When I was in college, I remember hearing about a book titled “Looking Out for Number One”. I never read the book, but the title has always stuck with me. I hadn’t been taught to be so selfish that I should be focused on only . I thought I needed to be others and, along the way, I would also be helping myself. Now, I realized I have at least considered learning more about looking out for number one.

Jeffrey Gitomer asks the question, “Who is the most person in the world?” Most people answer, the customer. He then asks, if there were only two people left in the world, the and you, who would you want to survive (生存)? Now the answer is me.

It makes me sense that if we can’t help ourselves first, we will never be to help others. We all need to learn to control our lives and make the best for ourselves. That will put us in the position to help others in the . But many of us are to understand this.

It has been said that happiness will bring success, but success doesn’t bring happiness. We all want to be happy and . For some of us can be very happy when our basic needs are and our family are safe. Others will high levels of success thinking that will bring happiness. I’m sure we can think of a person who is very successful, according to the world’s standards (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)), but they don’t appear to be happy . This is they have been so busy working for somebody’s goals that they haven’t considered their own needs.

How do you like your school? Have you ever written to your headmaster to express your idea? Here are some letters written by students from different schools.

Luke, 14, from Jiangsu

I will give some suggestions about our school uniform. In our school, we students have to wear uniform every day. But the yellow and green sports kit(服裝)looks really dark and old. It can’t stand for young and lively spirit. We can add some red or orange colors and make a new type of uniform. I hope our headmaster will think about it.

Danny, 14, from Zhejiang

I have two suggestions for my headmaster. First of all, I think we should have more hobby classes in science , such as plane model making class and computer programming class. It is really boring to study basic subjects all the time. And second, I hope we can have more PE lessons or more time for physical exercise. Lots of students now don’t have a strong enough body.

Sam, 15, from Shanxi

I’d like to say thank you to my headmaster. About one week ago, I got a bad cold after playing basketball. Our headmaster came to me after he knew about it. He took care of me until my parents came. I really want to thank him for that.

Helen, 14, from Shandong

In the letter I wrote, I want to talk about the possibility of personal(個性化的)classes. Now many middle schools are trying the “personal class” system. Students don’t have regular classes. They can choose lessons they want to take. I think it is more effective. And it is also good for exercise. We don’t have to stay in one classroom all the time.

1.Luke gives some suggestions about ______ in his letter.

A. hobby classes B. personal classes

C. school uniform D. basketball playing

2.The reasons why Danny gives two suggestions are that ______.

A. students have too few classes every day and they love sports

B. studying basic subjects only is boring and students are too weak

C. hobby classes are interesting and students have no PE lessons at all

D. students want to cancel the basic subjects and they want to have more sports lessons

3.All the students except ______ write to the headmaster to complain about something.

Not only a popular singer was Yao Beina, but also she was an energetic and warm-hearted angel. She had her corneas (眼角膜) donated to two men who needed them, which helped them see the world clearly again.
