Why is setting goals so {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（importance）? Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything {#blank#}2{#/blank#} you want in life. Instead {#blank#}3{#/blank#} always letting life happen to you accidentally, goals allow yourself{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (make) your life happen in control. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (success) and happy people have set lots of goals to help them reach their aims. By {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (set) goals you can take control of your life. It's like having a map to show you {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you want to go.

    Winners in life always set goals and then follow{#blank#}8{#/blank#}. Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (goal) are not difficult to set, and they are also not difficult to reach.

    People realize that, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} animals may not have the same intelligence as human beings, they are smart enough to learn certain things.

    Dogs are {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (extreme) useful as companions for blind people. When a dog has been properly trained, he will always lead his master {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the right direction and keep him out of danger.

    Horses are also able to learn many things. Horses that are used for guard or police duty must learn never to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (frighten) of noises, traffic, and other disturbances. Racing horses are also quite strong. Therefore, it is necessary for those people {#blank#}5{#/blank#} train them to be very patient and understanding.

    The moving pictures and television can use {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (train) animals too. Some animals, such as monkeys and foxes, are easy to film. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you have to do is make a trail in front of the camera by dragging something that smells good to {#blank#}8{#/blank#} animals over the ground. Big animals, such as lions and tigers, can be photographed as they bound happily back to {#blank#}9{#/blank#} families and dinner. If a movie actor is nearby, the well-trained animal will pay no attention to him. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}, the audience may imagine that the actor escaped a terrible death by the skin of his teeth.

    A researcher has made a report {#blank#}1{#/blank#} says having a lot of money makes you a bad person. Professor Paul Piff spent ten years {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (look) at the personalities of rich people and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (find) that their behaviour was very different {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the behavior of poor people. Rich people are more likely to break {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (rule), not follow the law, and not care about other people. Wealthy people cheat more at games and are less likely to help other people. Professor Piff told the BBC, “Wealth makes you more {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (worry) about your own interests, your own desires, your own welfare.” He added that rich people think their own goals and needs are the most {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (importance) thing in their life.

    Professor Piff also found that poor people are more generous than rich people. The poor give a higher percentage of their money {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (help) others than the rich. The {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (wealth) you are, the less generous you are. You give significantly smaller portions away to other people. However, he said that rich people could change their behavior and become nicer {#blank#}10{#/blank#} more generous.

    Qigong, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (call) "Life Energy Cultivation" in China,is a practice of focusing on breath, movement, and a awareness for exercise, and healing. If you have taken Chinese lessons, you must be familiar with Confucius（孔子）, according to {#blank#}2{#/blank#} qigong provides a means to become a Junzi (gentleman) through awareness of morality .Taoism considers qigong a way to achieve spiritual improvement.

    Few people would even think of beginning a new job at the age of 76, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} one of America's most famous artists did just that. Anna Mary Robertson, better known as "Grandma Moses", turned to painting {#blank#}2{#/blank#} she was too old to work on her farm.

    Grandma Moses was crazy about painting soon after she picked it up and worked hard at it. She painted{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (care) and her works were nice .She first painted only to please {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (she),and then began to sell her works {#blank#}5{#/blank#} a little money. In 1993,a collector, Louis Caldor, happened to see several of Grandma Moses' works {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (hang) in a shop.
