     Doctor Seuss was born in 1904. By the middle 1950s,he had become one of the best-loved and

 most successful children's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. 

They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.   

      In 1954, Life magazine published (刊登) a report about school children who could not read. The 

report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children

 and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending 

sound, like fish and wish. He did not receive training in art. Yet, he drew the pictures for most of his 

books.    

     In 1957, Dr.Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat. He used less than 230 words to write the book and even a six-year-old should be able to read it.lt was a fun story and easy to read. Children loved it. Their 

parents loved it, too. Today it is still one of the stories they like best. The success of The Cat in the Hat 

made him want to write more books for children .In 1960,hc wrote a book using less than fifty words. 

The book is called Green Eggs and Ham.    In 1984,Doctor Seuss won a Pulitzer Prize (普利策奖). 

He was honored for the education and enjoyment his books provided American children and their parents.    He died at the age of 87,but his influence remains. Millions of his books have been sold world-wide. 

People say his books helped change the way American children learned to read. Yet ,his books are

 loved by people of all ages. Doctor Seuss once said," I do not write for children. I write for people. "

0与1

  0与l相差极小,但却很不相同。1和1万相乘等于1万;0和1相乘却仍然是0。如果“1”意味着实干,“0”象征着空谈,那么我们在实干迈出哪怕一小步,像鲁迅说的“总比说空话而一点不做好。”1万个0抵不上1个1,1万次空谈不如1次实干。从0到1,意味着从无到有,意味着创新,这正是“1”的可贵之处。马克思说:“在科学的门口,正像在地狱的门口一样……在这里一切疑惧都须抛弃,一切怯懦的念头在这里都须化除。”没有无畏的勇气和坚定的信念,我们是跨不进科学大站一步的。

  刚刚迈出第一步,幼稚和浅薄是难免的。有的青年往往有“一口吃成胖子”的思想,稍遇挫折就灰心泄气。中国有句俗话说:“始生有物,其形必丑。”罗伯特?富尔顿在1807年制作的第一艘气船,时速只有5英里,比人走路快不了多少。斯蒂芬森1814年造出的第一辆“布留求号机车”吨位只有30吨,时速只有4英里,被人讥笑还没有马车快。但是,没有它们,又怎么会有今天的快速火车和宇宙飞船呢?所以,幼稚和浅薄并不要紧,关键在于不断生长,不断奋进。

  然而,0又往往表示起点。它既可走向正一,也可走向负一。如果我们从0走向负一,向一错误的方向迈出一步,就有可能滑向罪恶的深渊。俗话说:“从善如登,从恶如崩。”有的严重违法的经济犯罪分子,不就是从收取一瓶香油、一包虾皮的贿赂开始的么?青少年时代是人生起步的时候,站在0的起点上,向哪个方向迈出第一步,的确是值得“慎思”的问题。
