5．I love picking up a camera and taking photos，but today I want to share with youmy favorite 15 photos，and I didn't take any of them． In fact，most of them were takenby other tourists．
    My story begins when we were in New York City，and my wife took this pictureof me holding my daughter on her first birthday． We're on the corner of 57th and 5th． We happened to be back in New York exactly a year later，so we decided totake the same picture． Before my daughter's third birthday，my wife said，"Hey，why don't you take Sabina back to New York and make it a father?daughter trip，and takethe same picture again？"This is when we started asking passing tourists to take thepicture．
    This one was taken just weeks after 9/11，2001，and I found myself trying to explain what had happened that day in ways a five?year?old kid could understand．
    Back then，we had no idea how much this trip would change our lives．
    Recently，on our trip in New York，my daughter pointed to a doll store and described to me how excited she was as a five?year?old when she first saw it eleven years earlier． And now what she's looking at in New York are colleges，because she's decided to study here．
    So these photos are far more than single moments，or specific trips． They're alsoways for us to freeze（ 凝固） time and to see how we change from year to year，and not just appearance，but in every way．
So I want to share the idea of creating memories actively． It's a pity that I'm notin any of the family photos except these 15photos，I'm always the one who takes thepicture． So I want to encourage everyone today to get in the photo，and don't be shy to go up to someone and ask，"Will you take our picture？"
That's all．Thank you．

    When I was about 12，I had an"enemy"，a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings （缺点）．Sometimes she said I was thin．Sometimes she said I was lazy．Sometimes she said I wasn't a good student．Sometimes she said I talked too much，and so on．I tried to put up with （忍受） her as long as I could．At last，I became very angry．I ran to my father with tears in my eyes．
     He listened to me quietly，and then he asked，"Are the things she said true or not？Mary，didn't you ever wonder what you're really like？Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true．Pay no attention to the other things she said．"
     I did as he told me and to my surprise，I discovered that about half the things were true．
     I brought the list back to my dad．He refused to take it．"That's just for you，"he said．"You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself．When something said about you is true，you'll find it will be helpful to you．Don't shut your ears．Listen to them all，but hear the truth and do what you think is right．"
     Many years have passed．The situation often appears in my mind．In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice．For some advice you will treasure （珍惜） all your life!

    Mr．Ma，a famous mental（心理的）doctor from beijing once said at an important meeting，"Now many young students can have problems with their minds．Some students become worried because they have to study very hard．Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and friends．Parents and teachers should care more about this problem．"

problems．They often feel worried and very unhappy．Unluckily many of them won't go and ask for help．

18．Andy rode slowly on his way to school，day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him．He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he paid no attention to everything else around him．
He rode along until a strange sound stopped him..He looked up to the sky．What he saw frightened him．A huge group of bees filled the sky like dark cloud and seemed to be flying angrily towards him．
