Here is a story.A man sees a butterfly.The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis(蛹).Feeling sorry for it，the man decides to help.He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily.Surprisingly enough，the butterfly is unable to fly! If the butterfly doesn't struggle(挣扎) to leave the chrysalis，it can't fly.The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly.Similarly，the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make them fly.

When people are young，meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life.When we look at successful people，we see that the most successful of them are those who have had to

struggle.One famous businessman，who now owns many big supermarkets，used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young.Another successful man is Dennis.His father died when he was only twenty.His father's death forced him to __mature__ fast.He had to bring up a family of nine people.He took up the challenges and overcame them.Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives.

Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them.So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges.They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rock-climbing，camping，volunteer work and so on.However，just passing exams will not prepare a person for life.We must meet and overcome challenges.The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow.For countries to continue to become successful，it is important for young people to learn to meet and overcome the challenges.

Beautiful pictures of mountains and forests，clear skies，flying birds，wild animals，silly faces—you can find them all in one place.Why? On a postcard! Have people always sent postcards? No! Before postcards，people liked to send the sealed letters.

The picture for the first decorated postcard came to John P．Charlton in 1861.He thought a simple card with a border(饰边) would be a great way to send a message.Then in the late 1800s，postcards which had pictures on them changed.By law，people had to write their notes in the front of the picture! The back was only for the address.Several years

later，England allowed a divided—back postcard.Then people could write their notes on the back of the left side.And they put the address on the right.During the early 1900s，the golden age of postcards，people around the world were more and more interested in picture postcards.In 1908，Americans alone mailed over 677 million postcards.

Today，the postcard is the third most popular collection in the world after the stamp and coin.You can always see or get a newly—designed one，especially on New Year's Day.

My favorite teacher

It's time to graduate from junior high school.I'd like to write something about my favorite teacher.Of all the teachers，I like my English teacher best.She is a lovely and outgoing girl who loves singing and reading.She is of medium height and has long straight hair.

When I was in Grade Seven，I was so shy that I was afraid to take part in the English competition.She encouraged me not to give up any chance to show myself to others.Thanks to her，I changed my attitude to the challenge and won the first prize.

I will never forget the wonderful time we were together.Best wishes to her！
