　　It was half past five．Everything was ready．All the food was on the table．The sandwiches were on the plates(碟子),and the candles(蜡烛)were on the cake．Kate felt very happy．

　　“We’re ready!” she said, “Where is everyone?” “That’s the doorbell．”said Kate’s mother, “They are here．”

　　Kate ran to the door, and found Bob outside．“Happy birthday!” he said．“Here’s your present．”“Oh, thank you!” said Kate, “Look at the beautiful paper．Can I open it now, or later?” “There’s no time!” laughed Mother．“Here are the twins．”“Happy birthday!” said the twins, and gave her a big red box．

　　But there was no time to think．All her other friends were now outside the door．“Happy birthday to you, Kate!” they said．“Thank you, everyone．Please come in,” said Kate．“Is everyone here?” asked Mother．“No．Where’s Jim?” asked Kate．“I’m here!” said Jim．“Here’s your birthday present．I hope you like it．”Kate opened it．It was a CD．

　　Over the years I’ve been teaching children about a simple but powerful philosophy(哲学)－the ant philosophy．They have an amazing four-part philosophy and here is the first part：ants never give up．　　1　　, they’ll look for another way．

　　　　2　　．You can’t be so simple as to think summer will last forever．So ants gather(收集)their winter food in the middle of summer．Think ahead．

　　The third part is that ants think summer all winter．During the winter, ants tell themselves, “This won’t last long; we’ll soon be out of here．” And, on the first warm day, the ants are out．If it turns cold again, they’ll dive back down．　　3　　．

　　And here’s the last part of the ant philosophy．How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? 　　4　　．What a wonderful philosophy, the “all-you-possible-can” philosophy!

　　Wow, what a great seminar to attend－the ant seminar! Never give up, look ahead, stay active and do all you can．
