Linda was a
good girl, but she was often late for school.
One day, she was late
again. When she came in, Mr. Clark, her teacher
said angrily,
“I’ll tell you father if

very strict with her.
The next morning, Linda got up early.
She hurried to school. At the school gate, she
heard
the

bell,
“What
shall
I
do?”
she
asked
herself,
“I’ll

decided. And so she did.
When she hurried into her
classroom, Mr. Clack was already beginning his
class.
“Linda! Didn’t I
tell you to be here on time?” Mr. Clack said as he
as her.
“I’m sorry, sir,”
Linda tried to explain, “I’m late because I had
to…?”
“I don’t listen to any
excuse,” Mr. Clack stopped her. “If you can’t get
here on time, I
have to tell your
father.”
“But Mr. Clack.
It’s …it’s unfair!”
“Unfair!
How

say
that?”
Mr.

said
angrily,
“I’ll
report
you
to
the

headmaster.
“I was only
trying to do a good idea,” Linda thought,“and
now…” She couldn’t keep
back her tears.
When the bell rang for the break, the
door opened and Mr. White, the headmaster
came
in.
he
was
holding
a
wallet
in
his
hand,
“Excuse
me,
Mr.
Clack.
Is
this
your
wallet?”
“Oh,yes.
It’s my wallet. Who found it? I must thank
him.”
“Linda found it and
turned it in before school started.” Mr.
Whitesaid.
Mr.
Clack face slowly turned red. He looked at Linda
and said, “I’m very sorry. Linda.
I
take back what I said.”
“And
I’m sorry. Mr. Clack. I’ll try not
to be late again.” Linda
said.

The wind and the sun
The wind and
the sun were disputing who was the stronger.
Suddenly they
saw a traveler coming down the road. The sun said,
So
the sun hid behind a cloud, and the wind began to
blow as hard as
it could. As the wind
blew harder, the traveler wrapped his coat more
closely around himself.
Then the sun came out. He
shone on the traveler. The traveler soon
felt quite hot, and took off his coat.
风和太阳
风和太阳两方为谁的能量大相互争论不休。
突然，他们看到一个行人走在路上
，太阳说：“谁能使行人脱下衣服，谁就
更强大。”
太阳藏在乌云后面，
风开始拼命地吹，
风刮得越猛烈，
行人越是裹紧自己
的
衣服。
太阳出来了，暖暖地晒着行人，行人感到很热，很快就把外套脱了下来。
寓意
:
劝说往往比强迫更为有效。
