An old man was fishing on the bank of a river. A child came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn’t take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old msn saw that the child was very cute(可爱), and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the child shook（摇） her head. The old man was surprised and asked, “Why don’t you want the fish?”
The child answered, “I want the fishing rod(竿) in your hands.”
The old man asked, “Why do you want the rod?”
“It doesn’t take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won’t be afraid of not having any more fish to eat.”
I think you will certainly say that the child is very smart. Wrong! If she doesn’t know how to fish, she can not have fish to eat, even though she has the fishing rod. It’s useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important, not the fishing rod.
Too many people think that if they have a “fishing rod” in their life, they will no longer fear(害怕)the wind and rain. They are just like the child, who thought that if she had a fishing rod, she would have fish to eat.

| C．a pool | D．a stream |
Because she didn’t like fish
Because she wanted his fishing rod
Because the old man had few fish
Because she wanted to learn fishing skills
| A．smart | B．hardworking |
| C．silly(傻的) | D．creative(有创造力的) |
| A．if you have a “fishing rod” in your life, you won’t be afraid of anything. |
| B．If you have a fishing rod, you’ll have a lot of fish to eat |
| C．“fishing skills” are more important than “the fishing rod” in life. |
| D．“the fishing rod” is more important than the fish that people catch |
| A．The Fishing Rod | B．The Fishing Man |
| C．The Fishing Girl | D．The fishing Experience |
Friends are very important in our everyday life. Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Certainly, sometimes we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are just the same. Friends sometimes don’t get on well. That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will make it up and become friends again.
Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much but we can call them or write to them. We can also make new friends. It is encouraging to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.
There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t. Why? Friends can make us feel happy. Being happy helps you stay well. If someone cares about you, you will take better care of yourself.
