There was once a boy called Mario who loved to have loads of friends. He always
31 off how many friends he had at school. One day his grandfather said to him, “Mario, I
32 you a big bag of popcorn that you don’t have as many friends as you think. I’m sure many of them are nothing more than companions.”
Mario
33 the bet without hesitation. However, he wasn’t sure how to test
34 his schoolmates were real friends or not, so he asked his grandfather. The old man answered, “Wait a minute.” Then the old man left,
35 soon as though carrying something in his hands, but Mario could see
36 there.
“Take it. It’s a very special chair because it’s invisible (看不見(jiàn)). It’s rather
37 to sit on it, but if you take it to school and
38 to sit on it, you’ll activate (激活)its magic and you’ll be able to
39 who your real friends are. ”
Mario, brave and determined, took the
40 and set off for school. At break time he asked everyone to form a(n)
41 , and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. Having difficulty seeing it, Mario tried to sit on it and
42 straight onto his backside. Everyone around him had a pretty good laugh.
“Wait!Let me try again,” Mario said. But again, he missed the seat,
43 more surprised looks and a few catcalls (尖叫,喝倒彩). Mario didn’t
44 and kept trying to sit on the magic chair. But he kept falling onto the ground…until,
45 he tried again but didn’t fall. Looking around, Mario saw three of his best friends
46 him up. Meanwhile, many others he had
47 as friends had done nothing but make
48 of him.
And there, the show
49 to an end. Mario understood that true friends were those who
50 for him, and not just the companions that happened to be passing by. And someone who took joy in his misfortunes (不幸) was even less of a friend.
