When I was a young child, my parents often told me that a positive(积极的) heart brought man everything. I didn’t understand and wondered why has such a big influence on a person. And now, although I’m just a middle school student, I’d like to my own opinions on this saying.

Once I read a sentence— “To make this world a place to live in, rather than the whole world, you’d better change your .” It made me lost in thought. There are so many things around us that go our will. We can’t force life to follow our wishes. The earth won’t stop turning we accept it or not.

What we can do is just to make ourselves suit the world. I think we should learn to warmly welcome life gives us, the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to get from it.

I have tried to catch every pleasant thing in my life, but I can’t catch of the pleasant moments, such as being hugged by mother when in fear, being by the teacher when in trouble, being helped by a stranger when in danger. I realize that I don’t just live and that there are around me I should think of. They all pay attention to my growing up, and are proud of my achievements it is just a little progress. It is their care and love that remind me I live in a warm and happy world.

Different people may have different attitudes towards life, but there is one rule should and that is to make the world better.

When I was a soldier , my first Christmas came. I was in training in New Jersey and not sure if I could make it home for the holidays. Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have three-day passes (通行证) posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers.

It was Christmas Eve when I arrived, and a light snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beside her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights, all colors, and ornaments (装饰物) shining against the green of a pine tree.

“Where did it come from？” I asked.

“I asked the Gates boy to cut it,” my mother said. “I wouldn’t have had one just for myself, but when you called--- oh, such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon…”

The pine was so high, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Krystal Star was in its place. A few green branches reached out a little ugly at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with pleasant smell of Christmas.

“It’s not like the ones you used to find,” my mother went on. “Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didn’t know where to look for them. But I couldn’t be picky.”

“Don’t worry, ” I told her. “It’s perfect.”

It wasn’t, of course, but at the moment I realized something for the first time: all Christmas trees are perfect.

Mary David knew she wanted to be a movie star when she was very young. She was not sure what gave her the idea, but she wanted to look like a movie star. “I have a lot of pictures from my childhood of me wearing sunglasses,” she says. “I used to wear them to watch TV.”

Early movie actors started wearing sunglasses, not because they looked good, but because their eyes hurt. The lights used on movie sets were really bright and could cause a painful problem known as “Klieg eyes”. It was named after the Klieg brothers who invented the lights. Actors wore sunglasses to give their eyes a rest. But when movie stars began wearing their sunglasses in public, they quickly became a must.

From then on, actors started wearing sunglasses in their movies as well as on the street. Audrey Hepburn wore ultra-cool Ray-Ban sunglasses in the 1961 movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s. As a result, Ray-Ban sunglasses started to appear more and more in the movies. In 1979, Ray-Ban “Wayfarers” were worn by Jake and Elwood in The Blue Brothers. Tom Cruise wore Ray-Ban “Aviator” sunglasses in the 1986 hit, Top Gun. Then in 1997, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones made Ray-Ban “Predator” sunglasses famous in Men in Black.

Do you like games? Do you like playing games with children? Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee(裁判) and hardly trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities can’t be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the decision of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.

Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is afraid in life. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in some game, where it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.
