Mozart(莫扎特) was born on January 27th, 1756 and died on December 5th, 1791. When he was three, he often had lessons with his elder (年长的) sister. His father took him through many different countries, where he played music for lots of people.
But some people didn't believe that a little boy could write such beautiful music. They asked him to stay in a room all by himself for a week and somebody watched the room all the time. In the week he finished a piece of music. After that, people believed that he could write beautiful music.
Mozart died when he was still a young man. During his short life he studied music and taught music and played music and wrote music. Even by working so hard, he couldn't make much money. Often he had to borrow money from his friends. But his music made him happy and for more than two hundred years his music has made other people happy, too.
If you go to Hong Kong by air, you will arrive at Hong Kong International Airport. Because there was not enough land, it was built out into the sea. It is in the part of Hong Kong called Kowloon. Kowloon is one of the two big cities in Hong Kong.
The other city is Hong Kong itself. It is on an island. You can get there by ship or through a tunnel under the sea. Much of Hong Kong is farmland and mountains.
The population of Hong Kong is over seven million. Many people there speak Chinese and English. Clothes, computers, radios and TVs are made in Hong Kong. You can buy all kinds of things, such as watches and computers.
Lots of people from all over the world travel to Hong Kong every year. You can watch dog- racing or motor-racing. Some places are quiet and beautiful. When you feel hot and tired, there are small cool gardens to rest in. There are also a lot of hotels to live in. Hong Kong is also a good place for wonderful Chinese food. You can enjoy many kinds of food, such as fish, vegetables and the famous Beijing duck. There is certainly a lot to see and to do in Hong Kong.
Many years ago, my father told me a story about helping a stranger who was seriously injured after being hit by a car.
Early in the morning he was going to work. He was in a hurry because that day he had an important meeting. Suddenly, he saw a man lying on the street and the man was bleeding. No one helped him. Some people in their cars passed by to look at him and then drove off. My father didn't hesitate(犹豫)to help him and took him to the nearest hospital. He was afraid that the man would die because of losing too much blood.
The incredible thing happened when my father wanted to leave the hospital. The police stopped him and said he could not leave the hospital until the man woke up. The police thought that my father had hit the man in the street. Although my father was annoyed by that, he couldn't do anything.
Fortunately, the man woke up four hours later and talked to the police, and then my father was released(释放). After he left the hospital, he felt happy because he had saved the man, but at the same time he felt stressed because if the stranger had died, he would have been in big trouble.
One day, a boy had a fight with one of his classmates. He didn't wait until school was over, and hurried home to his grandfather. He told him his story angrily. "He is really bad," the boy said, "and I hate him."
The grandfather said, "Let me tell you a story. When I was a boy, I sometimes hated others for what they did."
As the boy listened carefully, the grandfather went on, "There are always two tigers inside my heart. One is good and kind. He gets on well with everything around him. But the other is bad and unfriendly. Even the smallest thing will make him angry. He fights with everyone all the time, and for no reason. He can't think carefully because he always hates others. It is difficult to live with these two tigers inside my heart. They both try to control me."
The boy looked into his grandfather's eyes and asked, "Which tiger always controls you, grandfather?"
The old man said slowly and seriously, "The one that I feed. I always feed the good and kind tiger, so I never hate others and seldom get angry now."
My two little daughters and I usually go out and help others on weekends. Last Saturday we went to buy lunch for the beggars(乞丐)in the street. Then we went to the nearest restaurant.
I ordered 15 lunches from it and drove my car to hand them out.
We gave the lunches to the beggars. They were excited and we were happy to see that.
Then we noticed a small, old woman, asking for some money. We gave her our last lunch bag.
Before we got into the car, she started to speak to us, "Thank you so much. No one did anything like this for me before," she said with a smile. "Well, I'm happy that we were the first," I answered. "So, when will you eat your lunch? I asked.
She just looked at me with her big, tired brown eyes and said, "Oh, dear, I'm not going to eat this lunch. You see, I have a little girl of my own. I usually can't buy favorite food for her, but today she will be very happy!"
I don't know if my daughters found the tears in my eyes. I have asked many times if our help was too small to change(改变)anything. Yet at that time, I knew the truth of words: We cannot do great things—only small things with great love.
