    Yes , I think it's absolutely right. As the point of my view, life is full of uncertainty. And what we can do is to accept them even to enjoy them. Things that are not certain will go in different directions and what's their future will be totally depend on yourself. If we take an optimistic view ,and actively change the present uncertainty,I think everything will turn to an optimistic direction. So it's an important thing to hug and enjoy the thing that is unexpected, unwanted and uncertain. All in all ,eyerything  going just depend on your view and action. So ,be optimistic to your life and be happy to your life gift.   :)

    The things above are just a symbol of suffering,announcing the impending multilation of life.What the lecturer wants to emphasize is  the importance of optimism and the determinatiion not to give up,not just a glorification of suffering.And she hopes to warn us to cherish what we have now by opening her own sacrs.

    It's hard for me to answer this question.In my opinion,it depends on when you receive this unexpected gift.If you are young,you still have many chance to settle the unexpected problem.But if you come to old,that might be a big challenge which might make you lose your heart.

    I thinik I would probabaly have to say no.In some extent,maybe it will be right.For example,if you come across your favourite idol,I do bet it is a thrilling and exciting gift that is unexpected.But mostly,the unexpected thing isn't so awesome.Just like the woman in the short video,she got brain tumor,and she reckoned it was a gift,but what if she didn't survive?Actually,what matters most is that how you face the unexpected,unwanted and uncertain things,rather than consider that it is or not a gift.

    Yes, I think this is absolutely correct.Life is ups and downs rather than smooth sailing. There will always be unexpected things.Only when we face the accident with an optimistic attitude ,can we adapt and grow.

    It seems to me that there are two sides to consider.There will be unexpected things in a person's life, surprises and disasters, holidays or birthdays, blessings from relatives and friends, unexpected gifts and blessings, unexpected promotions after struggling for a long time, or good luck to win lottery tickets. These may be your unknown gifts, but will your life be like this sail? Is it smooth? No, I want to say that it's definitely not. You have far more setbacks than you think. You will encounter physical destruction or mental injury, and you will be confused and disappointed.I don't think this is necessarily a gift for everyone. Only those who have experienced life are full of expectations for life and yearning for the unknown, so they feel meaningful to life for any unknown surprise or disaster, and they recognize that it is a gift.Actually,I think it depends on the person,So let's believe that there will be a rainbow after the storm and face life calmly.

    I think so.Many unexpected things will surprise us and we may gain a lot from them.The sun is new everyday,and we can't foresee what will happen in the future.Taking all the uncertain things as a gift will make us look forward to tomorrow and help us grow.

    I totally agree with that.We all met something that's unexpected,unwanted and uncertain.You may feel terrible at first. But after you survive all,you'll make yourself better.There is always something new to learn as you struggle to cope with difficulties.In other words,these things never fade away no matter how you think.Why not treating them like gifts and going on smoothly to enjoy a positive life?

    I think it's right. Something that is unexpected maybe a good choice to find ourselves and to stimulate our potential.We can be a better person by this way. Besides, uncertain means there are more possibilities.Unexpect things means that we can get unexpect results which is great.

    I don't think so.In my opinion,suffering never be praised,we should really praise is brave strong to overcome the difficulties of people.Suffering itself is not worthy of praise,praise suffering will only let us into a misunderstanding.We need to thank that don't give up their own.

    I honestly have no idea.The things are diverse.When the period is different,the opinion of something is changed.I can define something exactly.It just says that it is possible.

    Something that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain just mean that the future is imperceptible.And that's why someting like these can be the gifts or the punishments.What these things mean to you, not only depend on how difficult them are,but also how you react on them.The only thing we can do is to face with them with confidence and hardworking,and that's the best way to solve the problem.

  • 陈梦炳 2022-09-26

    I am totally opposed to this view. Nothing is absolute. The gift itself is people's own definition. In my opinion, one of the important components of a gift is the gift giver's gratitude to the recipient. There is a saying that goose feather can be sent thousands of miles away. Another component is whether the recipient really needs it. Although both are the best gifts, one of them is also a good gift.

    As far as I'm concerned,it absolutely won't be a gift.A gift means that it will make us happy,But one unexpected thing mostly destroys our plans and affect our arrangements ,even makes us feel displeased.Admittedly,not everything unexpected is bad,but we don't like things that can't be controlled. We prefer things that are planned rather than things that happen out of the plan.An unexpected,uncertain and unwanted thing is never a good gift.

    In my opinion, unexpected events are the gifts that life rewards us. First of all, unexpected events can train our coping and adaptation ability, and we can gradually enhance the ability through different kinds of emergency. Besides when we are caught unprepared again, we can learn how to deal with emergencies quickly based on the most suitable means and exercise a stronger heart. Secondly, unexpected events are the regulator of the pace of our life, which can help us to speed up the pace and focus on things when we are too relaxed. It can also be a respite from busy work and life, such as a sudden trip between friends.

    Yes,I can't agree any more.In my opinion,"gift"might not just a box warpped in paper.Everything makes you grow up or let you learn something can call a special gift.If you have experienced something unexpect,you must know something more clearly.In another words,it makes you grow.That is the best gift you have ever reveived.

    I think those things that are unpredictable are the gifts that life gives us. It may be a difficulty for us to grow in the process of grinding and testing, or it may be a surprise that happens to be encountered.There is a lot of uncertainty in the world, and we should go through various unexpected situations during this journey and finally find the habitat of our own soul.

  • 潘静宜 2022-09-26

    I think something unexpected can be gifts.If it is a good thing,then it is a gift surely.And if it is a bad thing,like a difficulty or a cancer,it does not mean hopelessness.Because,through the difficulty,we can develop our ability of solving problems.And only after we fall ill,we can realize the improtance of keeping healthy.They all will make our life better,so they are all gifts for us.

  • 蒋子璇 2022-09-26

    This is not my point of view.Frist of all,unexpect means something we don't want.So it is obvious that we are not seeming it as a gift,but thinking of it as a misfortune.But there is no denying that suffering brings fortitude and warmth,which make us a firm-faith person.However,if we haven't survived this "gift",it will turns into a tragedy.

    I don't think so. Because we don't know whether this unknown thing is a surprise or a shock. A gift should be something helpful to our present or future life, or something that can make us feel satisfied. Moreover, I think all the so-called "gifts" are rewards for our efforts in the past. When an unknown thing appears in front of you, you will know whether your efforts are worth paying back as long as you recall what you have done before.

    In my opinion,I toally agree with that.Life is a fantastical travel.You are a traveller and you don't know whether tomorrow and accident which come first.Gift is a form to give us new experience.So if one thing bring happiness to you.Without problem,it's a gift. However it's  some gifts which it will bring you pain or regret.I want to press that there are two sides to every coin. While you feel pain which the thing bring to you,please think back the new experience whict the thing give you.It enrich your life and improve your ability to patience.So I think if a thing could enrich your life's travel, it must be a gift.

    I totally agree with that.Because In my opinion, when a person has cancer, his heart is very frightened and helpless, so I think that when the author treats tumor as a gift, it can give the patient a psychological comfort. It can make them less afraid and lose the hope of life. So I think it is a psychological hint that the author treats cancer as a gift. It can inspire people to have hope for their future. And it is well known that many cancer patients die because their mentality has gone wrong, and they have lost their desire to survive.But taking cancer as a gift can help patients keep a good attitude, actively cooperate with treatment, and increase the possibility of survival. So I quite agree with her.

    I don't think so.I think this question should be considered from the advantage and disadvantage it can bring to us.Everyone has differentn capability of adpating to the unexpected things that he met.If this unexpected thing you can endure,it will be a opportunity for you to practice yourself.Through this things ,you can get a strongger will , maybe have a new lifestyle and so on.At this situation,ypu can get more advantages than disadvantages.But,if you can't endure it,it will not be a gift.What it can bring to us is endless pain.With this feeling,we can't do anything well.Also,we will get increasingly despondent,and we can't learn something from it.

    I agree that unexperted,unwanted and uncertain is a gift. We might not have tought how life will be and life isn't what you think to be,it's full of uncertainty. When we suffer from these, don't blame it because you can't change it already, just accept it and you will find something meanful in it. Why isn't it a gift?

    In my own opinion, I think whether something that unexpected,unwanted and uncertain is a gift or not may depend on many facters. Everyone is specious ,they live in diffierent areas so maybe they have diffierent experiences. It will form diffierent characters and ideas wben meeting probiems. However, I also think it needs to be acquired. Even if it is a bad thing, through our efforts and talent, when we understand the truth and find the way, we can make it our own gift.  Therefore,  I think it can improve our ability and attitude to face unexpected events, so that we can better face the future life.

    How is that not a gift in my opinion?Wecan't choose what we get subjectively. All we get is a will from others.In my opinion,the definition of a gift is that it is carefully prapared by others,which may not be my will,but it is the best gift!

    It seems to me that there are two sides to consider.On the one hand,I think some unexpected,enwanted and  uncertain things such as difficulties and challenges are gifts to us.Beacause it can improve the ability about how we solve the things in a ture way.On the other hand,these unexpected things such as diseases,they can bring pain not only to us but also our family and friends .So it is not a gift for us .This is my opinions.

    In my point of view,it is not a gift.In the TED from 2.1,the lecturer thought the unexpected thing—a brain tumor was a gift,but for many people who cannot pay for the cost for treatment it is an absolutely disaster that may ruin the whole family.So I prefer to think that the real GIFT is the qualities of humans like being tough and brave rather than the unexpected things.Of course,you may get something through the things,and I would like to call it BONUS you deserve.
