Step 1 Leadin---Small talk

What are someimportant life choices?

Importancechoices: university study, jobs and marriage partners. Because they candetermine our future. But I think the most important choices are moralchoices---how we live our lives and treat others, which may not change ourlife, but they will determine how we are remembered by others, the degree ofrespect and love we get, even have the clean consciences and live withourselves.

Step 2. Analyze the title

Mother of TenThousand Babies

The Chinese meaning: 萬嬰之母

From the title and the picture,we can know that the article might be about a brief introduction of a femaledoctor, Lin Qiaozhi, who saved a lot of babies by using her super medical tech.It is a biography, not a narrative.

(Biography is a kind of articlewhich tells the whole life, contributions and spirit and thoughts about aclassical character. Biography usually uses the third person to tell the story,but sometimes uses the first person, which is called autobiography. Biographyalways introduces the time and place of birth and death, the family background,childhood, great life changes, the characters and virtues, even presents theirown or others’ words to support.)
