    Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher's shop. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was realiy, the lady's handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up immediately.

To the butcher's more surprise, it came for the third time at six o'clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper The butcher felt a bit puzzled. He said to himself, "This is a small dog.

My father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, we used to talk much with each other. He always told me, "You should have goals like climbing the mountain." I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing time. It gave me chance to talk with my father. If we didn't climb the mountain, we couldn't have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I learned much from him. And it also gave me chance to think more carefully. What more, I learned to keep doing something or waiting for it for a along time. 

Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so hard for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds' singing; but as time passed, I got an ache in both of my legs. I wanted to give up climbing. In fact, I hated it at that time, but my father said to me "You can always see a beautiful sky at the highest place of the mountain, but you can't see it before you get there. Only there, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life."

At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence. I found myself standing at the highest place of the mountain. And there, I could see the whole of the sky, and it was as clear as crystal(水晶).
