When they saw their baby， they both cried out， “My goodness！ How small it is！ It’s hairless and toothless！ It’s a monster （怪物）！” They sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.

We have to dig a mineral （礦物） from the Kun Lun Mountains when the snow melts for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years. So we need twelve years.”

Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together： piano lessons， movies， swimming， and horseback riding.

When I was 13， my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters， and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding （婚禮） and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes， and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back， stamped “Address Unknown.” I had no idea how to find Linda.

Over the years， I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.

One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman—Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans.” I thought， but I still wrote to her.

She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin！” she said excitedly. “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.”

Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much， even after 40 years， laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure： We won’t lose each other again！

A rich man was once riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. On the ground lay a young tree， ready to be planted. The rich man called out to the old man， “What kind of tree are you planting there， my good man？”

“This is a fig（無(wú)花果）tree， sir.” He said.

“A fig tree？” the rich man was very surprised. “Why， how old are you， may I ask？”

“I am ninety years old.”

“What！” cried the rich man. “You’re ninety years old. You are planting a very young tree now and it’ll take years to give fruit. You certainly don’t hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree.”

The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile， “Tell me， sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy？” “Sure，” the man did not know why he asked this question. “Then tell me this，” he said， “who planted the fig trees？” “Er... I don’t know.” “You see， sir，” went on the old man. “Our forefathers （祖先） planted trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”
