Have you ever complain why life is so tiring？ Does the sky sometimes seem dark to you？ Are your studies sometimes not successful？ Well， friends， cheer up and smile all the same. If you see the world with your warm heart， you'll find the whole world smiles to you.

While in school， sometimes you are tired of your lessons， but have you noticed the happy smile on your teacher’s face when you did a good job？

One day it is fine. Just before you want to go out， it suddenly starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very sad and start complaining about the weather. But dear friends， why don't you sit down and listen to the free concert that the nature offers you？ And with the timely rain， crops in the fields will grow better and farmers will have a good harvest.

Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do， sometimes failure can’t be avoided. I think failure is not terrible， and the terrible thing is that we are afraid of it and give up hope. When we face failure， we must be confident in ourselves， draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do. As a popular saying goes，“Failure is the mother of success.”

Attitude decides everything. With an optimistic attitude life is easy and pleasant. Let’s smile to whatever we meet and the whole world will smile to us.

譯文

微笑，世界對你微笑

你抱怨過為什么生活那么累呢？你的天空有時暗淡無光嗎？你的功課有時不夠好嗎？那么，朋友，還是振作精神并微笑以對吧。假如你用溫暖的心看世界，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)整個世界都在對你微笑。

在學校里有時你厭倦你的功課，但你是否留意過在你表現(xiàn)良好時老師臉上露出的愉悅笑容？

有一天天氣很好，你正要出門，卻突然下起了雨。也許你會感到很不高興，并開始抱怨天氣。但是親愛的朋友，為什么不坐下來聽一場大自然賜予的免費音樂會呢？而且有了這場及時雨，田里的莊稼會長得更好，農民會有好的收成。

雖然人人都想心想事成，但有時失敗不可避免。我想失敗并不可怕，可怕的是我們害怕失敗、放棄希望。面對失敗時我們必須自信，從中汲取有用的教訓，并盡力完成決心要做的事情。正如一句廣為流傳的俗話所說的那樣，“失敗是成功之母”。

態(tài)度決定一切。有了樂觀的態(tài)度，生活就會輕松、愉快。無論遇到什么，讓我們微笑以對，整個世界也會對我們微笑。
