George was very stingy (吝啬的). He hated spending money.
Whenever he had to buy something, he always argued about the price and tried to bargain (讨价还价),
even for the cheapest things.
If he wanted to buy a bottle of coke, for example, and the shopkeeper asked for $2, George would say,
"Make it $1.90 and I"ll buy it."
Sometimes the shopkeeper agreed to reduce (降低) their prices a little. "What"s ten cents?" they asked
themselves."If it makes this man happy, then it won"t hurt me very much."
In this way George saved a few cents here and a few cents there, and by the end of the year, he had
saved several hundred dollars.
One day he had a very bad toothache and had to go to the dentist. The dentist looked at the tooth and
said, "This tooth will have to come out. It"s too damaged (损坏的) to save."
"How much do you charge (要价) to take out a tooth?" George asked.
"Forty dollars." the dentist said. "Forty dollars!" George thought this was much too expensive.
"How long will it take you to pull out the tooth?" he asked.
"About two minutes," the dentist said.
George could not believe what he was hearing. "Forty dollars for two minutes" work!" he shouted.
"That"s robbery (抢劫)."
The dentist smiled. "You"re right," she said. "Thank you for telling me. I"ll pull your tooth out very slowly.
What if I take half an hour?" |

Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my
house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons
from his experiences. He always told me, "You should have goals like climbing the mountain." Without the
mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed,we couldn"t have enough time to spend together because my father
was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in
deep thought as well as develop my patience (耐力).
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old.
During the first few hours of climbing. I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds" singing, but as time
passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that moment, but my
father said to me, "You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can"t see it before
you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life."
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence.
I found myself standing at the top of the sky, which was as clear as crystal (水晶).
