Looking forwardStarting out Watch the video and answer the questions.1 Who is mentioned in the video? What decisions did he make? Lu Xun. When Lu Xun was 15, traditional Chinese medicine failed to cure his fathers illness, so he made a decision to study Western medicine and become a doctor. But later, he made a decision to abandon his medical studies and take up writing. Because he realised that people in China were more in need of treatment for their minds than their bodies. The most important thing, in his mind, was to change peoples spirit, and the best way to achieve this was through literature.2 Why did he change his decision?Look at the picture and answer the questions.1 What can you see in the picture? We can see three different paths in the picture. One man is standing in front of the three paths. He may be thinking about which one he should follow.2 What are the differences between the three paths?The path on the left side of the picture is very straight and smooth.

On leaving high school, he joined a local Kansas newspaper as a trainee reporter. Then he went to become foreign correspondent for the Toronto Star and later Cuba to inform his writing. ” I decided that I would write one story about each thing that I knew about. Ambition for future Having set himself this goal, he wrote novels and short stories based on his personal experiences of the First World War, the Spanish Civil War, bullfighting and deep-sea fishing , amongst others.” His short novel The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953. He would later go on to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.Hemingways achievements Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle, DL (22 May 1859 7 July 1930) was a Scottish physician and writer, most noted for his stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, which are generally considered a major innovation in the field of crime fiction, and for the adventures of Professor Challenger. He was a prolific writer whose other works include science fiction stories, historical novels, plays and romances, poetry, and non-fiction.Arthur Conan Doyles real ambition Born in Scotland in 1819, Doyle had originally worked as a doctor.

So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. - Steve Jobs 1 What is your understanding of Steve Jobs words? You cannot make sense of your life by looking forward, because the future has not happened yet, and the meaning of future events is therefore uncertain. However, once future events have occurred, you may be able to see how they fit into the pattern of your life. Things which you did not expect to be important may turn out to be very important. You must face the future by believing that everything will work out in the end, and that your life will make sense and have meaning.Think and Share2 What will you do to prepare yourself for the future?He was born in the US in 1899.
