Once there was a boy and his little sister living in a small village. The boy was good—looking but his sister was not. One day they found a mirror(镜子)and they saw what they looked like for the first time. The boy was very pleased and he said to his sister, "How handsome I am! I look nicer than you!" The girl didn't like what her brother said and gave him a hard push. "Go away!" she said angrily.
Their father saw what was happening, He went up to them and said to the boy, "You must always be good as well as look good." Then the father said to the girl, "My dear, if you help everyone and do your best to please(使愉快)them, everyone will love you. It doesn't matter that you are not as good— looking as your brother. "
