1 Be an Optimist 做一个乐观的人
Do you see the glass as half-full rather than hall empty? The two different answers to the question represent two different attitudes towards life — optimistic attitude and pessimistic attitude.
Optimism always leads to happiness, health and success while pessimism, by contrast, results in hopelessness, sickness and failure. That's because optimists and pessimists deal with the same challenges and disappointments in very different ways. When things go wong the pessimist tends to blame himself, while the optimist looks for loop holes. The optimist feels in control of his oval life. If things are going badly, he acts quickly, looking for solutions, forming a new plan of action, and seeking for advice. On the contrary, the pessimist yields to the arrangement of fate and moves slowly. He doesn't seek advice, since he assumes nothing can be done.
Most people are a mix of optimism and pessimism. Optimism is important in all aspects of our lives. If you can change your mind from pessimism to optimism, you can change your life.
你看到的杯子是半满，而不是半空的？对这个问题的不同回答代表两种不同的态度对待生活的乐观态度和悲观的态度。
乐观主义者总是带来幸福，健康和成功，而悲观，相反，导致绝望，疾病和失败。这是因为乐观者和悲观主义者在应对挑战和失望的方式非常不同。当事情黄了悲观主义者倾向于责备自己，而乐观主义者寻找漏洞。乐观主义者认为在他的椭圆形的人生。如果事情不顺利，他立刻做出反应，寻找解决办法，制定新的行动计划，并寻求建议。相反，悲观主义者屈服于命运的安排，慢慢地移动。他并不寻求建议，因为他认为没有什么可以做。
大多数人都是乐观主义和悲观主义。乐观是在我们生活的所有方面的重要。如果你可以改变你的心从悲观到乐观，你就可以改变你的生活。
2 遇到挫折的态度 Encounter setbacks
As is shown in the picture above, two men react in completely opposite ways when faced with the same event: A bottle fell off on the ground, and the wine inside spilt out. One is smiling, feeling glad that he still has the rest half of the wine while the other is sighing in great desperation saying that “everything screwed up!” The cartoon tells us that being optimistic and being pessimistic are two different attitudes towards life. Faced with a challenge, a pessimistic person may feel gloomy and distressed. He considers himself powerless, and complains about it all day long, refusing even to have a try before giving it up in the end. An optimistic person, however, may adopt an entirely different approach. He may not regard the challenge as something that bad; instead, he takes it as an excellent opportunity to display his abilities and talent. As an old saying goes, “The way you perceive the world will determine your way to cope with it.” In my point of view, though it is natural that we encounter challenges of one kind or another in our life, we should be optimistic whenever we are confronted with challenges. If we are pessimistic, we are destined to fail, ending up accomplishing nothing. But if we approach the challenges in an optimistic way, we may go from victory to victory.
正如图中所示，两人的反应完全相反的方式面对同一个事件：一个瓶子掉在了地上，而里面的酒洒了出来。一个微笑，感觉很高兴，他还有剩下的酒一半，另杰出的绝望的叹息说：“一切都搞砸了！这幅漫画告诉我们，乐观和悲观是对生活的不同态度。面对挑战，悲观的人可能会感到沮丧和苦恼。他认为自己是无能为力的，并且整天抱怨，甚至拒绝在最后一次尝试之前就放弃了。然而，一个乐观的人可能会采取完全不同的方法。他可能不认为这是一个坏的东西，相反，他把它作为一个极好的机会来展示自己的能力和才华。正如那句老话，“路上你感知世界将确定您的方式来应付它。”在我看来，这是很自然的，我们遇到的挑战一种或另一种，在我们的生活，我们应该乐观时，我们所面临的挑战。如果我们是悲观的，我们注定要失败，最终一事无成。但是，如果我们以乐观的方式接近挑战，我们可以从胜利走向胜利。
3 希望 I hope
During our daily life many people may have such an experience of losing something that is important but finding it later and so do I.
在我们的日常生活中，许多人可能会有这样的，失去的东西，是重要的，但后来发现它，我也一样。
One day, I was about to go into the cinema when I found my ticket gone. How I regretted losing my ticket because I had looked forward to the film for a long time. I was cast down. As a result, I had no choice but to return home. The moment I turned back, I heard someone calling to me, so I stopped and saw a boy holding a ticket in his hand, which was unbelievable.
有一天，当我发现我的票不在时，我就要去看电影了。我多么后悔失去了我的票，因为我期待着这部电影很长一段时间。我被扔下。因此，我别无选择，只能回家了。我一转身，就听见有人打电话给我，所以我停下来，看到一个男孩手里拿着一张票，这是难以置信的。
From the experience, I understand that even if our society may not be perfect as we imagine, there still exist honesty and kindness. Sometimes, just because we are too careless, we don’t find them. Therefore, we should believe our society is full of honesty and kindness just like sunshine in our hearts.
从经历中，我明白了，即使我们的社会可能不是完美的，正如我们想象的那样，仍然存在着诚实和善良。有时候，只是因为我们太粗心，我们找不到他们。因此，我们应该相信我们的社会充满了诚实和善良，就像阳光在我们心中。
