20、 guards excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel.

21、 Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passengers such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.”I said. There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story a

28、p him. He would die before 23.At first, Hawking became very depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, “Before my illness was diagnosed(诊断), I had been very bored with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I ca
29、me out of hospital, I suddenly realised that there were a lot of worthwhile(值得做的) things I could do.” Then Hawking got married and found a job at Cambridge University as a professor.

35、ng with rain. Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again. To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping along the path singing, “Im singing in the rain”, a song I used to sing when I was a child. I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inne
36、r children and as a result we restrain(限制) our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.
