“Neither do I.”

A thief (贼) went into the house and got Mary’s gold rings. The woman was worried and angry, but she didn’t speak. When the thief took away all the money, David and Mary kept silent.
The next morning, Mary went out early, leaving David alone at home. A travelling barber (理发师) walked in and asked, “Do you need a haircut, sir ” David said nothing, so the barber began his work.
“Well, how do you like it ” the barber said when he finished.
Again, no reply.
“Well, I think it might be better to cut this all off completely,” the barber advised. This was against David’s will, but he was not going to speak.
“Now,” the barber finally said, “you must pay me.”
But David had no money: “What ” the barber stormed. He went to the fireplace, got some soot (烟灰) and blew it all over David’s face.
Still, David kept quiet. The barber left angrily.
Two hours later, Mary returned and was shocked to see this: her poor husband sat on the floor, with no hair and a dirty face.

Among Chinese mythological figures, Nuwa impresses me most. In the story, the sky collapsed, bringing floods and disasters. Nuwa melted multicolored stones to repair the sky and cut off a turtle’s legs to support it. She also created humans and saved them from danger.
Nuwa shows great courage and selflessness. Her story reflects ancient people’s hope for a peaceful life and teaches us to be brave in the face of challenges. It’s truly a precious part of Chinese culture.
62．例文
How to Get on Well with Our Parents
As a middle school student, I sometimes face disagreements with my parents, just like many others. Though we care about each other, misunderstandings can still happen. Here’s how I improve our relationship.
First, understand and respect parents. For example, when my mom reminds me to study, I used to argue. Now I listen patiently and politely explain my plans. Showing respect helps avoid conflicts. Second, communicate more. I share funny stories about school with my parents at dinner and tell them when I feel stressed. This makes them feel included in my life. Third, help with housework actively. Seeing me take responsibility, they trust me more.
In short, showing respect, talking openly, and sharing responsibilities can bridge the gap between parents and us.
