Once upon a time, all the feelings(感受) such as Happiness, Sadness and Love lived together on an island. One day the feelings heard that the island would sink(下沉). They all repaired their boats and left except Love. Love wanted to stay until the last possible moment. Just as the island began to sink, Love decided to ask for help.

Miserliness(吝嗇) was passing by Love in a big boat. Love said, “Miserliness, can you take me with you?” Miserliness answered, “I can’t. There are a lot of silver(銀子) in my boat. There is no place for you here.”

Love decided to ask Vanity(虛榮) who was also passing by in a beautiful boat. “Vanity, please help me!” “I can’t help you, Love. You are all wet. You’ll make my boat dirty.” Vanity said.

Sadness was close by, so Love asked for help, “Sadness, let me go with you.” “Oh…Love. I am very sad and I need to stay in my boat by myself!”

Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear Love call her.

Suddenly, there was a voice, “Love, I will take you.” It was an old woman. Love felt so lucky that he even forgot to ask for her name. When they got to dry land, the old woman went away. Love asked Knowledge, another old woman, “Who helped me?”

“It was Time,” Knowledge answered.

“Time?” asked Love. “But why did Time help me?”

Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom(智慧) and answered, “Because only Time can understand how great Love is.”

It’s important to have some friends in your life. The following types of friends are just what you need to keep happy.

1. A Loyal Best Friend

Sometimes a loyal best friend is the only thing you need to stay calm. Everyone needs a friend who will support them at any time. He knows all of your deepest and darkest secrets, but still loves you all the same.

2. A Friend From a Different Culture

If everyone had a friend from a different culture, the world would be a much better place. Being in a cross-cultural friendship allows you to explore customs, values, and traditions outside of your own culture. Perhaps you can learn some new ways to do things.

So, don’t be afraid of someone that is from a different culture. Instead, keep your mind open, and make the effort to learn about something different while getting to know the person.

3. A Friendly Neighbor

These days, a lot of people don’t know their own neighbors. It’s a pity, because some neighbors can help you a lot sometimes. If you’re on a vacation, and you suddenly realize that you forgot to lock the door, you can call up your neighbor and ask them to lock it for you.

Life is full of surprises and you never know how things will turn out .Sir John Gurdon is a good example of this. As a boy, he was told he was hopeless at science and finished bottom of his class. Now, aged 79, the very same Gurdon shared the 2012 Nobe Prize in Medicine with Japanese stem cell(干細胞) researcher Shinya Yamanaka.

Like so many scientists, Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance (堅持不懈)can lead.

At the age of 15 in 1948, Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject. Gurdon’s high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming a scientist was“quite ridiculous”.

In spite of his teacher s criticisms，Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard. He went to the lab early and left later than anyone else. He experienced thousands of failures.

“My own belief is that we will, in the end, understand everything about how cells actually work,” Gurdon said.

In 1962, Gurdon took a cell from an adult frog and moved its genetic(基因的）information into an egg cell. The egg cell then grew into a clone(克隆) of the adult frog. This technique later helped to create Dolly the sheep in 1996, the first cloned mammal(哺乳動物）in the world.

In 2006，Gurdon’s work was developed by Yamanaka to show that a sample(樣本）of a person’s skin can be used to create stem cells. Using this technique, doctors can repair a patient’s heart after a heart attack.

Luck favors the prepared mind Gurdon told the Nobel Prize Organization. “Ninety percent of the time things don’t work，but when they do，you have to seize(抓�。﹖he chance.”
