I have to face some very sad things and I always keep thinking about them. Because of this, I can’t focus on (聚焦于) anything and don’t even feel like talking to anybody.” Mr. Brown listened carefully, thought for a while and said, “Would you like some lemonade (柠檬汽水)?” Larry felt a little surprised and nervously replied, “Yes, thank you!” While preparing lemonade, Mr. Brown added more salt but less sugar.

Mr. Brown stopped him, “Oh, it doesn’t matter. I will throw it away.” As the teacher was lifting the glass to take it away, Larry stopped him and said, “Sir, please don’t throw it away. If we put a little more sugar in the lemonade, it will be fine to drink.” Hearing this, Mr. Brown said happily, “This is what I want to hear from you. We can just add some sugar to it. Similarly, we can not forget sad things that have already happened to us, but we can add sweetness of good experiences in our life.

The friendship between Mr. Brown and Larry C Are fables (寓言故事) and fairy tales (童话故事) different or the same? They are both stories for kids, but fables are stories for adults, too. Fables are usually short stories. They passed down from grandparents to parents and then to children. Fables can teach lessons to people. People can learn much from them. Most of the characters are animals. They can talk and act like humans. The most famous fables were written by a man called Aesop. There are around three hundred fables in Aesop’s Fables. The Lion and the Mouse, The Farmer and the Snake and The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing are three examples. Fairy tales are usually stories for children, often about magic characters such as fairies (仙女) and giants (巨人). Sometimes the characters are animals. We are able to enjoy these fairy tales because of the famous Brothers Grimm. About two hundred years ago, Brothers Grimm traveled all over Germany and collected these stories before people forgot them. There are lots of fairy tales in Grimm’s Fairy Tales, such as Sleeping Beauty, The Frog Prince, Little Red Riding Hood, The Fisherman and His Wife and Snow White. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 27.

Fairy tales are usually stories for children, often about magic characters such as fairies (仙女) and giants (巨人). Sometimes the characters are animals. We are able to enjoy these fairy tales because of the famous Brothers Grimm.
