"Daddy, how much money do you make each hour?"
"If you must know, I make $20 each hour."
"Oh," the little boy answered, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said,
"Daddy, could you lend me $10?"
The father was furious, "If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go
straight to your room and think about why you are so selfish!"
The little boy went to his room with no words and shut the door. After a short while, the father
calmed down, and started to think, "Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn"t really ask
for money very often." So he went to the little boy"s room.
"Sorry!Maybe I was too hard on you just now." said the man, "Here"s $10."
"Oh, thank you Daddy!" he said happily. Then the boy took out some coins. When the father found
that the boy already had money, he got angry again.
"Why do you want more money since you already have some?" the father shouted angrily.
"Because I didn"t have enough, but now I do." the little boy replied, "Daddy, I have $20 now. Can
I buy one hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."

"Hi! What can I do for you?" A young man greeted me with a sweet smile. He looked like not a
salesman but a student like me. I sensed a strange feeling -- as if I had met him before. He began patiently showing me each model. With his help, I decided to buy one computer with enough functions at a very low price. I enjoyed this shopping experience because of his smile. A few months later, something was wrong with my computer. I went back to the store to have it fixed. When I arrived there, what I saw was still his
smile. As soon as I told him my problem, he comforted me immediately and t ried his best to solve the
problem for me. I was quite grateful for his sweet smile and good service.
When I went back to school, his smile often appeared in my mind. I don"t know whether we"ll meet
each other again, but his sweet smile will stay there in my memory and deep in my heart. Smiling is the
most peaceful language in the daily life.

When I was seven years old, my family made me an ant farm. First, we put clean sand in a thin glass
box. Then we waited for the ants to arrive.
After the ants were in the glass farm, they started to make tunnels. I was very surprised that each one
knew exactly what to do. Each had its own job.
On the fifth day a tragedy (悲剧) happened. I put my face so close to the glass farm that I knocked it
over. All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants remained alive after the earthquake, one by one they
began to die. I was scared as I watched them give up building their tunnels to carry bodies to a corner
of the farm.
My mother said that the ants were dying of sadness. They simply could not understand why their tunnels
were gone.
Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about
the natural world, but it taught me much more.
Over the years, I came to realize the importance of teamwork. Working together, the ants were able to
make an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be admired for their hard work.
But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity (逆境) is a natural
part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, we cannot give up when we are sad. We have to
realize that if a tunnel is gone, we must build another.
Giving up, I say, is not a good choice.

C. They caught a lot of ants.
