We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others.
Photographers use cameras, artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.
Spencer Johnson’s story Who Moved My Cheese? Shows changes exist in (存在于) our life. Life changes and so we do. We must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.
Just look at the cycle (循环) of the seasons. Trees bud (发芽) in spring and in summer their leaves turn green. In autumn, their leaves start to fall onto the ground. When winter arrives, there are no leaves on trees. Next spring the cycle begins again. Since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare for them. We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.
Since we accept the cycles of nature, we should also accept the changes in our life.
We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible(灵活的). We can regard the changes in our life as chances. As we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our life.What do writers use to share their life experiences?

Today more and more people are using refrigerators. Some are big, others are small. Big ones have two or three doors. Such refrigerators can not only keep the food cold and fresh, but also make ice and freeze the food. However, small ones usually have one door and can only keep things cold and fresh.
There are also refrigerators that are friendly to the environment. In the 1970s, the world was in energy crisis(危机). Refrigerators use too much energy. So people began to think of ways to improve it . At last a kind of new refrigerator was made. They use very little energy, but they’re too expensive. They cost twice or three times more than the ones that we use at home. However, people believe they will be cheaper and cheaper. As a result, they will be more and more popular.
In the future, there will be refrigerators that can do more than we can imagine. They are called smart refrigerators(智能冰箱) . They have tiny computers inside, with their screens on the door. They can show us what food is inside. They can also tell us what food to buy.They can even let us know what food to eat when we input the necessary health information. The more surprising thing is that they can do shopping for us when they are connected(连接) to the supermarket.Small refrigerators can not only keep the food cold but also freeze the food.
Refrigerators that use very little energy are more expensive.
Friendly refrigerators will be popular some day.
Refrigerators that keep the food fresh are smart refrigerators.
We can have a “talk ” with smart refrigerators.

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big, and they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap(捕蝇草).
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly(苍蝇) touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea!
