When he was 23 years old, he climbed Mount Everest. In 2007, he set another world record by flying over Mount Everest in a powered paraglider(滑翔伞). His book,Facing the Frozen Ocean, got shortlisted for the UK's “Sports Book of the Year”. Since then he has written more than 15 books, including the No. 1 Bestseller: Mud, Sweat and Tears.
His name is Bear Grylls, and he was the host of Discovery Channel's famous TV show, Man vs. Wild. In the show, he was left in faraway areas in order to show survival(生存的) skills. Millions of viewers watched, breathless, as he climbed terribly dangerous mountains, performed amazing ice climbing, and ran through a forest fire.
Grylls continues to shine with both his amazing shows and charity(慈善) work. And he has set up his own company, Bear Grylls' Survival Academy, where everyone can learn survival skills from him and his highly?trained team.
Recently, Grylls founded Young Survivors—training courses for teenagers, including survival skills and adventure tasks designed to teach the basic rules of outdoor survival self?rescue. Those who complete the course are given a Young Survivors Award. Skills are taught including how to build and light a fire, how to tell directions in both day and night, putting up a protection building, bad weather survival and so on. The key focus of the course is getting young survivors back in touch with nature and away from technology.
In Grylls' own words: “The thing I love about Young Survivors Course is that it is designed to put young adults in just the kind of challenging, character?building and practical situations that help consider them as adults. So often, young adults can feel almost over?protected and are stopped from experiencing some of the best things in life—but the Young Survivors Award will challenge and empower them in an unbelievable fun environment. ”

When you meet Esther Okade, she seems really like a normal 10?year?old child. She loves dressing up as Elsa from a movie, playing with Barbie toys and going to the park or shopping. But what makes the British?Nigerian youngster stand out is the fact that she's also a university student.
Esther, from Walsall, a town of the UK, is one of the country's youngest college students. The talented 10?year?old girl entered the Open University in January this year and is already top of the class.
“It's so interesting,” she says. “It was super easy. My mom taught me in a nice way. ” She adds,“ I want to finish the course in two years. I want to have my own bank by the time I'm fifteen years old because I like numbers and I like people and banking is a great way to help people. ”
And when people think her parents have pushed her into starting university early, Esther disagrees. Esther actually wanted to start when she was seven. But her mom thought she was too young. After three years of begging, Mother Efe agreed to take the idea at last.

But after a few short weeks, Esther cried out in tears and she said, “I don't want to go back to that school. They don't even let me talk!”
“In the UK, you do not have to start school until you are five. Education is not compulsory(义务的)until that age so I thought OK, and we will be doing little things at home until then. Maybe by the time she's five, she will change her mind,” said Esther's mother.

Gu Fangzhou learned from the method of making pills in traditional Chinese medicine, and creatively integrated liquid(液体) vaccine into sugar pills.

In 2000, the World Health Organization confirmed that China became a polio?free country. From 1957 to 2000, Gu Fangzhou trudged(负重前行) for more than 40 years on the uneven road of polio eradication(消灭脊灰).
In January 2019, Gu Fangzhou left some words at the end of his life: “I have done one thing in my life, which is worth. I hope children grow up quickly to serve the motherland. ” In September 2019, Gu Fangzhou was awarded the national honorary title “The People's Scientist”.

We are living in a world full of competition. Our parents compete with others in their offices, our brothers and sisters compete with others in their colleges, and we compete with our classmates in schools. Most of us give up in face of competition and will never be successful. Why can't we do better than others? One important reason is that we have no self?confidence.
In fact,everyone is born equal. You can do what others do. Your classmates may be better than you in some ways, but you may be better than them in other subjects. So everyone has his or her advantages. Don't look at things from a single point of view. Try to discover your own advantages, and believe that you can do better than others in those ways.
