   Deep down in the sea,Oliver,a little octopus (章魚(yú)) sat on the floor covered with sand,bored and upset. He watched pretty fish swimming in and out of rocks,which were laughing and dancing in the sea. aWhy am I so different?” he said to himself sadly.

   “You are an octopus,Oliver. That's special." The sweet voice of Cherub,a beautiful purple angelfish (神仙魚(yú)) ，always made Oliver feel better. Oliver looked up at the purple angelfish and smiled. Cherub suggested ,“Let's play hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) .” They were having so much fun that they didn't realize they had swum far from home. Suddenly,Cherub saw a large shark (鯊魚(yú)) swimming above them. “It was Big White. .. the biggest,scariest shark in the sea ,” she shouted to Oliver. Cherub looked at Big White hopelessly. She was too frightened to swim. Just at this moment,Big White rushed down toward them. An idea came to Oliver. He quickly sprayed (噴射) a very dark cloud of black water to the shark's eyes. Then Oliver and Cherub escaped and got home safely.

   “Are you OK?” asked Oliver. Cherub laughed happily ,“That was the most interesting trip ever!You saved me just now,Oliver. I am lucky to have you as my friend!” Oliver's face turned red. “I guess being different can be pretty cool in some situations ,” Oliver said. “That is what I tried to tell you ,” Cherub smiled.[2013黑龍江哈爾濱改編]

   Most parents are crazy with their children's little white lies,but here is a piece of good news. A study has shown that children who lie from an early age are more likely to become high-flying leaders,executives (管理者) and bankers. The study of 1 ,200 children has found that a fifth of two-year-olds are likely to tell lies,rising to 90 percent from the age of four. At the age of 12 ,it reaches the highest.

   Dr Kang Lee studied children from the age of two to seventeen. He said ,“Parents should not be worried if their child tells a lie about something that is not important. Almost all children lie. Those children who lie better mean that they can cover up their mistakes. “They may become executives in later life. Lying shows that children have developed executive ability — an act which involves several brain processes to keep the truth at the back of their mind ,” Dr Lee said. 

   Dr Lee told the children not to look at a purple Barney toy dinosaur (恐龍) placed behind their back. He then left the room for one minute —giving them time to look,while their activities were filmed. Nine of the ten children did turn around.

   But most of the children denied (否認(rèn)) it. While the study found the most dishonest age was 12 ,it dropped to about 70 percent once the children turned to 16 years old.

   A good friendship is a source of love,comfort and strength. So it's hard to understand when a friend suddenly stops talking to you. Most likely,she is giving you the silent treatment,because you said or did something that made her angry or hurt her feelings.

   If it happens,you should write a heart-felt letter to your friend first. Express how much your friendship means to you. Tell her that you miss talking to her or hanging out with her. Tell her why you feel you need her in your life. Ask her why she is not talking to you. Ask if there is anything that you did wrong. Ask if there is any way that you can make it up to her.

   Next,write a letter to her about your feelings,but don't send it. Describe how losing the friendship made you feel. Write how it feels not to have your friend in your life any more. Be as hurtful as you want to be wsince no one is going to see it. Get all your anger out in this letter.

   You probably talk to friends much more than you talk to your parents. That's natural. Even if you and your parents have a great relationship,you want to find your own path and make your own choices. Still,most of us want a parent's help,advice,and support at times. However talking to the adults in your life can seem difficult. But how to make it easier?

   First,talk about everyday stuff and do it every day. The more you do something,the easier it gets. Talking to the adults in your life about everyday stuff builds a bond that can smooth the way when you need to discuss something more serious.

   Find something unimportant to chat about each day. Talk about how your team did or share something one of your teachers said. Even small talk about what's for dinner can keep your relationship strong and comfortable.

   It's never too late to start. If you feel your relationship with your parents is nervous,try relaxing conversations. Talk about how well your little sister is doing in math. Chatting with parents every day keeps the relationship stronger.

   A mother planted many kinds of vegetables in her garden. One morning she said to her daughter, “Betty,come here. Look at all these little yellow marks on the leaves of the cabbages. They are eggs of a kind of insects. They are very beautiful but very bad for cabbages. This afternoon you must find all the eggs on the leaves and kill them. In this way,you will help us have better,greener and bigger cabbages. ”

   Betty didn't think she should do it at once and in the end she forgot all about it. Her mother was ill for a few days and couldn’t work in her garden. When she was well,she took Betty to the garden to see the cabbages. To their surprise,the insects had eaten up every leaf. When Betty saw this,she was upset and began to cry.

   Have you heard of the term “etiquette”？And do you know that etiquette is not only a useful word 1 very useful to understand?

   Etiquette is not the same in every culture 2 in every situation. For example,standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However,if you do this in Europe,some 3 people might feel 4 Even in China,we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine,but there are other places where talking loudly is 5 . For example,most people would agree that talking loudly in a library,a museum,or a movie theater is 6 Even if you are with your friends,it is better to keep your voice 7 in public places. In fact,we should also 8 not to cough or sneeze loudly in public.

   If we see someone 9 the rules of etiquette,we may politely give them some suggestions. Perhaps one of the most polite ways 10 ask someone. “Would you mind doing this” or “Would you mind not doing that”. For example,if someone cuts 11 you in a line,you could ask them,Sorry,would you mind 12 in the line?” If someone is smoking on the bus,you could ask, “Excuse me,could you please 13 that cigarette?” People don't usually like 14 , so we have to be careful how we do this.

   Although rules of etiquette can often be different,some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world!For example,15 is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this,you can ask them ,“Would you mind picking it up?”

   If you are like a lot of married women,you might find yourself taking on most of the housework. A study by the University of Michigan found that having a husband creates an extra seven hours of housework a week. No wonder you are feeling tired or stressed. You might think it is impossible to get your husband to pitch in around the house,but there are some steps you can try to save your health,and perhaps even your marriage.

   . Ask your husband for help. Most men truly want to make their wives happy. By asking for help in a loving and respectful way,it is likely that your husband will be happy to agree. Ask him to dry the dishes when you wash.

   . Thank your husband for his help. While you might think he ought to do it without being reminded or thanked,men are simply wired differently and may not realize what all there is to do and how much his help means to you. When he does something with or without being asked,no matter how small,smile sweetly and let him know how much you appreciate it.

   . Lower your expectations. If he doesn’t load the dishwasher the way you do,let it go. As long as the job is getting done and nothing or nobody is harmed,what's the big deal if it is not perfect or “your way”？

   . Make it fun. Find chores that you can do together,and then add some playfulness. Start a little water fight while doing the dishes,or get him to chase you around the yard while you are pulling weeds.
