                                                  Just Around the Corner
           I have a friend named Jim.  He lived just around the corner from me,  The days go by, and before
    I know it, a year is gone.  I never see my old friend's face.  He knows that I miss him too,  as I used to
    ring his bell,  and he rang mine,  in the old days.   If  we were younger, things might be different, but now, we are busy, tired men.  We are even tired of playing games.
           "Tomorrow," I said to myself, "I will call on Jim just to show that I'm thinking of him. " But tomorrow
    comes and tomorrow goes,  and the distance between us grows and grows.
           Around the corner! His house is only three miles away from here. One day a postman came.  "Here's a telegram (电报) for you, sir," he said.  I opened it and was surprised.  "Jim died today. " And that's what we get in the end.  Around the corner,  a friend is gone.
           So remember: If you love your friends and family, tell them and show your love to them.  When you
    think that it is the right time, it might be too late.

    　　The teacher asks the President if he would like to lead the class in the discussion of the word“tragedy”. So the President asks the class for an example of a“tragedy”.

    　　One little boy stands up and says,“If my best friend, who lives next door, is playing in the street and a car comes along and runs him over, that would be a tragedy.”

    　　“No,”says Bush,“that would be an accident.”

    　　A little girl puts up her hand,“If a school bus carrying 50 children drove off a cliff(悬崖), killing everyone in the bus, that would be a tragedy.”

    　　“I am afraid not,”explains the President.“That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS(损失).”

    　　The room goes quiet. No other children answer. President Bush looks around the mom.“Is not there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?”

    　　At last, in the back of the room, a boy named Johnny puts up his hand. In a quiet voice he says,“If Air Force One, carrying you and Mrs Bush, was hit by a missile(导弹) and blown up to pieces, that would be a tragedy.”

    　　“Right,”exclaims(大叫)Bush,“that is right, and can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?”
