Time is such valuable for every one of us.Even it is more valuable than money.The reason is that when money is spent,we can earn back.However,when time was gone,it will never come back.So we must value our time.
From birth to death,time is limited for all of us.So we should make well use of it.As students,what we should do first is to study well and obtain knowledges so that we can serve  our country in the future.
Therefore,some people don't know the value of time.They spend time do meaningless things,such as smoking,drinking and even gambling.
You should form a good habit of saving time.Don't put off that we should do till tomorrow.Laziness will bring us the poverty as well as failure.

An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife, enjoying his extended family. He would miss the pay check, but he needed to retire.

The employer was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He used shoddy materials to build the house. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.

When the carpenter finished his work and the employer came to inspect the house, he handed the front-door key to the carpenter. “This is your house,” he said, “my gift to you.”

What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in a home he hadn’t built very well.

It is the same with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up with less than the best. At important points, we don’t give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized that, we would have done it differently.

Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall, build wisely. It is the only life you ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity. The plague (牌匾) on the wall says, “Life is a do-it-yourself project.”

Who could say it more clearly? Your life today is the result of your attitudes and choices in the past. Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

1.Why was the carpenter ready to retire?

A. He wanted to have a relaxed life.

B. He found a better-paid job.

C. He could still survive without working.

D. He was tired of his job.

2.What does the underlined word “shoddy” in the second paragraph probably mean?

A. Beautiful. B. Best. C. Bad. D. General.

3.What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph?

A. We should build a good house to live in.

B. We always regret what we have done.

C. We should try our best to do things well.

D. We prefer to react, rather than act.

4.What does the author mainly want to tell us in the text?

A. We should build a house wisely.

B. Life is a do-it-yourself project.

C. Building a house is like building a life.

D. We should have the right attitude towards life.

Five years after a donor's bone marrow (骨髓)saved a pair of twin girls’ lives, the girls , Elizabeth and Kathryn ,from Minnesota got the chance to thank the man face to face.

The girls’ mother, Michele, said, “To think that somebody who didn’t know your children was selfless enough to give bone marrow to save them is amazing. They gave him giant hugs and danced the night away with him like they had known him before.”

The meeting came together thanks to Be the Match, a community of donors, volunteers, health care professionals and researchers.

The girl were born with a rare disorder that left them without any blood platelets(血小板).The bone marrow transplant was needed to change their DNA to avoid their organs shutting down.

Michele, her husband, and their son, tested negative when it came to being a match for the girls. They were put on the Be the Match list, which finally found Gruda.

“I become breathless,'' Michele said about finding a match. " because there are still so many things that could go wrong even though you have a donor."

Due to the uncertain result, the girls had to have their transplants done separately. Elizabeth’s was in 2011, and Kathryn’s was in 2012. The two girls also had to undergo chemotherapy(化療).

The family was finally able to express their gratitude in person after Be the Match flew Gruda to Minnesota from Germany.

Gruda, who has three children of his own, tried to donate to a local girl in his town nearly 30 years ago but was not a match. Five years ago, he received a phone call that he was a match for the sisters and didn't hesitate to donate.
