Hurray! I’ve just met my all-time h   1   —Wong Kam-Po. I’ve seen him many t   2

  Life is like a kind of game with five balls. You name them: Work, Family, Health, Friends and Spirit. And you are keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that Work is a rubber (橡皮)ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back(反弹). But the other _________ balls ---- Family, Health, Friends and Spirit are ________ of glass. If you drop one of them, they will be broken and never be the same.

  So don’t judge your worth by comparing yourselves with others. You are different and each of us is special. Don’t set your goals by what other people feel important. Only you know what is best for you. Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don’t be afraid of risks. It is by taking chances that you learn how to be brave.

   Don’t throw love out of our life by saying it is impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give but the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too selfishly. And the best way to keep love is to give it wings to fly.

   Life is not a running race. It is a long but colourful journey that every step needs to be valued and enjoyed.

　　　 Most people may not think that there are any problems with watermelons（西瓜）, but some Japanese sellers do. There is often wasted space when they store(贮存) watermelons, because round watermelons do not sit nicely on shelves. So some clever farmers have solved the watermelon problem. They make their watermelons grow in square glass boxes so the watermelons become square. The only problem now is the price. The square watermelons cost about 80 dollars each.

　　　 Many people know the saying “Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet and so are

you”. Well, today the poem needs to change to “Roses are red, roses are blue”! Australian scientists have just recently discovered that when they put a chemical(化学品) from a blue flower into a rose, they can create a nearly 100% blue rose. Some of science’s inventions are beautiful, not just useful!

　　　 Since the mid-1990s, many Chinese farmers have had amazing rice harvests. For many years Chinese scientists have been working on developing new kinds of stronger rice and now they have produced a new kind, called super rice. Super rice not only can protect itself against insects and diseases, but it also produces more than any other kind of rice. Today farmers can grow almost one and a half times more rice than they could grow in the past.

　　　 Doctors might be able to use vegetables to fight cancer now. US scientists have discovered a way to put a chemical into tomato plants while they are growing. When cancer patients eat the tomatoes, the tomatoes will fight the cancer in their bodies. These cancer-fighting vegetables are not yet for sale, because scientists have not finished testing them. If study finds no problems with the tomatoes, then patients can begin to use this easy and delicious new treatment.

Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15,1452 in Italy.

He is best known as an artist today. One of his famous paintings

is called Mona Lisa. However, Leonardo had many other natural

abilities. He was also a great inventor. Many of his inventions

have become important in modern day life.

Although Leonardo hated war, he invented many different machines used for war. His most special invention was the machine gun, which was produced and used in war many years later.

By watching the way birds fly, Leonardo tried to find out the secret of flying. Among his sketched(素描)we can see several objects. We consider them as modern flying machines.

Leonardo spent many hours thinking about how to make good use of time. He developed ideas for labor-saving machines like cutting machines.

Leonardo was a strange man. He didn't eat any meat, which was unusual in those times. He never published(发表) his ideas and scientific discoveries. He usually used mirror writing, which looks like writing in a mirror, starting from the right side of the page and moving to the left.

We have very little of his work today. Leonardo finished only a few of his paintings. He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect. No one in his life time knew how great Leonardo was. We now believe, however, that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known.
