Once there were two neighbors. One of them was an old teacher and the other was an office worker. Both
of them planted the same plants in their gardens. The old teacher gave a little water to his plants every day and
didn’t always care for them, while his neighbor gave much water to his plants and looked after them well.
The old teacher’s plants were simple but looked good. The office worker’s plants were much taller and
greener. One night, there was a heavy rain. The next morning, the office worker saw his plants were uprooted (连
根拔起), but the old teacher’s plants stood firmly (稳固地).
The neighbor was surprised and went to the old teacher and asked, “We both grew the same plants together.
I looked after my plants better than you did, and I even gave them more water. However, my plants were
uprooted, while yours weren’t. Why?”
The old teacher smiled and said, “You gave your plants more water, so they didn’t need to work for it. I
gave them a little water, so their roots grew deeper to get more water. It made them stronger.”

Millions of years ago, dinosaurs (恐龙) controlled (控制) the earth. And there were different kinds of
dinosaurs on the earth. Some of them were no bigger than chickens, while some were about 90 feet long. But all
of them had very small brains (大脑). Later on, there weren’t any dinosaurs. What happened to them?
In the days of dinosaurs, the whole earth was warm and wet. There were many green forests. But the earth
changed slowly all the time. When parts of the earth became freezing and dry, the forests there died. Then
dinosaurs could not find enough food to eat. This must be one reason why dinosaurs died out.
There were also terrible fights between dinosaurs. Though there was no man to see any of the fights, the
animal’s footprints could tell us that the fights did happen.
What’s another reason? We can make a guess. New kinds of animals might come to the earth. Some of
them had big brains and were fast and strong. They could kill dinosaurs. Some ate dinosaur eggs, too.
There may be other reasons that we do not know about. Each year people will find some dinosaur footprints
and bones. Scientists are trying to tell us more about dinosaurs.

Once there was a dandelion (蒲公英) living alone by the road. It felt bored and unhappy all day, no one
公众号：初中英语助手
ever stopped to take a look at or talk to it.
One day, a mother was walking on the road with her baby. The baby was crying hard and loudly. No matter
what the mother did she couldn’t get the baby to stop crying. Then the mother looked down, and she found the
lonely dandelion. It looked so lovely in the sun with its white seeds (种子) widely open, and more beautiful than
other plants around.
The mother squatted down, picking the dandelion. Then she brought it up to her baby so that he could see it
clearly. When the baby saw the flowers of the dandelion, he quickly stopped crying and looked at them with
interest.
His mom put the dandelion near her mouth and blew the flowers up and down. The dandelion seeds then
flew in the air, spreading far away with the wind. The mother gave the dandelion to her son. He didn’t know what
the plant was, but he knew it was fun to play with, which made him giggle (咯咯笑) so happily.
Now the dandelion knew its value (价值) and didn’t feel sad. It lived a beautiful life just by being itself. It
wasn’t as beautiful as other flowers, but it brought the child a simple kind of happiness that money can’t buy.
Everyone is special and great. We can help others in one way or another. We’re far greater than we think
we are.

Face up to your faults (缺点). 72 Think about it carefully and write down the traits, like the ones

When you are talking with someone who knows you well, ask them what they think your faults are. Other
people may help you see yourself more clearly. They can sometimes see some of your faults that you don’t know.
73 There must be someone you look up to in real life. Maybe they are host, writers, doctors or
scientists. Try reading stories or watching videos about these people. This can help you find out the personality
traits that they have and that you would like to have.
