Do you believe the existence of high intelligent life on other planets? Can you imagine that one day a Martian dropped on your back yard garden?

Recently, I have read a book called "The war of the worlds". It described such a story: In the 1890s, Martians were not satisfied with the environment on Mars, so they landed on earth, each in a cylinder-shaped spacecraft, one after another, to attack us! They controlled two weapons, namely heat ray and poison gas. Our gun proved useless in front of their attack. Many people lost their lives and our home was trampled. Even the capital of the most powerful country at that time——London, was occupied by them in a short time. When the human race is in danger of extinct, bacteria infected Martians and saved us.

You may think that it’s a tale of tub. I partly agree with you, because until now there hasn’t been any clear evidence showing the existence of Martians. But can you be sure that we are alone in the universe? Moreover, the attack of Martians is just to symbolize the disasters we have suffered or may suffer in the future.

Have you ever experienced the feeling of terror? Have you ever run away from something dangerous as if you may lose you life when you are a small, helpless child?

Facing the attack of Martians, humans have showed many disadvantages: lazy, stupid, selfish and so on. All above are caused by one thing: lack of self-knowledge. We consider ourselves always right. We are full of pretension. When the first Martian landed, the humans didn’t believe it’s powerful until it used the heat ray to burn them to death. Even after that, the Londoners are still not aware of danger. How similar it is to the Opium War! When the British battle ships fired our harbors, the Qing dynasty was not waked up and did nothing else but gives reparations. 2 years later, British launched the 2^nd Opium War and found that our weapons are still swords and sticks, too primitive. The seclusion policy made us blind, we didn’t know the England had finished the industrial revolution and European countries were never weak any more.

We always regard ourselves as the most intelligent creature in the world. But in this novel we are to Martian what small insects are to us. When the European intruders attacked the America, how did the Indians consider them? It’s more or less similar to the Martians. Look back to the human history, you will find these words: 1^st and 2^nd World War, Normandy landing, Stalin grad defending war, Caesar, Hitler……before the other race attack us, we are actually kill ourselves. Most people were dead because of us, not earthquake, not illness, not volcanic eruption. How silly we are! We need to broaden our horizons, improve our insight and regard others friendly.

Another thing the novel warns us is to keep the perfect balance of nature. Martians have no immune system because there is no bacterium on Mars. When a living damaged another too much, it will be destroyed. That is the rule of nature. We have polluted the environment too much. More people buy cars, more country want nuclear weapons, and more high-tech junks. If we continue doing those, I really doubt weather we can exist after a century.

“To know oneself is true progress”, Confucius said. The fundamental knowledge is self-knowledge. Lose that, you lose everything.

What is running about? Burden? Torture? Once I think so, but now I should say: If your answer is like that, my friend, you know nothing about running.

When a human come to this world, it learns to creep, soon it can walk, then run. Is that all we can do? We are humans, different from common animals. we want to climb higher, achieve more. Running is not just physical, but emotional as well. When you are depressed, spiritless, running is an easy and effective way to cheer you up. You take on you shoes, walk to the street, that’s all you need. Then you begin, with every pace on the ground, the road lights, trees, people, everything are outstripped, left far behind. Hormone is secreted to make you high-spirited. You will soon enjoy it.

And one thing you should remember: You don’t have to be very fast, running is for yourself, not others. Everyone ,either you run fast or slow, either you are in perfect shape or too fat, running belongs to you, a human. That is the reason why I carried my running on till today, though I have never been the fastest. When I persuade my classmates to build up a habit of running, many of them said to me: I am too weak, I am too fat, I can’t run fast, I’m not suitable and so on. When the teacher say the final test is 3000 meters running, They fear of it. It is not they can’t run, but they don’t want to. For a person who always run,3000m is not a long distance. The less you run, the more you fear to run.

Running is a kind of sport, we need strength, perseverance, persistence. Any others? In the track, the runners compete following a certain rule, so running is a game. The spectators cheer us on, they want us to win, we too; In relay races our teammates want us to win, we too. so running is a teamwork. We taste the happiness of winners, the sorrow of losers, so running is an experience. During running match, we control ourselves to run at a certain speed, not to cheer too early, not to give up woo early, you think out tactics on how you can win, so running is an emotional lesson…… Running means many things.

Running can make you clever. Running can make you strong. Running can make you healthy. Try looking at running from a different angle, join us, my friend.

终于过十一了！北航跟我想象的差不多，够惨的。经济管理学院似乎不受重视，上课是300人的大课，十分呆板，死气沉沉。绿园里有“一潭死水”，里面的水是黑的，中间有荷花，晚上去能吓死你。小军训是用早晚的时间，时间很紧，早饭吃不上，好在训完了。我的思维也训得一团糟，不信你看看这篇的思路。金融学学的太少了，没有物理化学，只能自己加课。那里有一个长跑高手，能以1分45秒/400米的速度无限跑，我跟了五六圈就跟不上了。听说偷车现象非常严重，11把锁都能开，难怪那里全是破车。我们还学管理学，英语是一个澳大利亚的外教，口音真是……
