Build for yourself a strong box.Build each part with care；
When it strong as your hand can make it，
Put all your troubles there.
Hide there all thought of your failures.And each pain that you take；
Lock all your heartaches in it，
Then sit on the lid（盖子）and laugh
Tell no one else what's inside，Never share its secrets；
When you've dropped in your care and worry，
Keep them for ever there.Hide them from sight（视野）so completely；
That the world will never dream half；Cover the strong box safely，
Then sit on the lid and laugh.

Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldn’t talk with anyone about my problems.
Then one day, when my classmates were talking happily with their friends, I was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didn’t know who he was. He passed by me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile.
Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
