Candy，Please read the story first and chick on the link at the bottom and enjoy!

The lady in her 30s was a dancer and was trained since she was a little girl. Later she got into some kind of audient and lost her entire left arm. She was depressed for a few years．Then someone asked her to coach a children’s dancing group. From that point on, she realized she could not forget dancing.

She still loved to dance．She wanted to dance again．So she started to do some of her old routines. But by her losing an arm，She also lost her balance.

It took a while before she could even make simple turns without falling.

Eventually she got it.

Then she heard some guy in his 20s had lost a 1eg in an accident．This guy also fell into depression and anger. She looked him up and persuaded him to dance with her. He had never danced! “And to dance with one leg ? Are you joking with me?

"No way，" he replied．

But she didn’t give up. He reluctantly agreed, “I have nothing else to do anyway．”She started to teach him dancing．The two fell down a few times because the guy had no concept of using muscle, controlling his body，and a few other basic things about dancing．When she became frustrated and lost patience with him，he would walk out．

Later they got back together again and started training. They hired a choreographer to design routines for them．She would fly high，held by him with both arms， flying in the air. He could bend，supported by one leg and she was leaning on him，etc．They danced beautifully and they beat other students in the competition.

I would like to share with you the most magnificent an touching performance I have ever seen! It is a living proof that strong spirit can conquer physical limitations!

The ecosystem is 1ike a chain．If any of the links are broken，the whole system is in danger．This  is  why  wetland  protection  has  been  put high on the agenda in recent  years．Zhao，vice―director of the State Forestry Administration，says nearly 60 percent of the country’s natural wetlands are still not  under  effective protection．Most  Chinese  people  are ignorant  about  the importance of protecting the wetlands．

Ocean，forestry and wetlands are the three global ecological systems．Wetlands can conserve and purify water resources, prevent flooding and help protect the ecosystem. As well as ecological values， they can also offer economical  returns．

In recent years，many wetlands have become farmland．Drawing too much underground water，hunting and fishing also ruin their ecological system．

Every year，the wetlands in the Sanjiang Plain of  Northeast China provide habitat for birds．Local residents search the area for the birds’ eggs. They consider the eggs to be a natural gift. rather than wildlife that should be protected． If they were educated，perhaps this is one activity that could be brought to an end.

China is now ready to make a plan to save some of these areas．Some have been restored to raise awareness among the public．But these moves are not enough．There should be laws in place to provide legal support to the fight. Environment protection is a campaign which needs support from everyone in society．Education may be the first step.

If your child does well on a test，of course，you’re going to praise or her-but if you focus too often on achievements， children may not get the right message．Why?

An experiment by psychologist Carol Dweck at Columbia University in New York shows what happens when kids are praised for their efforts，and what happens when they’re praised for their intelligence．

Dweck got a group of ten―year一olds to do a series of puzzles easy enough so that all could do them well．Then they were told either，“You must be smart at this，”or，“You must have worked really hard．”

In the following tests，the kids praised for their efforts chose to do a harder set of puzzles．when give a task two years beyond their grade levels ,they worked hard and enjoyed the challenge , even when they didn't succeed. And in a final test at the same level as the first ,their scores improved by 25 percent. And the “smart” kids? They refused to try the harder puzzles, choosing the one that guaranteed them good scores. When they did work in the “too hard” tests , they became discouraged and upset. And when retested with the original puzzles, their scores declined by 20 percent.

Dweck’s conclusion：“When we praise kids for their intelligence，we tell them：  ‘Look smart，don’t risk making mistakes．’“By contrast，“emphasizing effort gives children an inspiring factor that they can control．”
