Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.The passage tells us not to _________ because everyone is special.

Last week，Chicago became the first city in the US to join the "Lights Out Plan"．People turned off the lights in the city's tallest buildings，so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes．Every year in autumn，some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south，and come back the next spring．
Lights mean danger to birds．Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky．Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars．This means they can not find the right way to go home．
This month，about 300types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter．Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons．Many birds cannot live in the cold，so they fly to warmer places．But there are other reasons，too．Birds need to look for food in the south．Another reason is that they want to have baby birds．Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same "house" they lived in last year，so they fly back there．
There are about 9，000kinds of birds in the world，and about 600kinds of birds migrate（迁徙）．Some birds can fly a very long way．Sometimes they fly to other countries．We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds．
64．Why did people in Chicago turn off their last week？

B．Because people liked the dark night．
C．Because people were a afraid that birds would make much noise．

Five years ago，my mother gave birth to a brother for me when I was 8．I have learned a lot from getting along with him．
After he was born，I almost became a babysitter．I had to amuse him after school．I would make faces and sing to him when he was crying．Sometimes I even carried him everywhere in our yard to refresh him while my parents were busy．What I liked to do best was to feed him when looking after him．How cute he was as he tasted his favorite food! My parents often praised me happily．As an elder brother，you've made contributions to looking after your younger brother．"
