that is so you can borrow some money

to buy a silly toy, then you go to bed." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so,the man had calmed down. And started to think. Maybe there was something he really needed

to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the iIttle boy's room

and opened the door."Are you asleep, son?" he asked. "no daddy," replied the boy. "I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier." said the man, "Here's the $10 you asked for." the little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh, thank you daddy!" he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry agaIn. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father. "Why do you want more money? Is you already have some ?" the father asked. "Because I didn't have enough, but now I do. "the little boy repiied, "Daddy , I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time ?Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."
一个男人下班回到家很晚，很累，发现5岁的儿子在门口等他。“爸爸，我可以问你一个问题吗？”男人回答道：“当然可以，什么问题？”“爸爸，你一小时赚多少钱？”“如果你一定要知道的话，我一小时赚20美元”“哦”，小男孩低着头，又抬起来说：“爸爸，我可以借10美元吗？”这位父亲很生气：“如果你问这个问题的唯一原因是你想借钱买一个无聊的玩具，你现在可以回你的床上去了。”小男孩静静地走回他的房间关上门。大约一小时以后，男人的气消了，开始思考。也许他真的需要10美元买些什么，而且他也不经常向他要钱。男人走到儿子门口，打开门，“你睡着了吗？”他问，“还没有，爸爸。”小男孩回答说。“我一直在想，也许我刚刚对你太严厉了。”男人说，“这是你要的10美元。”小男孩站直了，微笑着：”谢谢你，爸爸！“他高兴得大叫。然后，他从他的枕头底下掏出一些皱巴巴的纸币。男人看见儿子有钱，又开始生气了。小男孩小心翼翼地数着钱。他抬起头来看着父亲。”你为什么要钱？你已经有一些了？“父亲问。”因为我还不够，现在我够了。“小男孩回答说，”爸爸，我已经有20美元了。我可以买你一小时的时间吗？明天请早点回家，我想和你一起吃晚饭。"

钉子
有一个坏脾气的男孩，他父亲给了他一袋钉子。并且告诉他，每当他发脾气的时候就钉一个钉子在后院的围栏上。第一天，这个男孩钉下了37根钉子。慢慢地，每天钉下的钉子数量减少了，他发现控制自己的脾气要比钉下那些钉子容易。于是，有一天，这个男孩再也不会失去耐性，乱发脾气。他告诉父亲这件事情。父亲又说，现在开始每当他能控制自己脾气的时候，就拔出一根钉子。一天天过去了，最后男孩告诉他的父亲，他终于把所有钉子给拔出来了。
父亲握着他的手，来到后院说：“你做得很好，我的好孩子，但是看看那些围栏上的洞。这些围栏将永远不能恢复到从前的样子。你生气的时候说的话就像这些钉子一样留下疤痕。如果你拿刀子捅别人一刀，不管你说了多少次对不起，那个伤口将永远存在。话语的伤痛就像真实的伤痛一样令人无法承受。”

人与人之间常常因为一些无法释怀的僵持，而造成永远的伤害。如果我们都能从自己做起，开始宽容地看待他人，相信你一定能收到许多意想不到的结果。为别人开启一扇窗，也就是让自己看到更完整的天空。

英语寓言小故事
Making His Mark “刻舟求剑”
A man from the state of Chu was taking a boat across a river when he dropped his sword into the water carelessly. Immediately he made a mark on the side of the boat where the sword dropped, hoping to find it later. When the boat stopped moving, he went into the water to search for his sword at the place where he had marked the boat. As we know, the boat had moved but the sword had not. Isn’t this a very foolish way to look for a sword? 楚国有个人坐船渡江时，他不小心把自己的一把宝剑掉落江中。他马上掏出一把小刀，在宝剑落水的船舷上刻上一个记号。船靠岸后，那楚人立即从船上刻记号的地方跳下水去捞取掉落的宝剑。他怎么找得到宝剑呢？船继续行驶，而宝剑却不会再移动。像他这样去找剑，真是太愚蠢可笑了。

On his birthday， his students wanted to give him a party. When he found out，he told them， "If you respect me， use the money for the party to buy animals to set free. That would be the best possible birthday gift you could get me."

一次逢王的生日，他的学生想给他祝寿。他发现后对他们说："如果你们真的尊重我，就用准备生日宴会的钱买动物放生吧。这是你们可以给我的最好的生日礼物。" His students were touched， and did as he said.

All in all， that year he released twice as many animals as usual.

他的学生被感动了，于是他们按照先生的话做了。因此那一年王先生放生的动物是往年的两倍。

❽ 英语阅读理解

回答和翻译如下：
V．
1. F 单词，“业余爱好者”最早，来源于一场战争。
2. T 业余爱好者在1986年开始比赛，因为，故事来源与一位著名的希腊士兵。
3. T 现代的奥林匹克运动会，每四年举行一次。
4. F 一个业余爱好者，挣得的所有钱，都来源于体育运动当中。
5. T 政府支付了运动员的费用，训练和旅行费用。
6. F 奥林匹克运动会成为了一项政治业余爱好者的活动，因为，政府会训练运动员。
体育拥有着完美的记忆，在我的脑海里，但是，或许,没有事情，能够和马拉松比赛所相提并论。它是最长的比赛，也是所有的比赛当中，最艰难的比赛。“马拉松比赛”来源于，希腊的一个村庄。在490 B.C有一个著名的战役。当希腊人被波斯绸人民所打败的时候，一个士兵通过马拉松去雅典人的路上，跑完了所有的路程——40千米——用来告诉人们这个好消息。当现代的奥林匹克运动会在1896年开始时候，组织者知道了这个故事。马拉松由此而闻名。
在古时候的奥林匹克比赛当中，在1000年里，每四年举行一次。它是生活里重要的一部分。现代的运动会里，我们尝试了新的想法。这里，汇集着，世界上最好的运动员——或者，至少，最好的“业余爱好者”都汇聚在这里。一个业余爱好者是从体育里，并不能够挣得任何钱财的。一个业余的运动员，常常觉得这事难以启齿。确信的是，奥林匹克运动员没有挣得足够大量的钱财，就像是一位专业的运动员一样。但是，奥林匹克运动员常常是学生和老师从事这项运动。他们不得不花费大量的时间用来训练。他们的政府支付了他们的训练经费，旅游费用和零钱，因为，他们想要赢得比赛。一些人认为，奥林匹克运动会应该改革。他们感觉，运动会现在更像是一场政治的业余爱好者的活动。
