Once upon a time, there was a spider(蜘蛛) with the name Anansi. He knew that he was clever but he also knew he wasn't wise. He didn’t like this,but he did not know what to do. One day he had an idea. He went around the village with a basket and asked each person to give him some of their wisdom. All people laughed at Anansi because they knew that he needed wisdom the most. So each person put a bit in his basket and wished him good luck.
Soon his basket was full,but Anansi was worried that his neighbors might be jealous of his wisdom and take it from him. He decided to hide it at the top of a tall tree. When he had tied the basket to the front part of his body,he tried to climb the tree,but it was too difficult. He tried again and again without success.
Then his youngest son walked by. “What are you doing,father?” he asked and Anansi told him.“Why don’t you carry the basket on your back instead?” his son said.
Anansi put the basket on his back and climbed the tree easily,but he wasn’t happy.“1 walked all over the village and collected so much wisdom that I am the wisest person ever,but my baby son is still wiser than me. Take back your wisdom!”he said. And he threw the basket of wisdom into the air and went home. And that's how wisdom went all over the world.

I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning. He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!"
Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep. I'm not at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for breakfast as soon as my mother calls.
But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (军乐队) in our bedroom could not wake him up. I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up immediately!"
But he just sleeps. After calling a few more times my mother has to come upstairs and pull Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with my little brother. Perhaps some day he'll learn to get up on time, but I really don't think so.
小题1:The most terrible thing in life for my little brother is going to school. 
小题2:I usually jump out of bed and go into the bathroom for a shower before my mother calls.
小题3:When mother calls, Herbert doesn't answer and still stays in bed.
小题4:Sometimes we have to send for a military band to wake Herbert up.
小题5:The writer thinks some day Herbert will learn to get up on time.

A rich man was once riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. On the ground lay a young tree, ready to be planted. The rich man called out to the old man, “What kind of tree are you planting there, my good man?”
“This is a fig(无花果) tree, sir. ” He said.
“A fig tree?” the rich man was very surprised, “Why, how old are you, may I ask?”
“I am ninety years old.”
“What!” cried the rich man, “You’re ninety years old. You are planting a very young tree now and it’ll take years to give fruit.

Did you eat figs when you were a boy? ”“Sure,” the man did not know why he asked this question.“ Then tell me this,” he said, “Who planted the fig
trees?” “Why-why? I don’t know.” “You see, sir.” went on the old man,“ Our forefathers(祖先) planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”
