     I felt very sad because I was not able to get the ticket to the film Hero last Friday. I learned from the
newspaper that tickets could be bought at the cinema box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 a.m.
and 4:00 p. m. Since I work from 9:00 a. m. to 5:30 p. m., the only time I could go to the cinema was during
my 45 minutes' lunchtime. It is a pity that the cinema is on the other side of the town and the bus service
between my company and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip
in 45 minutes.
     Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come round
the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip, so I had to go back. The same thing happened on
Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at
the cinema in twenty minutes. But when I got there, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard
one man said he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I found I would not have enough time to wait in line.
I caught the next bus and went back across the town.
     By Friday I understood my only hope was to make the trip by car. It was expensive, but I felt it would be
worth it to see the film. The trip by car only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I reached
the cinema, I was delighted to see that nobody was waiting in line. But I quickly found out that it was because
they had already sold out all the tickets.

     Many years ago, there was an old man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge
(判断) things too quickly. So he told them to go and look at a pear tree. It was far away from his home.
The first son went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in autumn.
     When the sons came back, the old man asked them to say what they had seen.
     The first son complained the tree was ugly. The second son said the tree was covered with buds and
full of hope. The third son said the tree was full of green leaves. They looked so beautiful, and it was the

fruits. It was full of life and fulfillment (收获).

     Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and
all of the others, including Love. One day the feelings were told that the island would sink, so all built boats
and left, except Love. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out (坚持) until the last
possible moment.
     When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
     Richness was passing by Love in a big boat. Love said, "Richness, can you take me with you?"
     Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for
you."
     Love decided to ask Vanity (虚荣心) who was also passing by in a beautiful ship. "Vanity, please help
me!"
     "I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage (破坏) my boat," Vanity answered.
     Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."
     "Oh…Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"
     Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.
     Suddenly, there was a voice,"Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So thankful and happy, Love
even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own
way. Realizing how much was owed (欠) the elder, Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who helped me?"
     "It was Time, "Knowledge answered.
     "Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
     Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom (智慧) and answered, "Because only Time is able to understand how
valuable (珍贵的) Love is."

     Here's an interview to a pilot about his life.
     (R=Reporter; P= Pilot)
R: How much time do pilots actually spend flying a plane?
P: It varies (WES'J) from about 20 minutes on some domestic (区别) flights to as much as 18 hours on
    international flights. It all depends on if the flight is a short- or long-haul flight.
R: Do pilots take breaks during flights or do they fly the whole time?
P: Yes, we take breaks during long-haul flights. Airlines assign (指派) three or four pilots to long flights.
    We take turns flying the plane.
R: If pilots are traveling all the time, how do they deal with jet lag (时差)?
P: Jet lag is annoying for almost all pilots. I try to go to sleep as I would at home.
R: How important is it to know the weight and size of the plane you are flying?
P: It is very important. We weigh almost everything put into the airplane and make estimates (估计) according
    to the number of people on each flight.
R: Do pilots eat the airplane food?
P: Yes, we eat business class food! Airplane food changes every season and is very delicious if you don't hate
    eating lobster (龙虾) every day! The pilots on the same plane are supposed to make different meal choices
    so that if one of the dishes causes food poisoning, only one of them will be sick. That way, at least one
