It is a fact that people die every moment of every day. However, the deaths of those who have done great work can be especially shocking and heart-breaking.
On Jan. 26, Kobe Bryant, one of the most excellent NBA players in history, died in a terrible flight accident which killed him and eight others, including his 13-year-old daughter Gianna Bryant.
Following Bryant's death, people from all walks of life have paid honor to the basketball superstar—not just for his achievements in playing basketball, but also for his personality and the courage he has shown to us.
In the basketball world, Bryant is listed among the top players of all time. He entered the NBA directly from high school as a born basketball player. He played for 20 years with the LA Lakers and helped the team win 5 NBA winners. He was fast, skillful and brave. which brought him the nickname (绰号) Black Mamba, one of the most deadly snakes in the world. "Mamba spirit is that you're going, you're competing, and you're not worried about the end result," Bryant once said.
Besides basketball, Bryant was known as a successful businessman, an Oscar-winning filmmaker and a proud father of four daughters.
The fact that Bryant is no longer with us is sad. We'll never see him give another interview or play in an-other game. But the work he has done will keep encouraging us years after his death.

Very often, when we see young people sitting there. Looking at the screen of a mobile phone and smiling, we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question" how much time do they actually spend on media(传播媒介)daily?", the answer is surprising young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today's young people seem to have become crazy multitaskers. They often use media when doing other activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text, and some others listen to music. But what do young people think of this? A survey showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches have given a different answer "media multitaskers" did worse in tests.
Scientists did research among more than 400 students. It showed that those who texted a lot had more trouble sleeping and did worse in their study. In another research, students who didn't text during a lesson took down a lot more notes than those who were texting. Similar research also found that students who texted when doing schoolwork had lower overall(总体的) grades.
According to research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night, he or she will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed. On the one hand, young people stay up late to check messages and information. They may also be woken up by messages they receive. On the other hand, even the light from a screen could influence their sleep. Some other researches also show that children who use media at night go to bed later, get fewer hours of sleep each week, and become sleepy more easily during the daytime.
Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better Love plays a main role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with love and care. They teach us what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we don't always care about it. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands others' feelings.
Happiness can bring people a peaceful mind. No mind is happy without peace. Sadness comes from Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a special way success brings money, pride and self-respect.
Hope is what keeps life going. Hope makes us dream. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be brighter dull. So what we can choose is to work hard today, so that we can enjoy a better tomorrow.
A villager made his living by selling seeds(种子) in the market.
He had ten bags with him, which he would carry to another village to buy seeds. Of the ten bags, one was broken. Although it was in poor condition, the villager would carry it with all the other bags to get the seeds from another village.
One day, the broken bag thought, "I am just a broken bag with many holes, why does my owner take me along to bring seeds? "It then asked the villager, "Why don't you throw me away? You know I am useless. I drop all the seeds you put in me. "
The villager smiled, "I will tell you what good you have done to me and others." Saying this, the villager took the broken bag outside and said," Do you see all these trees? These trees are all along the way from this village to the next, from where I buy seeds. These trees have grown from the seeds you have been dropping along the way. "
The villager continued, "These trees give cool shade to tired people on hot sunny days. They also give oxygen(氧气) to humans and animals. Can't you see you've done the world a great service?"
The broken bag was happy to learn all this. It realized that everyone has something good to offer to the world!
