A few years after I left my secondary school in Manchester, I was invited to help out with the school’s
Christmas Fair. I volunteered to act as Father Christmas. C1., I attracted lots of customers.
My main job was to send gifts to the children. They were so excited about g 2..I bring a sense
of m3. to them and I was also enjoying myself. But I was puzzled(迷惑)by a young boy who paid for a
second v4., and then surprisingly f or a third. The gifts were really very small. There were only some
candies, stickers and cards. He answered s5.,“I just love talking to you.”
It was then that I r6. that many parents do not encourage their children to talk. Everyone wants to
know they’ve been heard and understanding.
So it is important to listen to children and give them the full a7. . It is also a way to show children
the p8. way of listening, to be polite and to gain a better understanding.
So, at home, at work, socially, always e9. family, friends, colleagues to talk about themselves and
their feelings and r10. listen.

I learned about life from an ant farm. When I was seven years old, my family created one. First, we put
clean sand in a thin glass box, and then we waited for the live ants to arrive. Shortly after the chilly ants were dropped into the glass structure, they got to work making tunnels. I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to
do. After hours of staring, I realized that the ants had assigned jobs.
With my mom ' s help, I kept a diary of what happened each day and named the ants. One day an incident struck
the ant farm. The pages of the diary, still wrinkled(皱巴巴) where tear drops fell, indicate the great loss.
'I had put my face so close to the structure that I accidentally knocked it over and all the tunnels caved in.
Although the ants survived(幸存) their earthquake, one by one they began to die.
I was terrified as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a comer of the farm.
My mother reported that the ants were dying of "frustration." They simply could not stand the reality that their
tunnels had been destroyed.
Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the
natural world, but it taught me much more. Over the years, I came to realize the ants were a study in the benefits
of teamwork. Working together, they were able to create an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that
they should be admired for their hard work. Day in and day out, each labored at their task.
The ant farm showed that teamwork and perseverance are indeed two key ingredients to success. But there
was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, humans cannot give up when they face disappointment. Unlike the ants, we have to
realize that if a tunnel caves in, we just have to build another. Giving up, I say, is not a choice.
