The New Year
One pleasant New Year morning, Edward rose, washed and dressed himself in haste(匆忙). He wanted to be the first to wish a happy New Year. He looked in every room, and shouted the words of welcome. He ran into the street to repeat them to those he might meet.
When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. His face lit up as he took them. He had wished for along time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.
He left the house with a light heart, intending to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor German family,the father, mother, and three children trembling with cold.
"I wish you a happy New Year," said Edward, as he was gladly(快乐地) passing on.
The man shook his head.
"You do not belong to this country," said Edward.
The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak the language. But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children, as if to say, "These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time."
