一位父亲有几个孩子,这些孩子时常发生口角。他丝毫没有办法来劝阻他们,只好让他们看看不合群所带来害处的例子。为了达到这个目的,有一天他叫他们替他拿一捆细柴来。当他们把柴带来时,他便先后地将那捆柴放在每一个孩子的手中,吩咐他们弄断这捆柴。他们一个个尽力去试,总是不能成功。
然后他解开那捆柴,一根根地放在他们手里,如此一来,他们便毫不费力地折断了。于是他就告诉他们说:「孩子们!如果你们大家团结一致,互相帮助,你们就像这捆柴一样,不能被你们的敌人折断;但如果你们自行,你们就将和这些散柴一般,不堪一折了。」
Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarrelling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They each tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.
He next unclosed the faggot, and took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into their hands, on which they broke them easily. He then
addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."

今天放学有点晚,怕妈妈着急担心,我背上书包急匆匆往家赶。
经过一个小卖部的时候,无意中瞥了一眼,眼前的情况让我下意识地张大了嘴巴:一个女孩刚从小卖部买了一根雪糕出门,还不等撕开包装纸,一个男孩冲过来,一把抢了过去,还顺势推倒了女孩。女孩被突如其来的袭击吓坏了,坐在地上哇哇大哭起来。
我脑海中立刻浮现出小时候院子里的小朋友用皮球砸我的情景,于是急忙过了马路,准备安慰女孩几句。此时,那个男孩却又不知从哪里冒了回来,本以为他意识到了自己的错误,是来道歉还东西的。谁料到,小男孩不但没有道歉的意思,还变本加厉地对小女孩发起了攻击:抢她的漫画书、喝她的果汁水,还抢走她的发夹。小女孩变得披头散发,只剩低头抹泪了。
正在这时,男孩的父亲从远处走来,看到这种情况,立刻揪着男孩的耳朵,让他给女孩道歉,男孩不敢违背父命,于是冲着女孩不情愿地说:“对不起!”男孩的父亲一边笨手笨脚地给小女孩梳头,一边命令男孩把女孩的东西还给她,不住地连声道歉。此刻的我无比愤怒,想那女孩一定会生气地指责他们。可出乎意料的是,女孩抬头看了看冒着汗的叔叔和脸红脖子粗的男孩,轻轻地说道:“没关系,他在和我玩儿呢。”眼前这一幕,我惊诧了。
是啊,世上还有什么比一句发自内心的“对不起”和一声简单宽容的“没关系”更可贵呢?小女孩的话,相信我会一直记得。
Dear parents,
“You always say that I am naive. In your eyes, I am always the little girl who will never grow up”. This is my favorite song and also the sound from the bottom of my heart. You made me feel so lucky to be your child. But I find our hearts getting further apart as time goes by.
You strictly forbid me to do entertaining activities even if I finished my homework, such as watching TV or playing computer games. Based on this, I couldn’t get any grade less than A. It is said that genius only means hard-working all one’s life. But I think combining exertion is the best way for learning.
The most important thing to me was that I feel frustrated for having few friends to confide in due to your strict rules. I can’t have a play date, participate in a school play or even choose my own extracurricular activities. Who will accept such a boring and troublesome person? I am just an ordinary girl who can’t stand loneliness, so I always feel contradictory.
On the one hand, I’m grateful to have you in my life, to disappoint you was the least I would do. On the other hand, what you asked for me made me felt like a puppet rather than a real person. I appreciated your efforts to pull me away from a self-indulgent life, but your obsessively extravagant strictness has pushed me into an isolated and insensible one. I need a little freedom so that I will concentrate on something I really interested in.
Father and mother, these words were hid in my deep heart for a long time. I love you, and I believe if you change some harsh rules. I will have a wonderful life.
Best wishes.
Yours, daughter
Dear Mom and Dad,
Although we can only keep in touch with each other by the telephone or the Internet, I wish I could let you know how much I love you and how much I’ve appreciated the things you’ve done for me. It is never too much to say thank you to you, my dear parents.
First and the most important is that thank you for bringing me to this world. During the 20 years, you have done a lot for me, but I haven’t realized how much I love you until I left home to the university. I understand how much effort you have cost to bring me up. Now, I have grown up, I can look after you.
Second, I want to thank you that you give me a good environment to grow up. There is an old saying “Parents are the first teacher to their children”. In my life, you are the typical ones. Because of your good examples I formed the good habit of learning at an early age which benefits my life.
At last, I want to say “thank you” is that you always support my choice. You never forced me to do anything I was not interested in. You told me to pursuit my own dreams without hesitation and you would support me forever. You also told me to how to be a human. Now I become an optimistic and cheerful girl and I feel happy every day.
I really miss you when I am writing this thank you letter. I can’t wait to go home to share more time together with you.You are my most important people in the world and I will love you forever.
Yours,

人是感情动物,也是群居动物,所以人与人之间不免有来往,有交集。有的人把友情,亲情看得高于一切,甚至超过自己的生命。当然,善待他人无可厚非,但不能对他人抱有很大希望,希望越大,失望越大。
我的爸爸喜欢交朋友,只要是他接触过的人,哪怕是天南地北的,他都要结交,无条件请别人吃喝玩乐。对于他身边的人,他更是真诚相待。
在我们家生活极度拮据的情况下,他对朋友依然很奢侈。有时宁愿自己不吃也要让朋友吃好。记得我上二年级时,我们家庭条件很差,姊妹多,爸爸工资又低,别说吃好的了,连粗茶淡饭都不接气了。常常饿着肚子。妈妈为了省下吃的留给我们吃,经常不吃家里的饭,只要稍微改变生活,他都是让他的同事来饱食一顿。他就没想想自己过得什么日子,都食不果腹了,妈妈一说,他就斥责妈妈小气,没有格局。这种情况持续了六七年,直到他的那个同事调走为止。
他调走以后,爸爸认为他会给他联系亲密呢,谁知一走就杳无音信。爸爸没有抱怨他的一点意思。
爸爸不仅对他的同事是这样,而且对他的身边人也是这样。尤其对待亲戚,更是真诚相待。没事时总是带上礼物走亲串友,而且表现得特别慷慨大方。就拿二姨的儿子结婚这事说吧,别人都拿二千,爸爸竟拿五千,要知道五千可是妈妈三个月的工资啊,可他一点儿也不心疼。妈妈对他的`这种做法也是看不惯,但也无奈,就顺其自然吧。
转眼间,我姐姐考上大学了,我们家带升学宴,请了几桌要好的朋友来,谁知他们都没来,就几家亲戚来,来了只随礼1000元,这时爸爸才明白:不要高估自己和任何人的关系。
经过好多事证明,原来的你以为只是你以为,你对别人的好那是你心甘情愿的,别人对你如何,那是看你在他们心目中的位置。不要高估你和任何人的关系,否则会令你大失所望的。
Dear mom:
A: hello!
