Ryan's life was nearly perfect. He had lots of friends on his block. They walked to school together every day, and after school they always had time to play.

Ryan did have one problem. It was his two-year-old sister, Allie. She was too small to play ball games. She couldn't climb trees yet. Ryan and his friends didn't want her around.

Ryan tried asking his mum to keep Allie at home. "Why does my sister have to come along?" he asked. "Troy's sister doesn't. Jimmy's sister doesn't. Why me?"

Ryan's mother just laughed, "Troy's sister is only six months old, and Jimmy doesn't have a sister. Allie is nice, isn't she?"

Today, Ryan was going to play baseball with his friends after school. Allie followed him as usual. The boys used to play football, but one of them broke a window at Mr Mcwhirter's house. Mr Mcwhirter wouldn't give them their ball back.

The game got started. Allie sat on a stone nearby. Minutes later it was Jimmy's turn to hit the ball. Unluckily, it fell right into Mr Mcwhirter's yard.

The boys ran over to Mr Mcwhirter's fence (栅栏). The ball was just out of reach.

"None of us can fit through the fence." Jimmy said.

The boys looked glum.

Suddenly, Jimmy got an idea. "Allie, come over!" he called. "Would you like to get that ball for us?"

Allie looked at the boys. Then she slipped through the fence, picked up the ball and came back out of the yard.

"Wow," said Troy. "So quick! Thanks, Allie."

"Nice job," said Jimmy.

"Come on," said Ryan, suddenly proud of his kid sister. "I'll teach you how to swing the bat."

He asked her what was wrong and she replied, “I want to buy a red rose for my mother, but I only have seventy-five cents. A rose costs two dollars.”The man smiled and said, “Come into the shop with me, and I'll buy you a rose.”He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother's flowers. As they were leaving, he offered to drive the girl home. She said, "Yes, please! You can take me to my mother."She brought him to a cemetery(墓地),where she placed the rose on the grave.

One day a man went home and said to his wife, "I bought something for you." "Thank you!" said his wife. "What have you bought for me?" "I've bought a gold ring (金戒指). Here it is." He took it out for his wife to see. Then he dropped it to the ground. He began to look for it on the ground, but it was dark in the house and he could not see anything. Then he went out and began to look for it in the street. Just then a friend came along. "What's the matter with you?" asked his friend. "I am looking for my ring. I lost it just now." said the man. "Where did you lose it?" "I lost it in my house." "You lost your ring in your house, but you are looking for it in the street. How foolish it is!" "Ah," said the man, "But it is dark in my house. I shall never find it there. Bet here in the street, it is much brighter, I can see everything."

A doctor was once teaching a class of medical students at a famous hospital in Edinburgh. An injured(受伤) man was brought in, and the doctor turned to one of his students and asked him, "What's wrong with this man?"

"I don't know, Sir." the student answered. "Should I examine him and find out?"

"There is no need to examine him," said the doctor. "You should know without asking questions. He has hurt his right knee. Didn't you notice the way he walked? He hurt it by burning it in the fire. You see his trousers leg is burnt away at the knee. This is Monday morning. Yesterday was fine, but on Saturday the roads were wet and muddy(泥泞的). The man's trousers are all muddy. He fell down on Saturday night. "

The doctor then turned to the man and said, "You had your pay on Saturday and went to a public house and drunk too much. You got muddy and wet on the way home. Because you had drunk too much, you fell on the fire and burnt your knee. Is that right?"

"Yes, Sir." said the man.

Not only kids of Tiger Moms go to Harvard.

Dawn Loggins of Lawndale, N.C. is on her way to Harvard, one of the eight world-famous universities in the eastern US. Nobody encouraged her to study or paid for her special classes. This girl created her own future.

The teen was abandoned by her family last summer, when her parents and two sisters moved to Tennessee. She found herself homeless and had to spend the night on friend's sofas.

The school bus driver learned about Dawn's situation and invited Dawn to move in with her family. Soon, Dawn had a job at Burns High School. She worked from 6 a.m. to 7:40 a.m. before the first school bell rang. she swept floors and picked up trash again in the afternoons, before diving(跳水)into her studies in the evenings.

Dawn's hard work paid off, she finished school with a 3.9 GPA and scored 2,110 on the SAT.

"There were times when I felt like it would be easiest if I gave up," the 18-year-old said." But it was never in me to give up, because I realized that I was never going to be successful unless I got an education."

Even before Dawn's family left her, she led a difficult life. Her family was poor and cups of noodles were often the only food. Dawn "studied by candlelight" because her parents couldn't afford to pay the electricity bill(电费).

Dawn has now reconnected with her family. They are proud of her accomplishments(成就) and are attending her high school graduation.
