     Three travelers, Allan, Carl and Paul were sitting on the chairs in a train station. They were waiting for
a train that was very late.   
     To pass the time, they began talking to each other.   
     At first, they talked about the weather and their work. Then Paul said,"Tell me-what would you most like
to do if your doctor tell you that you have only three months to live?"   
     The other two men thought about this for a while, then Carl spoke.   
     "Well," he said,"if I have only three months to live, I'll take all my money out of the bank and go to foreign
countries for holidays with my best friend, Erik. I'd like to travel to the places in the world as many as possible. And I'll stay at the best hotels and then eat the best food. I think I'll have a wonderful time."   
      "That's very interesting." Paul said.   
      With these words, he turned to the other man, saying,"And what about you?"   
      "I'll tell you a secret," Allan said."I always want to be a racing driver. So if I have only three months to
live, the first thing I'd like to do is to sell my house. With the money I'll buy the fastest car in the world. Maybe
I can enter all the big motor races."   
      Then he laughed,"I might even end up (以……而告终) world champion."   
      "Now it's your turn," Allan went on, "If your doctor tell you the bad news, what would you most like
to do?"        
      "Oh," said Paul with a smile."I'll go and see another doctor."

     As the sun rose, a dewdrop (露珠) woke up.  There it sat on a leaf, catching the sunlight. Proud of its
simple beauty,  it was very happy.  Around it were other dewdrops,  some on the same leaf and some on
other leaves. The dewdrop was sure that it was the best, the most special dewdrop of them all.
     Ah, it was good to be a dewdrop.
     The  wind  blew  and  the plant began to shake,  tipping  (使倾斜)  the leaf . The  dewdrop  became
frightened as it started to move towards the edge (边缘)of the leaf. Why was this happening? Things were comfortable. Things were safe. Why did they have to change? Why? Why?
     The dewdrop  reached  the edge of th e leaf.  It was sure that this was the end.  The day had only just
begun and the end had come so quickly. It seemed so unfair. It seemed so meaningless. It tried hard to do whatever it could to stay on the leaf, but it was no use.
     Finally, it fell. Below there was a mirror. A reflection of the dewdrop seemed to be coming up to meet
it.  Closer and closer they came together until finally.., the small dewdrop became a part of the great pond (池塘). Now the dewdrop was no more, but it was not destroyed. 
     It had become one with the whole.
