One day in class, the teacher on the platform(讲台) held up n apple and said, "Please smell the smell in the air!"
One student raised his hand and answered, "I have smelled it. It is the smell of an apple."
The teacher stepped off the platform, passed by each of the students and said, "Please smell again to see if the smell of the apple is still in the air."
Half of the students raised their hands to show that they could smell it. The teacher returned to the front of the classroom and asked again if the students could smell the apple. Everyone raised their hands except one student. The teacher came to the student and asked, "You really can't smell the apple?"
The student answered, "No, I can't smell it. I don't think it's a real apple."
The teacher smiled at the student and said to the class, "He is right! This is not a real apple."
All of the other students were tricked. They might have thought that perhaps the apple was not real, but they didn't have the self- confidence to speak up. They just "followed the leader" and went along with the first student.
Please remember: Believe in yourself first, and then others will believe in you!

During my second month of nursing(护理) school, our teacher gave us a test. I was a hard-working student and the answers easily until I read the last one. "What is the name of the woman who cleans the school?" Surely this was very funny. Every day I saw the woman in the school She was tall, dark-haired and in her fifties, but how could I her name?
I in my paper, leaving the last question with no answer. Before the class was over, one student the teacher if the last question would be counted in our grades. "Of course! Because this is a very important question." said the teacher. "In your life you many people. Every person noticeable(值得注意的)and important to you. You about them, even if all you do is smile and hello to them."
I never that question. I later learned her name was Dorothy.
Cindy, Jerry and Mary are giving their opinions about a good friend. Cindy: I think a good friend should be honest That's more important than any other thing. If a friend isn't honest, he may lose his friends' trust. Jerry: I think a good friend has to be generous. Here "generous" doesn't mean he has to give his friends his money or his clothes. It means he should share his ideas and feelings with his friends. In fact, his friends can know him better in this way. Mary: In my opinion, a good friend should understand his friends. When there's something wrong between him and his friends, he must put himself in his friends' places and think more for his friends.
