I'm 16. On a recent night, while I was busy thinking about important social issues, like what to do over the weekend and who to do it with, I overheard my parents talking about my future. My dad was upset not the usual stuff that he and Mom and, I guess, a lot of parents worry about like which college I'm going to, how far away it is from home and how much it's going to cost. Instead, he was upset about the world his generation is turning over to mine, a world he fears has a dark and difficult future—if it has a future at all.
He sounded like this: "There will be a pandemic that kills millions, a devastating energy crisis, a horrible worldwide depression and a nuclear explosion set off in anger."
As I lay on the living room couch, eavesdropping(偷听) on their conversation, starting to worry about the future my father was describing, I found myself looking at some old family photos.
There was a picture of my grandfather in his Citadel uniform. He was a member of the class of 1942, the war class. Next to his picture were photos of my great-grandparents, Ellis Island immigrants. Seeing those pictures made me feel a lot better. I believe the world my generation grows into is going to get better, not worse. Those pictures helped me understand why.
I considered some of the awful things my grandparents and great-grandparents had seen in their life times: two world wars, killer flu, a nuclear bomb. But they saw other things, too, better things: the end of two world wars, the polio(小儿麻痹症) vaccine, passage of the civil rights laws. They even saw the Red Sox won the World Series—twice.
I believe that my generation will see better things, too—that we will witness the time when AIDS is cured and cancer is defeated. I will see things as inconceivable to me today as a moon shot was to my grandfather when he was 16, or the Internet to my father when he was 16. Ever since I was a little kid, whenever I've had an awful day, my dad would put his arm around me and promise me that "tomorrow will be a better day." I challenged my father once, "How do you know that?" He said, "I just do." I believe him. My great-grandparents believed that, and my grandparents, and so do I.
If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.
It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learned to write.
Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call "remembered history". Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.
There is always something that happens in the world that everyone fears will happen to their town, city or country: natural disasters. The scariest part of it is that no one will ever see it coming. Though technology helps us prepare, but it never actually tells the people what time it's going to hit. It is always estimated, but the result is never 100% accurate.
However, that is not the point of this article. Two different natural disasters in two different parts of the world have happened in the past few weeks. One is a major flood that has hit Louisiana in the United States. The other was an earthquake that hit Amatrice, Italy. However, there is a major difference in the news coverage(新闻报道) of the two tragedies.
As for the flooding in Louisiana, it is reported that this disaster is the worst to hit the United States since super-storm Sandy and it'll cost at least $30 million. In only the first couple of weeks, 13 people had died. However, like me, many people did not hear about this tragic event. I did not learn about it until about three weeks after it happened.
In Italy, however, it covered all media instantly. The earthquake in Italy happened on Tuesday morning. That same day, I was on Twitter and that was all that was over the news feed. Every other post was about the earthquake. Some would have the opinion that Amatrice, Italy was one of the most beautiful towns in that country. I got in deep sorrow because there were more people killed in this quake than the flooding. So far, they have a total of 73 dead and over one-hundred missing.
I understand that technically the earthquake in Italy was worse than the floods in Louisiana. However, I believe that if a natural disaster happens, they all should be equally covered and taken equally as serious. We are one world united and should be there for all of the people out there who are in need of help. We may not be able to accurately predict disasters, but we can surely lend a hand out for the needy.
Making new friends can be challenging for some people, but it's definitely rewarding. . They are the ones who walk through life together, share our ups and downs, and pains and joys. If you take a look at the people who seem to make friends easily, you may find that their social skills were likely all picked up over time. For this same reason, you can learn to become more sociable through time and practice. Here are my personal tips to get new friends:
Realize your fear is in your head
The first step is to develop a healthy mental image of meeting new people. Some of us see meeting new people as a scary event. We are concerned about making a good impression. The more we think about it, the scarier it seems. . Therefore, there is no need to worry about them.
Don't change yourself to make new friends. That's the worst thing you can do. Just be yourself. That way, potential new friends will know you as you, and they'll use that to decide if they want to take the friendship a step further. It's all about being you. The truest friendships are built with both parties accepting each other for who they are.
Be there for them
A friendship is a supportive union between two people. Be there for your friends where you can. When you help your friends, don't do so with the expectation of being helped next time. . I find that the satisfaction I get from helping others and knowing they are better off is a reward greater than anything I can get in return.
Make the effort to stay in touch
Continual effort is required to maintain the friendship. Ask your friends out every once in a while. . For some of my best friends, we meet only once every few months. Yet, there's never any doubt that we're closely connected and we will be there for each other when needed.
A. Be yourself
B. Change yourself
C. Instead, help unconditionally
D. You can learn a lot from a good friend
E. Actually, all these fears are just in our heads
F. After all, friends form a big part of our life for most of us
G. The strength of your relationship is not measured by how frequently you meet
Parents, the most selfless people on Earth are the biggest reason for your existence. However, we often1to appreciate their efforts. And by the time we realize this, it's2 late. So, don't wait for any 3 day to say sweet things to your parents and tell them how 4 you're for whatever they've done for you.
First, 5 you often forget to call your parents and 6 them how much you miss them, they may often feel you're not making any 7 to stay in touch with them.
Second, you should hug them. You can't possibly 8 whatever they've done for you, but this small gesture(姿势) will 9 make them feel special.
Third, let your emotions out in time, because you 10 know whether there is a tomorrow to express your 11. We all have been mean to our 12 at times, and have said things that 13 them deeply. If so, all you can do is to apologize from the bottom of your 14.
Finally, 15 them to know that they're the real superheroes in your life. You can never 16 them enough. They've always been your 17 to move forward. They taught you all the small and big things about life. They always18 you to work hard and become a successful person in life. Even though you may have 19in a race or failed in an exam, they were and still are your number one 20. So, express yourself before your parents before it's too late.
I wonder if you have received an invitation to spend a Moon Day, is officially celebrated on July 20 every year.

Moon Day is not celebrated (mere) by NASA, but also by space fans. One way to celebrate Moon Day is to make something about the moon like cutting paper moons. Children are made to bake cookies and cut them in the shape of the moon, apart from learning some facts about the moon on this occasion. That we explore the moon on Google Moon is a great idea to get familiar our natural satellite. is especially important that we celebrate Moon Day with children. In this way, children can learn about happened on July 20, 1969, and understand the importance of this event. Many people have devoted all their lives to the research into the moon. As for young people, they must go to great (long) to study hard for the future even there is a long way to go!

I'm worried that you've been addicted to share pictures in WeChat circle recently. You even share all sort of photos in your daily life. Of course, WeChat makes better to understand each other and makes our life more colorful, which is very convenient for us to communicate with. However, there exist some potential trouble if we overshare. One serious problem is leaking privacy, that may cause a lot of trouble. Besides, oversharing can make others uncomfortably, for they think you are showing off.
Thus, neither should we post our personal information, or should we blindly add strangers to a list of friends. It's much wise to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful, such as reading books or taking exercise.
注意：1）写作词数为80左右；
