    People bury treasure to stop other people from taking it. They choose a quiet place, dig a deep hole and bury the treasure in it. Then they make a map of where the treasure is or write down other clues（线索）that will help them or someone else to find it again.
    In Britain a few years ago, a writer wrote about some treasure that he had buried. He put clues in the story to help readers find it. Thousands of people hunted for the treasure. They dug holes all over Britain, hoping to find it.
    One of the most popular adventure stories ever written is Robert Louis Stephenson's “Treasured Island”, an exciting story about a young boy, Jim Hawkins, who is captured by pirates (海盗) and later finds some buried treasure.
    Then there is the true story about a man who had to travel overseas for a year. He did not trust banks, so he buried his life savings in a park. Then he went away. On his return, he went straight to the park. But the park was no longer there. In its place there was a huge building.
    And then there was the man who buried his savings, all in bank notes, in a waterproof（防水的）bag. When he dug it up years later, there was nothing left. Worms and insects had eaten the bag and everything in it.
    And of course, these are stories about people who bury things and either forget where they have buried them or lose the map.
    Although it is true that people sometimes lose their money because a bank fails, banks are still the safest place to keep our savings and treasures.

    B．is about the adventures of Jim Hawkins.

    　　In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animal．This sometimes happens with humans also．But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people．I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat．And I have discovered that it makes them happy．

    　　From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, bur sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily．They don’t get to see this soft side of others often, we try bevery way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending．But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them．

    　　Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual．People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning(按喇叭)or even shouting at me．At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty fore years of driving．I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed．

    　　No more angry shouts and no more horns!

    　　When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here．I am weak and doing the best I can．” And everyone understoof．Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass．They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic．But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak．

    　　Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way．But those are and far between．More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared．
