Three small fish lived in the sea. When they were very young, their parents died. They had each other day after day. Finally, they grew up and dared to swim deeper and further.
One morning, the three fish were to a shallow(浅) water by a big wave. A small boat was taken there, too. It was hard for the fish back to the sea because the boat was right in front of them. The largest fish realized that they were in danger, and said they had to find a way to leave there as as possible. The second largest fish agreed with his elder brother, the youngest one did not. He said that there was much water for their activities, so he would not worry at all and still swam around happily.
At last, the largest fish returned to the sea by over the lowest part of the boat. The second largest fish also 7 in joining his elder brother in side of water. But the youngest one didn’t follow them and still swam joyfully.
Two hours later, when the sun rose up, the water in the small shallow corner . The fish who did not try to the sea died of lack of water.

Reuben, a 12-year-old boy, saw something in a shop window. But the price—five dollars—was far beyond his means. He couldn’t ask his parents the money. His father made a living through in Bay Roberts. His mother, Dora, tried hard to feed and clothe their five children.
Hesitating(犹豫) for a few minutes, he opened the and talked to the shopkeeper. “…I don’t have the money right now. Can you please it for me?” “I’ll try,” the shopkeeper smiled.
Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out. Hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, he suddenly had a(an) . He ran towards the sound and stopped at a construction site(建筑工地).Reuben knew he could collect the discarded nails(被丢弃的钉子) and sell them to the factory for five cents .
He looked for nails until sunset. Then he ran to the factory and sold them. Reuben tightly clutched(握紧) the five-cent pieces and ran home. He found a rusty iron can and dropped his inside. Then he rushed into the barn(谷仓) near his house and hid it. It was dinner time when Reuben got home. His father sat at the big kitchen table, working on a fishnet. Dora was at the kitchen stove, ready to serve as Reuben took his place at the table. Looking at his mother, Reuben smiled.
Every day after school, Reuben searched the town, trying to finish his task. Finally, the time had come! He ran into the barn, opened the can, poured the coins out and began to count.
He still needed 20 cents! He had to sell four nails the day ended. Rushing to the town, Reuben searched every corner. It was getting dark when Reuben arrived at the factory. The man at the factory was about to .
“Please, mister. I have to sell these nails now—please.”
“Why do you need this money so ?”
“It’s a secret.”
The man took the nails, reached into his pocket and put four coins in Reuben’s hand.
Clutching the can tightly, Reuben for the shop.
“I have the ” he solemnly told the owner.
Back home, his mother was cleaning the kitchen. “Here, Mum! Here!” Reuben shouted as he ran to her. He a small box in her roughened hand. She opened it carefully. A blue-velvet jewel box appeared. Dora lifted the lid(盖子). Tears began to blur(模糊) her vision. In gold lettering on a small, almond-shaped brooch(胸针) was the word Mother.

When I entered the classroom, our teacher announced we were going to have a math test. I looked at the paper full of what looked like hieroglyphs (象形文字) to me and began to . I did my best that I could, and then left my to put my paper in a pile (摞) on the front desk with a sigh (叹息).
I returned and then an idea came to my mind. I checked where the teacher was I made my move. She was walking in the of the room with hands behind her back. I went back to the pile of test papers that already handed in and when I picked up my paper I also got the paper below it. When I looked at the paper I had taken, I discovered it was the work of the girl in our class, I copied her answers to my paper.
The next day when I got back my paper, I was to see an “F” on it. After class I went to the girl and said to her, “That math test was difficult and I it. I guess we need to study more.” Her reply was, “Not me, I got every question right and got an ‘A’ ”.
The teacher knew about it. She didn’t blame me in front of the class and me to keep my dignity (尊严). I made a to myself never to cheat (作弊) again. I would remember to always be honest in the things I do.
