One evening, I found an electric (电动的) model car on my 6-year-old son’s desk. We hadn’t bought one like that for him. At dinner, I asked my son about it.
“I exchanged my paper model plane from a little girl in the neighborhood.” he said.
We were surprised. The paper model plane really cost nothing. But the electric model car might cost 15 dollars at least. We thought our son might tell a lie. But we said nothing.
The next day, I took my son to the little girl’s home with the electric model car. I was going to make sure whether my son told us a lie, and to return the model car to the girl.
But the little girl’s mother told me that it was true.
“The electric model car belongs to my daughter. It is up to her. I respect her decision.” She said. “Since your son likes the electric model car, it belongs to him.”
Then I took the girl with us to a toy store. I bought an electric model plane to her. And I wanted the girl to understand whether it was worth exchanging an electric model car for a paper plane.
Since then, they have been good friends all their lives.
Education is really an art. It was lucky that we didn’t scold (训斥) our son before we learned about the fact.

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. I have a habit of taking a nap (小睡) after lunch. Without a nap at noon, I will feel uncomfortable the whole afternoon. A nap after lunch can make me feel fresh and comfortable. Then I can work better in the afternoon.
At noon – about six to eight hours after you wake up – your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. So it is best for you to take a nap after lunch for about an hour.
In many parts of the world, people take naps in the middle of the day, especially in hot weather, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. In fact, naps are good for everyone in any weather. A daily nap gives one a more relaxing body and mind in the early afternoon, and is good for health. In many countries where naps are traditional, people are seldom ill such as heart diseases.
Many working people have no time to take naps though doctors may advise taking naps in the early afternoon. Here are a few tips about your nap:
Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy later. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you don’t have enough time, try a short nap after lunch — half an hour of nap can also be helpful.

Every time I came home from work at midnight, I often saw a shadow (黑影) walking in our neighborhood. Was it “a night walking”? Someone walked alone in the dark, and this always made me afraid a lot.
I think it was “a sleep walker”. So I never bothered it. But one night, when I walked past it quietly and quickly as usual, I heard a low voice.
“Do you often have to work at night?”
I was a little afraid. I looked around, but no one was nearby. I ran home as quickly as possible.
Later on, I heard it was a neighbor, an old man who has been living alone at home. He’s NOT a sleep walker. He enjoys having a walk at night. So I seldom see him in the neighborhood in the day.
It’s said that he was a soldier many years ago. He has two children, a son and a daughter. His son has a family in Shanghai. His daughter went abroad, in Sydney. He has been living alone since his wife died several years ago. Without any children living with him, he feels lonely and helpless.
I feel sorry for the old man. We might care less about our parent who lives alone. When we grow up, our parents get old. We should often go back home even though we’re busy with work.

As soon as the woman got into the house, her eight-year-old daughter told her that her younger brother drew so many pictures on the clean wall of his bedroom and left the white wall in a mess.

“He’s hiding himself in the cupboard in his bedroom.” The little girl answered.
The woman got even angrier. She complained about her son when she went towards her son’s bedroom.
