One day,a rich boy bought a magic mirror (魔镜) .When he got home,he looked in the mirror. His face looked sad. He tried to smile and make funny faces,his face looked still sad. Then he did many happy things* but his face always looked sad.

"Oh,what a terrible mirror!It doesn't work!” he said angrily.

The next day,on his way to buying some choco?late,he saw a little girl crying sadly. The rich boy went up to her and asked what had happened. The little girl said she couldn't find her parents. "Don't worry. I'll help you," the rich boy said. So they went to look for them together. Finally,they found her parents. They were so thankful for his help. After the rich boy arrived home,he looked in the mirror as usual. To his surprise,his face looked very hap?py. The boy understood the magic of the mirror.

A Mark Twain,the famous American writer,was travelling in France. Once he was going by train to Dijon. That afternoon he was very tired and wanted to sleep,so he asked the conductor to wake him up when they came to Dijon. But first he explained that he was a very heavy sleeper. "I'll probably protest (抗议) loudly when you try to wake me up," he said to the conductor, "but do not take any notice,just put me off the train anyway.” Then Mark Twain went to sleep. Later,when he woke up,it was night-time and the train was in Paris already. He realized at once that the conductor had forgotten to wake him up in Dijon. He was very-angry. He ran up to the conductor and began to shout at him. "Ihave never been so angry in all my life," Mark Twain said.

The conductor looked at him calmly (冷静地) .

"You are not half so angry as the American whom I put off at Dijon," he said.
