Alice was not hurt, so she jumped to her feet in a moment. She looked up, and found the White Rabbit was still in sight. She was close behind it when she turned the comer, but the Rabbit was no longer to be seen. She found herself in a long, low hall.

There were doors all around the hall, but they were all locked.

Alice walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she was ever to get out again.

Suddenly, she came upon a little three-legged table. There was nothing on it but a tiny golden key, and Alice's first idea was that this might belong to one of the doors of the hall.

But, alas! Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before and behind it was a little door. She tried the little golden key in the lock, and she was pleased to find it fitted!

When I was in primary school, I got into a big argument（爭吵）with a boy in my class. I forgot what the argument was about, but I will never forget the lesson I learned that day.

I thought that I was right and he was wrong -and he thought that I was wrong and he was right. The teacher decided to teach us a lesson.

She brought us to the front of the class and asked him to stand on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large,: round ball. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the, ball was. "White,” he answered.

I couldn't believe he said the ball was white, when it was obviously（明顯地）black!

Another argument started between us, this time about the color of the ball.

The teacher told us to change places and then asked me what color the ball was. I had to answer "White". It was a ball with two differently colored sides, and from his side it was white.

From my side it was black.
