My friend named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office，a lovely boy was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, sir?”he asked.

Paul answered. “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas. ”The boy was surprised，“You mean your brother gave it to you and it did cost you nothing? Sir，I wish...”He hesitated (犹豫). Of course Paul knew what the boy wanted，but what the boy said surprised him greatly. “I wish，”the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that. ”Paul looked at the boy in surprise，and then he said，“Would you like to take a ride in my car?”“Oh yes，I'd love to.”the boy answered.

After a short ride，the boy turned and with his eyes shining，said，“Sir，would you mind stopping in front of my house?”

Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two stairs are?”the boy asked.

He went up to the stairs. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back，but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (跛腿的) brother. He sat on the stair and pointed to the car.

“There he is，Buddy，just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a dollar. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about. ”

There was once a young man who liked puppets (木偶) so much that he became an apprentice (学徒) to a master puppet-maker. Sadly, the young man was not so clever, and his teacher and the other apprentices were always telling him he had no talent for making puppets, and that he would achieve nothing in making puppets.

Even so, he enjoyed it so much that he worked day after day to improve. Despite his efforts, they would always find something wrong with his puppets, and the poor puppets ended up being thrown out of the workshop.

The young man wasn’t going to give up, so he decided that from then on he would spend all his time making just one kind of puppet. Whenever he found a fault in his puppet he would throw it away and start again. Years passed, and with each new attempt his puppet became a little bit better. By that time, his puppet was much better than anything that the other apprentices could make, but he kept making improvements. Living like that, the man wasn’t making any money, and many people laughed at how poor he was.

By the time he was an old man, his puppet was truly wonderful. Finally, after so many years of work, he finished work on his puppet, and said, “I can’t find anything wrong with it. This time it is perfect”. And for the first time in all those years, instead of throwing his puppet away, he put it up on the shelf, feeling truly satisfied and happy.

It is well-known that perfect puppet, Pinocchio, came to life after that, had a thousand adventures, and gave that old man — whose name was Geppetto — more joy than any other famous puppet-maker had ever got from any of their creations.
