One day, a boy found the cocoon(茧) of a butterfly and brought it home. A few days later, the boy saw a small in the cocoon. He sat and watched for several hours as a butterfly tried to make body through that little hole. Suddenly it stopped.
The boy decided to the butterfly, thinking the butterfly might be thankful. He took out a knife and cut the hole to make it . The butterfly came out of the cocoon but it looked a little different. It had a weak body and small, thin . The butterfly didn’t start to fly. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was able to fly.
The boy acted with kindness, he didn’t understand why it could be like this. When a butterfly crawls out of the cocoon, it must try very hard. The hard work of getting out of the cocoon makes its wings strong. It helps the butterfly be to fly. If the butterfly doesn’t have to try hard to get out of the cocoon, its wings won’t get strong enough for it to fly.
In our lives, pain is the key all windows. Without it, there’s no way of life. We can’t difficulties or problems. So, next time you have a problem or difficulty, remember the butterfly. Try hard—then fly!

BEIJING—The sky is gray and air smells strange. It’s another day of smog.
On Saturday， heavy haze(霾) still covered north and east China. Highways were closed and couldn’t take off on time.
The smoggy weather the country’s land from north to south， including Beijing， Hebei， Shandong， and 6 other provinces. People could only see clearly than 50 meters in some areas.
Cities Shanghai and Nanjing have been covered by the gray sky for the past several days. Many walkers in the street had to wear . In the Lukou airport in Nanjing， more than 60 flights were canceled(取消) on Saturday the haze， which also made primary and middle schools and kindergartens stop on Thursday and Friday in Nanjing.
The office worker of Environmental Protection said earlier this week that there were several reasons behind the widespread haze： unpleasant weather conditions making difficult for smog to disappear， automobile exhaust(尾气)， and coal use for winter heating.
To fight pollution， the Chinese government now plans to clean up the air by cutting coal use， some factories， and removing 6 million old cars from the roads.
“We must face up to the facts，” said Yan Naiqiang， a professor of environmental science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. “The treatment of smog will be a long fight. From now on， if we use buses or cars less and do more riding， we believe a clear sky is not a faraway dream.”
