21、A long time ago, there was an emperor. He had a beautiful garden. In the garden, there was a little nightingale (夜莺) singing very beautifully.

The little bird was so unhappy about being kept in the cage that she stopped singing one day. The emperor was very angry. He ordered the scientists in his palace to make a robot bird for him. The bird could sing very beautifully, too. The emperor was pleased.
Soon the robot bird became old. It no longer sang beautiful songs. Just at that time, the emperor became very weak. One morning, while lying in bed, the emperor wanted it to sing once again. But the robot bird couldn’t sing any more. Suddenly the nightingale landed on the window. She began to sing her most beautiful song. The emperor was very happy! He became better and better each day.

23、Rich or poor,young or old,we all have problems.And unless we deal with our problems,we can easily become unhappy.Worrying about our problems can affect how we do at school.It can also influence the way we behave with our families.So how do we deal with our problems?There are many ways.
By learning to forget
Most of us have probably been angry with our friends, parents or teachers.Perhaps they said something you didn’t like, or you felt they were unfair.Sometimes, people can stay angry for years about a small problem.Time goes by,and good friendships may be lost. when we are angry, however, we are usually the ones affected.Perhaps we have seen young children playing together.Sometimes they have disagreements,and decide not to talk to each other.However,this usually does not last for long.This is an important lesson for us:we can solve a problem by learning to forget.
By regarding problems as challenges
Many students often complain about school.They might feel they have too much work to do sometimes,or think the rules are too strict.We must learn how to change these “problems” into “challenges”.Education is an important part of our development.As young adults,it is our duty to try our best to deal with each challenge in our education with the help of our teachers.
By thinking of something worse
By comparing yourself to other people,you will find your problems are not so terrible.Think about Stephen Hawking,for example,a very clever scientist,who regards his many physical problems as unimportant.He can’t walk or even speak,but he has become very famous and successful.We are probably quite healthy and smart.Let’s not worry about our problems.Let’s face the challenges instead.
