Joe Campbell is 7 years old. He has three sisters and no brothers. His father often takes him to play sports on Saturdays and Sundays. But Joe doesn't t think that is interesting.

All of Joe's sisters take ballet classes on the weekend. And Joe is also interested in dancing. He wants to go to learn ballet with his sisters. But his father thinks he is joking(开玩笑). "You know, you should go to join a football or basketball club," his father says. This makes Joe sad because his father doesn't allow him to do what he wants to.

When Joe's sisters see it, they want to help him, Every night, they teach Joe how to dance. At the school music festival, Joe dances with his sisters, and they live a wonderful performance(表演). His father watches it and he is proud of(为……骄傲)them. He knows Joe is doing the right thing.

When I was in the middle school, I seldom raised my hands to answer questions in class. And I found lots of my classmates were just like me. When the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me.

One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. "At the beginning of the class, let me tell you a story. " He said.

"When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded （折叠） in half, wrote their names in bold （粗体） with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener' s name directly. "

"I couldn't understand that. My classmates told me the speakers were all top people who meant chances. When your answer was to their surprise, it meant they might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that. "

After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance and then catch it.

Gulliver learned about the war between Lilliput and Blefuscu and helped the king: he pulled large Blefuscu ships to Lilliput, The king was happy. He wanted to make the people of Blefuscu his slaves(奴隶), but Gulliver did not like this plan. The king got angry. Some bad men in Lilliput wanted to kill Gulliver. Gulliver had to run away from Lilliput to Blefuscu. 

____. Three days later, he saw a boat of normal size-that is, big enough to carry him-overturned(翻倒) in the water, He asked the king of Blefuscu to help him fix it. After about a month the boat was ready and Gulliver set sail. He arrived safely back in England.
