One day I took a taxi and we set off for the airport. The driver was driving on his driveway when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.

My taxi driver stopped his car, and missed that car by just inches! The driver of that car pointed at us with his finger and started shouting at us! But my taxi driver just smiled at him. So I asked, "Why did you just do that? This man almost broke your car!"

My taxi driver taught me what I now call "The Law of the Rubbish Truck". He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish. As their rubbish piles up, they need a place to put it down. So they may get angry, upset, or even shout at you.

Just smile, wish them well and move on. Don't take their rubbish and throw it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.

Successful people do not let rubbish trucks take over their day. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets (遗憾), so love the people who treat you right and give your wishes to the ones who don't. Life is 10% what you make it and 90% how you take it!

In your school, are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn? Of course, the answer is "No" here in China.

In America there is a school something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college, others will not. At this school students are able to find subjects they are in, and possibly even find the field(领域) they would like into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject: biology, math, a foreign language, or study skills like computer or car repair.

Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps. students about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills needed to get there.
