A Brother Like That
A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it.
"Is this your car, Mister?" he said.
Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ." He hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels. "I wish," the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?" the boy asked.
He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.
"There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about." Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned
what Jesus meant when he said: "It is more blessed to give . . . "
哥哥的心愿
聖誕節時，保羅的哥哥送他一輛新車。聖誕節當天，保羅離開辦公室時，一個男孩繞著那輛閃閃發亮的新車，十分讚嘆地問： "先生，這是你的車?"
保羅點點頭："這是我哥哥送給我的聖誕節禮物。"男孩滿臉驚訝，支支吾吾地說："你是說這是你哥送的禮物，沒花你一分錢?天哪，我真希望也能……"
保羅當然知道男孩他真想希望什麼。他希望能有一個象那樣的哥哥。但是小男孩接下來說的話卻完全出乎了保羅的意料。
"我希望自己能成為送車給弟弟的哥哥。"男孩繼續說。
保羅驚愕地看著那男孩，衝口而出地說："你要不要坐我的車去兜風?" "喔，當然好了，我太想坐了!"
車開了一小段路後，那孩子轉過頭來，眼睛閃閃發亮，對我說："先生，你能不能把車子開到我家門前?"
保羅微笑，他知道孩子想乾什麼。那男孩必定是要向鄰居炫耀，讓大家知道他坐了一部大轎車回家。但是這次保羅又猜錯了。"你能不能把車子停在那兩個台階前?"男孩要求道。 男孩跑上了階梯，過了一會兒保羅聽到他回來了，但動作似乎有些緩慢。原來把他跛腳的弟弟帶出來了，將他安置在第一個台階上，緊緊地抱著他，指著那輛新車。
只聽那男孩告訴弟弟："你看，這就是我剛才在樓上對你說的那輛新車。這是保羅他哥哥送給他的喔!將來我也會送給你一輛像這樣的車，到那時候你就能自己去看那些在聖誕節時，掛視窗上的漂亮飾品了，就象我告訴過你的那樣。"
保羅走下車子，把跛腳男孩抱到車子的前座。興奮得滿眼放光的哥哥也爬上車子，坐在弟弟的身旁。就這樣他們三人開始一次令人難忘的假日兜風。
那個聖誕夜，保羅才真正體會主耶穌所說的"施比受更有福"的道理。

So the wolf and the dog went to the town together.
On the way ,the wolf saw that there was no hair around the dog’neck. He felt quite surprised,and asked him why it was like that? “Oh,it is nothing.”said the dog.”Every night my master puts a collar around my neck and chains me up.You will soon get used to it.”

我要自由
下午好。今天，我的話題是“我要自由”。這是一個關於一隻狗和一隻狼的故事。
一隻狼快要餓死了，一隻狗看見後問他，“這對你是不好的，為什麼不像我一樣穩定地幹活並有規律地獲得食物呢?”
狼說：“如果我有個地方住，我沒有意見。”狗回答說：“跟我到主人那裡去，我們一起工作。”於是狼和狗一起回到村子。
在路上，狼注意到狗的脖子上有一圈沒有毛，他很奇怪地問為什麼會那樣。
“噢，沒有什麼。”狗說，“我的主人每天晚上都用一條鐵鏈子拴住我，你很快就會習慣的。”“就是因為這個原因嗎?”狼說道，“那么，再見了，我的朋友，我寧願選擇自由。” 你想要自由嗎?謝謝大家。

【篇八】
Two dogs
A man has two dogs: a hound and a housedog. He trains the hound to help him hurt and teaches the housedog to watch the house. When he returns home after a day’s hunt, he always gives the house-dog some meat. The hound feels very angry. He says unhappily to the housedog, “Where I work very hard outside, you share my food.” “Don’t blame me, my friend. You should blame the master. He doesn’t teach me to hurt, but to share other’s food,” the housedog answers. Don’t blame children for the mistakes of their parent
兩隻狗
有一個人養了兩條狗：一條是獵犬，一條是看家狗。他訓練獵狗幫他打獵，教看家狗守家。當獵人打了一天獵回家後，總要分給看家狗一些肉，獵狗對此很生氣。它不高興地對看家狗說道：“我在外邊追捕獵物十分辛苦，而你在家什麼都不做，但你卻分享我的食物。”看家狗回答道：“不要責怪我，我的朋友。你應該去責備主人。他不教我打獵，卻只教我分享別人的食物。” 不要因為父母的錯誤而去責備孩子。
