Real riches cnsist f well­develped and hearty capacities (能力) t enjy life.Mst peple are already swamped(淹没) with things.They eat，wear，g and talk t much.They_live_in_t_big_a_huse_with_t_many_rms，yet_their_huse_f_life_is_a_hut.
Yur huse f life ught t be a mansin (豪宅)，a ryal palace.Every new taste，every additinal interest，every fresh enthusiasm adds a rm.Here are several rms yur huse f life shuld have.
Art shuld be a desire fr yu t develp simply because the wrld is full f beautiful things.If yu nly understd hw t enjy them and feed yur spirit n them，they wuld make yu as happy as t find plenty f ham and eggs when yu're hungry.
Literature，classic literature，is a beautiful，richly furnished rm where yu might find many an hur f rest and refreshment.T gain that lve wuld g tward making yu a rich persn，fr a rich persn is nt smene wh has a library but wh likes a library.
Music like Mzart's and Bach's shuldn't be absent.Real riches are f the spirit.And when yu've brught that spirit up t where classical music feeds it and makes yu a little drunk，yu have increased yur thrills and bettered them.And life is a matter f thrills.
Sprts，withut which yu remain pr，mean a lt in life.N matter wh yu are，yu wuld be mre human，and yur huse f life wuld be better supprted against the bad days，if yu culd，and did，play a bit.
Whatever rms yu might add t yur huse f life，the secret f enjying life is t keep adding.

Many years ag，a French naturalist，Cmte de Buffn，wrte sme bks abut natural histry.The bks were a great success even thugh sme critics (批评家) did nt like them.Sme critics said，“Cmte de Buffn is mre f a pet than a scientist.”
Thmas Jeffersn did nt like what Cmte de Buffn had said abut the natural wnders f the New Wrld.It seemed t Jeffersn that Cmte de Buffn had spken f natural wnders in America as if they were unimprtant.
This trubled Thmas Jeffersn.He was als a naturalist，as well as a farmer，an inventr，a histrian，a writer and a plitician.He had seen the natural wnders f Eurpe.T him，they were n mre imprtant than thse f the New Wrld.
In 1788，Thmas Jeffersn wrte abut his hme state，Virginia.While writing，he thught f its natural beauty and then f the wrds f Cmte de Buffn.At that mment，Jeffersn created a new wrd—belittle.He said，“Cmte de Buffn believes that nature belittles her prductins n this side f the Atlantic.”
Nah Webster，the American wrd expert，liked this wrd.He put it in the English language dictinary in 1806，“Belittle－t make small，unimprtant.”
Americans had already accepted Jeffersn's wrd and started t use it.In 1797，the Independent Chrnicle used the wrd t describe a plitician the paper supprted.“He is an hnrable man，”the paper wrte，“s let the ppsitin try t belittle him as much as they please.”
In 1872，a famus American wrd expert decided that the time had cme t kill this wrd.He said，“Belittle has n chance f becming English.And as mre critical writers f America，like thse f Britain，feel n need f it，the sner it is frgtten，the better.”
This expert failed t kill the wrd.Tday，belittle is used where the English language is spken.
