Once President Roosevelt’s house was broken into and lots of things were stolen. Hearing this, one of Roosevelt’s friends wrote to him and advised him not to take it to his 　21 so much. President Roosevelt wrote back immediately, saying,” Dear friend, thank you for your letter to 　22 me. I’m all right now. I think I should thank God. This is because of the following three reasons: firstly, the thief only stole things from me but did not 　23 me at all; secondly, the thief has stolen some of my things 　24 all my things; thirdly, most luckily for me, it was the man 　25 me who became a thief…”

It was quite unlucky for anyone to be stolen from…. However, President Roosevelt had such three reasons to be so 　26 . This story tells us how we can learn to be grateful in our life.

Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom…. It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time 　 27 he lives in the world. We should learn how to face failure or misfortune bravely and 　 28 and to try to deal with it. If so, should we complain about our life and become 　 29 and disappointed ever since then or should we be grateful for our life, 　30 again ourselves after a fall? William Thackeray, a famous British writer, said, “Life is a mirror. When you smile in front of it, it will also smile and 　31 will it when you cry to it.” If you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining sunlight. If you always complain about everything, you may own 32 in the end. When we are successful, we can 　33 have many reasons for being grateful, but we have only one excuse to show ungratefulness if we fail.

I think we should even be grateful to life 　34 we are unsuccessful or unlucky. Only by doing this can we find our weakness and shortcomings when we fail. We can also get 　35 and warmth when we are unlucky. This can help us find our courage to overcome the difficulties we may face, and receive great impetus (动力) to 　36 . We should treat our frustration and misfortune in our life　　　 37 just as President Roosevelt did. We should be grateful all the time and keep having a healthy　 38 to our life forever, keep having perfect characters and enterprising spirit. Being grateful is not only a kind of comfort, not 　39 from life and nor thinking of winning in spirit like Ah Q. Being grateful is a way to sing for our life which comes just from our love and 40 .

The ups and downs of life may seem unpredictable. But scientists know there are clear 1 that almost all people share. Even if you’ve passed your “best”, you still have other 2 years to come. Certain important high-points come later in life.

　 When are you 3 ? From 18 to 25, according to I.Q. scores; but you’re wiser and more 4 with increasing age. At around 30, metal abilities begin to decline, 5 your ability to do maths.

　 When are you happiest? You have the best 9 sense of yourself from 15 to 24, when you feel energetic all the time. The best professional sense is from 40 to 49.

If we maintain our health, achieve professional and emotional goals, then 12 , we feel, will follow.

　 When are you most creative? Generally between 30 and 39, but it 13 with different professions.

It’s not all kangaroos down there

　　People just naturally associate kangaroo, koala and fine beaches with Australia．Yes, you can find many fine sand beaches, white or brown, to enjoy the sunshine and seaside breeze．However, in Queensland, the eastern state of Australia, a night beach tour at this time of year may bring you a more exciting sight of the miracle of life：You can watch hatching baby turtles making their first steps in a natural environment．

　　On Mon Repos beach, about 14 kilometres east of the city of Bundaberg in Queensland, Australia, lies Mon Repos Conservation Park．

　　By day, Mon Repos beach is a sweeping bay of brown sand, a quiet spot for people to sunbathe, surf and fish．

　　By night, it’s home to the largest concentration of endangered marine turtles on the eastern Australian mainland．And the miracle of egglaying and hatching occurs from around mid October to the end of April every year．

　　In order not to disturb the turtles, tourists have to follow the instruction of the guides．

　　But this may make the tour more like an adventure：Tourist are usually told to huddle close together, hold hands and walk close to the shoreline in the dark．

　　At the start of the season(October and November), tourists can view turtles laying their eggs．Nature turtles first use all four flippers to dig a body pit in the sand and then lay eggs in it．It’s not uncommon for a turtle to lay more than 100 eggs at a time．And her mission isn’t done until she uses her flippers to flick sand and cover the nest．

　　If you go there at the end of the season(March to April), you can see groups of hatchlings walk down to the water．It is an astonishing sight as the small creatures, barely two minutes old, race instinctively to the sea．

　　If they survive, the same hatchings will return in 50 years' time to lay eggs on the very beach where they first emerged(出现)．
