We can see waste everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don't agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources（资源）, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal（煤） or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need and so on. Little by little, we will change everything. We can stop waste one day, if we do our best.

We know the mosquito very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world， and there are more than 2，500 kinds of them.
No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide that she loves you. She？ Yes，she. It‘s true that male mosquito doesn’t bite（咬） and only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds， she bites. But if she doesn‘t like your blood，she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you，just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others！
If the mosquito likes you，she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites，you will have an itch（痒） on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. By the time the itching begins，and she has flown away.
And then what happens？ Well，after her delicious dinner，the mosquito feels tired. She just wants to find a place to have a good rest. There，on a leaf or a wall， she begins to lay eggs，hundreds of eggs.

A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ¥100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this ¥100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.
Then he said, “I am going to give this ¥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air.
“Well,” he said, “What if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said, “Who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.
“My friends,” he said, “you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter (无论) what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value (价值). It was still worth ¥ l00!”
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love you. Your value doesn’t come from what you do or whom you know, but WHO YOU ARE.
You are special and valuable. Don’t ever forget it!
