    According to the author, . A. there are many chances in our life B. choices are more practical than possibilities C. we must have our own ideas about our decision D. we can determine our way of life through our choice D Some people who find themselves facing a problem react by just giving up. But it is not good to escape from problems by giving up or by making excuses for failures. You may be sure that all young people go through the same difficult process that you are going through: meeting new situations, developing new skills, and testing their abilities. If you are unhappy about something, face it. Try to state the problem in a few words, so that you will know exactly what you are up against. Then see if you can “put your finger on the cause of your unhappiness. In many cases, we only “think there is no solution to a particular problem. But often we can overcome the problem and achieve the goal by making a direct attack. For example, a boy wanted to be a debater. When he tried out for the debating team as a freshman, the coach thought he was hopeless. He was shy; he had a high-pitched voice; and his posture was poor. Although he was given little hope of success, he took advantage of every opportunity to debate. He studied successful speakers and evaluated his own weaknesses and advantages. Then he spent many hours learning all the facts on the topics for debate, and worked at developing good posture and at speaking clearly. By his junior year, he made the school debating team, and in his senior year he was on the winning team in his state. He achieved his goal because he had made a direct attack upon his problem. Although direct attack is often the best way to meet problems, we have to be realistic in judging situations. Sometimes it is necessary to change either the method or the goal. A boy who wants to be a great football player may not be too strong and not quite fast enough for football. In this situation, becoming a great football player may be an unreasonable goal for him. However, he may become outstanding in tennis or golf, and satisfy his desire to take part in sports. A girl who is not good-looking may decide that she cannot win popularity with her face, and so she may try to develop an interesting personality, which eventually will get her much further. In this situation, she must change her method of achieving her goal. So, although direct attack is often the best way to handle problems, it is important to study the situation and make a wise decision about what to do. 【查看更多】

    　　It might have been a really bad stressful day, feeling trapped inside by the cold and snow which surrounded us．My husband was the first to shift his consciousness．He dressed accordingly and announced that he was going outside to build a giant snowman．

    　　At first he stood alone, piling massive amounts of snow．Soon after a neighbor joined in my husband's quest to embrace the opportunity the winter presented．Maintaining less than desirable attitudes, we reluctantly put on our snow gear(用具)and headed outside．It wasn't long before we were smiling and enjoying the abundance of snow that Mother Nature had provided．Others came to our yard one by one to give a hand in the making of our giant snowman．

    　　In the end we all stood back and marveled at what we had created．He was eleven feet high, twenty-five feet around at the base and decorated with many household items supplied by various families．There he stood, our glorious, gigantic(巨人般的)snowman．

    　　People drove by and smiled．Some even stopped to enjoy his existence．The spirit that went into creating him seemed to catch on and we all enjoyed it while the cold temperatures allowed．

    　　With the passing of time, the spring made its way back into our yard and the snowman changed form considerably．In a final effort to save what we created for just a little bit longer somebody stopped by and changed the snowman's remains to look like a rabbit．

    　　As I prepared for the start of another week, I decided to check my email before going to bed．I found a curious message that contained the subject line：enjoy the snowman．I decided to read the message even though I did not recognize who sent it．The words it contained melted my heart．

    　　The email said：…your neighbor looks on in disbelief!I am sure you people are enjoying the sounds and smells, along with sights of spring．The energy displayed in Mr．Snowman or Ms, is filled with vigor and joyous energy．You and your family keep it up, as this is what the world needs now．Love sweet love．More power to you and your loved ones, keep sharing with the world around．

    　　Perhaps it was more than snowman we built that day．I'd like to agree that it was．The message seems clear．Our circumstances will turn out to be what we make of them．The possibilities are endless and the choice is ours．
