John and Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well. But one day their good relationship broke.

One morning John woke up to find a stream(小溪) between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought. Then John met a carpenter(木匠).

John said. “My neighbour Bob dug(挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence(柵欄)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more.”

The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that makes you happy.” About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!

It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched(伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!”

Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Bob.

Later they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”

Two Chinese farmers sang In Spring in their small room after drinking on a late August evening in Beijing. A friend put their song on the Internet. And soon they became stars around China.

Wang Xu, 49, is from Henan, and Liu Gang, 34, is from Heilongjiang. They are among the millions of farmers who have gone to cities to work. "Although nobody pays attention to the music, I am singing happily, in streets, under bridges or in wild country, with no credit card, no girlfriend or a home with hot water, but only a guitar," they sing." It is just like the life we live now," Wang said." We are poor farmers, and you know people won't care about us." Their song is loved by millions of Chinese, including the people who are also from the countryside. Many people said they cried after listening to the song.

"I love music, and also want to make more money," Wang said. "I never dreamed of standing on such a big stage." Liu came to Beijing in 2003. "I wanted to try my luck in the big city," he said. And now their dreams of music have come true. They are really the luckiest of all the farmers in China.
