A

Do you feel you would like your life to take a more positive

turn? Do you feel you want to change your current situation

in life and bring about positive changes?

Nearly 4 years ago I felt just like you，I knew there

were more to life and wanted to bring about a positive

change.I felt I couldn't carry on how things were.I saw a

healer who told me about a book she claimed would transform

the way I looked at life as it was and also the way I looked

at my future life.

This book changed my life from that.The book I speak about

is called TheSecret.It really does teach you a whole new way to look at life and

introduces you to a whole new way of thinking，which has been used by many successful

people，such as Martin Luther King Jr，Mother Teresa，Einstein.

TheSecret is really the secret to life.The basic teaching is how we make our

thoughts become things.If you feel you are looking forward to a positive turn in

your life，I would highly recommend reading this book.In case you aren't much of

a reader，TheSecret is also available on DVD and audio CD.

Yes，you do need to read it with an open mind then start to put the teachings

of TheSecret into practice on a small scale to start with，trust me when you start

to see the evidence and proof that this actually works，I promise you it will blow

your mind!

This book is a masterpiece (杰作); it transformed my life in many ways and enabled

me to live my dreams.I am very grateful that I learnt about TheSecret；in turn I

wanted to pass it on to you: I wish you an enlightening (有启发作用的) read，and

may all your hopes and dreams come true.

At the Liberty Science Center in New Jersey，kids can learn

about science in a fun and exciting atmosphere.

Science educator Lisa Silverman showed a group of students how surgery is performed.As she guided the children through the operation，she also

taught lessons about infections (感染)，the roles of the operating room staff and

the kinds of schooling one needs to be a surgeon.

Education experts call this “informal” or “free­choice” science learning，since it takes place outside of the school setting.The National Academies will

publish a report about the learning of science in such informal settings，including

such places as museums，zoos and aquariums (水族馆)．

The report is meant to address the lack of scientific education among

Americans.Many are afraid there will be a shortfall in homegrown engineers and

scientists to keep the nation competitive，and a general workforce ill­equipped to

function in an increasingly high­tech world.Experts believe science museums can play

a big role in teaching and promoting science to both children and adults.

The Liberty Science Center expects about 850，000 guests this year.Visitors can

walk along a high steel beam in the skyscraper exhibit or practice laboratory

experiments.Kids and their parents are welcome to ask as many questions as they

like.For many students，the experience is as important as any technical or book

lesson，because the information can be related to their families，friends and，most of all，themselves.

“The value of science museums is that they allow families to learn together，and even about each other，”says Oregon State University researcher John Falk.“Parents may discover that a daughter is interested in engineering after a trip
