Dear World,

   My son starts school today. It’s going to be strange and new to him for some time. And I wish you would treat him gently.

   You see, up to now, he has been king of his own room. He has been boss of the backyard. I have always been around to treat his wounds (伤), and to comfort his feelings.

   But now things are going to be different. This morning, he’s going to walk down the front steps, wave his hand and start on his great adventure (探险).

   So, World, I wish you would take him by the little hand and teach him the things he will have to know. Teach him there are heroes, leaders and friends in this world. Give him quiet time to think over the mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and flowers on the green hill.

   Teach him to believe in his own ideas, even if everyone else tells him they are wrong.

   Teach him to stand and fight if he thinks he is right.

   Teach him never to put a price on his heart and soul.

   Teach him gently, World, but don’t coddle (溺爱) him, because only the test of fire makes fine steel (钢). This is a big order, World, and see what you can do. He’s such a little fellow.

The most positive(乐观的) person I have ever seen is may dad! He is so positive that I do not  46  hearing a single word from him which is related(相关的) to hopelessness!

Unlike most mums and dads, my dad never says things that make me feel   47 . He is always there to give me encouragement and help.   48  I do wrong things, he always tells me what’s right in a positive way. For example, if I am in   49  , he often tells me to open the books he bought me. Then he asks me to read the   50  that can help me with the problems I’m facing. After that, we have a    51  together.

Even though I’m not always a good kid, my dad   52  shouts or gets angry with me. I know that he’s   53  a day—a day when I grow up and understand things in my life.

I can see the reason that he is so positive is because he believes in 54 . And he believes that whatever  55 , it is under control. So we have nothing to worry about. Be positive!
