Last weekend, my parents told me a good news that my family would go camping with my uncle’s family.I feel so excited about it, because I could spend the whole night outside,which had never been happened before.When the day came, we brought the equipments and some food. In the afternoon, the two families settled down, and then they started to walk around. My cousins and I rushed to a forest and went to the highest point, there we could appreciate the whole sight. Stood on the highest place, I felt so greatly. We enjoyed a grander sight by climbing a greater height. At night, we set fire and danced happily. It was so a happy moment for me.
During the winter vacation,I was involved in an image-processing project. My task was to extract（提取）the shape of every cell from a(n)__ of microscope images. It seemed quite straightforward at first,but it turned out to be __.
Since I did not have any experience in image processing,I studied some basic ___on my own and started to use a very popular function library(函数库）called OpenCV. As the time was __,I just learnt to apply techniques without going into the mathematical rationale(原理）。As a result,I didn't complete the task in an efficient way and____lots of time.
Through this project,I got a good __ of the importance of studying the basic knowledge. I will probably ___to spend more time studying the theory before I ___another project. By learning their underlying mechanisms(机制），I will be able to ___the tools to suit my own needs. In this way,1 may achieve___ results.
Another challenge I met was about the brightness setting. When I sketched(勾勒）the __ of the cell by the computer,I first set the brightness value to 50,___that the computer could delete the dark places and extract the shape of the cell___. But it turned out that the standard didn't fit for every image. So 1____the brightness value to 30,but that didn't __ either. It was very hard to find a value that worked for all ____
From this,I began to appreciate human eyes. Our eyes ___the amount of light entering them automatically through a feedback system to achieve the best image representation,but computers are not that __. There is still so much that we don't know about the human body.
In summary,I think it is good for students to be involved in real projects___ they can begin to learn about various fundamental ___and get themselves ready for the future.

What is happiness? When you can feel inner peace and satisfaction, you are happy. 1. This usually happens when we do something we love or achieve something that we value. It is our opinions that make us feel happy or unhappy. All of us constantly go through various situations or conditions, but we do not have to let them influence our reactions and feelings.2..
Try hard to make a change of the way you look at things.3. That means looking at the good and positive side of every situation. Pay attention to solutions, not problems. Listen to relaxing and uplifting music. Watch funny and interesting programs that make you laugh.
Always look at what you have done and not at what you haven’t done. Look at what you can do, not at what you cannot do. Each day do at least one act to make others happy. When you make someone happy, you’ll become happy, and then people will try to make you happy.4. On the contrary, be happy for their happiness. Communicate with happy people and try to learn from them to be happy. Remember ? do your best to stay detached (冷静的) when things do not occur as intended and desired. Detachment has much to do with inner peace.5.
A.I’ve never regretted it.
B.Always look at the bright side.
C.Do not envy people who are happy.
D.Stop asking for everyone’s approval.
E.Inner peace can lead to happiness, so smile more often.
F.Here are a few tips for increasing happiness in daily life.
G.It is usually experienced at a special moment.
We tend to believe that older people are more positive and younger people are more sensitive to social cues (暗示).
Recently scientists investigated this idea by testing 10,000 men and women. They wanted to see if age affected a person’s ability to identify subtle facial emotions, such as fear and anger.
The researchers from McLean Hospital in the US used a Web-based platform to collect happiness data. It showed the participants two headshots (头部特写) of random people. They were then asked to identify which subject was angrier, happier, or more fearful. The research found that younger people were able to better identify angry and fearful facial cues than older people.
“From the previous studies , we know that the everyday experiences of an adolescent are different from an older person, but we wanted to understand how these experiences might be linked with differences in basic emotion understanding,” wrote Laura Germine, the study’s senior author.
But what is it that makes young people more sensitive?
“This is the exact age when young people are most sensitive to forms of negative social cues, such as bullying,” Lauren Rutter, the study’s lead author, told Science Daily. “The normal development of anger sensitivity can contribute to some of the challenges that arise during this phase of development.”
On the contrary, across the whole 10,000-person survey, researchers found no decline in the perception (感知)of happiness among older participants.
“What’s remarkable is that we see declines in many visual perceptual abilities as we get older, but here we did not see such declines in the perception of happiness,” Germine told Neuro Science News.
She added that these findings fit well with other research, showing that older adults tend to have more positive emotions and a positive outlook.
Following the paper’s release, Rutter told Neuro Science News that gathering their primary research online allowed the team to tap into a “much larger and more diverse sample set” than previous studies.

Not long ago, few little girls imagined they could grow up to become astronauts. For years in the United States, only men had that opportunity. In 1983, that changed. Sally Ride made history by becoming the first American woman to travel to space.
On Monday, Ride died at the age of 61, “Sally was a national hero and a powerful role model,” President Barack Obama said in a statement. “She inspired generations of young girls to reach for the stars.”
Ride became interested in space when she was a kid. “If you asked me when I was 12 whether I wanted to be an astronaut, I’m sure I wou1d have said yes,” she said in a 2010 interview . “But I didn’t even think about that as a possible career.”
After studying physics in college and graduate school, Ride got her chance. She was accepted into NASA’s astronaut training program in 1978, and then chosen to be the first American female in space. In 1983, she blasted into space aboard the Challenger shuttle. “There is no amusement park ride on the Earth that even comes so close,” she said.
Ride returned to space on the Challenger a second time in 1984. Between the two missions, she spent a total of 343 hours in orbit. After that, she remained involved with the space program and also worked to share her passion for science with kids. She co-authored six science books for children , and started her own science education company.
Ride knew that she held a unique place in history. “I realized how important it was for a woman to break that barrier and open the door for other women to be able to do the same exciting things that the men had been doing,” she said.
Since Ride’s historic trip, more than 40 other American women have traveled to space.
They all had Ride to thank for opening the door to the final frontier.
