  9. Summary:A person with a good heart, you have to run a lot of risks in wartime. As shown in the video, Forrest Gump was too worried about the safety of his best friend Bubba to think much of his own safety. On his way back to the fighting zone to find Bubba, however, there was always someone else lying there in danger. He didn’t hesitate to carry the wounded out of there until in the end he saved more than four fighters from dying in helplessness, during which he was wounded in the hip. When he finally found his best friend Bubba, it was too late to save his life. His heart was filled with regret. In our peacetime, having a good heart also involves much devotion to others. With a good heart, you don’t remain indifferent at the sight of others’ sufferings. You may offer all kinds of help to those in trouble or in danger. With a good heart, you can not tolerate the spread of bad social practices. You have the courage to do whatever is right. With a good heart, you give more thought to others than to yourself and find excellence in others. And still with a good heart, you give more to others than take from others. In sum, having a good heart not only adds joy to others’ life but also brings virtue to society. >>>more 返回 Path of thinking: • What does “having a good heart” mean in wartime? • What does “having a good heart” involve in peacetime?

  10. As far as our campus life is concerned, we should give more weight to the points as follows: • We must better ourselves in our subjects. The more knowledge we have now about our field, the fuller play we will give to our good hearts in the future society. • We must make friends with good students or with those who have much in common with us. Our contact with such peers will certainly help us to get a better sense of what a good person is. • We must refine our taste for life by taking part in healthy activities, such as extensive reading, body building, and online surfing. >>>more 返回 Path of thinking: Summary: Among the factors contributing to the cultivation of a good heart, three carry most weight. One is the family environment in which you grow up. If your parents set good examples, you usually follow their lead, as an old saying goes, “Like father, like son”. Another factor is the company you keep. It is widely believed that frequent contact with your friends tends to leave a strong mark on your growth. And above all, your goodness depends largely on your own refinement. Good reading, for example, gives you a better insight into what kind of a person you should be. • What factors contribute to a good heart? • What should we do during college days?
