          A hare was very popular with the other animals who all said they were her friends.But one day she heard the hounds(猎犬)getting close and hoped to escape them by the aid of her many friends. So,she went to the horse,and asked him to carry her away from the hounds on his back.But he refused,because he had important work to do for his master. He felt sure that all her other friends would come to help her.
          She then came to the bull,and hoped that he would repel the hounds with his horns (角).The bull replied,"I am very sorry,but I have an appointment with a lady;but I feel sure that our friend the goat will do what you want." The goat,however,feared that his back might do her some harm if he took her upon it.The sheep,he felt sure,was the proper friend to ask for help.
    So she went to the sheep and told him the situation.The sheep replied,"Another time,my dear friend. I do not like to have anything to do with it,as hounds have been known to eat sheep as well as hares."
    The hare then went,as a last hope,to the calf (小牛),who regretted that he was unable to help her,as he did not like to take the responsibility (责任) upon himself,as so many older persons than himself had refused the task.By this time the hounds were quite near,and the hare took to her heels and luckily escaped.

    Years ago, my father and I were on a summer road trip from Dallas to Austin. On our way back, the battery meter (电池电量计) seemed to act funny, jumping up then dropping down. 

    We stopped to buy a new battery and replaced (替换) the 1 one in the parking lot. And we went on our trip. We got about 20 miles outside the city when our car died. Then we 2 it was not the problem of the battery. We had to 3 on the side of the road. My father 4 the car and repaired it on his own, but it still didn't work. 

    We were about to call for help when a 5 stopped in front of our car. A man got out and started walking towards us. He asked us what the problem was. My father 6 that our car was dead. The man said he had a tow chain (拖链) and would be able to tow us to Dallas, which was about 200 miles away. We agreed and thanked him. 

    Then my father stayed in our car, and I got on the truck. Later I learned the 7 of the truck driver. About a year ago, he was told by the doctor that he had lung cancer (肺癌), and his days were 8 . Instead of doing treatment (治疗), he decided to accept the fact and spend the rest of his life driving all over Texas, and 9 people who were in need. 

    I can't remember his name anymore, but I'll never 10 him helping us that night.

    Personally, there is nothing I love more than asking "stupid" questions, especially the ones that have no right answers. I remember once asking some kids what time it was, at home, in Singapore, and finally on the Moon. After a long silence, finally a shy girl ventured (试探地说) to say that it was "every time" followed by an energetic Einstein who shouted it was "no time". Both kids shared that week's Noble Prize because no humans live in that faraway world and time is created by humans.

    As a matter of fact, we are all good at asking questions by nature, but sadly as we age, we get used to the world around us and take things for granted. We became more results-oriented (注重结果的) and concentrate our efforts on success. If something is working, don't fix it or worry about the cause; just relax and go with the flow. Common belief may work well, but that does not mean it is always right. Throughout history, it has been those who have questioned common belief and those who have challenged our common-sense ideas of the world that have been the ones to have brought about major progress in human civilization.

    In 500 BC, the ancient Greeks wondered whether the Earth was round because sailors on the sea had noticed that the farther south they went, the more different stars they saw in the sky. Why was the sky changing? Nearly 2,000 years later, the Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei became interested in this question and ended up demonstrating the "crazy" concept of heliocentrism (日心说), in which the Sun lies at the center of the universe while the Earth circles around it at 30 kilometers per second. But if the Earth is spinning around so quickly, why aren't we being thrown off of the surface of the planet? The answer to this question would not be clear for another century.

    People like routine, but past performance is no guarantee of future results. While those who challenge common belief tend to be subjected to abuse, the progress of humankind would have otherwise been impossible without these persistent people and their "stupid" questions.

    Feeling sad or upset? Don't turn to a cheerful comedy. A sad movie may be just what you need.

    A team of scientists at Ohio State University, US, has found that sad movies can make people happier. They published their study in a magazine called Communication Research. Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement. The movie tells the story of two lovers who are separated and die at the end during World War II. Before and after the movie, the students answered questions testing how happy they were with their lives. They also answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to measure different emotions, including sadness.

    Results showed that overall, people felt better after watching the movie. Scientists believe this is because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships. Their lives, compared to those of the unlucky lovers on the screen, were full of hope. "I want to live my life to the fullest, and this movie has made me think a lot." One student wrote.

    Silvia Knobloch Westerwick, the leader of the study, explained that negative moods make people more thoughtful. "Positive emotions are generally a signal that everything is fine, you don't have to worry, you don't have to think about issues in your life," she said, "but negative emotions, like sadness, make you think more critically about your situation. So seeing a sad movie may make you sad, but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and appreciate them more."

    I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the1 then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at 2 .

    I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact,I think I 3 very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see— the 4 and magical places that I had never been to.

     The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism(乐观),5 the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost— having to study in three schools as a result of 6 moves. I 7 knew what I should be. Mother 8 , and I had got a stepfather(继父), so things became even more difficult for me. I was often in 9 , and saw no end to"the hard times".

     My responsibilities(责任心) in the family 10 a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with immigration(移民) officers, took my grandparents to the doctor, and even 11 telephone bills with the telephone company.

     From my 12 I have learned one important rule: almost all troubles finally13 ! Something good is certain to happen 14 the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that 15 .
