John and Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well. But one day their good relationship broke.

One morning John woke up to find a stream(小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought. Then John met a carpenter(木匠).

John said. “My neighbour Bob dug(挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence(栅栏)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more.”

The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that makes you happy.”About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!

It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched(伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”

Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Bob.

Later they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”

As is known to all, waste has become a more and more serious problem. We can easily see many people throw a lot of food into the garbage can. Some people spend thousands of yuan buying fashionable clothes. What do you think of them? Here are some of students’ opinions:

Mary

As for me, I believe “Waste not, want not.” As we know, there are still millions of Chinese living in a poor condition. We can never afford waste. Therefore, it is no doubt that saving is still a good habit that we should not give up. I do not like the men who spend their money in a wrong way. They do not know waste is a bad thing. It can only make them happy for the time being.

Jacky

More and more people are no longer interested in the simple life style, including me. And I feel embarrassed to save the things I used. What I love is the latest fashion. In my eyes, saving is already out of style.

Sally

One of the best ways we students can do in this situation is to recycle the textbooks we are using everyday. After we've used them and are moving on to new ones, we should find ways to recycle these books instead of simply throwing them away. There are different ways to do so such as sending them to a recycling factory, reusing them for other purposes, passing them on to new students and so on.

Tim

The negative effects of waste can be shown as follows. Firstly, it makes some students ask their parents for money quite often, which is harmful to their development. If they don’t learn to support themselves, they will be “useless people” when they graduate. Secondly, it is not easy for our parents to arrange for our schooling. Last but not the least, just like what Mary said that our country is still poor. There are many people who cannot go to university and many poor people still need our help.
