Several days later, lots of people came to the competition and showed their things. The queen was not satisfied with what she saw. The adviser suggested, "What you are looking for cannot be brought to you. You must look for it by yourself. What about a journey?"

The queen was interested in the idea, so she started at once. As she was on top of the hill near her palace, she looked down and suddenly something cried in her heart. "Why have I never found my palace so beautiful?"

The queen spent one year traveling. She saw beauty on the farm, in the forest and even in the stars twinkling at night on her journey. But what was the most beautiful thing? She thought it over.

The summer vacation is over. It's true that time flies. In the vacation, the weather was very hot, but I enjoyed myself. I did my homework in the morning. I got up at 6:30a.m. and took a walk in the garden for half an hour. After breakfast I began reading English and Chinese and did some math exercises. It usually took me three hours or more. I worked quite hard and I made great progress(进步).
I spent the afternoon outside. I went swimming and it was fun. I would not go home until it was about five or six o'clock. Sometimes my friends came to see me and we spent some time listening to music.In this way I spent my vacation happily. I not only studied hard, but also became a good swimmer. Now I'm in good health and high spirits(精神).

Molly Daniels opened the door so hard that the door nearly broke it. Then she looked through the window at her neighbor across the yard. “ She is in my garden again. Those are my strawberries, not hers. Maybe I should call the police.”
Her friend, Doris, was sitting at the table with a cup of coffee in her hands. “You want to call the police because she picks your strawberries?” she asked.
“Of course,” Molly answered angrily. “What would you do if your neighbor walked into your yard without your permission and picked your strawberries?”
“ I would say, better here the bees.”
“The bees don't take my strawberries.”
“But the birds do,” Doris continued. “That old lady only picks a few strawberries every year, and the only ones she picks are those you leave to the birds. Why don't you pick some of your good strawberries and give them to her?”
“Are you crazy? What are you thinking?'
“Don't you remember what happened when you were in hospital last year? She went to see you and gave you a pot full of chicken soup. When you give her the strawberries you can tell her that you still remember that.”
Molly was shocked. She had almost forgotten that little kindness because she was too angry. Then she picked a basket of good strawberries and went out. Through the window, Doris could see that the anger on Molly's face changed into a bright smile.

    A woman repeated a bit of gossip (流言) about a neighbour. Within a few days the whole neighbourhood knew the story. The neighbour was deeply hurt. Later the woman responsible (负责) for spreading the gossip learned that it was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a wise old man to find out what she could do to repair the harm.
   “Go to the marketplace,” he said. “and buy a chicken, and have it killed, then on your way home, pluck (拔) its feathers and drop them one by one along the road. ” Although surprised by this advice, the woman did what she was told.
   The next day the wise man said, “ Now, go and collect all those feathers you dropped yesterday and bring them back to me. ”
The woman followed the same road, but she was so discouraged when she found the wind had blown all the feathers away. After searching for hours, she returned with only three in her hand.
   “ You see, ” said the old man, “it's easy to drop them, but it's impossible to get them back . So it is with gossip. It doesn't take much to spread a gossip, but once you do, you can never completely undo the wrong.”

During the week's time, 3visited London and Paris –as much as we could, Big Ben, the Louvre and so on. All these were beautiful places we expected to see before. We really enjoyed ourselves.

On our last night in Paris,4we enjoyed the night view(夜景) of the Eiffel Tower, my husband called home. His mother 5the phone. In a second, my husband's face fell and he looked so worried. I could feel something6happened.

“What's wrong?” I asked.

Jerry has a happy family — his parents, his sister and he. They live in a small town, and it is not far from the city.

One day, Jerry goes to a shopping centre in the city to buy a new pair of trousers. There are too many people in the shop, so he doesn't want to try them on there.

He goes back home and tries on the trousers in his bedroom. They are too long for him and he wants to ask his mother or sister to shorten (剪短) them for him. When he goes to his mother, she is cooking lunch and doesn't have any time to help him. He goes to his sister, but she is washing clothes and shoes. "The new trousers are too long. Can you help me to shorten them five centimetres?" His mother and sister are busy, and they don't say anything. Jerry goes out to fly kites with his classmates.

Jerry's father is not busy, so he helps his son to shorten the trousers and plays computer games again in the study. When his mother finishes cooking, she goes to Jerry's bedroom and helps him to shorten the trousers five centimetres, too. But she doesn't tell her daughter about it and goes out.

After an hour, Jerry's sister remembers her brother's trousers. So she goes quietly into the room and also helps her brother to shorten the trousers five centimetres.

Can you guess the look on Jerry's face when he wears the trousers next time?
