Donald was not very good at math. He couldn’t understand the teacher’s explanations. Even when the teacher explained something a second time, Donald Still couldn’t understand it.
“Never mind.” Donald told himse1f, “I’m quite good at other subjects. I’ll cheat in the math exam to get a good grade, then I won’t be in trouble. ”
“I’ll sit next to the boy who does best in math,” he thought, “and copy down this answers.”
The day of the exam came, and Donald sat next to Tommy, who was always at the top of the class in math. Donald carefully copied Tommy’s answers onto his own exam paper. At the end the exam, the teacher collected the papers and graded them in time.
Then she said, “well, boys and girls, I’ve decided to give a prize to the student who got the highest grade. It’s difficult for me to decide who I’ll give the prize to one of them.”
The students were surprised when they heard this. They said, “That’s not fair. They got the same grade.”

Tears filled my eyes when I stood in our room. I was washing new jeans and a shirt of my 16-year- old stepson(继子), Brett. He drank a lot last night. The clothing was already dirty.
I was very tired. The clothes were just one thing. He had already kicked a large hole in his bedroom wall. Many windows were broken because of his breaking in to steal money. Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During those four years I had dealt with Brett as patiently as possible, but inside I was feeling sad. Later, I cheered up again and continued parenting Brett. Still, Brett did not change his behavior.
When Brett was nearly 18, my husband and I decided to send Brett to a boarding school that had very good result with troubled teenagers.
At the graduation ceremony the graduates stood one by one to thank those who had helped them. Each graduate held a rose to give to the person who had meant the most to him or her.
Brett spoke lovingly to me, “You did so much. You were always there, no matter what
happened.You always showed me such love. And I want you to know that I love you for “it”.
Surprised, I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me hard. At that moment I realized the truth-although I had been angry in my heart toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions.
