Dear Disney,

Last weekend, the four members of my family spent an enjoyable holiday at the Magic

Kingdom - Disneyland. And one event made our visit seem truly magical.

We got to the front of the line at Spa ce Mountain, only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice-cream on the ride. We were so excited that we all forgot ice-cream was not allowed on the ride.

Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do. Then Murphy, one of the staff(员工) members, came over. She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the  ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride. Gloria said, "Promise?" Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream, and she completely enjoyed the ride.

Sure enough, as we walked out the exit, there was Gloria's new friend with "her" ice-cream.

Now you and I both know what happened, because we know that an ice-cream won't last twenty

minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida. Murphy knew' what time we would get off the ride;

she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked

out the exit. Gloria said, "Thank you," but I'm sure she thought it was the same ice-cream.

We know that someone tried hard to make our visit special. Thanks so much for going

above and beyond!

Your fan,

Carmen Rivera

A rich man was riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. There was a young tree lying on the ground. The rich man asked the old man. "what kind of tree are  you planting there. My good man?"

"This is a fig(无花果)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! " shouted 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 smiled and said, "tell me, sir, did you eat figs when you were a boy?" '" Sure," the man did not know- why he asked this question.   The old man asked," who planted the fig trees?"
