Jack went to a barber's shop and had his hair cut, but when he came out, he was not happy with the result(结果). When his friend Bob saw him, he laughed and said, "What has happened to your hair, Jack?"
Jack said, "I tried a new barber's shop today, because I wasn't quite satisfied with my old one, but this one seems even worse."
Bob agreed(同意). "Yes, I think you're right, Jack. Now I'll tell you what to do when you go into a barber's shop next time: look at all the barber's hair, find out whose hair looks worst, and then go straight to him."
"Why shall I go to him?" Jack asked. "But that would be foolish!"
"Oh, no, it wouldn't," answered Bob. "Who cut that man's hair? Just think it. He couldn't cut it himself, could he? Another of the barbers cut it. So you know he can't be the worst barber."

Do you believe in love at the first sight? Many people answer "No, we don't", but I say I do.why? I'll tell you my story.

    From childhood, I .like people with blue eyes. I had a few dolls and I painted their eyes blue. I was really very happy with my blue-eyed dolls. Time rushes by quickly, and soon I was not a child any more. I had finished my studies as I was 20.

    I liked to drive my father's old car. Once I went to a nearby town .I was busy that day.I left my car near the office where I had to go. In a few minutes, I came back and a young policeman was waiting for me near my car. I was not happy to see him. He tried to explain that I had parked my car in the wrong place, but I couldn't pay my attention to his words. I had to stare at his beautiful blue eyes. He repeated his words but I did not bear him well. He became serious and began to speak in a loud voice.I paid him the fine(罚款)and I said to him" Your eyes are so nice."

    He smiled and said goodbye to me.

    In the evening this blue-eyed policeman called me up. The following day we went to the cinema. After that, my story has a happy ending. We married and we now live happily together.
