kids? How come I always fall behind?I can"t come up with an answer. " Mom knew that her son"s
self-respect (自尊心) had been hurt by the ranking system, but she didn"t know what to say to help.
    She had really wanted to say that intelligence (智力) differs and that yes, her son"s friend was really
a smarter boy. But that would make her son lose heart. So she didn"t say it.
    Her son and his friend went on to a high school that year. Although her son tried as hard as he could,

me: Do you see seabirds fighting for food out there?When a wave (海浪) comes near, the little birds
rise quickly. The "clumsy" seagulls (海鸥) are far less quick and have to tried hard to get away from the
wave. But they prove to have the biggest, strongest wings,which open the widest and allow the bird to
travel the furthest. When the season changes, they leave for foreign shores, leaving the little birds behind.
