Uncle Li and Uncle Wang are good friends. They live next to each other and their farms are both at the foot of the mountain. So they can help each other. But neither of them likes to use his head. They're both poor though they work hard. Most villagers have built new houses, but they still live in the low and broken houses. They never find out why.

Once Uncle Li went to town to buy some medicine for his wife. In the town he heard the apples in a city were expensive. He told Uncle Wang about it as soon as he went back. They decided to carry some apples to the city. They borrowed some money from their friends and bought nearly 1,000 kilograms of apples in the villages and carried them to the city on a tractor. Bad luck! A lot of apples has already been carried there when they arrived. A few days later they had to sell them at a low price (价格)。They felt unhappy and returned to their village.

"I can't understand why we sustained (蒙受) losses in business while others always profit (盈利)" Uncle Li asked one day.

"The tractor was too small " Uncle Wang said without thinking. "We'll carry more apples on a truck next time!"

"I agree!" said Uncle Li. "How foolish (傻的) we were !"

Friends are very important in our everyday life. Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Certainly, sometimes we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.

No two people are just the same. Friends sometimes don’t get on well. That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will make it up and become friends again.

Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much but we can call them or write to them. We can also make new friends. It is encouraging to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.

There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t. Why? Friends can make us feel happy. Being happy helps you stay well. If someone cares about you, you will take better care of yourself.

I was feeling a little blue because my mother had lost her job.

One day, while I was on the street, I heard piano music and singing rising above the noise of the people. I walked more slowly to where it was coming from. Then I saw a young lady sitting at piano.

She was singing songs about love, losing herself and keeping on trying. The way she was singing made me a little comfortable. I stood there , watching her playing on such a crowded New York square . I thought that she must be enough to perform in front of so many people.

She noticed me. I walked over and told her how good her music sounded. “Thank you.” She said.

“ I have been going through a hard time recently, you’ve made me hopeful again.” I said to her.

“ I’m glad that I could help,” she replied. “Why are you so ?”

“ Well, my mum has lost her job, and I’m not so sure what to do…”

“ Did you notice the you were walking ? Your head was down.” She said. “ Don’t be upset, because opportunity(机遇)comes in different ways and if your head is down, you might not see it. You should smile more… lift your head up.”

I looked her, amazed at how she was encouraging me. “ are you playing the piano here ?” I asked her with a smile.

She explained that she saw a lot of unhappy people in the world and she tried to cheer up by playing music.

I smiled a little wider, realizing that no difficulties could stop me from going on.
