with the other sixth graders. lucy, a girl in my class, who i thought was not ready for change, didnt like me from the start. in fact, i was pretty sure she hated me. i would ask her a question, and i could tell she thought i was a total fool. my teacher made us sit by each other for the last term. lucy was horrified (惊骇的). i didnt wear make-up (化妆品), and i didnt wear those terrible bell-bottom pants. i didnt exactly look like the coolest girl. but, i kept smiling at her, though she rolled her eyes, and i kept telling her she looked beautiful, even when she was angry. finally, lucy let me talk to her, even in sight of her “cool” friends. she started telling me how beautiful i looked. i still remember that first time when she smiled at me saying that, and i smiled right back, telling her thanks. lucy invited me over to her house for a party, and talked to me all the time instead of her other friends. lucy, the girl who hated me, called me her best friend. after that, we still were good friends a whole year later. i may have moved to arizona after that, but i will never forget lucy. its funny i still remember her birthday. she was a great friend. and to think, she considered me her enemy at first. though it was hard, and it felt like i was wasting my time, and losing my dignity (尊严), i still smiled at lucy when she made fun of me. im not stupid, i didnt think she was right in doing those things, but i still put up with it. and we became great friends.about two weeks ago, i read a sentence by abraham lincoln: “am i not destroying my enemies when i make friends of them?” immediately, i smiled, thinking of lucy. that sentence just reminded me how great it was for me to change lucy into my friend in that state of iowa five years ago.【小题1】. when the author started at a

friends means losing enemies.d. kindness can defeat any enemy.d why cant some people even get an inch of what they dream of becoming? blame it on pure dreaming and lack of surrounding goals for achieving their dreams. setting goals is very significant part of accomplishing and positive actions. it is like scaling(攀爬) a 200 feet construction and marking in the early hours on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period. people who set goals literally generate a map of their goal settings in life, marking where they should start, where to pause, where to study a bit, and where and when to end. once this map comes into being, it allows the map drawer to check where he is in the scheme(安排) of things and whether or not he is making some planning that will take him closer to his goals. by surrounding goals, people will know how they are doing and what they should be doing to get their goals or dreams in life. they will know if they can relax or if they have to double their efforts when they are falling short of what is expected of them. goal surroundings means a person is prepared in dealing with challenges that may affect his plans. being proactive means one is able to outline possible difficulties that may occur as well as the solutions to these difficulties. by doing this, a person is not easily scared or defeated when challenges occur because he has already prepared for them. he knows they can
