George never did become a lawyer and Richard Pike never made any money. Instead both men opened bookshops on opposite sides of Clifford High Street. It was hard to make money from books, which made the competition between them worse. Then Richard Pike married a girl. The couple spent their honeymoon on the beachbut Richard Pike never came back. The police found his wallet on a deserted beach but the body was never found. He must have dead in the water. Now with only one bookshop in Clifford High Street, business was better for George. But sometimes he sat in his narrow, old kitchen and looked out of the dirty window, thinking about his rival(竞争对手). Perhaps he missed him! George was very interested in old dictionaries. He had recently found a collector in Australia who was selling a rare(稀有的) first edition. When the parcel arrived, the book was in perfect condition and George was delighted. But while he was having lunch, George saw the photo in the newspaper with which the book had been wrapped(包裹). He was surprisedthe smiling face was older than he remembered but unmistakable!

Wee k by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasnt a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didnt you ever wonder what youre really like ? Well, you now have that girls opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldnt change (like being very thin), but a good number I couldand suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself. I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“Thats just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, youll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Dont shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.” Daddys advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, Ive never had a better piece of advice. 25. What did the father do after he had heard his daughters complaint? A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her“enemy” had said. B.

Beloved by Chileans of all classes, he is one of the most widely read and respected poets in history. And this year is the 110th birthday of Pablo Neruda (1904-1973). Born with the name Neftali Ricardo Reyes Basolto, he was a tall, shy and lonely boy. He loved to read and started to write poetry when he was ten. The American poet Walt Whitman, whose framed picture Neruda later kept on his table, became a major influence on his work. However, his father did not like the idea of having a poet for a son and tried to discourage him from writing. To cover up the publication of his first poem, he took the pen name Pablo Neruda. In 1924 Neruda gained fame with his most widely read work “Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair. Yet his rich experience as a diplomat and exile made him go beyond the theme of love. His work also reflected the political struggle of the left and development of South America. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971. Neruda loved the sea which he saw as creative, destructive and forever moving. He found inspiration in the power and freedom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast. “I need the sea because it teaches me,” he wrote. “I move in the university of the waves.” He loved how the sea forever renewed itself, a renewal echoed (共鸣) in his work.28.
