Most people trade money for entertainment. Movies, concerts, and shows are enjoyable but expensive. If you think that you can’t have a good time without spending a lot of money, read on. A little resourcefulness and a few minutes of newspaper-scanning(瀏覽) should give you some pleasant surprises.
People may be the most interesting show in a large city. Walk through busy streets and see what everybody else is doing. You will probably see people from all over the world. you will certainly see people of every age, size and shape, and you will get a free fashion show, too. window-shopping is also a safe sport—if the stores are closed.
Check the listing in your neighborhood paper. Local colleges or schools often welcome the public to hear an interesting speaker or a good debate. The film or concert series at the local public library probably won’t cost you a penny. Be sure to check commercial(商業(yè)的) advertisements, too. A flea(跳蚤) market can provide hours of pleasant browsing. Perhaps you can find a free cooking crafts demonstration in a department store.
Plan ahead for some activities. It is always more pleasant not to have people in front of you in a museum or at a zoo. You may save some money, too, since these places often set aside one or two free admission days at slow times during the week. Pretend that you are a tourist from time to time, and get to know our city all over again including the indispensable sights that people travel miles to see. If you feel like taking an interesting walk, find a free walking tour, or plan one yourself. You will see your city in a new perspective once you know more about its history or its architectural(建筑的) treasures. With imagination and spirit of adventure you can quite easily find good entertainment at no cost at all.

One morning I wasted nearly an hour watching a tiny ant carry a huge feather. Several times, it   31   several obstacles in its path. And after a momentary pause it would make the necessary detour (繞道).   32  one point, the ant had to cross a crack about 10mm wide. After some   33 
thoughts, the ant laid the feather over the crack, walked   34  it and picked the feather up on the other side, then continued on its way. I was   35  by the cleverness of this ant. It was only a small insect, lacking in   36  yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore, discover and overcome.  37  this ant, like the other two-legged creatures   38  on the earth, also shares human failings.
After some time the ant   39  reached its destination—a flower bed and a small hole that was the entrance to its   40  home. It was there that the ant met its   41  .How could that large feather possibly   42  such a small hole? Of course, it couldn’t. So the ant, after all this   43  and using great brightness, overcoming problems all along the way, just gave up the   44  and went home. The ant had not thought the problem through   45  it began its journey and in the end the feather was   46  more than a burden. Isn’t our   47  like that?
We worry about our families; we worry about the   48  of money; and we worry about all kinds of things. These are all burdens—the things we pick up along life’s path, and drag them around the obstacles and over the cracks that life will bring, only to   49  that at the destination they are
  50  and we can’t take them with us.

The boy’s father had a talk with the family doctor．Could nothing be done? “I believe we could graft on a pair of outer ears，if they could be donated，”the doctor decided．So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man．Two years went by．Then, “You’re going to the hospital，son．Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need．But it’s a secret,” said the father．
The operation was a brilliant success．His talents blossomed into genius．School and college became a series of successes．Later he married and entered the diplomatic service．“But I must know!” he urged his father．“Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him．”
“I do not believe you could,” said the father，“but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet．”The years kept the secret, but the day did come …one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son．He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材)．Slowly and tenderly，the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick，reddish-brown hair to let out the secret．
