　　We are living in a highly challenging world. We are to be always ready to challenging challenge .In so doing; we must be good at sharing what is available to us with somebody else. We must first manage to give rather than to take. In other words， we should not fail to be a responsible member of society. Only in this way can we afford to achieve our goal in life and will not remain good for nothing instead.

　　Have you ever thought of all this？
