One will feel happy when others flatter (奉承)him in his face. It is said that the best way of flattering someone is to give him a “top hat” to 73 .
A student was going to leave the capital to become an official in a city far away. Before he started, he came to say 74 to his teacher.
“It is not an 75 job to be a good official,” his teacher warned. “You must be strict 76 yourself and never be careless.”
“Don’s worry about me, sir.” the student answered. “I have already 77 one hundred top hats, which will 78 those people quite happy.”
“But we are real gentlemen! 79 could a real gentleman do such a thing?” his teacher was a bit angry. “Never forget 80 I taught you in class!”
“You are always right, sir. I also hate such things. But sir, 81 no one real gentleman like yourself can be seen in the world now,” said the student. It seemed that he had to do so.
After hearing this, the teacher was 82 . “What you said is true!”
“Of my one hundred top hats, I have ninety-nine 83 .” the student said to his friend later.

Snack time is a part of the day for children of all ages. But new research suggests that kids snacking in big groups could be at risk for obesity.
Scientists from American University looked at the eating behavior of 54 kids between the ages of 2 and 6. At snack time, the scientist watched the amount of food each child ate while they were in groups of either three or nine. According to the study, the more children there are in a group, the more likely they are to eat more. Those in the larger group ate nearly 30 percent more than those in the smaller group, and they actually ate faster.
Since this is the first such study in children, scientists are quick to point out the importance of encouraging healthy habits in kids as early as possible.
“If you know kids eat more in large groups, it seems perfect to use this information to keep snack groups small or use small tables,” says Dr. Jana Klauer, an expert in New York.
Smaller groups would allow for a quiet and more relaxing environment-a perfect chance to teach children about food, manners and how to know when they feel full. “This would have an effect on kids' eating,” adds Klauer. “They would slow down and eat less.”

Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.
The reporter was talking to them about being important.
“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.
The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the Whiter House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”
The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.
The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”
The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”
“No, I don’t.” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”
“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.
“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, ‘it’s for you.’”
