One day while I was working at a6 store near my college, I saw an old man come in with a little girl in a wheelchair(轮椅). He wanted to buy some7 and grapes. The little girl had no arms or legs. She was8 a white dress.
9 the old man pushed the wheelchair up to me I was busy with my work. When I10 the money from the old man, I looked back at the girl, who was giving me the11 , largest smile I have ever seen.12 her handicap(生理缺陷)was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl, whose smile gave me a better13 of life.

"Who needs a shopping mall if you have Taobao?" says Wang Lin, 28, a writer in Beijing. Taobao, China's largest online shopping site(网上购物网站), has become an important part of Wang Lin's life. She spends lots of money on Taobao.
More and more Chinese Internet users, like Wang, can find the joy of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students or young workers. More women shops online than men. Clothing and home-use products(产品) are the most popular online. It was reported that people spent more than 250 billion yuan shopping online last year, 80% through Taobao.
Taobao means "looking for treasure" in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao, from clothes to books, from candies to DVD players. You may question the security of online shopping. Wang Lin said, "It's very safe and convenient(便利的). If you get the products from the sellers and like them very much, the shop owner will get the money. You can also get your money back if you want to return the products."
Sometimes you may find it hard to make more progress(进步) in your study. At this time, I think you need to change yourself. Here are great ways for you to make more progress.
First, use notebooks(笔记本). Take one notebook with you in class and write down what the teacher says in class. This way will help you remember things.
Then, have a good sleep. Sleep is really important to each of us. Most of us need to sleep for seven to nine hours a night. But do you know how to have a good sleep? First of all, try to keep the same sleeping time every night, even on Saturdays and Sundays. Then, drink a glass of milk before you go to bed. I think these are good ways to help you have a good sleep.
Next, know when you work best. There are many studies showing advantages(好处) of night-time studying and early-morning studying. If you work late at night, make sure to give yourself some time to sleep in the morning.
Last, make good use of your learning way. Find out your learning ways first, and then try to find which way works best for you and use it often.
Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.
Communication(交流) is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟).
Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
Nearly every parent says that we never grow up, even when we are 16 or 17 years old. For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.
They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes. expensive school things. and even a dear bike. They think they always do everything for their children. But why their children still can't understand them? Does it mean that they still want more material(物质的) things? No. In fact, what they want is a true family. What does a true family mean? From here, we can get warmth, we can get consolation(安慰), and we can get happiness. And one important thing is that we can be stronger and more confident in the outside world because we know that we have a family. So I think that parents should sit down to talk with their children to let them know that they have a true family. No children want to be looked as little ones.
