You were always there—a kind, supportive lady. 2. When I asked you a question, you would do your best to answer it patiently. When I felt confused (困惑的) because life seemed to be harder than I had imagined it could be, I would go to you. You would always calm (使平静) me down by sharing your love for books with me. 3. You would always help me find way out.
4. 我不知道如何感谢你,但是我会尽力。Thank you for letting me understand that books can be like medicine. Thank you for knowing that sometimes, people come to you not for books at all. You are not just a librarian. You are also a carer, a social worker, a teacher, among the many other roles you have served in your time.
5. How lucky I was to meet you! It’s you who completely changed my life. I am grateful (感激的) for all the help you have offered.

“You have no flying skills at all!” He said to the swans, “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that’s beyond you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”
One of the swans, a strong young male, accepted the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.

The swan pretended not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water,brother?

Problems with friends, parents, girlfriends, husbands, and children — the list goes on. 【1】
But good news is that all problems can be dealt with. Now read on to know how to solve your problems.

Don’t lose faith or hope. No matter what you lose in life, don’t lose faith or hope. 【4】 With faith, hope and confidence, you can rebuild everything that you lose.
