　　As I was finishing seventh grade, my school decided to make some changes because of financial(财政)problems．The school would make the classes bigger, so there could be fewer teachers．We needed to write down the names of people we wanted to be with and didn't want to be with．I wrote down the names of all my close friends．

　　I found out that none of my close friends were in any of my new classes．Also, my new classmates were quite different from my old ones．I thought they weren't as smart as my old classmates．They also weren't in the school activities I was in．I couldn't find common interests with them．

　　As the year went on, I began to feel lonely and envy people in other groups．Why could they be with all their friends? As I found out, they didn't have many friends at first．They had made new friends in their new classes．They seemed pretty happy with their new friends．

　　I decided it was time for me to make new friends．I noticed that the people with many friends were very active．They often talked to others first, while I was too scared to talk to others and hoped other people would talk to me first．

　　Once I realized that, I found that making friends is very easy if you can accept people for who they are, respect them, and talk to them．Now I feel a lot happier because I have more friends．

　　It was so dark outside the car window that is was hard to see anything．

　　“Can I have a carrot, Mum?” Riley asked．

　　“I don't have any carrots,” her mum said．“How about an apple?”

　　“No,” said Riley．“It has to be a carrot．”

　　“Why do you want a carrot?” asked her mum．

　　“You always say carrots help your eyes,” said Riley．“If I eat one now, it might help me see in the dark．”

　　Would eating a carrot really help Riley? What is special about carrots? A clue to what makes a carrot special is its color．Carrots are orange because they store beta-carotene(胡萝卜素)．Beta-carotene is a way to talk about Vitamin A(维生素A)．Your eyes need Vitamin A．It helps them work．

　　When light hits your eye, very small parts inside turn the light into messages．The messages go to your brain(脑),and then you know what you're looking at．Your eye can only turn light into messages when it has a special chemical(化学物质)．That's where Vitamin A comes in．Your eyes use Vitamin A to make the special chemical．Every time your eye changes light to messages, a little bit of the chemical is used up．By the end of the day, you've looked at hundreds of things．That uses up a lot of the chemical．Your eyes need to make more．

　　What should you eat if you don't like carrots? Don't worry．Other fruits and vegetables have Vitamin A too．The secret is in their color．Most orange or red fruits store some beta-carotene, or Vitamin A．Sweet potatoes, red peppers, mangoes(芒果)are a few that have the same orange secret．Can you think of any more?

　　A well-known speaker started off his speech by holding up a ＄20 bill(钞票)．In the room of 200,he asked,” Who would you like this ＄20 bill?”

　　Hands started going up．He said, “I am going to give this ＄20 to one of you ,but first, let me do this．”

　　He continued to crumple(弄皱)the 20-dollar note up．He then asked, “Who still wants it?” Still the hands were on in the air．

　　“Well,” he replied, “what if I do this?,” He dropped it on the ground and started to grind(磨)it into the floor with his shoe．He picked it up, now the note was crumpled and dirty．

　　“Now, who still wants it?”

　　Still the hands went into the air．

　　“My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson．No matter what I did to the money ，you still wanted it because it did not decrease　in value(价值)．It was still worth ＄20．”

　　“Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled ,and grounded into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances(情况)that come our way．We feel as though we are worthless; but no matter what happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value．”

　　“Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased ,you are still priceless(无价的)to those who love you．The worth of our lives comes, not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE．”

　　“You are special——don't ever forget it．”
