In our daily life,most of us always come to the question "What is the real beauty?"Different people have different ideas.Last night,I read a true story from the newspaper.It's about a poor,ordinary looking(相貌平凡的)old woman.She lived alone,making a living by picking things from rubbish.However,she took in more than ten homeless children and tried to bring then up.Every day she worked from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. In order to make as much money as possible to raise the children and to keep them in school,she even went to a local hospital to sell her blood once a month.She got so weak because of the loss of blood that she sometimes felt sick on her way home.When asked why she choose to take care of so many children,she smiled and answered,"Oh,l love children and I like to live together with them because they always bring me great happiness.
Though the old woman was poor,she was full of love and rich in spirit.The local government and people all respected(尊敬) her and remembered her.
Maybe you can't help thinking,"What makes that poor woman so different?"It is nothing else but her inner(内在的) beauty,her true devotion of love without any thought of money.So the real beauty is the beauty in one's heart,that is,the inner beauty!

Work is helpful to health.Scientists find that the hard﹣working people live longer than those who have no jobs.Studies show that the jobless are in poorer health than job﹣holders.Career( 职业的) women are healthier than housewives.
Why is work good for health?It is because work keeps people busy,away from loneliness.Researches show that people feel unhappy,worried and lonely when they have nothing to do.Instead,Instead,the happiest people are those who are busy.Many high achievers who love their careens feel they happiest when they are working hard.They work as a bridge between dream and reality,so they have energy every day.By work,people get to know each other.By taking part in all kinds of activities,they find friendship and warmth.This is helpful to health.The loss(丧失)of work means the loss of everything.It affects man's spirit and it will cause more illnesses.
Besides,work gives one a sense of hope and a sense of achievement.Work makes one feel his
value and status(形象) in society.When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow,they are happy beyond( 超越) words.
