There is a family of ants   1   under the tree in front of my house. One day when I went home, I found that they were busy carrying earth. It was going to rain. They did it to protect（保護(hù)）the gate of   2   home. Just then the rain came down. I ran into the house. As I watched out of the window, I thought, “What a pity! The ants will all die in   3   a heavy rain.”

4   the rain stopped, I went out to see them. To my   5  , they were still alive and as happy as usual. The earth at the gate of their home kept the rain   6   and they were   7   again moving the earth away. It was very late, but they were   8  working hard. There was no one beside to watch the ants and tell them   9   to do. But they knew what they should do and they did it.

I think people should learn from the ants. When we see something that needs to be done, we should do it.   10   my neighbors, the ants, I learnt a lot.

23、To Make Everybody Happy

Peter's uncle lives in the country. Once in summer, Peter goes to stay with him for a few weeks. Whenever(每當(dāng)…的時(shí)候) they go for a walk or for a drive in the car and pass somebody, his uncle waves(揮手打招呼) to the passer-by. Peter is surprised(感到驚奇的) and says, “Uncle George, you seem(似乎) to know everybody here. Where did you meet them all?”

“I don't know all these people,” answers his uncle.

“Then why do you wave to them?”  “Well, Peter,” says his uncle, “When I wave to someone who knows me, he is pleased. He goes on his journey(旅程) with a happier heart.
