Arshad remembered of how he always complained about the swings in his playground. He felt a rush of guilt. At least he had a playground! Despite all these things, Arshad noticed how happy and satisfied all the children were. How they played and laughed, with not a single frowning face or a complaining voice. On their way back from the school, Arshad’s father said, “This is what I was talking about.”

Thinking of the happy children in that school，Arshad decided to do something. He prepared a gratitude list, jotting down all the things he was thankful for. Then he pulled out an empty cardboard box and put in all the things that he thought the children in that school might need—colouring books, toys and other such goods. When his mother asked about the box，he told her how he planned to donate these things. “I am sharing happiness.” he told his mother, his face beaming.

阿爾沙德記得他總是抱怨操場上的秋千。他感到一陣內(nèi)疚。至少他有一個游樂場！盡管如此，阿爾沙德還是注意到所有的孩子們是多么的快樂和滿足。他們是如何玩耍和笑的，沒有一個皺著眉頭的臉，也沒有抱怨的聲音。在從學(xué)?；貋淼穆飞?，阿爾沙德的父親說：“這就是我說的。”

想到那所學(xué)校里快樂的孩子們，阿爾沙德決定做點什么。他準(zhǔn)備了一份感謝清單，記下了他所感謝的所有事情。然后他拿出一個空紙箱，把他認(rèn)為學(xué)校孩子可能需要的所有東西都放進(jìn)去——涂色書、玩具和其他類似物品。當(dāng)他的母親問起這個盒子時，他告訴她他打算如何捐贈這些東西。“我在分享快樂。” 他對媽媽說，臉上洋溢著喜氣。

Finally, near the end of the school year, I got sick of being treated so poorly. I was sick of getting into battle for friendship. I stopped sitting with Jennifer at lunch and waiting for her after class. It didn’t take long: Jennifer quickly announced that I was “mad at her”. I said, “I’m not mad, I just think I need to make some more friends.” But with Jennifer it’s all or nothing. If you didn’t worship her, she was convinced you were mad at her. So our friendship fell to pieces.

I’m in Grade 7 now, and I have tons of friends. I’ve found many girls Jennifer classified as “mean” were the sweetest people in the world. We have fun together and I love them all to bits. It amazes me how easy our friendship is. There’s no struggling to be on top—we’re all equal. It doesn’t hurt my feelings or make me feel alone. I wish Jennifer could understand, I still want to be friends with her, but I can’t limit myself to one friendship. It’s better to have ten or twenty friends than just one best friend.

【范文譯文】

最后，在學(xué)年快結(jié)束時，我厭倦了受到如此惡劣的對待。我厭倦了為友誼而戰(zhàn)。午餐時我不再和詹妮弗坐在一起，而是在下課后等她。沒過多久：詹妮弗很快宣布我“生她的氣”。我說：“我沒有生氣，我只是覺得我需要交更多的朋友。”但對于詹妮弗來說，要么全有，要么全無。如果你不崇拜她，她就會相信你生她的氣。于是，我們的友誼分崩離析。

我現(xiàn)在在 7 年級，我有很多朋友。我發(fā)現(xiàn)許多被歸類為“卑鄙”的女孩詹妮弗是世界上最可愛的人。我們一起玩得很開心，我愛他們。令我驚訝的是，我們的友誼如此簡單。登上榜首并不費(fèi)力——我們都是平等的。它不會傷害我的感情或讓我感到孤獨(dú)。我希望詹妮弗能理解，我仍然想和她做朋友，但我不能將自己局限于一種友誼。最好有十個或二十個朋友，而不是一個最好的朋友。

Looking over my shoulder, I stared into the flashing lights of a truck. It was Joe！I couldn’t help bursting into tears. Joe shouted to me not to be frightened. Then he threw a thick rope so that I could hang on to it and walk straight toward him. I opened the door, grabbed it and inched out. However, a sudden fall left me in the rushing water. I struggled to my feet, only to find a branch blocking the way right in front of me.  I screamed that I couldn’t make it. Joe, however, remained calm！He urged me to take one step at a time and assured me I could make it. I moved forward slowly and cautiously before I fell into his arms. Sobbing against his chest, I apologized that I shouldn’t have taken the shortcut. Joe patted me saying his primary concern was my safety. Only then did I realize Joe actually understood how to take care of me despite his trouble with the housework.

我越過我的肩膀，凝視著一輛卡車閃爍的燈光。是喬！我忍不住淚流滿面。喬大聲叫我不要害怕。然后他扔了一根粗繩子，這樣我就可以抓住它，徑直走向他。我打開門，抓住它，慢慢地走了出去。然而，一個突然的跌倒使我陷入了湍急的水中。我掙扎著站起來，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)一根樹枝擋在了我的面前。

   我尖叫著說我做不到。然而，喬保持冷靜！他敦促我一次邁出一步，并向我保證我能做到。我慢慢地小心翼翼地往前走，然后倒在他的懷里。我靠在他的胸口抽泣，為我不應(yīng)該走捷徑而道歉。喬拍拍我說他最關(guān)心的是我的安全。直到那時我才意識到喬實際上知道如何照顧我，盡管他的家務(wù)很麻煩。

He grabbed a heavy four-foot-long stick from a construction site nearby. Douglas ran the few steps over to them. He brought the stick down as hard as he could on the man's back. The attacker backed off and ran down the street. After the chase, Douglas and two other bystanders eventually tackled the assailant to the sidewalk. They tied his hands with a rope and called the police and an ambulance. The victim, a 63-year-old grandmother named Terri, lay on the road unconsciously. Passengers jumped off the bus to offer what aid they could until EMS arrived. Terri was transported to a nearby hospital, where she spent five days recovering from the attack to her neck, hand, and thigh, as well as severe bruising.

Two weeks after the assault, Douglas visited Terri at her home. He brought along his one-year-old daughter and a bouquet of flowers. Seeing Douglas, Terri became teary and asked her son to help her to her feet so she could greet her savior. “No, you don't have to get up,” Douglas told her. “Yes, I do,” said Terri in a firm voice. It was the only way she could give him a proper hug. “Thank you. You're all I had to help me,” she said, crying into his chest. “I just did what anybody would have done,” Douglas replied. Terri disagreed. Shaking her head, she said, “Not everyone would have done what you did.”
