Tom goes to see his grandparents with his father. On the train, Tom often puts his head out of the window. His father says, "Tom, don't put your head out of the window. ''But Tom goes on putting his head out of the window.

    His father takes Tom's hat quietly, hides(藏)it behind his back and says to Tom, "You see, your hat is gone(消失)."Tom is afraid. His father says, "Well, whistle once. Maybe your hat will come back. "Tom whistles. His father puts the hat on Tom's head quickly. "Oh! It's wonderful! "Tom laughs and says. He quickly takes his father's hat and throws it out of the window. "Now it's your turn to whistle, Dad!" he says happily.

    One day when some government officials were rebuilding a house, they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to make the mice inside the hole come out. A while later they saw mice running out, one after another, but they saw two mice didn't run away immediately. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.

    Everyone was puzzled, so they came nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the two mice was blind, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite his tail in order to pull the blind one with him to run away.

    During the meal time, they started to talk about the two mice. One serious American said, "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard."

    A smart Frenchman said, "I think the relationship between them was that of husband and wife."

    A Japanese said, "I think the relationship between them was that of mother and son."

    At that moment, one Chinese asked, "Why did those two mice have a certain relationship?"

    Suddenly, they looked back at the Chinese. The American, the Frenchman and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and didn't answer.

    In fact, the great love is not built on friendship or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.

Zhi Nong was a photographer who was born in a small town in Yunnan Province. When he was young, he moved to Kunming with his mother. Feeling like a caged (笼中的) bird in the big city, he was bored with the busy and noisy city life and wanted to close to the nature.

His chance soon came. In 1983, be helped make a movie about birds. What he did before led him to take photos of flying birds.

In the 1980s, the Internet was not that popular in China and cameras were expensive. He borrowed a camera and began to study how to use it. During that time, the library have favourite place where he first read some and began to study how to use it. During that time, the library became his favourite place where be first read some magazines about nature. It opened a door to nature for him.

In 1992, a research programme was set up to protect a kind of unusual monkeys which only live in China. Usually, the home of these monkeys has half-a-year-long winters. It brought a lot of difficulties to Zhi Nong's work, but he never stopped. "I didn't see the monkeys in the wild until I went into the mountains the third time." said Zhi Nong. He went into the snow mountains six times just to get great photographs of the monkeys.

Three years later, his works won international prizes. People around the world began to notice the protection of wild animals in China. And he is the first Chinese winner of the World Wildlife Photographer of the Year.

In order to call up (号召) more people to protect wildlife with cameras, he started "China Wildlife Photography Training Camp". He hopes that more young people will join in for the nature protection.

I never loved soccer. Not because I didn't find it interesting, but because I never understood the game. Quite silly if you asked me! Two teams kicking a ball into a giant net. In the 90 minutes they did this, I could read through an interesting book!

I was a disappointment to my father. He even gave me a football with Pele's name on it for my birthday. Funny looking thing. It was in the gift paper and there was a card that read "Happy birthday, Xolisa, love from Mum and Dad". I put the ball, still in its gift paper, on my study table—just to look at.

One day, my new friend came to visit. "Don't you go out to play?" he asked. "No!" I answered as quickly as I could. He rolled his eyes and fixed them on the football on my study table. "Whose is that?" he asked excitedly. "Mine,"I said. He reached for it. He took off the paper and bounced the ball all over the place. "Come on, let's go. We'll play outside with this!" I nodded. It was my ball so I followed him! I left my book on the bed.

I had no idea what I had to do, standing in the middle of the field. I just stood there, looking at my new friend as he played happily with my ball. He kicked the ball to me. I didn't know what to do. I picked up the ball and ran with it. "Kick it at me!" he screamed from across the field. So I placed the ball near my feet and kicked it as hard as I could. It was a bad kick and the ball hit the girl standing in front of me. How embarrassing! Luckily it didn't hurt her!

Soon, other kids joined us. Everyone quickly got into two teams. I didn't know the rules then, but watched others and ran just to keep up in the game. I quickly learnt. I didn't kick a goal, but that didn't matter.

To my surprise, I enjoyed the experience— even the sweat and the mud. Afterwards, I dribbled (颠)the ball all the way home. When Mum saw me, she could hardly speak. Then she smiled and said,"Take off those shoes here, mister. I don't want mud in my house!"I ran inside, hopping(双脚跳) all the way to the bathroom.

From that day onwards,        ▲    .
