Walter owns three Italian restaurants which are running very well in Rhode Island in America. Every day his restaurants welcome crowds of customers(顧客) all over the world. He studied to be a cook, but he sees now that his success is the result of a lifetime education. When he opened his first restaurant, all of a sudden his schooling knowledge, the history of his family and the ethice (道德準則 )of his father came into play.

Waiter's learning never stops. He says. "The food business is one where you need to stay on top. Cooks should be trained. You have to keep on studying or you will be left behind.

That is he would like to be remembered as person who is innovative（創(chuàng)新的) ,who believes in the Italian cooking culture(文化) in America.

    According to the recent survey, only forty percent of children in our school feel happy. Why? Do you know what "happiness'means? A lot of money? No homework every day? High marks or anything else?

In face, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it; When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you;when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health ; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you;when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. All these can't be bought with money. It's a feeling of your heart. When you come across difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself.

  As the saying goes,life is like a revolving(旋轉的) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
