   How do young children learn good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? More and more parents worry about the violent images(暴力形象) their children see on TV and on the Internet. So many parents are turning to fairy tales. They want to teach their children how to behave in society by this way.

   It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil(邪惡) very clearly. When children hear the tales,they learn to care about others* feelings. In each tale,they can see there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We can choose to do good actions,rather than bad ones,in our lives.

   What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea，a poorly dressed girl says she is a princess. Few people believe her,so she is given a difficult test. When she passes the test,we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In Pinocchio，a wooden puppet(木偶) turns into a boy when he- finally leams how to tell the truth.

   Teaching values is probably the main reason for encouraging children to read fairy tales. These tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that have been accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.

   At 73,Barbara Joe still remembers hearing President Kennedy announcing the creation of the Peace Corps. It’s a volunteer program and it provides help to people in developing countries. Barbara Joe was 23 years old then and she showed great interest in the idea. But she was already married and she would soon have her first child.

   Over the years,Barbara did volunteer work occasionally and visited many developing countries in South America. In 1998,she finally became a full-time volunteer and joined the Peace Corps. She was 60 at that time.

   The Peace Corps has no age limit,but volunteers are often young. The selection (挑選) process is strict and only one in ten is accepted. Barbara was by far the oldest person in the training course.

   Barbara was a Peace Corps volunteer in Honduras for three and a half years. At that time she taught the local people about AIDS prevention,gave them medicine,and even helped a few mothers give birth to babies. Her daughter went to visit her during her stay. She was surprised to see how happy her mother was and how well she dealt with the terrible living conditions.

   Barbara has written a book about her experience. “You are never too old to follow your dreams”’ she says. “It's never too late to reinvent(以新形象示人) yourself."

   In my work I travel a lot and I stay in different hotels,so my perfect weekend is to stay at home with my family and friends. I live in London with my wife. On Friday nights,we often go to a dub — we all love dancing.

   On Saturdays,we get up late and I make breakfast; that’s important to me. Then I sit at my piano and play for a couple of hours. I don't write songs,and I just play. My cat listens. Sometimes in the afternoon we go shopping in Portobello Market. In the evening,we often watch a foreign film.

   After that I like playing cards with my friends,sometimes until early Sunday morning. We sleep late on Sundays,but then I like cooking Sunday dinner. I really enjoy cooking. In the evening I call my parents. They like hearing about my week.
