Stitch after stitch,Amy is embroidering(刺绣)her hand﹣made napkin.
"Well,Amy,how are you getting on?" cried Lizzy,whose (1) seemed to fly over her work.
"Not very fast,"replied quiet little Amy.Meanwhile, she didn't (2) her eyes,"I have almost finished one side."
"One side!"said Lizzy,with an unpleasant laugh,"Why,we both began sewing(缝制)at the same time,and I'm now at the fourth side of mine!"
"I know that I am (3) ,but I'll try to be steady(稳的),and to do my best."said the little girl,as she went on with her work.
"As I sew so fast,"cried Lizzy,"I'm sure to have finished my napkin (4) before the bell rings for dinner.I'll just run for a minute to the garden,to see if the roses are out:"﹣so, leaving her work on a chair,Lizzy (5) out of the room.
Amy longed for the fresh air and the flowers,but her work must first be done.Steadily she laid down her broad hem. and had finished the (6) side of her napkin before her sister came back.
"Ah,you slow little thing!"cried Lizzy."You will (7) get up to me.I'll have time to go to my room and put up my new picture on the wall."
Off went joyful little Lizzy,Amy went on with her work.Before her sister (8) the room again,the third side of her napkin was done.
"Had you not better finish your sewing?"said Amy."It must be near the time for (9) ."
"Oh! I can finish it in two minutes,only I want to read that storybook,which Tom told us was so funny."
"What if you (10) ?"
"No fear of that!"cried Lizzy,"No one is so likely to be as a slow little thing like you!
Poor Amy made no (11) , quietly she worked on.Lizzy was soon deep in her story and she forgot all about her (12) ,till suddenly the sound of the bell woke her up.
"Can it be dinner﹣time"she cried."Oh dear,and my napkin is not hemmed!And yours﹣"
"It is (13) finished,"said Amy,as she quietly put it away.
"This is much like 'The Hare and the Tortoise',the faster,but not the winner,"thought Lizzy,who,though proud,had enough (14) to take a lesson:The quick,proud may have the (15) ,but the quiet,steady may do more in the end.

When I crossed a small road on my first day in Kolkata, I was surprised because I heard a bell-not a horn (喇叭), It was a tiny man pulling a rickshaw(黄包车), He stopped and picked up two children from the front door of their house and pulled them to school. For many people, the rickshaw in Kolkata has many advantages. When the traffic is bad, rickshaws find a way through the traffic. If you miss your bus and there aren't any taxis, you can always find a rickshaw in Kolkata. Rickshaws are from your house to the market and waits for you. Then he loads (装载)all your things, drops you off outside your home and helps you unload, No other type of public transport offers this kind of service.
From June to September, Kolkata gets heavy rain. Sometimes it rains for 48 hours without a break. In some parts of the city, the roads flood (水淹), and anything with an engine(发动机) is useless, But the rickshaw drivers never stop working, even with water all around them.
But not everyone thinks rickshaws are a good thing. The local government wants to ban rickshaws. They believe it is wrong for one man to pull another person when there is modern transport in the city. However, there is a problem with this plan. Many of the rickshaw drivers come from the countryside. The only job they can find in Kolkata is pulling a rickshaw, If the city bans rickshaws, these men won't have a job. So for the moment, the people of Kolkata still go by rickshaw.
