【题目】

Joe was an old man. The 75-year-old lived very happily in a village and had a beautiful family. Joe had four grandchildren, and they visited him during their holidays.

During one vacation, Joe was preparing his home for the kids: cleaning and buying their favorite foods. After he finished working, he realized he lost his favourite watch. The watch was a gift from his wife when their first child was born. Joe treasured the watch very much, especially after his wife’s death. He was very upset about losing it.

Once his grandchildren came, they promised him they would find the watch.

One granddaughter asked: “Grandpa, do you remember when you saw the watch last before it went missing?”

“I guess when I was cleaning the barn(谷仓)！” Joe replied.

The children looked for more than two hours with Joe, but they could not find it. The kids were now also sad, but they tried to comfort(安慰) their grandfather.

One grandson went back to the barn to search again. Joe asked why he was going there a second time. But the little boy just asked the others not to follow him and to remain silent.

He was there for about fifteen minutes and then rushed to his grandfather. He found the watch and happily gave it to Joe.

Joe was surprised and asked how he was able to find it. The little boy replied: “I sat there without making a noise, and the barn was so silent. After a few minutes, I heard the ‘tick, tick’ sound and found the watch.”

Joe hugged and thanked the little boy.

The last Harry Potter movie will be on show in November. But “Hermione Granger” has already moved on from Hogwarts.

Months ago, when the filming (拍摄) of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” was ending, Emma Watson said she felt like “a friend is dying”. The British actress has played Hermione Granger in all Harry Potter movies since 2001. She said she needed to “take a break” and “get herself back together” after the filming.

Emma has kept her long hair for 10 years for the role of Hermione. But she doesn’t regret (遗憾) losing it. “I missed all the experiences that most teenagers go through. I’ve wanted to do this since I was about 16. So as soon as I had the chance I just did it,” she said.

But before the shooting starts, the actress will be playing another role in real life-that of a college student. Last month, she went back to Brown University in the US.
