Do you know the story about Vince? It was a true story. Vince was an English boy and he was eight years old. He didn’t like soap or water. Three or four times a day his mother said to him, “Vince, your hands are very dirty again.” Go and wash them. ” But Vince never washed them well. He only put his hands in the water for a few seconds and then took them out again.
Vince’s uncle and aunt lived in another city. One day they came to stay with Vince’s parents, and they brought their small son, Toby, with them. Toby was seven years old and he didn’t like soap or water, either.
The boys sat with their parents for a few minutes and then they went outside. When they
were playing, Vince looked at Toby’s hands and then went back to Toby’s parents and said proudly (骄傲地)， “Toby’s hands are dirtier than mine, ”
“Of course they are，”Toby said angrily. “You are one year older than I am, ”Vince is an eight-year-old American boy.
Both of the boys disliked soap or water.
Toby is one year younger than Vince.
Toby is Vince's brother.
Vince didn't wash his hands carefully.
Recently, children’s literature(文学) has become more and more popular. In fact, children’s literature has been welcomed by both children and adults. People have tried to find out why adults love children’s literature just like children themselves. But there is no final answer.
Children’s literature is very different from adults’literature. Most of it is fantasy(幻想). That means children can use their imagination. They can enjoy the fantasy world, which is never boring. The most important thing is that the world is bright and hopeful. In the fantasy world, dead people can be alive again and broken legs can grow once more. Right always beats wrong in the end.
Children’s literature can also influence children a lot in education. When they read, their knowledge is increased and children know more about the truth. For a child who just learns to read, understanding the meaning of a word may be greater than learning the word itself.
Children’s literature is not only for children. A large number of adults like it too. Not only young adults, parents and teachers, but also other people of all ages enjoy it. Both children and adults who love children’s literature can get much pleasure from it.Is children’s literature becoming popular now?

Americans think that travel is good for people. Some even think it can help one of the country’s worst problems—crime(犯罪).
Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the number of crimes goes up and up. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all. There are problems with alcohol(酒精) and drugs.
There are many young criminals(罪犯) in prison(监狱). But prison doesn’t change them—60 to 70 percent(百分比) will go back to crime when they come out of prison.
One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a hard life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them to grow into men. So Bob started “Vision Quest”.
He takes young criminals on a long, long journey with horses and wagons(货车) 3,000 miles through 7 states. They are on the road for more than one year.
The young people on Vision Quest all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.
It’s hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before. But they can love their horses. That love can help them to a new life.
Not all young people in Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. Thirty or forty percent till one day be in prison again. But that’s a lot better than 60 or 70 percent. Bob is right. Travel can be good for them.

When someone laughs at you, it is called teasing.
Many people are teased. Sometimes your friends tease you just for fun. You can laugh at it and forget about it. But many times the teasing can be harmful. It can make you feel sad. It is harmful when teasing makes you hate yourself.
So, it is important to learn how to deal with teasing. Here are some ways.
Self-talk. Ask yourself, “What is more important --- what they say about me or who I really am?” Of course, who you are is more important! You need to believe in yourself. When you start talking to yourself this way, you will feel more confident.
Ignore(忽视). If you become angry, then the teasers will tease you more. So, simply ignore them. When you don’t 1respond to them, they may stop teasing you.
Turn it into praise. You can turn negative teasing into positive praise. If someone teases you about your hair, you can say, “Thank you for noticing my hair.”
Agree. 2You can agree with the facts because facts are the truth. If someone teases you by saying, “You have curly(卷毛的) hair”, then you can say, “Yes, I have curly hair.” Always remember to smile when you reply this way.
Laugh. You can simply laugh when someone teases you instead of feeling sad. The teasers may be surprised to see you laugh. They might even stop teasing after some time.
Teasing is never a good thing to do. You should not tease others. But when others tease you, you have to learn to deal with it well. You should also always remember that what teasers say when they tease you is not what is true about you. When does teasing become harmful? _________________________________________
