　　A man is going to the house of a rich man.He sees a box of apples by the road.He says,"I do not want to eat those apples,because the rich man will give me a lot of good food." Then he takes the apples and throws them away into the dust.

　　He comes to a river.The water in the river is very deep and he can not go over.He waits for some time and then says,"I cannot go to the rich man's house today,because I can not cross the river." So he begins to go home.

　　He has nothing to eat that day.He is very hungry so he comes to the apples.He is glad to take them out of the dust.

　　Do you throw good things away;you may be glad to have them sometimes.

(閱讀理解) For many years，Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel． People，both in Japan and in America，dream of seeing this beautiful island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean(太平洋)．Their dreams always include (包括)sunset over the ocean．The sun drops like a ball of golden fire into the sea，and it drops so quickly that you can almost see it move．The sun leaves behind a glow(霞光)that lights the sky and shines in the quiet water．

　　People often have a quiet，peaceful time while walking along the beach．The first strangers to these islands centuries ago were Polynesian(波利尼西亞) people who came from Tahiti in canoes(獨木舟)．

　　Now no matter where the people come from，they really want to see the original(原始的) beauty of Hawaii．They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels．

　　When this catfish lays its eggs，it carries the m in its mouth．From what we know，it does not eat during this time．After the eggs hatch，the fish swims with its young to protect them．It opens its mouth when danger appears and the tiny fish swim inside．They swim out only when it is safe again．

　　These catfish may have a peculiarway to protect their young，but it seems to work．
