      It was the golden season,could see the yellow leaves dancing in the cool wind. I felt lonely and life is uninteresting. But one day,the sound of a violin came into my ears. I was so surprised that I ran out to see where it was from. A young girl,standing in the wind,was lost in playing her violin.

      I had never seen her before. The music was so wonderful that I forgot who I was.

      Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the same place and I was the only listener. It seemed that I no longer felt lonely and life became interesting. We didn't know each other,but I thought we were already good friends.

      One day,when I was listening,the sound suddenly stopped. The girl came over to me.

      “You must like violin”,she said.

      “Yes. And you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.

      “I came here to see my grandmother,but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It is your listening every day that has encouraged me”’ she said.

      “In fact,it is your music that has given me those meaningful days”’ I answered. “Let us be friends. ”

      The girl smiled and I smiled.

      I never heard her play again in my life. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the girl. She is like a dream —so short,so bright that it makes life beautiful.

      There are many kinds of friends. Some are always with you? but don't understand you. Some say only a few words to you,but are close to you. I shall always think of those golden days and the girl with the violin. She will always bring back the friendship between us. I know she will always be my best friend.

      What do you think of a forest? What do you see? Just trees? Or do you see many other things,such as singing birds,colorful plants and wild flowers?

      The forest is a whole of its own. It is full of many different living things. But even though they are all different,they have one thing in common:they all need each other in order to live on.

      The trees feed the forest “people” by making food in their leaves; by using sunlight to join water and minerals from the soil and air. Their deep network of roots joins the soil together and stops it from dying out,making it possible for living things to live in it.

      Human beings are like the living things in the forest. We need one another in order to live. We need the farmers to grow our food,railroad and truck drivers to bring it to our shops and clerks (售員) to sell it to us. We need people to prepare our food and cook it and others to take our waste things away. Then,of course,we need doctors,nurses,government leaders , mailmen,telephone operators,and many others.

      We also need other human beings in another way. We need people for friendship,to talk over our problems,exchange ideas.Think how lonely and unhappy you would be if you lived all alone.

      Life is a matter of giving and taking. We need to help other people as much as we need other people to help us. Think what a good feeling you have when you have done something for someone else. You know,being a volunteer is so great!

() 3. According to the writer,human beings are the forest “people”.

   A. like   B. dislike   C. unhappy with   D. different from

() 4. The writer mainly wants to tell us.

   A. we need people for friendship

   B. the forest is a whole world of its own

   C. we need one another in order to live on

   D. the forest is full of different living things

() 5. Which one is the relationship (關(guān)系) between a forest and your life?
