One day, a rich boy bought a magic mirror(魔镜). When he got home, he looked in the mirror. His face looked sad. He tried to smile and make funny faces. His face looked still sad. Then he did many happy things, but his face always looked sad.

I was in line waiting to pay. In line there were two people before me. A little boy was buying some rather strange clothes. He chatted with anyone who was interested in the clothes and soon we learnt that he was going to a kindergarten(幼儿园) party. He had done a great job of putting together interesting costumes.
I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change(零钱). It seemed that he had robbed his pig bank(猪形储蓄罐) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was short after counting all the money. The boy thought for a moment and said, “Please keep the shirt and I will come back with more money. “
It was clear that he had already used all the money he had and he was $ 8.00 short. The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that. “I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills(纸币) and we needed the cashier to get the change for us. Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change. It was amazing and touching(令人感动的) as all these strangers seemed to react(反应) with the same mind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didn't need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me, who had been the first to offer help, said, “Wait! I didn't even get a chance to give anything!”
I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this. “ The little boy smiled and thanked us. We wished him the best and he left. I was left with a good feeling. I had seen the love and goodness of others all around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said, “It sure feels good to give, doesn't it?” I smiled back and said, “Yes !”

   It's not easy to be an astronaut's son. Everybody expects(期望) you to be special or perfect. I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me. I mean he's so special and so good at everything he does. Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team. Well, to be honest, I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special-like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star. I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father's Day writing competition for the whole school "I hope we have a winner right here in my class."
   When I got home, I started to think about what to write. My father is an astronaut. No, I wouldn't start like that. That was the way others saw him. How did I see my father? Hmm. I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream. I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car. Yes, these were the things I was going to write. To me, he wasn't just a world-famous astronaut. He was my dad.
   My parents and l went to school Thursday night. There were so many people in the big hall! My dad looked at me, and I shrugged(耸肩).
   The third prize was announced（宣布） and it was not me. I was relieved(释然)and disappointed at the same time. The second prize was announced. It was me. I went up to the stage and read what I had written, "My father's son". When I finished，the people stood up and cheered. I saw my father blowing his nose. Tears were running down my mother's face. Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder. "Son, this is the proudest moment of my life.''
   It was the proudest moment of my life, too. Maybe I'll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my father's son.

    An elephant wants to make some friends. He see a monkey in a tree and asks, “Can you be my friend?”
“You are too big. You can't swing(摇荡) in the tree like me.”
    Then the elephant meets a panda. “Please be my friend.” he says.
“How can I ? Sorry, sir. You are too big.”
    The elephant is very sad(伤心).Then he goes home.
    The next day, he sees all the animals running. He doesn't know why. A rabbit tells him that there's a tiger near here. He is coming to eat the animals.
    The elephant goes to the tiger. “Mr. Tiger, don't eat the animals, please”
   “Go away(走开)！" says the tiger.
    The elephant is not happy and kicks(踢)the tiger. Then the tiger goes away.
    At last, all the animals want to make friends with the elephant.

Three friends, Tom, David and John, came to New York for their holiday. They stayed in a very large hotel. Their room was on the 45^th floor. In the evening, the three men went to the cinema and came back to the hotel very late.
“I'm very sorry,” said the man of the hotel, “but our lifts(电梯) do not work tonight. If you do't want to walk up to your room, I'll make beds for you in the hall(大厅). ”
“No, thanks,” said Tom, “we don't want to sleep in the hall. We will walk up to the 45^th floor. But I know how to make it easier. On the way to our room, I'll tell you some jokes. Then you, David, will sing us some songs. Then you, John, will tell us some stories, all right?”
So they began to walk upstairs. Tom told them many jokes. David sang them some songs. At last they came to the 34^th floor. They were tired and had a rest.
“Well,” said Tom. “Now it's your turn, John. After all these jokes and songs, tell us a long and interesting story with a sad ending. ”
“OK, I'll tell a sad story,” said John, “It's not long but very sad. I forgot to bring the key to our room with me. It's still in the hall. ”

It's 14:00. The house is quiet(安静的). "Tom?" Mom says. No one answers.

Mom comes to Tom's house. He is not in the bed. But his model plane is on the desk. "He is not in his room, and he is not in the yard(院子)," Mom thinks. Then Mom comes to his grandparents' room. Tom likes to play with Grandpa's tape player. But he is not there.

Mom looks for(寻找) him everywhere. But where is Tom? Mom is worried. She wants to call Dad. She comes to the living room to get the phone.

"What's that?" Mom sees something(某物) black under the sofa. Oh, it's Paul, Tom's dog. It loves sleeping(睡觉) there. But what is next to Paul? It's Tom!

Today, after 10 days of medical treatment, for the first time, I went out alone to meet a motherly lady who I had met during my stay in a program. She had been unwell recently and I lived alone. Her sons live in foreign countries.

After I called her and told about my plan to visit her, she started becoming excited and happily planning food at once. Nowadays, she has a lady cook coming by to help her but she does part of the work herself with her bandaged leg.

I reached her home alone after being guided a couple of times by her before. I carried little things (snacks, books etc.) for her. She had been waiting for some time when I arrived. We talked about different things from health to her life and mine, from past to future, from food to travel etc. During the discussion, her care for me became clear when she made warm suggestions or supported me.

During the last few months, she had struggled with health and housework. She had got over those difficulties and here she was telling me how all of us must face some problems. She had seen a few people facing worse problems in the hospital and mentioned about their cases and was grateful for her present condition which was manageable.

She wanted to gift me something—she kept thinking of a dress, watch, footwear etc. whatever was new and great in her home. I kept refusing but finally took the footwear out of politeness.

She loved the snacks I had brought and wanted to eat them with her tea. I was quite happy to see the child like interest.

While I was spending time with my motherly friend, the following thought kept coming back to me-probably this is why I have lived through the 10 days in this city. The time I spent with her seemed so much needed. I felt the deep peace it could bring to me and that brought such a big joy!
