Long long ago, King Swan (天鹅国王) had a beautiful daughter. On her 15th birthday, she wished that when she was old enough, she could choose her own husband. King Swan agreed with her.
When the princess was old enough, King Swan called all the birds to his home. Birds came from everywhere, even from far away. King Swan told his lovely daughter to choose one she liked. She looked over the many birds. Finally, she chose a green long-necked peacock (孔雀). She told her father, "This bird, the peacock, will be my husband."
Hearing that the peacock was the lucky one, all the other birds crowded around to congratulate (祝贺) him. The excited peacock said nothing but held his head high. Later he began to shout and show his beauty in a strange dance. The other birds started to laugh.
King Swan was angry. Standing in the middle of the birds, he said, "Sir Peacock, your voice is sweet, and you're really very pretty. But you are notmodest at all. I will not allow my daughter to marry you!"
The princess also learned she was wrong. Then King Swan married his daughter to a modest bird. The peacock flew away, having lost a beautiful wife.

Hello, I'm happy to tell you something about Kate's winter holiday.
Every Cloud Has a Silver Lining
Claire, America Sometimes something good comes out of a bad thing. Last month,I took a photo of an amazing sunset over a lake when hiking in a park. Then I decided to send it to my brother Charley. Anyway, I dropped my phone in the water. OMG! I lost all my photos and my phone. Well, luckily, Charley sent my sunset photo to the TV station. Today, they chose it for Photo of the Month, and I won a new camera. Maybe every cloud has a silver lining! |
Sue, Canada Ten years ago, my car broke down on my way to school. I didn't have enough money to fix it, so that term I had to get up at 5:00 a. m. every day to take the bus. One cold, wet morning, I felt really tired. But this guy started talking to me on the bus, and he really made me laugh! I also found that we studied at the same school. We exchanged phone numbers, and the rest is history. Ten years later, we' re married with two children. Oh, and a new car! Every cloud has a silver lining! |
Yang, China Some weeks ago, I helped a Malaysian friend Andrew move his things into my house. He lost his job and needed a place to stay. But I hurt my back when carrying some heavy boxes. It was really bad, so I had to go to the hospital. Anyway, I saw an advertisement for a computer programmer at the hospital. I called my friend, and he got the job! At least his cloud had a silver lining! Though I do have my house all to myself again. |
In Anhui Province, an about two- metre-wide alley(小巷), or "Liu Chi Xiang" in Chinese, now attracts a lot of visitors. It has a story behind it.
During the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Ying, a minister(大臣), received a letter from his family in Anhui Province one day. From the letter, Zhang learnt that his family quarrelled with their neighbour Wu because of the two sides' house boundary(边界).
Then, Zhang wrote a poem to advise the family to be generous(大度的). What he said enlightened(启发) the family members as the wall was only a little thing. It was the close relationship with their neighbours that mattered. They decided to move their wall about one metre back for their neighbour. In return, the Wu family also moved back another metre. Thus, it made an about two-metre-wide alley between the houses.
Now, the alley has become very famous because people see it as enlightenment, telling people to obey public morals(道德) and keep harmony(和谐).
