Dear all,
I am writing this letter to express my gratitude to my parents for teaching me to be positive and to be strong. “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” is the opinion held by Aristotle. It is the experience of our forefathers, however, it is correct even today, including my parenting.
It is widely acknowledged that parenting, which can also be explained as family education, is of great significance in our character forming and manner acquiring. To be more detailed, setting good examples instead of just giving precepts is the greatest achievement of my parents. They not only taught me to think for the best and prepare for the worst; they taught me how. They not only told me the benefits of being strong in mind; they proved it. All those things require huge amount of time and work, but it’s worth it.
Without my parents’ contribution and education, I would never be who I am now. But most importantly, I would never be more gratitude to them than today.
Yours,
XXX
一位自命不凡,且刚被任命做大清真寺说教者的人,跟麦曾阿凡提开玩笑说:“麦曾先生,自您担任麦曾以来,共给几位说教者的葬礼诵经了?”
“这回加上您一共五位!”阿凡提回答说。
Dear Mary,
You said in your letter that many of your classmates wore fashionableclothes, but you couldn't afford them so you felt very depressed. There are dif-ferent views on people's clothes. The followings are my ideas:
Firstly, you shouldn't put too much emphasis on physical appearance.
Remember that the most important task for you today is to concentrate on yourstudies. No matter what you wear, you will really look your best when youcome out first in your examinations.
Secondly, you should understand that it is a fine virtue to live in fru-gality. Just as a famous saying goes, Frugality is the mother of virtue.
Since your family can't provide you with enough money to buy fashionableclothes, it is all the more necessary for you to try to lighten the financialburden of your family. And you will find the virtue of frugality benefit youa lot in your future life.
I hope you understand what I mean. Hope you will take a positive attitudetowards life and will be happy again when you read my letter.
Yours,
Anne
鹿鼓足勇气来到熊家里,问:“熊,说吧,我在你的名单上吗?”
“是啊,”熊说,“你的名字在我的名单上。”
鹿失魂落魄,转身离开。两天后,大家发现了鹿的尸体。
森林居民心里的恐惧日益增长,大家都在问同一个问题:名单上还有谁?
野猪是第一个失去耐心的。它找到熊,问自己的.名字是否也在名单上。
“是的,”熊回答,“你也在上面。”
野猪吓破了胆,匆匆告别。两天后,它也死了。
整个森林被恐怖笼罩,只有兔子还敢找熊。
“熊,我在名单上吗?”
“是的,你也在上面。”
“那我再问一下,”兔子说,“你能把我划掉吗?”
“好的,没问题。”
阿凡提有一位朋友,常向阿凡提借一些零钱不还。一天,他又来向阿凡提借零钱。
阿凡提问他:“朋友,你向我借这点零钱,到时我不好意思向你张口索要是吗?”
“对!”朋友回答。
“那么你又不缺胳膊、不缺腿,不好意思向我借整钱是吗?”
“对!”朋友回答。
“那好,从今以后我们俩都不要再干这种不好意思的事了!”阿凡提说道。
“我有一只小毛驴,天天最爱骑……”是谁在唱歌呀?噢,原来是大名鼎鼎聪明的阿凡提来了!
阿凡提不仅聪明,还很善良。由于经常帮助穷苦的百姓,他的`名气越来越大。皇帝听说了阿凡提的大名,便把他召进皇宫,想当面考考他。大殿上,皇帝说道:“阿凡提,我来出个题目,如果你答不出来,我就***掉你!”“好的,陛下。”阿凡提行了个礼。皇帝问道:“天上有多少颗星星?”
“和您的胡子一样多。”“我的胡子又是多少?”皇帝又问。阿凡提指着小毛驴:“和它尾巴上的毛一样多。”大臣们都笑起来,皇帝气的胡子直翘:“来人,把阿凡提绑起来,***头!”阿凡提一点儿也不怕,笑着说:“我早知道今天会死,而且还知道您哪天死呢。”皇帝吓了一跳,问:“这是真的?”“当然!”阿凡提面不改色地说。“你快说,我是哪一天死?”皇帝又急又怕。“你比我晚死一天。我今天死了,你明天就要死了。”阿凡提回答。“天哪!”皇帝顿时浑身发抖,大喊着:“来人,快,把阿凡提放了!”阿凡提啊,你可别死呀!不然我也没命了!你再活一万年,那么我就能活一万年零一天了。“皇帝哀求道。”我的金银财宝任你取!“皇帝说完,命人搬出宝库里的机箱财宝,送给阿凡提。后来,阿凡提把财宝送给穷苦的百姓。大家听说这件事,更加敬佩他了。
国王派一位丞相和阿凡提到外地办事。阿凡提骑的是一匹黑色的老马,丞相的坐骑是一匹白色的骏马。
到了傍晚,他俩来到一个前不着村后不着店的野外,决定露宿。丞相对阿凡提说:“阿凡提,这里常有野兽出没,还可能会有强盗,今晚请你守住这两匹马。”
“不,我不守,你自己守吧。我的马是黑色的,夜里野兽和强盗根本看不见它。”阿凡提说。
丞相一听阿凡提说得有道理,便对他说:“如果那样,我们俩把马调换一下,我的这匹白色骏马归你,你的黑色老马归我。”
阿凡提高兴地与丞相调换了马,然后对丞相说:“太好了,今夜就请您守护这两匹马吧!”
“为什么?”丞相问。
“现在您的马是黑色的了,这黑咕隆咚的深夜,您也看不清您的马是被狼吃了还是强盗盗走了。我现在的马是白色的,我一眼就能看清它是否安在。”阿凡提说完便睡觉去了。丞相只好守了一夜。
