A Little Hero
A group of Italian soldiers led by a captain were advancing slowly toward the position of the enemy. They arrived at a farmhouse, in front of which sat a small boy, cutting a branch of a tree with his knife.
"What are you doing here?" asked the captain. "Why didn’t you leave with your family?"
  "I don’t have any family," said the boy. "I’m an orphan. I used to work for the family that lived here. They’ve gone, but I stayed in order to see the fighting."
  "Have you seen any Austrians pass by here?"
  "Not within the last three days."
  "Do you think you could climb that tree and tell me whether you see anything of the Austrians in the distance?"
  "Sure!"
  In a few minutes the boy was at the top of the tree.
  "Look straight ahead," cried the captain, "and tell me what you see."
  "Two men on horseback - nothing else."
  "How far away?"
  "About a mile and a half. They’re standing still." ….
  "They’re shooting at me," said the boy. "but don’t worry. Let me tell you what’s to the left. Well, there’s a church and I think I see..."
   A third bullet passed, and the boy was seen to fall suddenly from the tree, dead.
  "Poor boy!" said the captain, covering the boy’s body with a national flag and saying, "He died like a soldier and we must bury him like a soldier."
Soon it was covered with flowers. He gave his life to his country.

Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy. Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
 Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away. If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their

friends. They believe that their family members,  especially their parents,  don’t

know them as well as their friends do. In large families,  it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only turn to their friends for advice.

It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends,  they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up,  because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.
