When our son Bradley was ten, the new bicycle he had received earlier that year was stolen. Owning a bicycle was a big deal to our children when they were little. They spent hours and hours, day after day, on their bicycles, riding up and down the footpath, and at the front of the house. We also rode together as a family a lot. Bicycling was a great way to get the kids out of the house and into the fresh air without spending any money.

    Bradley had discovered that his bicycle had been stolen from our backyard in Campbell town, South Australia, when he and his sister went outside for a morning ride. He couldn't believe that someone would do this.

    He got a large piece of cardboard, painted a sign begging for the bicycle to be returned, and tied the sign to the letterbox. The following morning, when I went out to collect the mail, I found a white envelope with the magical words," Buy yourself a new bicycle". There was a $100 banknote inside.

    We were very touched that someone had the heart to do this. We've never been able to thank the person but we suspect（猜想）that it may have been one of our wonderful neighbors. Bradley painted a big"             !" on the sign and we left it outside for a couple of weeks afterwards, hoping the kind stranger would drive down our street.

    A delighted Bradley was able to buy a new bicycle. As the years went on, the bicycles became bigger and more expensive but remained just as important for those family bicycle rides. Now Bradley is 25. Sometimes I miss the days when receiving a bicycle was the best thing in the world to them.

    All these years later we are still thankful for the stranger's kindness. We were a young family with three little children and it meant a lot to us. We still talk about it and, even now, wonder who the kind stranger was.

In a temple, a little monk（和尚） was complaining（抱怨） to an old monk, "Master, no matter what I do, why do I always meet with more difficulties than others and pay more? Please tell me, am I born with this kind of 1 life?"

The old monk led the little monk to the 2 field outside the temple. They saw that a little road 3 the field into two. In both of the pieces, some carrots were grown. The old monk told him that the carrots were planted at different times. The carrots in one piece were planted 4 than those in the other piece.

The old monk asked the little monk to pull up a carrot from the first field. The little monk did it 5 . However, the carrot was very small.

Then the old monk asked the little monk to pull up another carrot from the other field. The little monk did it with some 6 this time. At last, he pulled the carrot up with hard work. They could see clearly that the carrot had grown very long and 7 .

The old monk 8 the two carrots on the ground, and said to the little monk, "So you can see now. When you use the energy for pulling up the carrots differently, what you get is 9 . This is like the difficulties you meet with in life. You pay more, but what you 10 will also be greater and more. So don't just complain about your difficulties, but also see what you can get from getting over them."

 Do you know the Silver Flower Silk(银丝花)? It's a1 handmade made work of art which has been passed down for more than 1700 years. The Silver Flower Silk Craft(工艺) is divided into the north style and the south style. Beijing stands for the north style,2 Chengdu stands for the south style. The south style, which still keeps the natural color of silver, was a very popular3 among collectors after the 20th century.

 Dao An is the only inheritor(传承人) who has 4 the full set of the Silver Flower Silk Craft. For more than 40 years, she has made efforts to 5 Chinese culture at home and abroad.

 Born in 1962, Dao An became 6 in drawing from childhood. Since junior high school, she had taken school subjects during the day and studied 7 at a night school. In 1980, she received a job 8 a Silver Flower Silk Craft Company. Because of her excellent painting ability, she began to9 Silver Flower Silk works on her own. However, she was not satisfied with them. In order to make better Silver Flower Silk works, Dao An had been studying hard for more than ten years.10 , she has become one of the very few masters of the Silver Flower Silk Craft in China.

 By the late 1990s, however, influenced by the market, many Silver Flower Silk 11 had been shut down. Dao An didn't want the skill to go away, so she decided to 12 a workroom. She wanted more people to have a(n)13 to own their works of the Silver Flower Silk. "The silver has no temperature, but the Silver Flower Silk Craft makes the metal 14 ." Dao An said. "And 15 is worth being known by more people. We should stick to spreading this craft and have good creativity to develop it better."
