As the cob(雄天鹅) flew towards Billings city, all sorts of troublesome thoughts filled in his head. He had never gone looking for a trumpet(小号) before. He had no money. He feared he might arrive after the shops had closed. He realized that in the whole continent he was undoubtedly the only cob on his way to a city to get a trumpet.
“This is a great adventure,” he said to himself. “Yet it is a noble searching. I will do anything to help my son Louis, even if I run into real trouble.”
Towards the end of the afternoon, the cob finally saw the churches, factories, shops and homes of Billings city. He circled, looking for a music store. Suddenly he found one. It had a very big, wide window, solid结实的) glass. The cob flew lower for a better look. A guitar, a piano, violins and then he saw what he wanted—a trumpet hanging by a shelf.
“Now it’s my time to act!” he said to himself. “Now it’s my moment for risking everything on one brave move, however shocking it may be to my emotions, however offensive(冒犯的) it may be to the laws that govern the lives of men. Here I go! May good luck go with me!”

While being absent from normal life for many days, you may find perhaps some of your clothes are overgrown with mushrooms (seriously)!1.. But at some universities in China, the scene is the total opposite.
Photos showing quilts (被子) aired have become a hit on social media.2..They are being dried on balconies (阳台), playgrounds and any available open areas at the universities ahead of the resumption (恢复) of school.
The quilts were brought by students from home and had almost gone moldy (发霉) but thanks to dorm-keepers they have gone through a process of sun sterilization (杀菌).
To prevent the quits from being misplaced, the dorm-keepers attached a note to each quilt with the dormitory area, bedroom number, and bed number on it.3..
“4. .Then, they will be collected to put away after getting fluffy. When it becomes cloudy or it’s likely to rain, we’ll collect all of them in time, about which the students don’t have to worry.” a keeper named Yan Fengjuan said.
The idea occurred to the dorm-keepers when the rooms started to smell during the routine check. 5. .
A.The dorm-keepers collected so many moldy quilts.
B.Their acts of kindness soon received wide praise.
C.Without regular wear, the clothing can grow mold.
D.There is no single quilt that is nowhere to be seen.
E.In this way, it would not cause trouble to the students.
F.The colorful quilts neatly cover the dormitory building.
G.When the sun is good, the quilts will be aired for 3 hours.
When it comes to dog training, I’ve come to understand that some things can be taught quickly, while others take a while. Do you know how I learned that lesson? From a French teacher I had in college.
It was beginner’s French, and from day one she had a “no English” class rule. I was confused by 99% of what she said, but I decided to give it a shot. I was excited as we began learning numbers and the alphabet, something I could easily follow, but when it came to putting together phrases, I was lost.
My teacher came up to me and said “quel est votre passe-temps favori?” which sounded like complete nonsense to me. I knew she was asking me a question, but I couldn’t figure out what it was. So I said “Sorry, I don’t understand.” Well, that broke the “no English” rule, so I just froze because I had no idea as to how to apologize in French.
So what did she do? She kept getting closer to me, repeating ‘quel est votre passe-temps favori?’ over and over, each time a bit louder, as if I had a hearing problem, rather than a complete shortage of comprehension.
I think about that class often. I really did feel hopeless, and the laughter from everyone else in class didn’t help. It’s not that she was a bad teacher. It’s just that she had very little patience for students like me who didn’t catch on immediately.
Well, it taught me to be more patient with Laika when learning new things. And since I don’t want her to be like the embarrassed kid in class, I don’t speak loudly at her or repeat myself when she doesn’t “get it.” I go back and figure out how I can help her understand and put meaning to my requests.
