One morning, my family and I woke up and went to eat breakfast—until we heard barking and scratching at the door. When my mom opened the door, we saw a puppy (小狗). We looked around to see if we could find its owner, but there was no one. We took it inside and fed it.
Regardless of how badly I wanted to keep the puppy, we decided to look for the owner. We looked all day, but we failed. We talked about whether we should keep looking or if we should look the next day. We all agreed to look for its owner the next day.
So the next day my family and I looked for the dog’s owner. It was so hard looking for its owner. We were looking for flyers (传单) that involved the puppy, but no luck.
“We won’t stop looking,” my mom and dad said. We were going to take care of the puppy until we found its owner.
When we woke up in the morning, we went to a pet shop to buy the puppy some dog food. After that we went back home to feed the puppy, and then we gave it a nice bath. It was so dirty that the fur was black and sticky, but after we gave it a bath, it turned white. And I noticed there was a collar (项圈) on him, which said “Coby”. After a while, we went to look for the puppy’s owner, but my mom stayed at home, and it was only my dad and me this time.
We continued looking until we found a flyer. We looked at it. It said, “Lost Dog: Please Help if Found.” Then we looked at the picture; it looked exactly like Coby. We were all happy we found a flyer that was for Coby.
There was a phone number on the flyer.

We found the lady’s house, and then we knocked on the door.

Professional explorer Leo Houlding is no stranger to climbing. He’s been doing it since he was 10 years old and has made many expeditions across the globe including to the very top of Mt. Qomolangma, remote Arctic and Antarctic peaks, Yosemite Valley, and jungles of South America.
In 2020, Leo decided to celebrate his 40th birthday by showing his two children, Jackson and Freya, and wife Jessica, what he loves most: climbing cool mountains and exploring new lands. The family would spend four days together climbing the north ridge (山脊) of Piz Badile (巴迪莱峰), part of the picturesque Alps on the border of Switzerland and Italy. Their destination was the top of Piz Badile, with nearly 11,000 feet tall.
The family have previously climbed a few other mountains in Europe but the Piz Badile climb was harder than the ones they climbed. In 2019, Leo and Jessica, together with their kids Freya and Jackson who were only six and two separately at the time, skied down Les Grandes Platiers in Flaine unassisted and unsupported. Leo reported this was one of his family life goals.
However, Freya wasn’t that confident as expected this time. So Jessica decided to encourage her by telling their dad’s story.
Their dad Leo grew up in the Lakes, a mountainous region in North West England, and started rock climbing at the age of 10. By the time Leo was 16 he had become the British Junior Indoor Climbing Champion. When he was only 18, Leo landed in Yosemite Valley with the similarly youthful Patch Hammond and made a landmark ascent (攀登). Leo is brave and never gives up in the face of difficulty.

Aaron was very excited when he heard about the summer camp. It would be more than a week-long experience with no parents around! Besides, they would play games and have campfires. And also a sports competition would be held between teams from different camps, and Aaron loved sports.
As a mom, Lucinda didn’t want him to go, because the camp was miles away, and he was just ten.
“All of my friends are going. mom! Please! I want to go!”
“But honey.” said Lucinda, “we could do something different this summer. . . perhaps a family trip?”
“No, Mom!” Aaron insisted (坚持说). “We always do that. . . Please, Mom! Please!”
At Aaron repeated request, Lucinda agreed finally. Aaron went to the camp happily.
Four days later, Lucinda received a sudden phone call. “What’s the matter, honey? Why are you crying?” Lucinda asked, worried. Aaron cried, “Take me away from here, Mom. Please!”
“But why? What happened?” asked Lucinda.
“There’s a running competition tomorrow among different camps, but they wouldn’t allow me to attend. Other boys are all older than me, and they think I can’t compete with them. I feel very bad, Mom.”
Lucinda walked to her bedroom and took out a file (文件夹)from a drawer (抽屉). She then drove to Aaron’s camp. She went to the camp director’s office.
“Sir, I’m Lucinda Jones. My son Aaron is in your camp. I came here because of what happened to him,” she explained. “Aaron told me he wouldn’t be allowed to join your upcoming competition because he’s younger than the other kids. He was very sad. He has great potential (潜力) for sports. Could you please give him a chance?”
“Well, Mrs. Jones,” said Mr. Harrington. “Didn’t Aaron tell you they’re all 13-yeard-olds? Aaron is only ten.”

Honesty Carries Kindness
By morning, Fred knew what he had to do. He had not slept a wink but had sat in the corridor all night thinking. He stretched his body and went back to his room. His brother Gray was still asleep.
It was Saturday and there was no school. Fred’s mother asked him to do some shopping for her. On his way out, he glanced at his motorcycle which was parked at the side of the house. There was no hiding the broken front lamp and the dent (凹痕) and scratches (刮痕) on the side of the motorcycle. Fred took a deep breath and went to complete his shopping.
It was late morning before Fred was free to carry out his plan. He marched down the road to Mr. Green’s house. When he arrived and called out the usual greeting, Mrs. Green appeared at the doorway and greeted him warmly. She invited him in and served him tea and some cakes. Fred nervously asked to speak to Mr. Green. She told him that her husband was out but would be home very soon. Sure enough, the elderly man returned in ten minutes.
Fred cleared his throat a few times while his host waited patiently. Finally, he started to talk, admitting that he had come to take responsibility. “I’m so sorry. I was careless yesterday and knocked into your parked car in front of the post office,” said Fred.
Mr. Green looked at the 17-year-old youth, surprised. “So, you are saying that you dented my car and then ran away?”
Fred went red. He nodded. “I’m sorry for not telling you earlier. I was too frightened.”
The elderly man smiled and said, “but you’re not too frightened to acknowledge the mistake now?” Fred said with uncertainty, “I could not sleep last night thinking about it. I knew I had to do the right thing.”
Mr. Green was silent for a minute before saying in a kind voice, “you think that it is the right thing to cover up for your brother?”
Paragraph 1:
Fred went pale, his eyes wandering.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Fred thanked Mr. Green for his kindness and what he had taught him.
