    　　Ever since I was a small girl in school, I’ve been aware of what the school textbooks say about Indians．I am an Indian and, naturally, am interested in what the schools teach about natives of this land．

    　　One day, I read that a delicacy(美味)of American Indian people was dried fish, which, according to the textbook, tasted“like an old shoe, or was like chewing on dried leather．”To this day I can remember my surprise, my anger and my sadness at reading these words．We called this wind-dried fish“sleet-shus”, and to us, it was our favorite delicacy and, indeed, did not taste like shoe leather, and didn’t rot our teeth and bring about the various dietary problem that trouble Indian people in modern times．It took many hours of long and hard work to cure the fish in just this particular fashion．Early fur traders and other non-Indians must have agreed, for they often had this food as they traveled around isolated areas．

    　　I brought the textbook home to show it to my father, leader of my tribe at that time．On this particular day, he told me in his wise and modest manner that the outside world did not understand Indian people, and that I should not let it prevent me from learning the good parts of education．

    　　At a later time in my life, I had brought a group of Indian people to the country fairgrounds to sell Indian-made arts and crafts．My group was excited to make some money by selling Indian handicrafts．We thanked the man who showed us to our booth and told him it was nice of him to remember the people of the Indian community．The man expanded a little and remarked that he liked Indian people．“In fact,”he went on to state,“we are bringing some professional Indians to do the show!”

    　　As we stood there in shock, listening to this uninformed outsider, I looked at my dear Indian companion, an eighty-year-old woman who could well remember the great chiefs of the tribe who once owned all the land of this country before the white man came bringing“civilization”, which included diseases and pollution．My friend said not a word, but took the hurt as Indian people have done for many year．

    　　Of course, we all knew that the“professional Indian”were not Indians at all, but dressed in leather and dancing their own dances．And, anyway, how does one become a“professional Indian”?

    Hans was an honest fellow with a funny round good-humored face. Living alone, every day he worked in his garden. In all the countryside there was no garden so lovely as his. All sorts of flowers grew there, blooming in their proper order as the months went by, one flower taking another flower’s place, so that there were always beautiful things to see, and pleasant odors to smell.
    Hans had many friends, the most devoted being the Miller. So devoted was the rich Miller to Hans that he’d never go by his garden without plucking a large bunch of flowers or a handful of sweet herbs, or filling his pockets with fruits. The Miller used to talk about noble ideas, and Hans nodded and smiled, feeling proud of having such a friend.
    The neighbors thought it strange that the rich Miller never gave Hans anything in return, though he had hundreds of sacks of flour, many cows and sheep, but Hans never troubled his head about these, and nothing gave him greater pleasure than to listen to all the wonderful things about the unselfishness of true friendship.
    In spring, summer, and autumn Hans was very happy, but when winter came, and he had no fruit or flowers to sell, he suffered from cold and hunger. Though extremely lonely, the Miller never came to see him then.
    “There’s no good in going to see Hans while the snow lasts.” The Miller said to his wife, “When people are in trouble they shouldn’t be bothered. So I’ll wait till the spring comes when he’s happy to give me flowers.”
    “You’re certainly very thoughtful,” answered his wife, “It’s quite a treat to hear you talk about friendship.”
    “Couldn’t we ask Hans up here?” said their son. “I’ll give him half my meal, and show him my white rabbits.”
    “How silly you are!” cried the Miller. “I really don’t know what’s the use of sending you to school. If Hans came up here, and saw our warm fire, our good supper, and our red wine, he might get envious, and envy is a most terrible thing, and would spoil anybody’s nature. I am his best friend, and I’ll always watch over him, and see that he’s not led into any temptation. Besides, if Hans came here, he might ask me for some flour. Flour is one thing, and friendship is another, and they shouldn’t be confused. The words are spelt differently, and mean quite different things. Everybody can see that.” He looked seriously at his son, who felt so ashamed that he hung his head down, and grew quite scared, and began to cry into his tea.
    Spring coming, the Miller went down to see Hans. Again he talked about friendship. “Hans, friendship never forgets. I’m afraid you don’t understand the poetry of life. See, how lovely your roses are!”
    Hans said he wanted to sell them in the market to buy back his things which were sold during the hard time of the winter.
    “I’ll give you many good things. I think being generous is the base of friendship.” said the Miller. “And now, as I’ll give you many good things, I’m sure you’d like to give me some flowers in return. Here’s the basket, and fill it quite full.”
    Poor Hans was afraid to say anything. He ran and plucked all his pretty roses, and filled the Miller’s basket, imagining the many good things promised by the Miller.
    The next day he heard the Miller calling: “Hans, would you mind carrying this sack of flour for me to market?”
    “I’m sorry, but I am really very busy today.”
    “Well,” said the Miller, “considering that I’m going to give you my things, it’s rather unfriendly of you to refuse. Upon my word, you mustn’t mind my speaking quite plainly to you.”
    Poor Hans was driven by his friendship theory to work hard for his best friend, leaving his garden dry and wasted.
    One evening Hans was sitting by fire when the Miller came.
    “Hans,” cried the Miller, “My little boy has fallen off a ladder and hurt himself, and I’m going for the Doctor. But he lives so far away, and it’s such a bad windy night. It has just occurred to me that you can go instead of me. You know I’m going to give you my good things, so you should do something for me in return.”
    “Certainly,” cried Hans. He struggled into the stormy night, and got the doctor to ride a horse to the Miller’s house in time to save the boy. However, Hans got lost in the darkness, and wandered off into a deep pool, drowned.
    At Hans’ funeral, the Miller said, “I was his best friend. I should walk at the head of the procession.” Every now and then he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.
    【小题1】From the passage, we can learn that Hans ___________.

    A．was extremely wise and noble
    B．was highly valued by the Miller
    C．admired the Miller very much
    D．had a strong desire for fortune

    B．“Interest is long-lasting while friendship is flexible.”
    C．“I’m afraid you don’t understand the poetry of life.”
