An elephant and a monkey live in the same forest．They are good friends，but both of them are very proud(骄傲)．The elephant is proud because he is so strong,and the monkey is proud because he is so quick．
At last,they ask the owl(猫头鹰)to judge(判断)which is better，to be strong or to be quick．The owl asks them to do as he says．He asks them to go to the island and bring him some bananas．
The elephant crosses the river,but the monkey can't，because the water runs too fast．Though(尽管)the elephant gets there，the bananas are too high to reach (太高而够不着)。The elephant has to come back．He asks the monkey to get on his back．
As soon as they get there，the monkey quickly climbs up the tree and throws some bananas to the elephant．The elephant catches(接着)them with his nose．
Then they come back to the owl and give him the fruit．The owl says the elephant can't get bananas by himself and the monkey can't either(也)．They can get the bananas only when they help each other．

Modern life is impossible without travelling．The fastest way of travelling is by plane．With a modern airliner(客机) it takes one day to travel to places which took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago．
Travelling by train is slower than by plane,but it has its advantages(优点)．You can see the country you are travelling through．Modern trains have comfortable(舒适的) seats and dining cars．They make even the longest journey enjoyable．
Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible．There are large liners and river boats．You can visit many other countries and different parts of your country on them．Ships are not as fast as trains or planes,but travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday．
Many people like to travel by car．You can make your own timetable．You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day,just as you like．You can stop wherever you like-where there is something interesting to see,in a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal,or at a hotel where you can spend the night．That is why travelling by car is a popular pleasant trip,while people usually take a train or a plane when they are travelling on business．

“This is a fig(无花果) tree,sir,”he said．
“A fig tree?”the rich man was very surprised．“Why,how old are you?”
“I am ninety years old．”
“What!”cried the rich man．“You are ninety years old．You are planting a very young tree now and it'll take years to give fruit．You certainly don't hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree．”The old man looked around the garden．Then he said with a smile,“Tell me,sir．Did you eat figs when you were a boy?”“Sure．”The rich man didn't know why he asked this question．“Then tell me this,”he said．“Who planted the fig trees?”“I don't know．”“You see,sir,”went on the old man．“Our forefathers(祖先)planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me．”
