13-year-old Addison Logan found a picture of his long-dead uncle inside a camera in May 2012. He bought the camera at a yard sale last Thursday. He often goes to yard sales, where he can buy many things at very low prices.

    The Arkansas boy said he bought this old camera for just one US dollar when he visited a yard sale with his grandmother. He liked taking pictures and he thought a second-hand camera was OK for him to practice taking pictures. Although it was not a digital(数字的) camera, it looked just very nice. When they got home, he took off the camera's film(胶卷) box and found a picture of a man. His grandmother said that the man was her son, Scott, who died in a traffic accident 23 years before.

    It seemed that Scott took the picture with his girlfriend in 1978 or 1979. “It's almost like he's reaching out to us, to tell us that he is still with us, ” said Addiso's father.

    A boy thought that he was the most unhappy person in the world. He thought he was 1 because almost everything bad always happened to him. So he wanted to 2 the secret (秘密) to happiness. He walked a long way and finally came to a beautiful 3. There he met the king（国王）.

     After learning why the boy had come, the king advised that he should  4 the palace and come back in two hours. "At the same time, I want you to hold (拿住) this spoon with milk," said the king. "As you walk around my palace, carry(携带) this spoon 5spilling(溢出) the milk."

    The boy kept his 6 on the spoon and began to walk around the fantastic palace. After 7 hours, he came back to the king. "Well," asked the king. "Did you see the wonderful paintings in 8 palace? Did you see the colorful flowers in the garden(花园)?" The boy felt 9 because he saw nothing. He 10 paid attention(注意) to the milk.

    "Then go back and see the beauty of my world," said the king. 11 time the boy saw all of the works of art on the walls. He saw the greatest gardens and mountains all around. 12 he came back, he described everything he saw.

    "But where is the 13?" asked the king. Looking down at the spoon he was holding, the boy saw there was 14 on the spoon. "Well, there is only one piece of advice I can 15 you," said the king. "The secret to happiness is to see all the beauty of the world and also keep an eye on the milk on the spoon."

    It was summer. A duck was sitting on many eggs in her house. Her little ducks were going to come to the world. One little duck after another came out from the eggs. The last baby was big and ugly. His brothers and sisters weren't willing to play with him because he was too ugly. Even his mother hated him too. And the girl who fed them kicked him.

    The poor little duck was so sad that he ran away from home in the winter. On his way, a big dog appeared, but the dog did not come close to him. "Oh, I am so ugly that even the dog won't bite me." the duck said to himself.

A kind farmer took him home when the weather got colder. He stayed there for a whole winter and left when the spring came.

    One day, he met three beautiful white swans (天鹅) when he was swimming in a lake. They swam toward him. He was afraid to make friends with them. But what did he see in the clear water? He was no longer a dark grey ugly duck. He was a beautiful swan himself. How amazing! He never dreamed that he could be so beautiful.

How many bicycles do you need in your life? For Chai Lin, the answer is 1,300 and the number is continuing to grow.

Bicycles first came into China in the 19th century. At that time, they were a symbol of having a lot of money. And later they became a common way of transport. When Chai saw some people riding a bicycle, he said,"They were like flying on the streets, and my heart went flying with them."Since then, he dreamed of owning a bike.

However, at that time a bicycle was too expensive for ordinary Chinese. To get enough money sooner, Chai began to sell his pictures in the street. With his own hard work and the help of his family, Chai got his first bike, at the price of 880 yuan, in 1979.

Chai Lin became a businessman years later and he could buy motorbikes and cars. ▲ He began to collect bikes of different brands and ages from around the world in different ways. Up to now, Chai has collected more than 1,300bikes.

With his collection growing, there was no room big enough to keep it. In 2009, with the support of the Gansu provincial government, he spent 200 million yuan building a museum just for exhibiting(展出) his bikes. After 10 years' hard work, the Gansu Sanmu Bicycle Museum in Lanzhou finally opened to the public in January 2019. People can go and enjoy the bikes for free. By 2024, more than two million visitors have been there.

"A large part of my collection is not yet exhibited and has to be kept in other places. I hope to expand (扩大) the museum for my bikes,"he said.
