21、I hid the long black bag in the garage（车库）two days ago. Tonight, in the dark, I would finally take it away. If everything went OK, it would be done by morning. But I had to be sure no one, not even my wife, saw me.

It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected. I said that the children were tired and needed to go to bed. It was partly true. But I wanted to leave early because I would finish my plan.

First I had to get the kids to sleep. That was not easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult. The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early. I told him 10: 30 p. m. was not early. As usual, I read them a bedtime story, but I read very slowly so that they would not know my secret.

I went out of the house and into the garage quietly. Taking one end, I pulled the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden. I was worried that my neighbours might see me and call the police.

It was already eleven o’clock. I started working, trying to make as little noise as possible. And that was not easy with a saw（锯子）and a hammer（锤子）.

After much hard work, I finally finished my work. I looked down at my watch. It was 4: 00 a. m. Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep. I was sure the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree house Father Christmas brought them this year.

22、Long ago, there was a queen who lived in a palace. She felt bored and said to her advisor (顾问), “All the things around me are too boring. I need a different kind of beauty. Let everyone know that I will hold a competition for the most beautiful thing in the world. And the prize will be this crown (王冠).”

Several days later, lots of people came to the competition and showed their things. The queen was not satisfied with what she saw. The advisor suggested, “What you are looking for cannot be brought to you. You must look for it by yourself. What about a journey?”

The queen was interested in the idea, so she started immediately. As she was on top of the hill near her palace, she looked down and suddenly something cried in her heart. “Why have I never found my palace so beautiful?”

The queen spent one year travelling. She saw beauty on the farm, in the forest and even in the stars twinkling (闪烁) at night on her journey. But what was the most beautiful thing? She thought it over. Suddenly, she understood beauty was everywhere. She should learn to enjoy the world. She left the pieces of her crown at different places that she had seen. As time went by, the queen’s crown got smaller and smaller until nothing was left.

She found the most beautiful thing at last. It was the world!
