Do you know what school life is like in Singapore? In Singapore, a class only lasts half an hour, but there are no rests between classes. The students only have a 30-minute tea break after 3 or 4 classes.

They do not do eye exercises. Yao Suyu, a Singaporean student said our eye exercise were new to her. “I’d like to introduce them to our school,” she said. “They’re very useful.”

In Singapore school ends at 1:30p.m. But students join other clubs after school, such as dancing clubs and singing clubs. Yao said she joined the dancing club twice a week and it lasted from 1: 50 to 5:30 p.m.

Its population includes Chinese, Indians, Malays and Westerners. But there is no school for any one of the groups. The students in Yao’s school are Chinese, Indians and Malays. “The Indian students take Indian language classes when we study Chinese,” said Yao, “but if an Indian student is interested in Chinese, he ore she can study it, too.”

In Singaporean schools, teachers teach in English. It’s the official（官方的）language in Singapore. Singaporean students have to take different courses after school. Like most Singaporean students, Yao takes other courses in Chinese，such as math and English.

What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.

If you arrange（排列） the 26 English letters in order and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…26 for z, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark. Knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money? It can’t, either.

Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.

Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude towards failure, you’ll find it’s also rewarding（有益的）though it has caused you losses（损失）.
