When I was about six years old, my brother David and I visited our aunt, Mary. We stayed in her house for a night. David was only 4 years old, and was still of the dark., so Mary left the hall light on when we slept.
However, David the grey moths(蛾) flying around the hall light. He asked Mary to make the moths go away. When she asked , she simply said, “Because they are ugly and scary, I don’t like them.” Mary laughed and said, “Being ugly outside doesn’t not being beautiful inside. In fact, moths are one of the most beautiful animals in the animal world.
“Once, the angels (天使) were . They were sad because it was raining heavily. The little moths hated to see others so sad. They decided to make a rainbow(彩虹) to cheer up the angels. They thought if the butterflies(蝴蝶) , they could make a beautiful rainbow together.
“Then one of the moths went to ask the butterflies for help. But the butterflies didn’t want to any of their colors, so the moths decided to make a rainbow themselves. They beat their wings very hard and the colors on them made a rainbow. They kept giving a little more and a little more the rainbow went across the sky. They had given away all their colors except grey, which didn’t match the beautiful rainbow.
“Then the once-colorful moths became . The angles saw the rainbow and smiled…” My brother went to sleep with that story and hasn’t feared months since then.

Dear Pet,
Without knowing more about you, it’s hard for me to give you some good advice.
But first, I am sure that you are39 . You said that nobody would care if you left home. What about your 40 ? And other family members? It seems that you are very41 . You’d better go to a doctor or talk 42 your parents. They will be able to help you.
Second, I’m sure there’s someone else in your class who feels lonely, 43 . You never know 44 other people feel. Try to make friends with your classmates. And you could45 a club to meet new people and make friends, too.
You46 find happiness in yourself. So my47 advice is to write a list of all the good things about yourself, learn to like yourself, and then48 will see your confidence (信心)and like you, too.
