Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itse
3、lf. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked(漏水)along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am!

4、as me to water the flowers every day! I dont know why he still bothers you.

9、One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment( 约见)was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre(胎) of his car. Obviously there was so
10、mething wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service.

11、an said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. Its the least I could do. Please.

14、y.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office.

18、that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs
19、 have a good relationship.- 4 -However, it isnt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression(侵略,好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body language is just different.
20、 For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission(顺从).In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to ta
