21、What comes to your mind when you hear the word “twins”? Born on the same day? Looking almost the same? Or having the same hobbies? Well, I have a twin brother who was born on a different day from me. We do not look very much alike and we are always interested in different things.

Twelve years ago, my brother, Wayne, was born at eleven fifty-eight on the night of May 28. Five minutes later, I was born on May 29. Since we were born, I have always been heavier and stronger than Wayne, so people usually think I am the older brother.

But Wayne is always smarter than I. He loves reading and learns many things quickly. He knows a lot about animals, although he does not spend much time with our dogs and birds. He knows a lot about bicycles, but never likes to ride bikes as much as I do.

Though we are very different, I love my brother very much. I hope both of us can have a happy life in the future.

22、One day, while our cab (出租马车) was waiting outside a park, a dirty old cab drove up beside us. The horse was an old chestnut (栗色马). Suddenly, she looked at me and said, “Black Beauty, is that you? I was Ginger!”

But how different she was! She was thin and tired from too much hard work. She looked miserable and she had a bad cough. She told me her sad story. She had a year’s rest and then a gentleman bought her. For a while, she got on very well. Then one day after a long gallop (疾驰), her old problem returned, and her back hurt again. They bought and sold her several times after that.

“Then at last,” she said, “a man who has a lot of cabs and horses bought me. I work hard, all week, with no rest on Sundays. I wish I was dead.” I was very sad to hear this. I put my nose up to Ginger’s, but I didn’t know what to say to her. She said, “Black Beauty, you are my only friend.” Just then, her driver came back, and they drove off. I felt very sad indeed to see Ginger like this.

A short time after this, I saw a cart (二轮运货马车) with a dead horse in it. It was a chestnut horse with a long, thin neck. I think it was Ginger. I hope so, for then all her problems were over.

One day, a lady got into the cab. “Jerry Barker,” she said, “is that you? How are Polly and the children?” I listened to Jerry’s answer and found Mrs Fowler was a lady Polly once worked for. She asked Jerry, “How do you find the cab work in winter? I know Polly was worried about you last year.”

“Yes, ma’am. It was a hard winter and I had a bad cough,” he replied.

“Well, Barker,” Mrs. Fowler continued. “I know people who want good drivers or grooms. If you stop working on the cabs one day, let me know.”

“Certainly, ma’am,” smiled Jerry. “Thank you,” he said, and he seemed very pleased.
