Mr Smith had a week's holiday, so he said, "I'm going to see the sea by train." He put on his best clothes, took a small bag, went to the railway station and got onto the train. He wore a beautiful hat, and he often put his head out of the window during the trip and looked at the beautiful scenery. But suddenly the wind pulled his hat off.

    Mr Smith took his old bag and threw it out of the window quickly too. The others in the train laughed. "Is your bag going to bring back your beautiful hat?" they asked.

    "N0," Mr Smith answered, "but there is no name or address in my hat, and there's a name and an address on the bag. If someone finds both of them, he or she will send me the bag and the hat.''

    It is a true story. Once upon a time, one of Alex's horses was stolen by his neighbor. Alex went to the neighbor's home with a policeman to get his horse back. But the neighbor refused to give the horse back. He said that it was his horse.

    Suddenly Alex had a good idea. He put both of his hands over the eyes of the horse and said to the neighbor, “If this is your horse, then you must tell us in which eye the horse is blind.”

    “In the left,” said the neighbor. Alex took his hand from the left eye of the horse and showed the policeman that the horse was not blind in the left eye.

    “Oh, I have made a mistake,” said the neighbor. “He is blind in the right eye.” Alex then showed that the horse was not blind in the right eye, either.

“I have made another mistake,” said the neighbor.

    “Yes,” said the policeman, “and you have also proved that the horse isn't yours. You must give it back to Mr. Alex. ”

    Emilyand Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden. Theycould climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watchthe birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food outto attract（吸引）more birds.

    Everythingwas fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise ona window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neckseemed to be broken.

    "Itmust have flown into the window," Alex said when his sister Emily called himto have a look. "Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit thewindow. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck(粘贴) on the window."

    "Poorthing!" Emily said.

    Duringthe next month, another five birds died in the same way. "Why would they flyto the windows?" they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When thebirds were flying, they couldn't see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees becausethey saw trees reflected by the window.

    "Somethinghas to be done to save the birds." the parents decided.

    At first,he family tried keeping curtains（窗帘）across the windows, but thismade the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shapeof ahawk. They made six hawks—one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They lookedpretty and did not keep out much light. When the birds saw the hawks, they wouldfly away.

    Afterthat, there were no more dead birds. The family were much happier.

    In 2009 a group of parents in Lymington started sharing worries about their children's money-management skills. Pocket money was now stored in a building society rather than a piggy bank (储蓄罐); household shopping was done online; the children rarely saw their parents handling cash. They were spending online, too. Money had become intangible. How, then, were children to learn its value?

The answer they came up with was GoHenry, an app now available in America as well as Britain. It is designed to help young people learn good spending habits through real-world money activities. Parents sign up with their own bank accounts and pay a monthly fee of £2.99 or $3.99 for each child aged six or over. Adults and children download separate versions. Parents can schedule pocket money and set chores. When those are marked as done, the child is paid the agreed amount. Parents can see what the child has bought and where. And they can choose where the card can be used: in shops, online or at ATMs.

Children get cards printed with their name. They can put money in savings pots, view their spending and balances, and set savings targets. "They could decide to save ten dollars for a friend's birthday in four weeks' time, or set a goal at 12 to have $2,000 to buy a car at age 18," says Dean Brauer, one of GoHenry's founders. "The app tells them how much to save each week to meet their goal."

A big benefit of such apps is that they inspire family conversations about money. According to the latest research, more than half of British parents find the subject hard to discuss with their children. And yet most agree that children's attitudes to money are formed in their early years.

Some GoHenry customers are wealthy parents who worry that their children will grow up with little knowledge of money. Others have slim incomes but regard the app as a preparation for their child's future. Some say that they have been in debt and want their children to avoid that mistake when they grow up; others that the app is cost-effective because their children learn to plan spending. Even though young people no longer touch and hold money, they can still be taught to handle it well.

"Boys and girls，are you ready for the test？" Our teacher Ms. Kelly asks. 

"Yeah!" We answer happily. A test is 1 to us. 

I answer quickly until I read the last one， "Do you know the 2 in our school？What is her first name？" 

Of course，I 3 the cleaner. She is thin and wears an orange jacket every day. We always see her clean the restroom （厕所），4 how can I know her name？I 5 talk to her. 

After class，I give my paper to Ms. Kelly，leaving the 6 question empty （空白的）. I feel sad because I never （从不） say hi to her. 

On my way to the restroom，I see her 7 jacket. I run to her. 

"Hello!Hmm. . . Thank you for giving 8 a clean school. " 

In our life，we meet many people. All are 9 and all you do is to smile and say hello. I can never forget this 10 . I will never forget her name-Dora.
