One summer evening as I was cooking dinner, there was a knock at the door. I it and saw a truly bad-looking man. But his voice was as he said, “Good evening. I come to see if you have a for just one night. I came to the market this morning from eastern shore, and there’s no bus till next morning.” He told me he had been searching for a long time but with no . I told him we would find him a bed, but to rest on the porch(走廊). I went inside and prepared dinner. When we were ready, I asked him if he would like to us. “No, thank you. I have plenty.” After I had the dinner, I went out to talk with him. It didn’t take a long time to see that this old man had very large heart in that tiny body. He told me he fished for a living to his daughter, her five children, and her husband, who was hopelessly disabled from an accident. At bedtime, we put a bed in the children’s room for him.
On his next trip, as a gift, he brought a big fish and some other fresh sea food I had never seen. In the years he came to overnight with us, and there was a time he didn’t bring us some fish or vegetables from his garden.
I know our family will always be thankful to have known him, from him we learn to accept the bad without and the good with thanks.

Man has a big brain. He can think and slanguages. Scientists once thought that man isn’t the same as animals b
man can think and learn. They know now that dogs, monkeys and birds can learn, too.
They are beginning to uthat men are different from animals because they can speak. Animals can’t speak. They make much n
when they are afraid, or unhappy. Apes(猿) can learn some things more quickly than man. One or two of them have learned a few words. But they cannot join w
to make sentences. They cannot think l
us because they have no language. Language is a wonderful thing. Man has been a
to build a modern world because he has language. Every child can speak his own language very w
when he is four or five, b
no animals learn to speak.
How do children learn it? Scientists don’t really know whappens inside our body when we speak. They only know that man can speak because he has a brain.
Every year, we celebrate many special days─Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and New Year’s Day. In some countries, there is a special day for playing tricks on others. In North America and parts of Europe, this day is known as April Fool’s Day, and is celebrated on April 1.
Many people believe that the French started April Fool’s Day. Centuries ago, New Year’s Day in Europe was April 1. In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles IX of France moved it to January 1.
Some people did not like this, and chose to keep April 1 as New Year’s Day. Many called these people ‘April fools’ and played jokes and tricks on them. Over time, April 1 became a day to have fun in France. It then spread to England and Scotland, and later, to North America.
On April Fool’s Day, jokes are common. In the United States, for example, a person may move a friend’s clock ahead one hour, or change the sugar and salt. In Scotland, April Fool’s Day lasts for two days. The second day is called ‘Taily Day’─for one’s ‘tail’. On this day, people might secretly put a sign saying ‘kick me’ on a person’s back or behind. Other countries have their own ‘Fool’s Day’. In Spain and Mexico, people play tricks on each other on December 28. In India, it happens on March 31.
In many countries around the world, April 1 is a day of fun. Jokes bring about a lot of laughter, and many shouts of ‘April Fool’!
