热爱生活
不论你的生活如何卑微，你要面对它生活，不要躲避它，更别用恶言咒骂它。它不像你想的那样坏。你最富有的时候，倒是看似最穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺点。你要爱你的生活，尽管它贫穷。甚至在一个济贫院里，你也还有愉快、高兴、光荣的时候。夕阳反射在济贫院的窗上，像身在富户人家窗上一样光亮；在那门前，积雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一个从容的人，在哪里也像在皇宫中一样，生活得心满意足而富有愉快的思想。城镇中的穷人，我看，倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。也许因为他们很伟大，所以受之无愧。大多数人以为他们是超然的，不靠城镇来支援他们；可是事实上他们是往往利用了不正当的手段来对付生活，他们是毫不超脱的，毋宁是不体面的。视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧！不要找新的花样，无论是新的朋友或新的衣服，来麻烦你自己。找旧的，回到那里去。万物不变，是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉，但要保留你的思想。
“Packaging”a Person
A person，like a commoditycommodity n.日用品，needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration，however，does no harm when it shows the persons unique qualities to their advantage. To display personal charm in a casual and natural way，it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A master packager knows how to integrateintegrate vt.使成整体，使一体化，求……的积分 v.结合 art and nature without any traces of embellishment，so that the person so packaged is no commodity but a human being，lively and lovely.
A young person，especially a female，radiant with beauty and full of life，has all the favor grantedgrant vt.同意，准予，承认(某事为真)～ by God. Any attempt to make up would be selfdefeating. Youth，however，comes and goes in a moment of doze. Packaging for the middleaged is primarily to conceal the furrows ploughed by time. If you still enjoy lifes exuberance enough to retain selfconfidence and pursue pioneering work，you are unique in your natural qualities，and your charm and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been，through plains，mountains and junglesjungle n.丛林，生死关头，running its course as it should. You have really lived your life which now arrives at a complacentcomplacent adj.自满的，得意的 stage of serenity indifferent to fame or wealth. There is no need to resort to hairdyeing-the snowcapped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old synchronizing with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmonyharmony n.协调，融洽 with nature，for harmony itself is beauty，while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. To be in the elders company is like reading a thick book of deluxe edition that fascinates one so much as to be reluctantreluctant adj.不顾的，勉强的，难得到的，难处理的 to part with.
As long as one finds where one stands，one knows how to package oneself，just as a commodity establishes its brand by the right packaging.
人的包装
人如商品要包装，但切忌过分包装。夸张包装，要善于展示个性的独特品质。在随意与自然中表现人的个性美，重要的是认识自己，包装的高手在于不留痕迹，外在的一切应与自身浑然一体，这时你不再是商品，而是活生生的人。
青年有着充盈的生命的底气，她亮丽诱人，这是上帝赐予的神采，任何涂抹都是多余的败笔，青春是个打个盹就过去的东西。中年的包装主要是修复岁月的磨损，如果中年的生命依然有开拓丰满与自信，便是真正的成年人，如果你生命的河流正常地流过，流过了平原高山和丛林，那么你是美的。你的美充满了安详与淡泊，因为你真正地生活过。老年人不要去染白发，老人的白发像高山的积雪，有种仙境之美。人该年轻时就年轻，该年老时就年老，这是与自然同步，这就是和谐。和谐就是美，反之就是丑。和老年人在一起就像读一本厚厚的精装书，魅力无穷，令人爱不释手。
人只要真正找到了自己，就找到了品牌，就找到了恰当的包装。

Your boss has a bigger vocabulary than you have.
Thats one good reason why hes your boss.
This discovery has been made in the word laboratories of the world. Not by theoreticaltheoretical 理论的 English professors，but by practical，hardheaded scholars who have been searching for the secrets of success.
After a host of experiments and years of testing they have found out：
That if your vocabulary is limited your chances of success are limited.
That one of the easiest and quickest ways to get ahead is by consciouslyconsciously adv.有意识地，自觉地 building up your knowledge of words.
That the vocabulary of the average person almost stops growing by the middle twenties.
And that from then on it is necessary to have an intelligent plan if progress is to be made. No haphazardhaphazard n.偶然，偶然事件 adj.偶然的，随便的 adv.偶然地 hitormiss methods will do.
It has long since been satisfactorily established that a high executive does not have a large vocabulary merely because of the opportunities of his position. That would be putting the cart before the horse. Quite the reversereverse n.相反，背面，反面，倒退 adj.相反的，倒转的，颠倒的 vt.颠倒，倒转 is true. His skill in words was a tremendous help in getting him his job.
Dr. Johnson O Connor of thee Human Engineering Laboratory of Boston and of the Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken，New Jersey，gave a vocabulary test to 100 young men who were studying to be industrial executivesexecutive adj.实行的，执行的，行政的 n.执行者，经理主管人员.
Five years later those who had passed in the upper ten percent of all，without exception，had executive positions，while not a single young man of the lower twentyfive per cent had become an executive.
You see，there are certain factors in success that can be measured as scientifically as the contents of a testtube，and it has been discovered that the most common characteristic of outstanding success is “an extensive knowledge of the exact meaning of English words”.
