【推荐3】Yesterday Huck and I saw Injun Joe kill someone. ①But we were both afraid of him and we couldn’t tell anyone the true story. ②So we had to keep the secret in our heart. We went to the police station and took some food to poor Muff. He was lonely there. When I left the police station, I felt terribly sorry. Because Muff was not the killer, but he was in the police station by mistake. It was so difficult for me to fall asleep that night. The next day I went to the police station again and told the truth to the police. ③Then Muff ________. Now every one thought I was a hero（英雄）in the hometown.

From The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Many years ago, in a city in Arabia, there was a boy. His name was Aladdin. He lived with his mother in a little house, and they were very poor（贫穷）. Aladdin’s mother worked all day, and sometimes half the night, but Aladdin never helped her.

He was a lazy boy and he did not like to work. He only wanted to play all the time. Every morning he ran through the streets to the market. There, he talked and laughed and played with his friends all day. Then in the evening he went home for his dinner.

And every night his mother said to him, “Oh, Aladdin, Aladdin! You are a lazy boy-a good-for-nothing! When can you do some work, my son?”

But Aladdin never listened to his mother. One day in the market he met an old man in a long black coat. Aladdin did not see him, but the old man watched Aladdin very carefully. After some minutes he went up to an orange-seller（商贩）and asked, “That boy in the green coat—who is he?”“Aladdin, son of Mustafa,” was the answer. The old man moved away. “Yes,” he said quietly. “Yes, that is the boy. The right name, and the right father.” Then he called out to Aladdin, “Boy! Come here for a minute. Is your name Aladdin? Aladdin, son of Mustafa?” Aladdin left his friends and came to the old man. “Yes,” he said, “I am Aladdin, son of Mustafa.”

“Aladdin, I am your uncle, Abanazar,” the old man said. In fact（实际上）, the old man was not Aladdin’s uncle. He was a magician（魔法师）.

They have to buy a new diamond necklace that looks the same as Mrs. Fraser’s to return back. Luckily, she doesn’t find anything different. The new diamond necklace costs them 36,000 pounds. They don’t have enough money so that they have to borrow from their friends and classmates. From then on, Mathilde and her husband work hard to earn money.

Ten years later, they have returned all money they borrowed. Mathilde becomes old and ugly because of hard work. One day, she meets Mrs Fraser in the park and told her the truth of the diamond necklace. Mrs Fraser says in surprise, “Why didn’t you tell me ten years ago?
