Nina and Nora worked in the same office, and they were also neighbours. Nina was a careless girl, and she often lost things. Then she usually went to borrow many things from Nora.
Nora was a kind girl, but she sometimes got tired of lending things to her friend. One Sunday afternoon, Nina knocked at Nora’s front door. When Nora came to open it, Nina said to her, “Hello, Nora, please lend me a bag. I have lost mine. I am going to the shops, and I feel stupid when I haven’t got anything in my hand.”
Nora laughed and answered, “Well, Nina, go down to the end of my garden. You will find a nice wheelbarrow (手推车) in the shelf there. Take that when you go to the shops. Then you will have something in both of your hands.” What’s the relationship (关系) between Nina and Nora?

“I don't like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry,” said Zhang Hua，a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?
One of the biggest things is when someone becomes a parent, he/she likes worrying about things. They worry about everything about you, from the time you were born (出生). They do a lot for you, though something would make you angry, because they care about you and worry about you. They worry about your choice (选择) of friends, the food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get, etc. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.
So how can you make things easier on yourself? It's easier than you think. Just make sure your parents know what you're doing. Get them to know your friends. Phone if you stay somewhere else so that your parents don't call everybody in the phone book looking for you. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Take responsibility (负责任) for what you did. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about theirs with you.
Most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are still practicing being parents and need help from you. Someday, when you become a parent, they may be able to help you how to get on with your children.Parents sometimes look so unfriendly because ______.

In 1933, an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work on Disney's cartoon (动画片) film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash's voice, he said,
“Stop！That's our duck！”
The duck was the nowfamous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the film The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat (水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year, he became a star after an eightminute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy (贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey's eight nephews (侄子).Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn't a goodygoody like Mickey.
In the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966, Donald Duck and his voice disappeared — there were no more new cartoons.
