请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

Goals are the guides all through our life. We all have goals that we are moving towards and making a great effort to achieve. This is a good thing. Or can it be bad? How many of us never reach our goals and yet we have tried so hard and really thought about nothing else? I believe the mistake most of us make is that we do not focus on our present situation.

Let me explain. Most of us see our present situation as a stepping stone that we use simply as a means of reaching our final destination. We dont take time to truly appreciate where we are today and all the great things we already have in our lives. We should focus our attention on the journey and not on the destination, or we will miss the beautiful scenery along the way.

Lets use our job as an example. Now most of us want a promotion.  We have plans to become the manager or general manager in our companies. Unfortunately, most of us will never reach the goal, but will watch others achieve our goal instead.

What we should be doing is focusing on the job we are currently in now. Forget where we want to get to and just focus on the present. You see, what we can control is our performance in our current job. We can decide to be the best we possibly can in our current job. Now this may mean further education to have the skills we currently do not have. It may mean working harder to produce better results than our colleagues. It could simply be a change of attitude, such as stopping complaining and becoming a more devoted and supportive employee. By doing our current job to the best of our abilities, we in fact give ourselves the best chance of promotion.

So the best thing for all of us to do to achieve our goals is to just focus on what we have and where we are now. Do the best and be the best we possibly can in our current situations, and we will give ourselves the very best chance of reaching our goals in the future. We have heard the old sayings and they are true: Rome wasnt built in a day., Patience is a virtue, and so on.

Have patience, have appreciation of what we already have, and take time to help ourselves be the very best we can. Do these things and we will all reach our goals, but more importantly, we will enjoy our life every day.

Dear Editor,

Recent years have witnessed the fact that campuses of famous universities have become one of the popular tourist destinations, which has around great public concern. I'm writing to tell you about the discussion weve had about whether the university campus should be open to tourists.

Some students argue that tourists should be denied access to university campuses. They think the tourists visiting the campuses will make it harder for students to focus on their studies. Worse still, with so many tourists entering the campuses, some safety problems will probably arise.

    However, others hold opposite opinions. They insist that this can bring students and society closer together and is good for cultural exchange between people. Besides, some universities have become a symbol of social civilization and people should be allowed a chance to experience the atmosphere.  .

    In my opinion, several factors should be considered before opening university campuses to tourists. First, campuses should only be open to tourists on weekends or during holidays. Second, the number of tourists should be strictly limited to guarantee safety.  (150 words)

Best regards,
