　　Once there was a boy．He loved sweets very much．He always asked his father for sweets．

　　The boy’s father thought hard about how to stop the child from asking for so many sweets．A great man lived nearby．The boy’s father decided to take the boy to him．He might be able to make the child give up sweets．

　　So they went to the great man．The father asked the great man to help him．But the great man liked sweets himself．He told the father to bring his son back after a month．

　　During the month, the great man tried to give up eating sweets．At last he did it．When the boy and his father returned after a month, the great man had a talk with the boy．From then on, the boy did not ask for sweets any more．

　　The boy’s father felt surprised, “Why didn’t you ask my son to give up sweets when we came to you a month ago?” The man answered, “How could I ask a boy to give up sweets when I loved sweets myself?In the last month I gave up eating sweets．”

　　A person’s example is always stronger than words．We should not ask others to do what we can’t do ourselves．

　　Lindsay hasn't felt like herself these days．Her friends have noticed it, too．Kia was surprised when Lindsay refused her invitation to go shopping last Saturday．There was really no reason(理由)not to go, but Lindsay just didn't feel like it．Instead, she spent most of Saturday sleeping．

　　But staying in more than usual isn't the only change in Lindsay．She's always been a really good student, but over the past few months she’s not done so well, and she has trouble putting her heart in her study．She's even failed some exams, and she hasn't yet handed in her homework．

　　When she gets home from practice, she's not hungry for dinner．Though she usually eats a little something with her family at last, she just doesn't have much of an appetite(胃口)－and nothing seems to taste as good as it used to．After dinner, Lindsay goes to her room, does a bit of homework, and goes to bed．She's not even in the mood(心情)to talk on the phone with her friends．

　　When her mother asks her what's wrong, Lindsay feels like crying but doesn't know why．Everything seems wrong, yet nothing too bad has happened．Lindsay just feels sad all the time and can't get away from it．Lindsay may not realize it yet, but she is depressed(郁闷的)．

　　I have a love-hate feeling with 8 o'clock classes．I like to get started that early, but most students don't．They usually came in late and looked sleepy at that hour．

　　One day I was really angry at it．I was excited about the history lesson, but no one else seemed to be．I wrote things on the blackboard．I moved around the room．I told stories．I tried humor(幽默)．It was useless．Their looks didn’t seem to change．I was frustrated．

　　I forgot to keep time．I was going to talk more when I looked down at my watch．It was already two minutes past the end of class．So I just ended suddenly and soon the students began to pick up their book bags and rushed out the door on their way to another class．

　　While I was watching them leaving, I put away my own books, notes and papers．I took them up and stepped out into the hall．I was tired and a bit sad．I had put everything I knew into that class and it had not seemed to work．Then, as I started across the hall to my nearby office, a student came out the back door of the classroom and caught up with me．

　　Randy sat at the back of the classroom．I thought he wanted to ask why I didn't correct their exam papers or maybe he wanted to ask for leave or…It was none of that．With his eyes sparkling(闪烁), Randy said, “This is the first time I've not wanted a college class to end．”

　　The tiredness lifted．I had done better than I thought．I don’t know if Randy will ever understand how much he did for me that day．

　　The Year of the Dog has gone and this year we have pigs．What words can we think of for pigs?Some bad words maybe, like silly, dirty, greedy(贪婪)…But, are these true?

　　When we see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or behind dirty fences．But pigs also want to be clean if they can．Pigs have no sweat glands(汗腺), SO they have to get cool in water when they feel hot．

　　If people are greedy, we say they“pig out”．Yes, pigs love eating a lot．But they are useful to people．People not only eat their meat．but also use other parts of pigs．Pig skin is used for glue and shoes．The hair can be used to make brushes．Sometimes, pigs are even used to make medicine．

　　“He is as silly as a pig!”This expression is wrong．Pigs are very smart animals．Among all animals．they are the third cleverest-monkeys, dolphins and pigs．Scientists think the training of pigs is easier than the training of dogs and cats．Pigs have a very good sense of smell(嗅觉)．They can find things nearby or faraway．They can also help the police to－sniff－out drugs(毒品)at an airport or at a train station 1

　　Different weather makes people feel different．It influences(影响)health, intelligence(智力)and feelings．

　　In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States．People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month．In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times．People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March．

　　The weather can also influence intelligence．For example, in a 1983 report by scientists．IQ(智商)of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10％ lower．The wind can help people have more intelligence．Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower．Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year(July and August)．

　　Weather also has a strong influence on people'8 feelings．Winter may be a bad time for thin people．They usually feel cold during these months．They might feel unhappy during cold weather．But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer．At about 18℃, people become stronger．

　　Low air pressure(气压)may make people forgetful．People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low－pressure days．People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃．

　　Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today?It may be the weather's problem．
