Once, there lived a young short monk in a temple on top of a hill, caring for his vegetable garden. He had one daily task of carryingtwo
1
of water up the hill from a cold stream. Rain or shine, he never
2
a day carrying water up the mountain to the temple. One day, a thin and tall
3
monk passed the temple and the young monk invited him to
4
. Since they would share the water, they went down the mountain together to fetch water. But the carrying pole is only
5
enough for one bucket. The two monks were unable to
6
the shared load on their carrying pole without shaking the contents of the two buckets all over the short monk. They
7
to retain(保留) only a small
8
of water that the young monk would have carried on his own, not mentioning to
9
the garden. When the young monk began to see his guest as
10
, the other monk began to see his host as unreasonable. Then a
11
monk came. The
12
of the third monk urged everyone to expect that someone else would take on the chore. As a result, no one fetched water though everybody was
13
. One night, a rat jumped and knocked the candleholder(烛台), leading to a devastating(毁坏性的)
14
in the temple. The three monks finally united together to put out the fire. Since then they understood the old saying "unity is strength" and begin to live a
15
life. The temple never lacks water again.

A lady and her husband stepped off the train in Boston. They walked without an appointment (预约) into the outer
1
of Harvard’s president. But they were
2
by his secretary and kept waiting. For hours, the secretary took no notice of them,
3
that the couple would finally become
4
and go away. But they didn’t. The secretary finally decided to disturb the president, though
5
.
A few minutes later, the president walked towards the couple with a
6
face. The lady told him, “We had a son that
7
Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was
8
here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to
9
a memorial (纪念物) to him, somewhere on campus.”
The president wasn’t
10
Instead, he was shocked. “Madam,” he said, “we can’t put up a statue for every person who studied at Harvard and died. If we did, this
11
would look like a cemetery (墓地).” “Oh, no,” the lady
12
quickly, “we don’t want to put up a statue. We would like to give a
13
to Harvard. “The president rolled his eyes and
14
at the couple and then exclaimed, “A building! Do you have any
15
how much a building costs? We have spent over $ 7,500,000 on the campus building at Harvard.” For a moment the lady was silent. The president was
16
, because he could get rid of them now. Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly. “Is that all it costs to start a
17
? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her husband nodded.
18
their offer was turned down. Mr, and Mrs Stanford traveled to California where they founded the University that bears their
19
, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer
20
about.

Have you ever done something silly that made you feel so embarrassed(尴尬的)? Well, I had a really bad Saturday morning last week.
I went to town to do some shopping, and while I was walking through the park
1
my way home, it began to rain. I quickly ran into a nearby phone box because I didn’t have an umbrella. It was raining hard and I decided to stay in the phone box
2
it stopped.
A few minutes later, I saw a young man walk up to the phone box, wearing a yellow raincoat and holding a tool box. I didn’t want to go out into the rain, so I
3
the phone and pretended I was talking to
4
. I thought he would go away,
5
he didn’t. He just waited in the heavy rain, watching me wave
6
hands about and act as if I was deep in conversation.
7
, the rain stopped after about ten minutes. “OK, Mum,”I said loudly into the phone, “I’11 see you later. Bye!”I put the phone down and went out of the phone box. “I’m sorry to keep you
8
for so long.”I said to the man.
Oh,“I don’t want to use the
9
.”he replied. “I’ve just come to repair it. It doesn’t work, you see.”
I felt myself
10
in the face and I quickly ran off with my head down.

When we visit another country, differences in music and dance are
1
some of the first things that we notice. Every culture has
2
its own types of music and dance, which are very different from those of other societies.
Each type of music usually has a distinctive rhythm and a special sound,
3
on the kinds of instruments that are used to produce it. The most common type of instruments are
4
instruments, such as guitars and violins; wind instruments, including horns and flutes. Many different kinds of musical sounds
5
be created by using different combinations of instruments.
The human voice is a very special kind of instrument,
6
it can produce a great number of different sounds with different
7
, ranging from loud to soft. Singing is very popular in most cultures because it allows us to
8
words and ideas with music.
Societies coordinate body movements with musical rhythms to create
9
. Sometimes people dance for fun and individual expression. Dances can also be used to
10
ideas to an audience. Hawaiian dancers,
11
, use arm and hand movements to express the meaning of a song. In the same way, many societies use dances in religious ceremonies
12
to tell about important events.
Music and dance are passed from one
13
to another and thus become a permanent part of the society and
14
culture. Of course, as cultures come
15
contact with each other, the music and dance of one society may be accepted by other societies, or the different styles may be combined to
16
a new kind of music or dance. Some Latin American music, for example, has taken
17
from Indian cultures and mixed them with those from European and African cultures.
18
, popular music from England and the US can be heard in countries
19
the world,
20
it has had an influence on musical tastes, especially among young people.

A farmer had some puppies(小狗)to
1
. He painted a sign advertising the puppies and
2
nailing (钉)it to a post on the edge of his yard. As he was driving the last nail into the post, a little boy came to him.
“Mister,” he said, “I want to buy one of your puppies.”
“Well,” said the farmer, as he
3
the sweat off his face, “these puppies come from fine parents and cost
4
money. Do you have enough money?”
The boy
5
his head for a moment. Then reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a handful of
6
and held it up to the farmer. “I’ve got thirty-nine cents. Is that enough to take a look?” “Sure,” said the farmer. And with that he
7
a whistle (口哨声), “Here, Dolly!” he called.
8
from the doghouse and down the ramp ran Dolly
9
by four little balls of fur. The little boy’ eyes danced with delight. As the dogs made their
10
to the fence, the little boy noticed something else stirring inside the doghouse.
11
another little ball appeared; this one noticeably smaller. Then in a somewhat
12
manner the little pup began hobbling(蹒跚) toward the others, doing its best to
13
.
“I want that one,” the little boy said,
14
to the smallest one. The farmer said, “Son, you don’t want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you
15
these other dogs would.”
With that the little boy
16
back from the fence, and began
17
up one leg of his trousers. In doing so he exposed a steel support running down both sides of his leg
18
itself to a specially made
19
. Looking back up at the farmer, he said, “You see sir, I don't
20
too well myself, and he will need someone who understands.”

Many years ago when the world was a simpler place there lived a shoemaker. He used
1
silk and soft leather(皮革) to make the greatest shoes. Colorful shoes lined the shelves of his store.
One little girl, Rachel, often looked through the
2
into the store. One day while Rachel was looking again, the shoemaker
3
at her side. “Well, dear, which shoes would you take?” he said, smiling.
Rachel was
4
as she hadn’t noticed the little man. “Oh! I …I was just
5
,” Rachel said. “I can’t afford them and I would never take anything that doesn't belong to me.”
The shoemaker said, “I meant to give you a pair as a(n)
6
.” Rachel stared at the shoemaker. A small pointed(尖尖的) ear could be seen underneath(在…底下) his hat. The guy
7
Rachel’s curious gaze(凝视) and fixed his hat tightly over his ear
8
.
“Why don't you wear a pair of your own beautiful shoes?” Rachel questioned him, smiling.
“I am always working and have no need of
9
shoes,” he explained.
Rachel’s smile
10
. “I have no need of good shoes either,” Rachel said in a sad voice and limped (一瘸一拐地走) away.
A few days later, Rachel was walking past the shoe shop when the shoemaker waved her into the shop. Looking around, Rachel said, “You have every color of the rainbow here.”
The shoemaker said, “They are the colors of the rainbow, Rachel.”
11
a drawer(抽屉), he took out the most beautiful pair of shoes Rachel had ever seen. The shoemaker placed the shoes onto her feet. “Take a
12
, Rachel,” he said.
“I …I can’t,” Rachel said with a tear.
“Yes, Rachel, you can,” the shoemaker
13
.
Rachel stood up staight. Deliberately(小心翼翼地) she took a
14
, followed by another and another. “I can do it. I can do it,” she said, walking easily across the floor, not limping at all.
The shoemaker laughed
15
and said, “I told you they were magic shoes…”

On the IraqSyria border,a pack of wild dogs circled American soldiers for food.The leader of the pack was a grayandwhite dog.The soldiers called him Nubs.Nubs was shaking and
1
able to stand.Marine major Brian Dennis looked closer and saw that there was a knife wound
2
his chest.
Dennis couldn’t stand seeing the dog
3
.He and his men immediately treated the wound,and gave Nubs medicine.Nubs
4
but was still in pain.The next day,the team had to
5
.Ten days later,Dennis’s unit was back,and so was Nubs.He was still
6
,but the men fed him and played with him.
Before long the unit once again
7
an outpost (前哨) 70 miles away.Nubs,slowly but determinedly,
8
them far into the trackless wasteland until the men lost
9
of him.Two days later,beyond Dennis’s
10
,he saw Nubs just outside the outpost.The dog had tracked him across 70 miles of frozen desert to
11
with the friend who had saved his life.From then on Nubs and the men slept in the same place,and ran around in the same ruins.
Until an order came down from above that they were not
12
to have pets,Dennis
13
to make sure the dog would continue to live the
14
life.So he quickly raised $4,000 from his family and friends to fly Nubs to
15
.
A month later,when Dennis and the dog were
16
in California,at first Nubs didn’t recognize the guy.
17
within minutes,the dog jumped into Dennis’s arms,jumping up again and again to
18
his friend’s face.
A little
19
and concern in the middle of war will not save a violent world.But small stories,like the story of a soldier and a dog,hold a promise of a(n)

Recently, I stopped by a convenience store to get a newspaper and a bottle of drink. The young woman at the check-out counter (柜台) said, “That’11 be five dollars
1
, please.” She then
2
down at the paper I was
3
and said, “I’m sick and
4
all this negative(消极的) stuff on the front
5
. I want to read some
6
news for a change.” She then said, “In fact, I think someone should just
7
a Good News newspaper—a paper with wonderful, inspirational(鼓舞人心的)
8
about people overcoming difficulty and doing good things for
9
. I’d buy one every day!” She then
10
me for coming in and said, “Maybe we’11 get some good news,” and she laughed. She made my day.
The following day after my business appointments, I
11
the same store again to
12
bottled water and a piece of newspaper, but a
13
young lady was behind the counter. As I checked out, I said, “Good afternoon,” and handed her my
14
. She said nothing — not a word, not a smile or not a gesture. She just handed me my change and
15
a negative tone (语气) ordered, “Next!”
It hit me right between the eyes: Two people, the same age;
16
made me feel great, and the other, well, made me feel that I had inconvenienced(给…带来不便) her by
17
.
Every morning, you should ask
18
this important question: “Who do I want to be today? ‘The Grouch(不高兴的人)’ or ‘The Good News Girl’”? Your answer will do great good to
19
the joy and happiness that you will experience in your
20

20
I didn’t want to.
