Forty years ago, I was in Grade One. One day,I was asked to go to the principal’s office（校长办公室）. I was really nervous. When I pushed the heavy door open. I found my parents were sitting in the office,too. My father walked to me,with some of my drawings in his hand. “Why do you only use a black crayon(蜡笔)when you draw?” he asked.
I said nothing. “Show me to your desk,” said my father.
So we returned to my classroom. My father pulled out my crayon box. There was only one black crayon in it. “Where are the rest of your crayons?”
I quietly explained that I’d given all the other crayons to my friends. I shared my things with others as my parents had taught me.
Then I looked at my father, then at the principal—both their faces were red. Years later, I learned that my father’s face was red because of anger and the principal was red because he was embarrassed(尴尬的). When the principal saw all my pictures, he thought that I had a deep emotional（情绪的）problem. So he had called my parents in to discuss “my problem”.
In fact, I was too shy to ask for my “shared” crayons back. I didn’t stand up for myself!
That night, my father told me about the difference between sharing and giving. He also gave me a new box of crayons. He said, “These crayons are for you. I don’t want you to share or give these crayons to anyone else. ”

Hundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland, but there were too many Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.
One night, the leader of Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight, my men,” he said. “Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win or we will die.”
They were all very tired, so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they,too,were very tired,and one by one, also fell asleep.
The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside, taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more, the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment, they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.
The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.
