One day, a young man was taking a walk with a professor. As they went along, they saw a pair of old shoes lying in the path. They thought it belonged to a poor man who worked in a field nearby. The student said to the professor, “Let us play the man a joke: we will take away his shoes, and conceal ourselves behind those trees and wait to see what will happen when he cannot find them. That must be very interesting.”

　 “My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never make ourselves happy at the cost of the poor. But you can put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery（发现）changes him.”

　　The student did so.

The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path. While putting on his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something hard. He found the coin. Surprise was seen on his face. He found the coin and looked at it again and again. He then looked around, but there was no person. He now put the money into his pocket. When he put on the other shoe, he was surprised again to find the other coin. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and said aloud some thanksgiving words about his family.

　　The student was deeply moved and he said, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget. I feel now the truth of those words, which I never understood before: It is more blessed（神圣的） to give than to receive.”

Do you plan to go to Hong Kong Disneyland with your family this summer? If your dad smokes, you may have to ask him to be careful. From January 1^st, Hong Kong banned（禁止）smoking in most public places.

Have you ever thought of taking a train and having an adventure (奇遇)？Riding the train can be a real adventure.That is how I feel every time I take Amtrak.I often take a four?hour trip to visit my children.Every time I take this trip I never know what will happen.

Last week when I was on the train and over an hour into the train ride，there was a man sitting by himself in the back of the train carrying on a mobile phone conversation— in another language.It was loud and disturbed most of the people on the train.I think it was annoying.

Fortunately I sat next to a wonderful old lady who was taking a two?day trip by train.She said her two daughters were distraught at the thought of her driving for three days to reach her home，although she had no trouble driving.The train ride was the only choice for her.She loved to look out of the window and watch the world go by on the train.

She was fun to talk to and asked me when my children started being parents.That is a very good question.Both of us are old and have children.She asked that same question from time to time.

There are always many people on the train from all walks of life，different countries，and many languages.Riding the train is a great way to increase your knowledge and take in all kinds of cultures.If you get hungry，you can buy food in the food car at any time.If you need to use the restroom there is always one available.

It sure beats driving the car，which has to stop for food and restrooms.And it is better than taking the bus.
