The dog and the shadow dog and its shadow

A dog, with a piece of meat in his mouth, was crossing a stream and saw his own shadow in the water. He thought it was the shadow of another dog, with a piece of meat twice as big as himself. Therefore, he let go of his dog and attacked another dog fiercely, trying to steal his big piece from it. He lost two things: what he caught in the water, because it was a shadow; And his own, because the stream washed it away.

A dog came to a bridge with a piece of meat in his mouth. When he saw his own shadow in the water, he thought it was another dog with a piece of meat twice as big as himself.

. Ants and pigeons

Ants and pigeons

One hot day, an ant was looking for some water. After walking for a while, she came to a spring.

In order to reach the spring, she must climb a blade of grass. While climbing, she slipped and fell into the water.

If a pigeon in a nearby tree didn't see her, she might have drowned. Seeing that the ant was in trouble, the pigeon quickly picked a leaf and threw it into the water next to the struggling ant. The ant went to the leaves and climbed up. Soon it brought her safely to the dry ground.

Just then, a hunter nearby was casting a net to the pigeon, hoping to trap it.

The ant guessed what he was going to do and quickly bit his heel. Feeling pain, the hunter put down the net. The pigeon soon flew to a safe place.

One day, Mark walked home from school. He noticed that the boy in front tripped and dropped all his books, as well as two sweaters, a baseball bat, a glove and a small tape recorder. Mark knelt down to help the boy pick up the scattered items. Because they were on the same road, he helped to carry part of the burden. Walking, Mark found that the boy's name is Bill. He likes video games, baseball and history. He has a lot of trouble in other subjects, and he just broke up with his girlfriend. They arrived at Bill's house first, and Mark was invited into the house to have a coke and watch TV for a while. The afternoon passed happily, with some laughter and some shared chatting, and then Mark went home. They continued to meet near the school, had lunch once or twice together, and then both graduated from junior high school. They ended their brief contact for many years in the same high school. Finally, the long-awaited senior three came. Three weeks before graduation, Bill asked Mark if they could talk.

Bill reminds him of the day when they first met a few years ago. "Have you ever wondered why I brought so many things home that day?" Bill asked. "You see, I cleaned my locker because I didn't want to leave anyone a mess. I have stored some sleeping pills for my mother, and I am going home to commit suicide. But after we spent some time talking and laughing together, I realized that if I committed suicide, I would miss that time and many times to come. So you see, Mark, when you picked up those books that day, you did a lot. You saved my life. "
