6.Once,a king had a great highway(公路) built for his people.Just before it was open to the public,the king decided to have a contest.He invited his people to take part in the contest.Their challenge was to see who could travel the highway the best.
On the day of the contest,some people came to the highway in fine clothing; some had fancy hairstyles or brought great food.Some young men came in their tracksuits and rang along the highway.People traveled the highway all day.But each one,when he or she completed the trip,complained  to the king that there was a large pile of rocks in the way that had blocked his or her travels..
At the end of the day,a lone traveler crossed the finishing line and walked over to the king.He was tired and dirty,but he showed the king great respect and handed him a bag of gold.He explained,"I stopped along the way to clear a pile of rocks that was blocking the road.This bag of gold was under it all.I want you to return it to its rightful owner."
The king replied:"You are the rightful owner.You've earned this gold,for you won my contest."
The man won the contest just because he was the only one who stopped to make the road smoother(平稳的).Sometimes,the greatest prize comes not from helping yourself,but from helping others.

16.Chinese students may be the world's most hard-working at home.A recent report says that 15-year-olds in Shanghai spend the longest time on homework,compared with their peers around the world.
The report was released by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).It surveyed 510,000 students in 65 countries and regions.Results show that the global average is about 4.9 hours'worth of homework each week.Students in Shanghai spend the longest time-13.8 hours.Those in Russia and Singapore take 9.7 and 9.4 hours respectively (各自).Students in Finland spend the least time-fewer than 3 hours.
The study shows that students who did more homework scored higher in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA),an academic test for 15-year-olds.For example,Shanghai and Singapore,where students spent much of their time on homework,came in first and second respectively in the PISA math test in 2012.
What's more,teens from wealthier backgrounds were doing 1.6 more hours of homework than their poorer peers.It may"have widened the performance gap between students from different socio-economic backgrounds",the report warns.Poorer students may not have a quiet place to study at home,"it suggests."Their parents may not be able to guide,motivate and support their children on homework because of work responsibilities."
However,the number of hours spent on homework may influence students on an individual level,but it doesn't affect the country level.Factors like have a bigger impact on a country's overall performance.
