An old man was sitting on the sofa with Mike, his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a dove (鸽子) landed on the ground.
The father asked his son, “What is this?”
The son replied, “It is a dove.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time. “What is this?”
The son said, “Father, I have just told you. It’s a dove.”
After a little while, the old father asked his son for the third time. “What is this?”
This time Mike could not control his anger and shouted, “It’s a dove, a dove. Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you so many times IT IS A DOVE! Don’t you understand this?”
The old man silently took out an old diary, turned to a page and showed it to Mike. Though a little impatient (不耐烦), Mike began to read it.
“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa. When a dove landed on the ground, my son asked me what it was. I smiled at him, said it was a dove and hugged him. After a while Mike asked me again and I did the same. Pointing to the same dove, little Mike asked me what it was 23 times and I kept on answering his question and hugging him every time.”
Something gently touched Mike’s heart. His face turned red with shame for being so impatient with his father and he hugged him tightly (紧紧地).
Your parents have given you many things in their lifetime, but you may not realize that until they are gone.

How to Relax
Everyone has stress in their life, but we can’t just let it be there. We have to do something about it. One way to relax is through exercise. You can take part in outdoor activities, such as running, swimming or playing football.
Another way to relax is through music. Listening to your favorite songs is actually a good way to make you happy.
The last way is through sleep. If you have had a long day at work and need to relax, go to sleep. You can rest a long time and when you wake up, you’ll probably feel much better.
