    Nick, 13, is tall and strong. He is good at running. Two weeks ago a new student came. His name is David. He is thin and short. He plays soccer well, and he can run very fast. Larry told Nick about it. Of course, Nick did not believe it.

    "Why not have a race with him?" said Larry.

    "Good idea!" said Nick. "I'll have a race with him after school."

    After school, Nick went to the playground. He did some warm-up exercises for half an hour, and got ready for the race. He was sure that he could win it. Larry had to take part in a club activity that afternoon, so he could not watch the race between Nick and David.

    That evening Larry went to see Nick. They began to talk about the afternoon race. Nick's grandmother heard them in the next room. She came in and asked, "Which place?"

    "The second place," answered Nick.

    His grandmother was very happy to hear that, and asked, "Which place did David win, then?"

    "The last but one."

    Almost every family buys at least one copy of a newspaper every day. Some people can have as many as two or three different newspapers. But why do people read newspapers?

    Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings, such as battles lost and won, kings or rulers(统治者) overthrown(推翻) or killed, took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by words of mouth. Today we can read in our newspapers of important things that happen in faraway countries at the same time.

    Besides giving news from all over the world, newspapers tell us a lot of other useful information. There are weather reports, as well as radio, television and film guides. There are also book reviews, stories, and of course, advertisements(广告). There are all kinds of advertisements. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for the advertising space (广告版面), butitis worth the money because news of what they make in factories goes into almost every home in the country. For those who make newspapers, advertisements are also very important. Money from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a low price and still make a profit(利润).

    There is no doubt that mothers play an important role in the lives of their children. But what about a father's role? My belief is that fathers play just as important a role as mothers.

    Fathers give us support. They are the shore we swim to when our arms and legs feel tired. They are the strength we rely on as we take our first step into the world. Fathers can be gentle and powerful, but they probably have the simplest love we ever know.

    For daughters, the father is the first man they admire and the first man whose eyes shine with happiness when they look at them. He is the first man to fall in love with them.

    ________________, the father is their first idol and possible the only man they will ever feel comfortable loving.

    For mothers, the father of our children is the person we can trust to watch over the babies as closely as we would. We are protected in the knowledge of their love. A father is the person on the planet with whom we can do whatever we want… one who will be just as interested and never feel bored in the face of our devotion.

    Without fathers, we wouldn't be moms. I would like to thank them from all our hearts for this honor and for being our partners in this business of raising children.
