One day, an owner of a boat asked a man to paint a boat for him. When the man was painting, he found there was a hole and repaired (修理) it. When he finished painting, he got his money and left.

The next day, the owner of the boat came to the painter and sent him with a nice check (支票) and it was much higher than the money for painting.

"You have paid me for painting the boat!" he said in surprise.

"But this is not for the paint job. It's for repairing the hole in the boat," answered the owner of the boat.

"It was just a small service. You don't have to pay me such a high price!"

Then the owner told the man what happened. When he asked the man to paint the boat, he forgot to tell about the hole. After the paint was dry, his children took the boat to fish but they didn't know the hole. The owner wasn't at home at that time. So when he came back and heard they had taken the boat, he was worried. Luckily, his children came back soon from fishing. He was excited.

Then he checked the boat and found that the man had repaired the hole!

"You saved the lives of my children! I don't have enough money to pay your ‘small' good deed," said the owner.

A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals (专家). If sports aren't going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore (酸痛的) the next day? Wouldn't it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons? In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports.

First of all, sports are a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you healthy and strong. It also helps you stay in a good condition. When you exercise, your body makes endorphins (安多芬) which give you more energy and make you feel happier.

Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect (尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules.Theyalso teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed.

Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important.

Maybe you're not going to become a sports professional, but that doesn't matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person.

WeRun(微信运动) is an app in WeChat. It lets users see their daily step counts. One of its most popular things is a leaderboard(排行榜) among friends. Users can see how their results are compared (比较) with others.

As a growing number of people use WeRun, we wonder what we can learn about a person just from knowing his step counts. Here we take a closer look:

Fewer than 50 steps: Anyone who takes fewer than 50 steps in one day may be ill or sad. Or maybe he or she is just too lazy to get out of the bed!

50-500 steps: It's easy to have a few hundred steps. Even going shopping on foot will be enough.

501-8,000 steps: Most students and workers will take between 501 and 8,000 steps a day. These step counts are often in the middle of the leaderboard. But your parents will always give your step counts athumbs-up(It's their job to care about you!).

8,001-30,000 steps: Salespeople and members of film workers are likely to take these many steps a day, as they are always on the move.

More than 30,000 steps: Mostly, these step counts can be on the top of the leaderboard. They're postmen, porters, cleaners and so on. They're the people who help us live easy and comfortable lives and keep our environment nice and clean.

Nowadays, more and more people use WeRun, from the young to the old. To some degree(在某种程度上) , a person's WeRun data (数据) can show his or her character and personal life.
