Victor's hobby was collecting stamps. He had stamps from many countries, like England, Canada and China. On his birthday, can you guess what people gave him? That's right~stamps.
Victor's favourite stamps came from France. He had every stamp from 1954 to 2004 except one. That was a 1974 special edition. It was very hard to find.
He looked for it everywhere. He asked his friends and relatives to help him. But nobody could find the stamp. It made Victor very sad. "Don't worry. Never give up!" His father said to him, "If you have enough patience, you'll find it one day." "I hope so" Victor said.
Victor also liked writing. He had a penfriend called Philip in France. They wrote to each other every month. Philip usually used new stamps to send letters. Sometimes, his mother gave him stamps to use. Once Philip's mother gave him a big, green stamp. It looked old. When Victor received the letter, he was very surprised . On the envelope, he looked carefully at the stamp. It was the 1974 special edition stamp. Victor was so happy. He told his sister, his mother and his father.
"You see," his father said. "You did find your stamp. So, it's good to have two things in life." "What are they?" Victor asked. "Friends and patience." He answered.

A daughter complained to her father that everything in her life was so difficult. She did not know how she was going to make it and she wanted to give up.
Her father was a cook. He took her to the kitchen, first poured some water into three pots (锅)，and then put them on the fire to burn. Very soon the water began boiling (煮沸).He put a carrot into the first pot, an egg into the second one, and some coffee beans into the third. He cooked them in the boiling water without a word.
His daughter impatiently waited and wondered what his father was doing. About 20 minutes later, he switched off the gas, took the carrot out into a bowl, the egg into another bowl and coffee into a cup. After doing these, he turned to her daughter and asked, "Honey, what did you see?" "A carrot, an egg, and coffee " she answered.
He let her touch the carrot with her hands. His daughter said it turned soft. He then asked her to take up the egg and break it. It was a cooked egg. Finally, he let her drink the coffee. It smelt sweet and she smiled. She asked, "Dad, what does this mean?"
He explained, "These three things faced the same thing―the boiling water, but their reactions (反应)were different. The carrot was strong and hard, but after going through the boiling water, it was soft and weak. The egg was fragile (易碎的),but after going into the boiling water, its inside turned hard. The coffee beans are special. After they went into the boiling water, they changed the water."
"Which are you?" he asked his daughter. "Are you a carrot, an egg, or coffee beans?" His daughter was lost in thought.
