My husband hasn't stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It is funny now but it wasn't at that time. Last Friday, after 1 all family shopping in town, I wanted a rest 2 catching the train, so I bought a piece of newspaper and some chocolate and went into the 3 coffee shop-that cheap, self-service place with long tables to 4 . I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep 5 , and went to get a cup of coffee. When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in 6 . It was one of those wild-looking youngsters, 7 dark glasses and torn 8 , and hair colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What 9 surprise me was that he had started to eat my chocolate. Naturally, I was annoyed. 10 , to avoid trouble-and really I was rather 11 about him, I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took 12 piece of my chocolate. I could 13 believe it. Still I didn't dare to 14 an argument. When he took a third piece, I felt more 15 than uneasy. I thought, "Well, I shall have the last piece." And I got it. The boy 16 me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out, "This 17 is crazy." Everyone stared. That was embarrassing (令人难堪的) enough, but it was 18 when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red-as red as 19 -when I realized I'd made a mistake. It wasn't my chocolate that he had been taking. There was mine, unopened, just 20 my newspaper. | ||||

Catherine Destivelle is a rock star. She loves rock, but she can't sing or play the guitar! She is a rock climber and a big star in France and Italy. She is the most famous woman climber in the world because she climbs without ropes. She climbs in many countries but most often in the French Alps near Chamonix, where she lives. She started climbing near her home in Paris when she was five. Then, at fourteen, she joined the French Alpine Club to learn more, but immediately she climbed better and more quickly than the older members of the club.

Sometimes you make a wish but when it comes, you decide you don't want it after all. That's what happened with Mickey's "birthday wish". Our family tradition is that you make a wish before you blow out the birthday candle. After he blew out the candle, Mickey told us that his wish was to win a prize in the Pine Ridge match. We quickly told Mickey that if you tell people your wish, your wish won't come true. So we lit the candle again, and he made another wish. Mickey and Paul were both supposed to start playing at 5:30. When Mickey reported to the check-in table, the game organizers told him his opponent had phoned and said he was coming late. The officials told Mickey he could choose not to play-and be declared the victor of the first round of competition. But Mickey said he didn't want to win by not playing. He wanted the experience of playing a great player. Finally, the beast showed up. He was tall, smiling and relaxed. His serve (发球) was like lightning. Mickey had some good returns, but he lost quickly, 6-1, 6-0. We congratulated Mickey on having some good returns and a few great serves. And we noted that he had won the first game. "I didn't win that game," Mickey said. "I think he just gave it to me at the beginning because he arrived late." "It was a birthday present," I said, smiling. "No, I refused my birthday present," Mickey said. In his eyes, his "birthday present" had been the chance to win by his opponent's forfeit. Mickey ended up winning the "consolation trophy"-a smaller prize we didn't know existed until Mickey earned it by being undefeated in the consolation bracket. We'll never know what Mickey's second wish was-the wish he didn't share with us. It seems to me that no matter how many birthdays you celebrate, as long as you enjoy challenges, you will never be "old". |
