  One day the employees of a large company in St Louis, Missouri returned from their lunch break and were greeted with a sign on the front door.The sign said:“Yesterday the person who has been hindering(阻碍)your growth in this company passed away.We invite you to join the funeral(葬礼)in the room that has been prepared in the gym.”

  At first everyone was sad to hear that one of their colleagues had died, but after a while they started getting curious about who this person might be.

  The excitement grew as the employees arrived at the gym to pay their last respects.Everyone wondered:“Who is this person that was hindering my progress? Well, at least he’s no longer here.”

  One by one the employees got closer to the coffin(棺材)and when they looked inside it they became speechless.They stood over the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul.

  There was a mirror inside the coffin:Everyone who looked inside it could see himself.There was also a sign next to the mirror that said.“There is only one person who can set limits to your growth:it is YOU.”

  You are the only person who can revolutionize(彻底改变)your life.You are the only person who can influence your happiness, your realization and your success.You are the only person who can help yourself.

  Your life does not change when your family changes, when your friends change, when your boss changes, and when your company changes.

  Your life changes when YOU change, when you go beyond your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.

Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born in Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775, and died on July 18,1817. She began writing early in life, although the prejudices(偏见)of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously.(匿名).
  But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath’s many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Addey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping its streets and public buildings the well—ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen’s Bath can be enhanced (增强)by visiting the Jane Austen Center in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen’s time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.
  The Center has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Center, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.
  You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen’s Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.

  Probably you have seen photographs of the Grand Canyon(峡谷),the great valley in the desert country of Arizona.But you must go there yourself to feel its true size and beauty.The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.

  The Colorado River formed the Grand Canyon over millions of years.Slowly, the river cut down through hard rock.At the same time, the land was rising.Today, the canyon is one and a half kilometres deep and 445 kilometres long.The oldest rocks at the bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old.The width varies from about 200 metres to 29 kilometres across.The rim(边缘)or top of the canyon is about 2,300 metres above sea level on the South Rim, and about 3,000 metres on the other side, the North Rim.As a result, there are different kinds of plants and animals on opposite sides of the canyon.The South Rim is dry desert country.The North Rim has tall forests.

  The canyon looks different at different times of day, and in different seasons and weather.At sunrise and sunset the red, gold, brown, and orange colours of the rocks are especially clear and bright.In winter, the canyon is partly covered with snow.

  The view from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is the best, Most visitors come to the South Rim and stay in campgrounds or hotels.Every point along the canyon's edge offers a different view.

  The North Rim of the Canyon is quieter.It takes all day to drive there from the South Rim because there is only one bridge across the Colorado River.On the way, you go through Navado Indian lands, and a colourful pink desert called“The Painted Desert”.

  You can walk down into the Grand Canyon, or you can go down on the back of a mule(小型电动机车).You can also take a boat trip down the Colorado River, and camp on the beaches at night.But whether you see the Grand Canyon from the top or the bottom, it will be an experience that you will never forget.
