to pay their last respects. Everyone wondered, “Who is this person who was in my way? Well, at least he’s no longer here!”

One by one, the employees got closer to the coffin (棺材). When they looked inside it, they were speechless. They stood over the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul (灵魂).

There was a mirror inside the coffin. Everyone who looked inside it could see himself or herself. There was also a sign next to the mirror that said: “There is only one person who can stop yourself from succeeding: it is YOU.”

You are the only person who can change your life. You are the only person who can influence your happiness and your success. You are the only person who can help yourself.

Your life does not change when your family changes, when your friends change, when your boss changes, and when your company changes.

26、In ancient China, willow branches (柳枝) were often used as a gift to friends and family members who would leave. Do you know why willow branches are a symbol of saying goodbye?

One reason is that willow trees are strong. They can live in any soil, wet or dry, north or south.

Because of this special feature, when saying goodbye to loved ones, giving a willow branch is a way to tell them you hope they will easily get used to their new living environment.

Another reason is that, in Chinese, the pronunciation for the willow tree “柳” is similar to the character “留”. So giving a willow branch in ancient China was like asking the others to stay, even though you know that they must leave.

It’s said that this custom became popular during the Han Dynasty. At that time, Baqiao, a bridge in Chang’an, today’s Xi’an, was a common place to say goodbye. People often stopped there and handed willow branches to people who were going to depart.

Willow branches, as a symbol of saying goodbye, were often mentioned in poems, especially at the time of the Tang and Song dynasties.

27、Thousands of people in Vietnam are worried about a giant turtle (巨型龟). They are worried about it because they think it’s sacred. A sacred object is something that you treat with great respect because you believe it is very important.

There is a legend (传说) about the turtle. It is said that the turtle helped to protect a Vietnamese king nearly 600 years ago. Many people in Vietnam believe in the legend even though experts say the turtle can only live 80 to 100 years.

Now this turtle is in trouble and it needs medical help. It has some sores (疮) on its neck and legs. There has been the news about the turtle on the front page of newspapers. People are worried!

The reason why the turtle is ill may be the seriously polluted lake that the turtle swims in. The lake is full of rubbish.

Hundreds of Vietnamese people have been working all day and all night to try to clean the lake. They even used sandbags to make a little island so the turtle could rest on it. They tried to get the turtle to go onto the island, but it didn’t. They even asked the policemen for help, but the turtle kept escaping from them.
