“Get out of here!” commanded the guards.

Well,the little boy didnt have to be told twice.He turned...and ran right away.All he wanted to do was to tell the king wonderful things,and see all the beautiful things in the king’s house.But he couldn’t even get near the castle! The boy finally stopped running,sat down and cried.

“Sir,I walked and walked just to see the king.But these guards made me frightened.I wanted to tell the king how lovely everything is and just tell the king that I just wanted to see him!”

The man looked at the little boy thoughtfully.“Look,why don’t you try again.Don’t lose heart.I’ll come with you this time.”

The little boy got up and took the man’s hand.The king’s guards spotted them.

“Look,mister,we don’t have to do this...I don’t want you to get hurt.We can just turn around now.”

The man held the little boy’s hand and went on.The boy really thought the man might be crazy until he looked back up at the guards.They were all smiling now.The little boy was surprised.

As a natural emotion that everyone experiences in life,anger is in many cases a perfectly healthy emotion.Anger can motivate(激發(fā)) people to make very positive changes in their lives.Sometimes we have to be angry at injustice(不公正),or even at nature,before we can do what needs to be done to correct wrongs or make things better.But of course,that is not what we usually think of anger.

Most people think of anger as an emotion we must keep under control.Parents tell a child to “get control” of himself when the child shows anger.Children are sometimes sent to their rooms or punished for expressing anger in an extreme way.We may be angry with friends or at work,but we know it is usually not suitable to show it.We have to control the anger or suffer what may be the negative consequences.Very early in life,we learn that anger is something that must be controlled.We learn this for a good reason.We know that uncontrolled anger can lead to fights,car accidents,bad relationships with others,unacceptable social behavior,and many other problems.

Many experts say that if one holds his anger in,it can even lead to severe mental and physical health problems.So what can we do to understand and calm this natural emotion that we call anger?

Experts offer many solutions to harmful anger.Some of these solutions include expressing your feelings and talking about what has caused the anger with someone you trust,avoiding a situation that causes anger,beating a pillow,exercising more and many other methods.Whatever solution one chooses,it is good to know that by trying to find the solution to the problem of anger,the first step in the right direction to solving the anger problem has been taken.

Have you ever been to the world's smallest bookstore?

The World's Smallest Bookstore,whose official name is just these three words,sits quietly about 100 miles northeast of Toronto.

The bookstore is about 10 feet by 10 feet,so it is easy to imagine how tiny it really is.The bookstore is open 24 hours a day.Inside the bookstore are various books,especially literary books and classic authors' works.So if you are looking for something less popular,you may get a bit disappointed there.

Another special feature of this bookstore is that each book only costs three dollars.All the expenses are paid on the honor system,which means buyers should make a note of what they've bought and leave their money by themselves.So the tools of the trade in this bookstore are quite simple: pens,papers,light bulbs and a label-maker.

In order to catch passers-by's attention,the billboards(廣告牌)of the bookstore are several times bigger than the store itself.With these large eye-catchers,many people are willing to stop by and have a visit.

There is a lot to learn about the creations of Beatrix Potter—not only is she the author and illustrator of one of the world's most famous children's books,The Tale of Peter Rabbit,but also a pioneering conservationist with the spirit of a scientist.

"Potter grew up as the daughter of a wealthy Victorian family,but along with her brother who filled an entire floor of their large house in London with all sorts of animals,"said Anne Lundin,a retired professor for the UW-Madison School of Library and Information Studies.

"As an adult,she was a frustrated botanical illustrator and scientist.That field was not open to her because she was female,"Lundin said.Potter was urged to tum the charming illustrations and stories she wrote in letters to children into books.She wrote 23 books in all—a body of work that has inspired plays,ballets,films and an astonishing amount of merchandise.

"The Tale of Peter Rabbit is probably the most famous children's book in the world,which was published in 1902 and has really stood the test of time.It's been translated into 36 languages.The parents and grandparents will share it with the next generation,"said Lundin.

Potter also made a mark on the world through her land conservation."In many ways,she was like Peter Rabbit, venturing into a world of adventure and risk.She withdrew from London as soon as she started making some money on her books to the Lake District and became an extremely important farmer and conservationist.She preserved and passed on 15 farms and over 4,000 acres,which were given back to the country as gifts in the 20th century,"said Lundin.

Even though she was born 150 years ago,she was amazingly modern—her embracing of the natural world, commented Jennifer Blatchley Smith,an artistic director of the show Peter Rabbit Tales to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Potter's birth.

1.What helped Beatrix Potter to write The Tale of Peter Rabbit successfully ?

A. Her life and work experiences.

B. Her specialty in animated(動畫)pictures.

C. Her success in becoming a botanical scientist.

D. Her interest in animals in childhood alone.

2.What does the word "frustrated" in the third paragraph mean?

A. Disappointed. B. Devoted.

C. Motivated. D. Inspired.

3.What is Beatrix Potter?

A. A botanist and artist.

B. An extremely important farmer and successful scientist.

C. A writer,conservationist and farmer.

D. An artistic director.

4.Why does the author write the article?

A. In celebration of Potter's 150th birthday.

B. In honour of Potter's new contributions.

C. In praise of Potter's spirit of selflessness.

D. In support of Potter's book promotions.
