§ What is the best advice you have ever received? Describe how it has helped you and how you have used it.

Once I was having a self study class in one classroom, and I saw a book lying in the drawer of the table which I sat beside.

It has a red cover, on the top of it the white title told me its name: <>.

It is a little book full of magic and imagination. It tells me that just keep thinking, keep dreaming and keep believing and one day, all of them, your dreams, will become reality..

Think it over, it does state the truth of life. If people never dreamed of flying in the sky, the air craft would not be invented. If people never thought about how the earth looked like, we would probably now believe that the earth is flat. If people never imagined there were other continents on the other side of the world, America would not be discovered.

I believe, that imagination is the strongest tool for man kind. This is the advice that the book offered me: to imagine.

Take a look at the education in China, my country. Most of the teachers and parents focus on telling young generation what they should not do rather than what they should do. It makes children believe that being wrong is very shameful. Even though they have very talented ideas they are afraid of telling others, they are afraid of being laughed at. The result is, when they gradually grow up, they become lack of imagination and creativity.

The situation of education in my country reminds me of some most famous dreamers in history, Walt Disney, Charlie Chaplin, Michael Jackson and so on. Thanks to them, we can now enjoy such wonderful cartoons, such touching movies and such fantastic music. No one has ever told them they should not draw a mouse or make Thriller. They were free to imagine. God always likes the one who is special, or thinks specially. If everyone consider their thoughts be silly and unrealistic, our world would be black and white.

Besides artists, people in business field also need to be creative. If not, then Starbucks would not have spread all over the world, and it would not have gained so much praise from both the consumers and its employees.

“ Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the creators.” (引用，from <> by Michael Jackson, published in 1992.)

As I stated above, the happiness and fortune come from your mind. I want to be creative and create the life my style. But I do not think the atmosphere in China is suitable for me, that is why I choose United States as the place where I further my university education.

§ What is the best advice you have ever received? Describe how it has helped you and how you have used it.
你曾经有接受过哪些忠告吗？你认为最好的一条是？描述一下它是怎样帮助到你以及你怎样使用它？
Once I was having a self study class in one classroom, and I saw a book lying in the drawer of the table which I sat beside.
一次，我在一间教室正上这自习课，我看见坐在旁边桌的抽屉里有一本书。


It has a red cover, on the top of it the white title told me its name: <>.
它是红色封面，在上面写着书名：《》（这里没有写书名，根据上下文可知，是Dancing the Dream,《梦舞诗话》）


It is a little book full of magic and imagination. It tells me that just keep thinking, keep dreaming and keep believing and one day, all of them, your dreams, will become reality..
这是一本充满魔力和想象力的书。它告诉我就是不断思考，不要放弃梦想，相信自己，将来有一天你所有梦想都将会成真。


Think it over, it does state the truth of life. If people never dreamed of flying in the sky, the air craft would not be invented. If people never thought about how the earth looked like, we would probably now believe that the earth is flat. If people never imagined there were other continents on the other side of the world, America would not be discovered.
想了又想，它的确反映了现实生活。如果人们不曾梦想在天空飞翔，飞机将不会被发明。如果人们不曾思考地球是什么样子，我们现在还可能相信地球是平的。如果人们不曾想象还有其他大陆在世界的另一边，美洲将不会被发现。


I believe, that imagination is the strongest tool for man kind. This is the advice that the book offered me: to imagine.
我相信，对于人类而言，想象力是强而有力的工具。这就是那本书给我的最好的忠告：去想象。


Take a look at the education in China, my country. Most of the teachers and parents focus on telling young generation what they should not do rather than what they should do. It makes children believe that being wrong is very shameful. Even though they have very talented ideas they are afraid of telling others, they are afraid of being laughed at. The result is, when they gradually grow up, they become lack of imagination and creativity.
看一下我们中国的教育，很多老师和家长只注重教育年轻一代他们不应该做什么，而不是教育他们应该做什么。这就使孩子们觉得犯错就是一件很羞耻的事。即使他们有很好的主意，也会很害怕告诉别人，害怕被人家嘲笑。结果，当他们慢慢长大成人后，他们就变得缺乏想象力和创造力。


The situation of education in my country reminds me of some most famous dreamers in history, Walt Disney, Charlie Chaplin, Michael Jackson and so on. Thanks to them, we can now enjoy such wonderful cartoons, such touching movies and such fantastic music. No one has ever told them they should not draw a mouse or make Thriller. They were free to imagine. God always likes the one who is special, or thinks specially. If everyone consider their thoughts be silly and unrealistic, our world would be black and white.
我国这种教育状况使我想起在历史上一些很著名的梦想家，华特·迪士尼，查尔斯·卓别林，迈克尔·杰克逊等。有了他们的贡献，我们才可以享受到那么精彩的卡通，那么动人的电影和那么美妙的音乐。没有人告诉过他们不应该画老鼠或者不要制作Thriller。他们自由想象。上帝总会眷顾特别的人，或者可以说特别会想的人。如果每个人都觉得他们自己的想法是愚蠢的，不现实的，那么我们的世界只有黑和白。

Besides artists, people in business field also need to be creative. If not, （then应去掉，有If就不用加） Starbucks would not have spread all over the world, and it would not have gained so much praise from both the consumers and its employees.
除了艺术家之外，在商业领域的人们也需要富有创造力。如果不是这样，那么星巴克就不会席卷全球，也不会得到那么多来自消费者和员工的赞誉。


“ Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the creators.” (引用，from <> by Michael Jackson, published in 1992.)
意识凭借创作表达，我们住的这个世界是场创作者的舞蹈。（引用，《梦舞诗话》，迈克尔·杰克逊，于1992发行）


As I stated above, the happiness and fortune come from your mind. I want to be creative and create the life my style. But I do not think the atmosphere in China is suitable for me, that is why I choose United States as the place where I further my university education.
正如我所上面所说的，幸福和财富来源于你的想法。我想要变得富有创造力的，创造属于我自己的生活。但我觉得中国的氛围不适合我，这就是我选择美国作为我大学进修的地方。
