美文晨读
The air we breathe is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet without it we could not survive more than a few minutes. For the most part, the same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. Some people use the air to sustain them while they sit around and feel sorry for themselves. Others breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make a magnificent life for themselves.
空气到处都有，我们是如此容易得到它，以至我们常将其易得性视为理所当然。

可一旦失去它，我们只能活几分钟。

基本上，谁都能呼吸到空气，谁都需要空气。

有的人呼吸空气只为碌碌无为地生活着，或是在懊悔中度过余生。

有的人呼吸空气并利用它提供的能量使自己的生活绚丽多彩。
