A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present.On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shining car.“Is this your car, Paul?” he asked.
Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.“You mean your brother gave it to you and it cost you nothing? Boy, I wish…”he hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for.He was going to wish he had a brother like that.But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy ________, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?”
“Oh yes, I’d love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little.He thought he knew what the boy wanted.He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car.But Paul was wrong again.“Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps.Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast.He was carrying his little crippled brother.He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs.His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent.And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.

If you want to learn something about birds please read the book“1001 Questions Answered About Birds”. But which chapter or part of the book you’d better read depends on what you are interested in. If you are interested in how many kinds of birds there are, please read The Classification of Birds. If you want to know something about where some kinds exist, where other kinds exist and the spreading out of birds’ existing, do read The Distribution of Birds. Leaving one place for another is called migration. “Internal”refers to the inside while “external”refers to the outside. If you catch a bird and put a mark on it before setting it free, it is bird banding. People make and put boxes in trees for birds to stay in certain woods, which is bird attracting. To protect birds from being harmed is called bird conservation. Stories about unknown secrets are mythology while old and general accepted ways are called tradition. To study how birds get used to their surroundings is to study their adaptability.

Right and Wrong
Suppose you work in a library, checking people's books as they leave, and a friend asks you to let him steal a hard-to-find reference book that he wants to own.
You might hesitate (犹豫)to agree for various reasons. You might be afraid that he'll be caught, and that both you and he will then get into trouble. You might want the book to stay in the library so that you can read it yourself.
But you may also think that what he proposes is wrong -- that he shouldn't do it and you shouldn't help him. If you think that , what does it mean, and what, if anything, makes it true?
To say it's wrong is not just to say it's against the rules. There can be bad rules which stop what isn't wrong -- like a company rule against criticizing the boss. A rule can also be bad because it requires something that is wrong -- like a law that looks down upon black people in hotels and restaurants. The ideas of wrong and right are different from the ideas of what is and is not against the rules.
If you think it would be wrong to help your friend steal the book, then you will feel uncomfortable about doing it" in some way you won't want to do it, even if you are also unwilling to refuse to help a friend. Where does the desire not to do it come from? What is its motive (动机)behind it?
There are various ways in which something can be wrong, but in this case, if you had to explain it, you'd probably say that it would be unfair to other users of the library. They may be just as interested in the book as your friend is, but read it in the reference room, where anyone who needs it can find it.
These thoughts have to do with effects on others -- not necessarily effects on their feelings, since they may never find out about it, but some kind of damage. In general, the thought that something is wrong depends on its impact (影响力)not just on the person who does it but on other people.

A.he is afraid that his friend might get into trouble.
B.he himself might get into trouble.
C.he believes it is wrong to help one’s poor friend.
D.he wants to read the book himself.

A.Because those rules are said to be strongly negative(否定).
B.Because he wants to show that rules are not the criteria(标准)for judging right or wrong.
C.Because those rules are made in order to stop what is wrong.
D.Because he wants to support the argument that stealing a book is not a crime.

Last weekend I was out walking with my dog. She loves wandering around and seeing we meet, so it becomes a social walk rather than an exercise.
