It was at an exhibition of the artist's works organized by the Red Cross. I was invited as a special gto attend the exhibition. During this period, two cute girls of 16 or 17 years old came to me and asked me for my signature(签名).
"I haven't brought my pen. Is the pokay?" Actually, I knew they wouldn't r. I just wanted to show a well-known writer's good manners to the creaders.
"Certainly," the young girls readily a. I could see they were very excited. Of course, their excitement also made me feel more pleased and satisfied. One of the girls hher fine notebook to me. I turned over the cover of the notebook, wrote a few words of encouragement n , and signed my name. The girl read my signature, frowned (皱眉), looked at me carefully and asked, "Aren't you Robert Charboss?"
"No," I told her proudly, "I'm the author of Alice Adams, the wof two Pulitzer Prizes."
The young girl turned to the oshrugged (耸肩) and said, "Mary, lend your rubber to me." At that moment, all my pturned into a bubble (泡泡) immediately. Since then, I always warn myself: no matter how outstanding you are, don't think highly of yourself.

Two little boys
Two little boys had two little toys
Each had a wooden horse.
Joyfully they played each summer's day
Soldiers (士兵) both, of course.
Then Jack broke off his horse's head,
Sad for his toy, then cried with joy
As his young friend joe said:
Did you think I would leave you crying
When there's room on my horse for two?
Climb up here, Jack, and don't be crying
I can go just as fast with two
When we grow up we'll both be soldiers
And our horses will not be toys
And I wonder if we'll remember
When we were two little boys.
Long years past, war came so __________
Bravely they marched away.
Guns roared loud and in the mad crowd
Wounded and dying lie
Up goes a shout, a horse rushes out
Out from the crowd, to where Joe lay
Then came a voice he knew:
Did you think I would leave you dying
When there's room on my horse for two?
Climb up here, Joe, we'll soon be flying
I can go just as fast with two.
Now we are both real soldiers
And our horses are not toys
And I remember
When we were two little boys.
I want to be Spiderman.
