Four boys were at the same school. They were good friends, so they often studied and played together. They went to school every day by taxi.
One day one of the boys said, “There is a test this morning. Let’s go to school late. Then we won’t have to take the test.” “What can we tell the teacher?” One of the boys said. “He’ll be angry. We’ll need a good excuse. ”
The boys thought for several moments, then one of them said, “Let’s tell him that our taxi had a flat tire(爆胎).” “That’s a good idea,” the other boys said. “We’ll tell him that.”
They arrived at school an hour later. The test was finished.
“Why are you late?” the teacher asked, “You miss the test.” “Our taxi had a flat tire,” one of the boys said.
The teacher thought for a moment, then he said, “Sit down, one of you in each corner of the room.” The four boys did this. Then the teacher said, “Write the answer to this question on a piece of paper: Which tire was flat?”

Look at the cat on the left. Find anything strange?
In 1961, a man found a strange cat on his farm in Scotland. The cat’s ears were folded（折着的）, bent（弯曲）forward, on its head. In fact, this was a new kind of cat. People named it the “Scottish Fold”.
The Scottish Fold has a round head and big eyes. Its neck and legs are short. They make it look very lovely. Interestingly, all the Scottish Folds are born with straight and unfolded ears. And when they are growing up day by day, some cats’ ears will begin to fold. So, the Scottish Fold comes in two types: folded ears and straight ears.
There is a nickname（昵称）for the Scottish Fold. It is the “Messenger（信使）of Peace”. Why? Because the Folds can get along well with other cats. They are sweet and friendly animals. And unlike some other cats, they can even get along well with dogs! In many different places, for example, at a noisy house or in a cat show, you can see them playing with other animals happily.
Well, when you come to a new school, do you think it’s difficult to feel comfortable in the new place? Perhaps you can learn from the Scottish Fold, which is always sweet and friendly to others.
