Robert and Henry were going home for lunch from school, when, on turning a corner (转角), Robert cried out, "A fight! Let's go and see!"
"No," said Henry, "let's go home quietly and not join in this fight. We have nothing to do with it, and may get into trouble."
"You are a coward, and afraid to go," said Robert, and off he ran.
Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went back to school, as usual. But Robert told all the boys that Henry was a coward.
★Henry knew that true courage (勇气) was far more than that. He knew that he should be afraid of nothing but doing wrong (坏事).
A few days later, Robert was swimming with some schoolmates. Soon he was in danger and cried for help, but nobody answered. All the other boys but Henry got out of the water as fast as they could and did not even try to help him.
Robert was going down fast when Henry threw off his clothes and jumped into the water. He reached Robert just in time. With great hard work and with much danger to himself, he brought Robert to the riverbank and saved his life.
Robert and his schoolmates were sorry for having called Henry a coward. They thought that he had more courage than all of them.
Never be afraid to do good, but always fear to do bad.
Do you know hui nan tian, or ongoing wetweather?
Hui nan tian is a special kind of weather inSoutheast China in spring, when it becomeswarmer and warmer. Before it comes, there usuallyhas been a few cold days, with a temperaturebelow (在……以下) 12℃. After the cold air goesaway, warmer air quickly comes and gets cooler, creating a lot of water in the air. So you can see small water drops on windows and walls.
Ongoing wet weather makes it easy for bacteria (细菌) to grow. Food goes bad easily, clothes stay wet, and sofas can get wet. The things like TV sets and fridges may break down when they get wet inside. It's dangerous because you may get an electric shock (电击) when turning them on.
Wet weather also makes people feel tired and even sick. People can catch a cold easily during this time, as the temperature changes fast.
Although the weather troubles people a lot, for nature, it can be helpful. Thanks to hui nan tian, plants can grow better with enough water and warmer air.

Last week I watched a great movie called Ballerina. It tells me the importance a dream.
Felicie grows up in an orphanage (孤儿院). She is (interest) in ballet at the age of four. She dreams (be) a real ballet dancer. So she and her best friend, Victor, go to Paris. To learn ballet, Felicia tells others that she is Camille and that she is from a rich family. After the teacher (learn) about the truth, he asks Felicie to win a dance competition (比赛) . She can stay there only this way.
Felicie doesn't win. She goes back to orphanage, and keeps practicing every day. The gatekeeper (门卫) sees (she) hard work and takes Felicie back to Paris. Felicie (quick) joins in the competition again. This time, she shows her surprising jump. Felicie spends some (year) working hard, and she finally becomes a real ballet dancer.
If you want to make your dream (come) true, you have to work hard. Feel your dream with your heart, and chase after it. Never give up—that is what the movie has taught me.
