24、An old man kept a sparrow(麻雀) and he really liked it. But one day the bird flew away. The old man was sad and went out to look for it everywhere, from parks to mountains. At last, he met the bird on West Hill.
The old man said excitedly, “Will you please go home with me, my bird?” Though the bird was also happy to see the old man, it shook its head.
“Take me to your home and let me see how you live.” the old man said. The bird led the old man to its new home. And he found it lived well with many other birds. So he decided to go back. Before he was leaving, the bird gave him a basket.
When he returned home, he told his wife what had happened. She opened the basket and saw a lot of gold. The old woman was very greedy and she wanted to get more baskets. So she set out for the sparrow’s home.
“Hello, sparrow. I miss you very much,” cried the woman falsely(虚伪地). Actually, she used to treat the bird badly. The bird said nothing. It gave her two baskets, a light one and a heavy one. The bird asked her to choose one and she could only open it after she reached home.

25、When kids are young, we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they “understand” all the words they are reading. This means that when they don’t know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. They may lose face in public. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously (冒险地).
One day soon after school had begun, I said to them, “Now I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find out if you understand the books. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that’s enough. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean.”
The children sat amazed and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, “Mr Holt, do you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.” During the spring she really surprised me. One day, she was reading Moby Dick 《白鲸》 at her desk. I said, “Don’t you find parts of it rather heavy going?” She answered, “Oh, sure, but I just skip over (略过) those parts and go on to the next good part.”
This is what reading should be, an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else.

26、By my eighth grade, I was a kid who felt unsafe, unloved and pretty angry at life. In other words, I behaved badly in school. However, my teacher, Ms. Simon, of course, thought that I was blind to this problem because she always reminded me, “Henry, you are the worst behaved child in this school”
Needless to say, the eighth grade was probably the worst year of my life. Good thing was that I was allowed to go to the ninth grade. But Ms. Simon’s words were always ringing in my ears.
The first day I entered the ninth grade, my teacher, Miss Brown, began to call our names. And it wasn’t long before she came to my name. “Henry,” she called out, looking from her list to where I was sitting. She looked at me carefully for a moment, and then said, “I’ve heard a lot about you.” Then she smiled and added, “But I don’t believe a word of it!”
To be honest, that moment was a turning point, not only in my education, but also in my life. Suddenly, unexpectedly, someone believed in me. For the first time in my life, someone saw potential(潜力) in me. Miss Brown often gave me little jobs to do. She invited me to stay after school to work on my reading and math. She challenged me to let her down. So I studied really hard that even my own father couldn’t believe that I was changing.
What made me the difference between the eighth grade and ninth grade? It was that risky, because there was no promise that I would honor Ms. Brown’s trust.
