Christmas was coming. Mr. Smith had no money to buy any presents for his children. His wife was ill and he spent much money on her medicine.

    "We have only a cock." said Mrs Smith. "You'd better sell it in the town and buy some presents for our children.'

    "That's great!" the man said and he caught the cock. The next morning he put it into a box. It was difficult to walk on the road covered with thick snow. Two hours later, he was tired and wanted to have a rest. He put the box on the ground and sat down. "The air in the box must be close. I'd better let the cock walk outside for a while, or it'll die. "So he put the cock on the ground. Later, he couldn't catch it any longer.

    "How foolish you are!" Mr. Smith shouted.

    Once upon a time there was a cloud over a beautiful country. One day she saw a much bigger cloud and wanted to become as big as that one. But how could she become bigger? She decided that she would never lose her water. The cloud never lost her water, so it never started raining in that country again. It became dry. At last the whole country became a desert (沙漠) and the plants could not gain new water to keep growing. Many plants died. The cloud then knew she had made a mistake. She started to pour her water over the country. The country became beautiful again.
