Little Peter is now in Beijing with his parents. Little Peter doesn't know much Chinese, but he is trying to learn and speak it. He often tries to speak Chinese to his Chinese friends. Sometimes they don't understand him, because he can't speak Chinese well.
It's Sunday morning. He goes out. He is walking in the street. He is going to the zoo to see the monkeys, but he doesn't know how to get there. He asks a Chinese boy. The boy can't understand him. Then he takes out a pen and some paper. He draws a monkey on it, and shows the picture to the boy. The boy smiles and then shows little Peter the way to the zoo.
John's family was very poor. He had three brothers and four sisters. Their parents loved them very much. When he finished middle school, he got a special present from his father. "Many friends got new clothes. Someone got cars as presents, John said. "I ran home and asked my father what present could get. Father got something out of his pocket. Then he gave it to me. It was a coin!"
"I felt very sad." Father said to me, "Buy a newspaper with the coin, read it carefully and find a job for yourself. Go to the world. The world is yours now." I always think it was a joke. I was unhappy for a long time. Many years later, after I became the manager of a big computer company, I understand my father. My friends got just clothes or even cars. I got the world. It was the best present.
