Mr. Smith gave his wife money every Friday evening. His wife always spent it all the next Wednesday, so that for the next three days she had no money to spend at all. One day Mr. Smith asked her, “But how did you spend all that money?” She answered, “I don't know.” So one Friday evening, Mr. Smith gave her money together with an exercise book and a pencil. He said to his wife, “Please write down how you spend the money.” Next Tuesday, his wife had no money again. Mr. Smith took the exercise book to see how she had spent it. “I have done what you told me,” she said gladly. She had written “Friday, I got 18 pounds from Mr. Smith.” on the first page, and on the second page, she wrote, “Tuesday, I have spent it all.”

Henry was from the United States and he had come to London for a holiday.
One day he was not feeling well. So he was to the clerk at the desk of his hotel and said, “I want to see a doctor. Can you give me the name of a good one?” The clerk looked in a book, and said, “Dr. Grey.”
“Is he expensive?”
“Well,” the clerk answered, “he always asks for his patients two pounds for their first visit to him, and 1.5 pounds for later visit.”
Henry decided (决定) to save 50 pence. When he went to see the doctor he said, “I've come again, doctor.”
For a few seconds the doctor looked at his face carefully without saying anything. Then he nodded and said, “Oh, yes.” He examined (检查) him and then said, “Everything's going as it should do. Just continue (继续)with the medicine (药) I gave you last time.”

My daughter Eyen is ten years old. She is in Grade Three in a primary school. She is a cute girl though(虽然) she has some strange ideas sometimes.

One day she asks me, “Mum, what's your favourite subject?” I think for a while(一会儿) and answer，“It is difficult to tell. I love singing, so music is my favourite. And I am good at English. My history teacher also says I am excellent. Well, I can say I don't like science. But science is important for us, you know. So you must do well in it. What is your favourite subject, Eyen? Tell me something about your subject, dear.”

“I like Chinese. It is easy. I like English because my English teacher likes me very much. I can't stand maths. It's serious and sad(悲哀的).”

“Do you mean(意味)your maths teacher is serious and sad?”

“No, it is maths, not the maths teacher.”

“Why do you think so?”

“Because maths has so many problems! Isn't it sad all day?”

When I was about 12, I had an "enemy", a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings（缺点）. Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn't a good student. Sometirmes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with（忍受）her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, "Are the things she said true or not? Mary, have you ever wondered what you're really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said. "

I did as he told me and I was very surprised to discover that about half the things were true.

I took the list to my dad. He refused to take it. "That's just for you," he said. "You know the truth about yourself better than any other people. When something said about you is true, it will be helpful to you. Don't shut your ears. Listen to them all, but remember the truth and do what you think is right."

Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure（珍惜）all your life！
