Steve Jobs was famous for starting Apple Computers. In a speech to graduating students at Stanford University, Jobs told students about some of his life-changing experiences. Jobs believed these experiences helped him achieve success.
Jobs’s own mother was a college student. As a young mother, she felt unable to bring Jobs up so she put him up for adoption (领养). Jobs’s adopted parents were simple working-class people. When Jobs was 17, his parents used their savings to send him to college.
After six months of college, Jobs found he couldn’t see the value in it. He had no idea what he wanted to do with his life and no idea about how college was going to help him figure it out. And he was spending all of the money his parents had saved. So he decided to drop out (退学).
Jobs was lucky because he knew what he loved to do. He started Apple Computers in his parents’ garage (车库) with a friend when he was 20. In just ten years, Apple grew into a $2 billion company. However in 1985, Jobs was fired (解雇) from the company. Jobs was surprised. He lost everything at once. He quickly realized that he still loved what he did, and over the next five years, he started two highly successful companies. Later, he worked for Apple again and lived every day as if it was his last.

What colour is your name? What colour is Wednesday? These questions might sound strange to most people, but some can answer right away. One person says her name is the colour red. For another person, Wednesday is blue. These people have a condition called synesthesia (通感). This means they experience two senses at the same time. For these people, the senses
of smell, sound, sight, touch, and taste are not separate (分开的). They might see and also hear
colours, for example, or hear as well as feel sounds.
The most common form of synesthesia is to hear sounds as colours. A person with synesthesia might hear the number “three” as blue or the letter “D” as red. Someone might always see green upon hearing the word “April”. Another person might see different colours while listening to music. Some people also taste colours. To one person, beef might taste blue and to another, yellow. Some people experience feelings in colour. For example, one person with synesthesia reports feeling pain as the colour orange.
Another form of synesthesia is to experience sounds or tastes as shapes. Some people see music as squares and circles (圆形). Some people taste a sweet as a smooth ball.
There are other forms of synesthesia, as well. For one man, different words have different tastes. Some words taste like pork; others taste like potatoes or eggs.
Synesthesia is not a common condition. Perhaps only one person in every 5,000 has it. For these people, the everyday world can be interesting.

You might even see them advertised on billboards in your town. Point these out to your parents and encourage them to find out more about these programs.

They may eventually realize you are right about smoking.
If your parents agree to stop smoking, be their biggest supporter. Ask if there is anything you can do when they feel the desire to smoke.

Five Tricks to Make Your Memory Better
Remembering things, like names, dates, and other fine details is just like playing basketball. It's also a skill that can be practiced. The five memory tricks below can help train your memory.
Imagine what you want to take before you get it
There's something about walking into another room or passing through a doorway that changes our short-term memory and makes us forget what we went there for. Think about your purpose before you leave the present room, you'll increase your chances of remembering what you want.
Learn the chunking technique(组块技术)
We can only store a limited number of things in our short-term memory-about four to seven different items. The chunking technique is helpful for us to get past this limitation: Group several items into a larger whole.
Make good use of the power of music
We forget names and numbers so easily, except our favorite songs or nursery rhymes from childhood. Music helps us memorize things well. If you want to learn a foreign language, try training with music videos with words of this language. Generally speaking, singing can help improve our brain.
Create mnemonic pegs(助记符) to remember long lists
Even without the music background, you can use rhyme and rhythm to remember things like shopping lists or lists oral the US capitals. You can build a connection between the items and the things that rhyme. For example. l is a gun(imagine le fist tem being fired from a gun), 2 is a shoe (imagine the second item inside a shoe) and so on.
Take care of your health and learn new skills
Sadly, our memory falls as we get older. Taking care of our basic health, though, can help your brain work in a proper way. That means reducing the stress in your life, exercising and staving and keeping your brain healthy too by learning new skills.
Follow one trick that works for you and keep using it, and you can make your memory better and better!

What’s the most important thing in your life? Have you thought about this question?
I began to think about it when I was just a little girl. I had a lot of friends and I loved playing with them. So I thought friendship was the most important thing in life. If I had no friends, I would be very sad.
When I got older, I thought the most important thing was music. I was crazy about music at that time. In my opinion, if I couldn’t sing or couldn’t listen to music, my life would be meaningless.
As time went by, I changed my mind again. When I was 12, I read a book that tells a beautiful story about the love between a mother and her child. I was happy to find that love was the most important thing. I thought love made my life beautiful.
Not long ago, I got a new answer to the question from another book. The writer said, “happiness is the destination(目标,终点) for everyone.”
Soon I realized that, in fact, friendship, music, love and happiness are all very important to us. There are many important things that make our lives colourful and beautiful.
What’s the most important thing in life? I don’t have the answer yet. However, in fact, I don’t want to know. I just want to care about everything important in my life. And I believe I will be very happy if I can achieve that.
I hope everyone can find the important things in their lives, and cherish (珍爱)them!

What do you do when you come across a problem while doing your homework? Andy would take out his smart phone, open a special app and searched the problem. Answers soon appeared on the screen.
Nowadays, many students do homework with the help of the Internet like Andy. They search information online, use apps or discuss through social networks like QQ and WeChat.

However, many students think this trend (趋势) also brings up problems. Some students just copy the answers online without thinking. They become lazy.
A head teacher in Andy and John’s school said that knowing how to use the Internet is important. The key is to have good self-control.
“No matter how difficult the problem is, think about it independently (独立地) first,” the teacher said. “Be sure to understand the reasons behind the answers, or you won’t make progress. If you don’t have confidence about your self-control, ask your parents for help.”

More than one-million school children in the United States have gone through a program called Reading Recovery(阅读恢复). The program is for six-year-olds with difficulties in learning to read.
Reading Recovery came to the United States in 1984. Education expert(专家) Marie Clay of New Zealand developed the program. A number of other countries also use this method. Programs are quite different from school. The Reading Recovery Council of North America says more than 25% of the United States public schools with first grades use the program.
The Reading Recovery method requires a specially trained reading teacher to work with children one at a time. The lessons take a half hour each school day, including reading, writing and the study of the letters of the alphabet(字母表).
Reading Recovery lessons take place for twelve to twenty weeks. During the lessons, the teacher looks for ways that the child seems to learn best. Then the teacher works to help the students develop these methods to solve problems in reading. The idea is for the students to continue to use these methods each time they read.
Reading Recovery students read many short books. Some of the books are written in a way similar to spoken language. Children also read and write stories or messages in their own words. The material gets harder with time.
The lessons end when the students’ reading ability is within the average level(平均水平) of the class. The Reading Recovery Council of North America says eighty percent of the students who finish the lessons can read and write within their class average. The leader of this program says more than ninety-nine percent of the Reading Recovery students in the schools passed the state reading examination.

A study shows that one million lives might be saved each year if people wash their hands with soap(肥皂) often. It also says that hand-washing with soap could be among the best ways to reduce diseases. Doctors say many diseases can be prevented from spreading by hand-washing. These include the common cold, influenza(流行感冒), hepatitis(肝炎), infectious diarrhea(腹泻) and so on.
Doctors say the easiest way to catch a cold is to touch your nose or eyes after someone nearby has sneezed or coughed. Another way to catch a disease is to eat food prepared by someone whose hands were not clean.
They also say that hand-washing is especially important before and after preparing food, before eating and after using the toilet, after touching money and sneezing or coughing. The most helpful way is to wash them together while using soap and warm water. You do not have to use special soap. Be sure to wash all areas of the hands for about ten to fifteen seconds.
