It is very important to keep healthy. I have a neighbor. She is 1 old lady. Although she is over seventy, she can do all housework by herself. And she often learns something new in the newspaper or on TV. She 2 even surf the Internet. She likes doing sports and I often see her do Tai Chi in the morning and dance in the evening. She looks like a young and beautiful lady every day. Last week a reporter from a magazine interviewed her and asked how she kept so young and healthy, She 3 her answers with a smile.
" It is quite easy. Keep your mind active, be 4 in the world around you, and learn 5 least one new thing every day. Try to do different 6 of housework and do exercise as often as you can. Don't think you are too old 7 back to school. I know a man who entered a medical college 8 he was 70 years old. He studied there for 6 years and now he is a doctor. 9 man went to a tennis school at the age of 71 and now he is good at playing tennis."
It's true that people nowadays are under great pressure(压力). People can hardly keep an active mind. But people should know that a good attitude(态度) to life and keeping learning new things are very important to keep 10 . I think my neighbor is a good example to everyone.
Once there were two neighbors living next to each other. One of them was a retired(退休的) teacher and the other was an engineer. 1 of them planted the same plants in their gardens. The retired teacher was giving a small number of water to his plants and he didn't always give a full attention to them. But the other neighbor gave a lot of water to his plants. He 2 them too well. One day,a rainstorm started suddenly during the night. The next morning, the engineer was 3 to see that his plants came off from the roots(根). But the retired teacher's plants grew very well. The engineer went to the retired teacher and asked," We both grew the same plants together. I took care of my plants 4 than you did for yours, and even gave them more water. Still, my plants came off from the roots, while yours didn't. How is that possible?" The retired teacher smiled and said," You gave your plants more attention and water, but because of that they didn't need to work 5 for water. You made it easy for them. While I gave them just proper(恰当的) water and 6 their roots search(寻找) for more. And their roots went deeper and deeper, which made them 7 "
This story is about parenting where children are like plants. 8 everything is given to them, they will not understand the hard work it takes to have those things. Teach them 9 to walk, but let them go their own way. Sometimes it's best to guide them but not to 10 them
