The American book Who Moved My Cheese has been a best seller all over the world. It teaches people how to face changes in their lives. It is just for teens. The book tells us that when facing change in our life, like a new school or new friends, don’t be afraid. Use this change to make a better life.

The book gives an example of a change at school. A school is changing from having two terms to three terms because there are too many students. Several teens are talking about this.

The four are in a maze(迷宫)looking for  The cheese. Here, cheese means some thing important in life. But they find the cheese is gone. The mice realize that they can’t change what has happened and have to find more cheese. This means finding different dreams. The little people can’t do this. They are afraid of change so they find no cheese.

How Time Changes around the World?
  Strange things happen to time when you travel because the earth is divided
into twenty-four zones(时区),one hour apart(一个时区相差一个小时). You can
have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or
fewer than seven days. 
  If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋), your ship
enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes
one hour. Travelling west, you set your clock back, travelling east, you set it
ahead (向前). Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours. 
  If you travel by ship across the Pacific. You cross the international date line
(国际日期变更线). By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins.
When you cross the line, you change your calender one full day, backward or

A man bought a donkey at the market one day and took him home. Now the man owned several donkeys already and he knew each one’s character very well. One of the donkeys was very strong and brave. Another always wanted to make people happy by working quickly but soon got tired. One donkey was very lazy. He hated going to work in the morning and he did as little as he       possibly could all day long. When the other animals were being loaded up(装载), he always tried to be the last so that he would get the lightest load.

       “You can’t have given him a fair trial yet,” said the seller, “It is only ten minutes since you bought him.”
