As a child，one of my favorite things to do was to go to the river and sit on the bank．There I would enjoy the peace and quiet．Watching the river，listening to the chirps（鳥鳴）of the birds and the sound of moving leaves in the tress relaxed me after a hard day at school．
I noticed that the bamboo trees would bend（彎曲） in the wind．However，after the wind had died down they would stand up again．
When I think about the bamboo tree's ability，the word "resilience" comes to mind.This word means the ability to overcome shock，low spirits and other difficult situations quickly．
Have you ever felt like you are about to break suddenly？Have you ever felt like you are at your breaking point？Thankfully，you have survived（幸免）such an experience．During the experience you probably had mixed emotions（情感）.You felt very tired．
Life is a mixture of good times and bad things，happy moments and unhappy moments.The next time you are having a bad time or unhappy moment，bend but don't break.Try your hardest not to let the situation take control of you．
Hope will get you through the unhappy times．With hope for a better tomorrow or a better Situation，things may not be as bad as they seem to be．
If life gets hard and you are at your breaking point，show resilience.Like the bamboo tree，bend，but don't break!

1．Most people want to be happy，but few know how to find happiness.Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness.Aristotle，a Greek thinker，said， "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words，we make our own happiness.Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life.Too often，we spend so much time thinking about the future -for example，getting into college or getting a good job -that we fail to enjoy the present.You should enjoy life's simple pleasures，such as reading a good book，listening to your favorite music，or spending time with close friends.People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active，and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time.Many people experience this dancing，or playing a sport，such as swimming.You can forget about your problems，and only think about the activity.Finally，many people find happiness in helping others.
Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others.If you want to feel happier，do good things for someone.You can help a friend with his or her studies，go shopping to buy food for an elderly person，or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

3．A girl was working as a nurse in a private hospital．One day，a patient with serious disease was brought to the hospital ，but had to be transferred （轉(zhuǎn)移） to another hospital at once for an operation（ 手術(shù)）．However，the director of the hospital said the patient couldn't be transferred unless he paid his bill first．The patient's family was very poor．They had no choice but to ask if they could pay the bill after the operation because the patient was close to death．But their request was refused．
