    Sandwiches are delicious, but do you know how the first sandwich came? An English earl(伯爵)called John Montagu made it three hundred years ago. Montagu was interested in card games. He would play these games with his friends for a long time. He found it too boring to stop his games for meals.

    One day, in the middle of a game, Montagu was served a meal of sliced meat with bread. At that time, Montagu was playing the game that needed its players to cover one card over another. As Montagu looked at both the game and his food, an idea came to his mind.

    He took a piece of bread, put a piece of meat on it and covered that with another piece of bread. Then Montagu could play cards with one hand and eat his meal with another.

    Montagu's friends called the new meal sandwich because Montagu's full title was “the Earl of Sandwich”.

Decide to Do Well

    Everybody makes decisions in daily life. They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the turning point of your life.

    I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.

    Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didn't know that only kids want to show themselves as adults.

    I didn't listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.

    At the turning point of my life, my mum wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldn't refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, mum just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard.

    Mum smiled and asked again, "I asked 'what do you WANT to do'?"

    I never seriously thought about the question. So, I kept silent.

    "Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society," she went on, "it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you, not by anyone else, including me. "After saying that, she had tears in her eyes.

    For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself, my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.

    It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in nay life-I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard.

    The path to my future became clear to me. I didn't act rebelliously(叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.

    Now, I'm 17 and I'm in one of the best schools in my city, in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.

    Thanks to that decision, I have become what I am today.
