    We were standing at the top of a church not far from my home. I didn't know why.
   “Look down,” Father said. I tried and saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the streets to the square. “See, Elsa,”Father said. “There is more than one way to the square. If you can't get where you want to go by one road, try another.”
    Earlier that day, I asked Mother to do something about what we had for lunch at school. But she didn't think the food was as bad as I said. When I turned to Father for help, he brought me to the church.
    At school the next day, I filled a bottle with the soup for our lunch and took it home. I told the cook to pour the soup in a plate and bring it to Mother. She drank it and cried out, “What's the matter with the soup today?”I at once told her what I had done , and Mother said that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day .
    Now I really understood why Father had taken me to the church. I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago. I wouldn't stop working until I tried every way to my goal.

    Mr Black was walking in the forest（森林） He was scared when he heard a terrible noise. But he could not get out of the forest. His friends were waiting for him in a village outside the forest. They would give him a lot of money if he took a tiger to them, or they were going to laugh at him.
    Mr Black liked hunting(打猎). He usually killed some birds and animals. But a week ago, after he drank too much, he called himself a brave hunter. So his friends bet(打赌) him twenty thousand dollars if he could kill a tiger.
    Suddenly, he heard a little noise. He ran to a big tree,and climbed up it quickly.He didn't come down until he saw it was a farmer. He went close to him and asked, “Excuse me, sir.Are there any tigers in the forest?”
    “Yes,” said the farmer. “I saw a lot of tigers' tracks（足迹）about a kilometer north near here.”
“Good!”Mr Black said in a hurry. “Which way is to the south,then?”

Bill sells Coca-Cola all over the world. Last week, he returned from the Middle East.

A friend asked, "How was your business with the Arabs?" "Too bad," Bill said in a sad voice. Then he explained, "When I got to the Middle East, I was very confident that I would have a good sale as Coca-Cola is well known around the world. However, I had a problem - I don't know how to speak Arabic. So I made some nice posters to help sell Coca-Cola. There are three pictures in each poster. In the first picture, a man is crawling (爬行) through ahot desert sand. He is terribly tired and thirsty. In the second one, the man is drinking our Coca-Cola with a big mouth. In the third one, he is smiling happily. Soon such posters were seen."

"That's a good idea," said the friend. "Well, it should," Bill answered. "But I didn't know that Arabs usually read from right to left."

A Teacher's Gift

That day I arrived at my class in the morning. Immediately I felt upset and uncomfortable. Today was the day when our teacher would leave and move to another school.

Mr. Smith was very easy to talk with and to have fun with. He was cool, relaxed, and was always friendly when you would see him. I couldn't even imagine how things were going to be without him.

"Thank you everyone for my time here. I will forever keep these memories and friendships I've made in the past five years." He took a deep breath and said," As a moment for me leaving, please look under your seats."

Confused, I slowly checked under my seat to see a yellow block of wood that read "Love" on it .I quickly got it and began to study it. After seconds of watching the block, I realized that it was a Jenga block（积木块）

Tears ran down my face and fell on the Jenga block. I heard my classmates sobbing（抽泣）That was to say, everyone in my class had a Jenga block with the word "Love". We hadn't found a way to express our sadness and also we couldn't find a way to express our love to the respectable man. "This is a reminder to always love others." Mr. Smith said slowly.

Maybe that day wasn't the worst day, and it was just a moment of my life and l was too young to understand Mr. Smith. What Mr. Smith taught us is that whenever and wherever we are. We should love others. The Jenga block acts as a reminder, encouraging me to give a hand to those in need of help. As time goes on, "Love" others has been a habit
