No doubt there are ups and downs in life. Whatever the situation is, you shouldn’t lose your joy of life. Life is for a limited period only and no one knows how long he/she will live, so why do you waste your precious time in worrying about the things that are beyond your control? Be happy, and enjoy your life unconditionally (无条件地).

You enjoy good days but you also need to learn how to enjoy bad days, even enjoy your pain. In 2016 when I was in Geneva, Switzerland, I suffered a sudden heart attack. My colleagues called an ambulance and I was taken to hospital with much pain in my chest. Before reaching hospital, I was totally exhausted with pain and was going to lose control of my emotions. Then the doctor in the ambulance said, “Don’t worry; you are in safe hands.” His words took away all my pain because I started realizing that it was no time to worry about pain and it’s time to be happy that my life was safe. At that time, I learnt an important lesson that in pain there is a hidden joy and whoever sees the bright side can enjoy pain. My pain turned into a joy which greatly helped me recover more quickly than expected.

You not only enjoy success but you also need to learn to enjoy failure. Failure provides you with an opportunity to benefit from so many choices you’ve made. Celebrating failure will raise your morale and make you more powerful and determined to achieve success. We all make mistakes in life but only the courageous (勇敢的) people not only laugh at their own mistakes but also let other people laugh at them and then they reach success without any spiritual burden (负担). A person who learns from mistakes and knows how to turn the bad situation into his/her favor is the most intelligent person and really enjoys his/her life.

1.What does the author mainly tell us in the first paragraph?

A.Life is full of ups and downs. B.People’s lives only last a limited period.

C.We should enjoy our life unconditionally. D.Bad situations can be changed into good ones.

2.Why did the author still feel happy when experiencing much pain?

A.His colleagues were always with him.

B.He could be looked after by his parents.

C.He planned to enjoy the last days in life.

D.His doctor made him realize the value of being alive.

3.The underlined word “morale” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “________”.

A.talent B.confidence

C.pleasure D.inspiration

4.The author thinks that the wisest person________.

A.never laughs at others B.has strong determination

C.is ready to do others a favor D.is good at learning from mistakes

Several weeks ago, kidsPost did a story on “The Art of Video Games” at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. The exhibition has created debate with some people saying that as fun as video games are ,they are not works of art. Other people say that videos games may be a new form of art and that they belong to in museums. We asked readers for their opinions on the topic. Here are a few of the letters we received.

A video game is like a painting on a screen. In order to make a video game, you have to think of something original(新颖的)to reach the players. This is the point of Art.

---Mary Pottanat,13

I believe video games are not a form of art. Art should be a visual (视觉的)and creative expression of feelings. Although it is arguable that video games are visual ,they do not express feelings in any way.

---Prannab Kirshnan,12

However exciting video games are, they are not art. Painting is art, but not video games. Art has beauty and culture that no technology could ever compare to. Even though you can create art in some video games, the “ Mona Lisa” wasn’t painted with Nintendo.

---Caroline Kaplan,10

Art is a way of communicating ideas to the public in a way that is fun to them. The “public”, who in this case are kids and adults, are finding these video games from different time periods interesting. Video games would not have been art if it had not been for the kids and adults attracted by “the art of video games”.
