Recently, I felt like I reached a very low point in life. My relationships weren't good, I wasn't enjoying my classes, and I felt like I had nothing to .My life seemed to be full of endless homework, tests and loneliness. Nothing anyone said seemed to me. I wasn't sure what to do about myself. All I wanted was to be happy again, but I didn't know who or what would that.
During these days, I had trouble sleeping. I had to take sleeping pills but still woke up in the midnight. I had no but to tell my dad. He the book The Secret. I immediately bought the e-book online and read the whole thing that night. I'm quite a stubborn person, but the effect on my mood after finishing the book was . Suddenly, I felt like life was beautiful again. I had never felt such a deep and quick in my life before.
In fact, the book's message was very simple—think positively(积极地).The book had many success stories about how people were able to money, soul mates(心灵伙伴)and old friends back into their lives. I started learning to thank everything in my life like them. Little by little, I realized that The Secret could only work I believed these people's success stories.
Now I'm sure I can bring myself happiness.

In the Lukou airport in Nanjing, more than 60 flights were canceled(取消) on Saturday the haze, which also made primary and middle schools and kindergartens stop on Thursday and Friday in Nanjing.
The office worker of Environmental Protection said earlier this week that there were several reasons behind the widespread haze: unpleasant weather conditions making difficult for smog to disappear, automobile exhaust（尾气）, and coal use for winter heating.
To fight pollution, the Chinese government now plans to clean up the air by cutting coal use, some factories, and removing 6 million old cars from the roads.
“We must face up to the facts,” said Yan Naiqiang, a professor of environmental science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. “The treatment of smog will be a long fight. From now on, if we use buses or cars less and do more riding, we believe a clear sky is not a faraway dream.”
