A boy called Mike had many friends, and he was proud of it. Whoever he met, he would like to show off how popular he was at school.

One day, his grandpa said to him, “Mike, I know that you don't have as many friends as you think. Many of them are not true to you.”

Mike thought maybe his grandpa was right. However, he wasn't sure how he could test whether his schoolmates were real friends or not, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need. It's in my room. Wait a minute.” The old man left, soon returning as if(好像) carrying something in his hand, but Mike could see nothing there.

“Take it. It's a very special chair. Because it's invisible, it will be hard for you to sit on it. However, if you manage to sit on it, you can use the chair's magic power to tell who your real friends are.”

Mike took the strange invisible chair to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair.

“Nobody moves. You're about to see something amazing,” said Mike. Then he tried sitting on the chair. Having difficulty seeing it, he missed and fell to the ground. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. “Wait, wait,” said Mike, making another try. But again he missed the chair.

Mike didn't give up. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair. Finally, he did it. This time he felt himself in mid-air. Then he experienced the magic that his grandpa had been talking about. Looking around, Mike saw George, Lucas and Diana holding him up, so he wouldn't fall. But some schoolmates whom he had regarded as friends had done nothing but made fun of him.

Now, he asked, “What's the meaning of the word ‘Drunk', dad?” “Well, my son,” his father replied, “Look, there are standing two policemen. If I think of the two policemen as four, then I am drunk.”

Once upon a time, there lived a rich man. He had a servant (仆人). He and the servant loved wine and good food very much. Each time the rich man left his home, the servant would drink the wine and eat up all the nice food in the house. The rich man knew what his servant did, but he had never caught his servant doing that.
　　One morning, when he left home, he said to the servant, "Here are two bottles of poison (毒药) and some nice food in the house. You must take good care of them. " With these words, he went out.
　　But the servant knew that the rich man had said was untrue. After the rich man was away from his home, he enjoyed a nice meal. Because he drank too much, he was drunk and fell to the ground. When the rich man came back, he couldn't find his food and his wine. He became very angry. He woke the servant up. But the servant told his story very well. He said a cat had eaten up everything. He was afraid to be punished（惩罚）, so he drank the poison to kill himself.

Long long ago, a king had a big rock placed in the middle of a very busy road. Then he hid nearby to see if anyone would move the rock out of the way to make it convenient for others. Some of the king's wealthiest supporters came past and simply walked around it. Many others complained about the rock and some blamed the king for the problem. To the king's surprise, no one did anything about moving it out of the way.
Finally, a poor farmer came along, carrying a load of old vegetables. When he saw the rock, he put down his load, and tried to move the heavy rock to the side of the road. No one stopped to help him. Many laughed at him and made jokes as they walked past. Finally, after much pushing and straining, and with no help , the farmer managed(设法) to get the rock to the side of the road. As he bent down to pick up his vegetables, he noticed a small bag lying in the road, exactly where the rock had been. There was a lot of money and a note in the bag. The note was from the king saying that the money was for the person who moved the rock out of the way.
Taking responsibility(责任) is about solving hard problems. The farmer takes responsibility when no one else is prepared to. It does not always mean that you will get an instant reward, but it is a value that builds up a community, and makes life better for all of us.

Why should We Read Literature (文学作品)

Maria: I enjoy reading literature because it increases my vocabulary. Literary novels rather than easy-to-read novels, help me learn new words and good sentences while showing me new thoughts and ideas.

Frank: Literature is culture. Just as each painting tells a story, so does a novel. I always feel excited to know different cultures from many different writers. They come from different places, times and ages. Each of their great novels is beautiful and an important piece of culture.

Lily: I think literature makes me more creative. Works of novels show everything in a new way. Our minds open up to think about how the main character of a story thinks, or the story develops. Novels influence how we think so that we may discover new ideas.

William: Reading literature makes me a better man. When I read literature, I'll learn about the world, others and myself. I get new information from each work and learn what is good or bad. Reading literature develops my mind and tells me how to interact with the world. I can be a better person after reading good works. I love literature.
