Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window.The father asked his son, “What is that?”The son replied, “That is a crow.”After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?”The son said, “Fat
28、her, I told you just now. Its a crow.”After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this?”This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “Its a crow, a crow.”After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What i
29、s this?”This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, IT IS A CROW. Are you not able to understand this?”A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born.
30、On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the s
31、ame question. I didnt at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son.If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them.

34、 we can have much more happiness if we choose to consider things from a positive point of view. Everyone experiences the ups and downs of life, however, we can make a decision to take advantage of the negative or practice what the old saying says to do:“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!” It
35、 really boils down to your attitude and you have the ability to work your attitude into any shape you like. Here are some tips:Ignore those who tell you life is too difficult to be happy. what do they know?When you awaken each morning, be thankful for another day, even if its raining.Smile at those
36、you meet, even if they dont return the favor.Dont borrow trouble. Each day has enough of its own.Dont allow trouble to bury you in its gray depth of sorrow.Dont give in to negative thinking.Be positive even when others are not.Refuse to give up on anything worth having or doing.Do something you enjo
37、y each day, even if its just a walk in your neighborhood. Whistle(吹口哨) as you go though the day.Work at being happy because its worth it.Youre human, like everyone else, and from time to time you need a little pick-me-up in your decision to be happy. When you reach that stage, find someone else who
38、has decided to be happy. Join forces with him and march forward in your decision to be a happy person. Simply speaking, a happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances(环境) but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.Choose today to just be happy-as much as it depends on you!

42、p, while others can lose themselves in the next street?Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool
43、University supports this idea and suggests that if we dont use it, well lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop
44、the skills.”Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something
45、like a big stone or a treesomething easy to recognize. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike.
