I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat."
"Is the man of the house home?" they asked. "No", she replied, "He"s out.""Then we cannot come in",
they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened."Go to tell them I am
home and invite them in!" The woman went out and invited the men in."We do not go into a house together,"
they replied."Why is that?" she asked.
One of the old men explained that their names were Wealth (财富), Success and Love. Then he added,
"Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home."
The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed and he suggested
inviting Wealth to fill their home with wealth. And his wife wanted to invite Success; but their daughter-in-law
suggested they should invite Love so that their home would be filled with love. At last the husband said to his
wife."Go out and invite Love to be our guest."
The woman went out and asked the three old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our
guest." Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success:"I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?" The old men

| For a small town, Manhattan, Kansas has some big surprises. And one of them is the Holiday Inn Hotel, with rooms built around a swimming pool and a friendly family atmosphere. The Holiday Inn is where Manhattan people often go for a special party, or a night out. A lot of them choose to eat in the brightly lighted restaurant near the pool. And many of them will be served by Ellen Logan, who has worked as a waitress here for more than two years. Ellen, like most of the waitresses, is also a student. She comes from Nebraska, but she"s planning one day to be a veterinary surgeon, and to care for small animals. But in order to support herself at college, she works twenty hours a week at the Holiday Inn. Ellen soon learned what every waitress finds out. Your best friend has a good pair of shoes. She paid forty-five dollars for hers, much more than she would usually spend. She"s discovered something else too. You don"t have to know much about food to be a good waitress, but you do have to know a lot about people. "A lot of business people always stay here when they come to Manhattan," she explains."They like you to recognize them and remember their favorite dishes. But some couples come for a night out together. They just want to be left alone. Then there are people who can"t make up their minds. They look down the menu and say"What do you suggest?"So I ask them how hungry they are. If they say, "Not very", I suggest the salad bar, with soup, salad, bread, and a fruit plate. But if they say they"re very hungry, I suggest a Kansas Strip Steak, with potatoes or rice. You get salad and bread as well. It"s very nice. Real good value." Ellen may get tired feet sometimes, but at least she"s learning too much about people. She"ll probably make a good animal doctor, but if she find she doesn"t like it after all, she can always become a psychiatrist (心理 医生) instead. | ||||||||||||||

| That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With the first performance only a week 1 , I was still learning my lines. I was having 2 dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about 3 up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me. As I walked down 4 streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep 5 and to keep away from any possible 6 . Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets. About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I 7 quickly, half 8 to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 9 , so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize 10 the noise had been. It had been my 11 falling to the sidewalk. Suddenly I wasn"t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to 12 I"d heard the noise. Although I 13 the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was 14 to be found. I was about to give up the search when I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the 15 ,"Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was 16 . How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes."Is this what you"re looking for?" he asked, 17 up a small square shape. It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn"t get much 18 that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some 19 of city life. I realized that the city couldn"t be a bad place as long as people were 20 to help each other. | ||||||||||||||
