在小区的路上，蝴蝶在花丛中飞舞，小鸟在枝头上鸣叫。一个六岁的小男孩，穿着短袖短裤一蹦一跳地跑着。

这便是我的小表弟——轩轩。他是一个天真可爱、活泼好动的捣蛋鬼。他喜欢扮鬼脸来吓我们，我们也总是装作很害怕的样子。他还喜欢扮演成动画片里的卡通人物，在沙发上蹦来蹦去。

在一个阳光明媚的下午，我和表妹、轩轩在小区里捉迷藏。我和妹妹一下子躲进了树丛。轩轩捂着眼睛假装看不清，过了一会儿，他就故意大喊：“姐姐们，藏好了没有？”我和妹妹心照不宣，一声不吭，心想：我才不上你的当呢，我们一答应不就暴露位置了吗？我悄悄地观察轩轩，只见他东张西望，一本正经地喊：“快出来吧，我已经找到你们了！”他大摇大摆地走着。看着他那笨拙的样子，我禁不住大笑起来。轩轩听见了，立马跑过来，大笑道：“哈哈，我找到你了！”他神气十足地走到我旁边，边走边回头对我说：“你别逃了，我好不容易才找到你。”

他停了一会儿，坏主意又涌上心头。轩轩拉着我的衣角，不停地摇着我的手臂，央求我和他一起找表妹。看着他可怜的模样，我怎么忍心拒绝呢？我们一路找，发现了表妹的踪迹。于是，我悄悄对轩轩说：“你快看那儿，那有一朵蓝色花儿唉。”我想让他觉得是自己找到表妹的，这应该会比我帮忙找到让她更高兴的。他随着我的指点跑了过去，大声惊叫起来：“我看到你啦，快出来投降吧！”轩轩高兴得手舞足蹈，我被他那可爱的样子逗笑了。表妹闻声而逃，轩轩紧追不舍，就像警察追赶小偷一样。他一蹦一跳的，脸上洋溢着幸福快乐的笑容。忽然，他回头冲我喊：“姐姐，我跑不动了，你帮我追她吧。”他喘着粗气，一下子蹲在了地下。我便全力配合，一下子把表妹“捉拿归案”，他也紧追其后，乐得哈哈大笑。我们在欢声笑语中度过了一个快乐的下午。

这就是我小表弟，他就是这样一个天真烂漫，调皮可爱的男孩，他总能给我带来许多快乐。

我的小表弟已经一岁零四个月啦！他的名字叫胡添乐小名叫乐乐。舅舅、舅妈希望他每天快乐！

他既可爱又淘气，弯弯的眉毛下长着一双水汪汪的眼睛，胖嘟嘟的小脸蛋……有一次奶奶给我和乐乐一人一瓶酸奶，我喝了几口就认真看书去了，乐乐趁我不注意把酸奶咕咚咕咚的喝完了，我看完书正想拿起酸奶喝，可我却喝了个空瓶子。奶奶和妈妈看了哈哈大笑，我心想有这么好笑吗？不就是喝了几口空气。

这就是我又可爱又淘气的小表弟乐乐，对了，我的小弟还很爱笑。每次到奶奶家的时候，小表弟就笑着朝我猛扑过来，我就热情地抱着他亲了又亲。

大家是不是很想见见我的小表弟，但是你们千万不要带玩具啊！他可是个破坏大王！什么玩具只要到他的手里就会被解体。我想他长大以后会成为一名伟大的发明家呢！乐乐你千万不要让姐姐失望哦。

叫斌斌，他长得虎头虎脑，伶俐可爱，活像画上的卡通人物。

去年春天，舅舅带他来我家做客。那些日子可真有意思。一天斌斌翻着我的作业本。“写错啦！写错啦！”他突然喊起来，接着就操起橡皮擦去我写的“牛”字，再拿起笔，歪歪斜斜地写了个“午”字。

又有一次，我正在画画，斌斌也吵着要画，我只得依了他，说：“我画脑袋，你来舔耳朵，好么？”他答应了。

看着他添完耳朵似的得意样，心想：这小家伙真霸道！既然你知道把耳朵添在左右脑，何不哄他一次，便说：“咋们再来一次，这回画你吧！”“画自己还不容易！”他扬起小脸。

我画了个侧面人，并特意描浓了鼻子，不出我所料，他在鼻尖和后脑勺添了两片耳朵！我连声喊：“快看斌斌这小怪物！”斌斌听了，马上画了一个满脸都是大大小小的耳朵的“怪物”，说：“这是欧阳姐姐。”

这两个“怪物”到现在我还保留着，等斌斌长大了，我再送给他。

从小跟我关系最好的就是我大表弟了！跟亲哥们儿一样。

那张肥嫩的脸上挂着深蓝框的眼镜，镜片下的眼睛显得更小，以至于笑起来只有一条缝。眼睛小，但嘴巴挺大，一口塞下一个手掌大的包子对他来说不成问题，肚子也大，不过倒挺高，158的个儿比我重10公斤（110斤左右）。

肚子大但游泳还挺快的，上个暑假一起学游泳，成绩比我好得多，教练还用广东腔的普通发说：“看看你表弟，游得可快的嘞，你这个当哥的还没弟快，怎么搞的。”他手脚协调，有规律地“收翻蹬夹”，不一会儿就游出十几米远。唯一不足的就是胆子小，不敢游到对面的深水区，到一半就停了。我问他，他就说：“我没认真游……”

他还是CCTV科教频道的粉丝之一。每晚吃完饭拿椅子坐在电视前准时收看节目，“大真探”“荒野求生”“动物世界”这些节目他都看，也许在大街上见到一条狗他也知道是什么品种。一看起来就认真得不能再认真，叫他去玩也只是挥了挥手，可专注了。

三个表弟里就属他关系跟我最好，我10个月大他就出生，从小一起玩捉迷藏，一起趴舅妈床上看戴拿奥特曼，一起去流沙上学前班，那一段段回忆至今都在我的脑海里挥之不去。

每当躺在一起睡觉时，都会聊上好久，仿佛记忆的门开了锁。他是我表弟，我的“亲弟”！

我有一个表弟，叫“唐寅”，他今年12月就9岁了。身高1米37，体重60斤左右。读3年级了！

表弟喜欢看书。去年他生日的时候，在广州上班的阿姨，给他买了一箱的《百问百答》。开学的时候，第30版的《百问百答》开版了，表弟听后，忙攒钱，买书。终于，功夫不负有心人，没过几天，终于买下了一本

《百问百答》，表弟还向我吹牛，看我有没有这本书呢！

表弟的力气很大。去年的春季运动会，他参加了扔垒球大赛。只见，射完第三次，正好射到了国旗台的旁边。因此，得到了全年级第五名的称号！

表弟喜欢当大哥，一次，我问他：“你是喜欢到巴江去，还是喜欢到南乡去？”表弟想了一下，不假思索地说：“当然是南乡啦！”“为什么？你是我们家最小的一个人，别人都让着你，难道你觉得这不好么？”表弟慢悠悠的说“因为我想去南乡当大哥！”……

这就是我的表弟！

“姐姐，姐姐！姐姐，姐姐，我来啦！”

瞧，才三岁的小表弟——王豪豪来啦！他长着一条弯弯的眉毛，一双核桃似的大眼睛，还有一张甜甜的小嘴巴。“爷爷好，奶奶好……”这些话他经常挂在嘴边，逗得爷爷奶奶眉开眼笑。小区楼下的爷爷奶奶每次看到他，总喜欢亲亲他、抱抱他，可王豪豪却踮起脚尖一溜烟地跑了。

说起走路，王豪豪的走路可是最有风格的。一是快，二是踮脚，三是停不下来。快指的是他走路的速度很快，像匹草原上奔跑的小马驹，连我这个跑步老手有时候都不如他呢！踮脚指的是他走路喜欢踮起脚尖，像跳芭蕾舞那样。停不下来指的是他精力旺盛，喜欢东走走、西看看，妈妈说他像电视广告里的炫迈口香糖，一刻也停不下来。

有一次，我们一起去商场逛街。小外婆要试穿衣服，她要我暂时照顾王豪豪。可他就是不听我的话，一会儿窜到衣服堆里，一会儿窜到人群堆里，我提心吊胆地跟在后面，一刻也不敢放松，可还是把他给跟丢了。我赶忙叫上妈妈一起分头寻找。突然，我的脑海中闪过豪豪刚才嘴里不停念叨着“电梯”二字，我赶紧跑到电梯口，果然找到了他。一看到我，王豪豪就眯起了小眼睛，咧开了小嘴巴，踮起脚尖又跳起了“芭蕾舞”，甜甜地对我说：“姐姐，我们一起坐电梯吧！”我假惺惺地答应了一声，说：“好。”“丁咚”一声，这时电梯门开了，只见王豪豪以“迅雷不及掩耳之势”的速度冲进了电梯里，看得我目瞪口呆，只好陪他坐了一回电梯。

这就是我有趣的小表弟，你喜欢他吗？

今年暑假，表弟的生日又到了，听他说：“盼过今朝，又待何夕？人生能有几多愁，恰似生日还没来。”

在他口中的美妙的日子终于来了。阿姨说是他的节日，换他当家中之王了！他异常的高兴，好像中了彩票一样，到处诉说他的开心。好像空气中弥漫着喜悦的种子，深深地扎根在表弟的心里，是啊，生日到了，确实会让人乐，有哪个孩子不喜欢过生日啊。这一天多么的神圣啊。

早上，我被一曲美妙的音乐唤醒，哦吼，原来是表弟在唱歌呢，听他说今天早上吃完早饭要就去爬山，然后去公园玩玩就回家休息一下，然后吃午饭，再睡午觉。睡完午觉醒来时随意活动，等傍晚去泉州玩。晚上回来时吃一回大餐，庆祝生日。

中午，吃完了午饭，表弟打开电视机，正好看见一个妈妈在生育，看她的神情多么痛苦，费尽了九牛二虎之力才成功地把孩子生下来，她却倒在床上，看样子应该是去世了，多么可惜啊，孩子降世了，母亲却要去世，这是为什么？为什么要一命换一命？结局不能完美一些吗？还好，阿姨生他时还是平平安安的，我的心里，多了一丝欣慰。

表弟的兴致勃勃也已经消失了……他叹了一口气 ，说到：“原来我一直没有发现，生日其实也是妈妈的日。”他的笑脸已经不见，剩下的只是失望与无趣。

这时，我说：“不如我们来给你妈妈一个惊喜吧！”表弟听了脸上全是愕然。显然，他从来没给阿姨惊喜过。

他虽然很惊讶，但是还是反应过来了说：“好啊！” 我们开始商量如何给阿姨惊喜。

晚上，全家人为表弟庆祝生日，他还是皱着眉头。阿姨问起，我才一五一十地说了出来，表弟也说：“妈妈，原来我一直都很不明白你，其实今天应该是你的节日才对！”阿姨却在这时说：“你们两兄弟长高了，变胖了！”我们都很疑惑，什么意思啊？姨丈说道：“长高了，长胖了不就是长大了吗？呵呵呵……”表弟对我使使眼神，我便说要上洗手间，表弟也跟去，我们两拿出了中午睡觉时间做的“蔬菜花”。藏在身后，然后趁大家不注意献给妈妈。表弟便让妈妈坐长位，为她戴上哈哈帽。今天是母亲的节日。

今年表弟的生日，是一次不一般的节日！或许很多人都意识到了，妈妈怀胎十月，幸幸苦苦，冒着生命危险生下来，我们的生日应该是每年的第二个母亲节！

这夜晚里，我们在欢笑声结束了表弟今年的生日……

New Year starts with the New Moon on the first day of the new year and ends on the full moon 15 days later. The 15th day of the new year is called the Lantern Festival, which is celebrated at night with lantern displays and children carrying lanterns in a parade.

The Chinese calendar is based on a combination of lunar and solar movements. The lunar cycle is about 29.5 days. In order to "catch up" with the solar calendar the Chinese an extra month once every few years. This is the same as adding an extra day on leap year. This is why, according to the solar calendar, the Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year.

New Years Eve and New Years Day are celebrated as a family affair, a time of reunion and thanksgiving. The celebration was traditionally highlighted with a religious ceremony given in honor of Heaven and Earth, the gods of the household and the family ancestors.

The sacrifice to the ancestors, the most vital of all the rituals, united the living members with those who had passed away. Departed relatives are remembered with great respect because they were responsible for laying the foundations for the fortune and glory of the family.

The presence of the ancestors is acknowledged on New Years Eve with a dinner arranged for them at the family banquet table. The spirits of the ancestors, together with the living, celebrate the onset of the New Year as one great community. The communal feast called "surrounding the stove". It symbolizes family unity and honors the past and present generations

say how much they love their children, my father just keep quiet. He barely says

sweet words to me. But he will never miss every important moment for me, like

我的小表弟今年六岁半了，他天真活泼，有时又显得傻乎乎的，我眼中的小表弟作文。每次他来我们家，我总喜欢逗他玩，他也像个跟屁虫似的天天围着我转悠级。记得有一次，姑姑和姑夫带他到我们家，我们俩玩魔方，正玩得起劲。

忽然，从厨房里飘来阵阵红烧肉的香味。他马上冲我抽了抽那大脑袋下的小鼻子，鼻梁还一耸一耸的，故意在那翻着眼皮，似乎是在品尝着似的。“哎呀！真是香死我了！”说着就扭动着他那胖墩墩的小身子在屋子里乱转。看着他那副滑稽样，我忍不住笑了。他跑到厨房，见我爸爸正在把烧好的猪尾巴往盘子里盛，就跺着脚问：“大舅，这是什么呀？快香死我了！”

爸爸见他那副馋样，就故意逗他说：“这是大人吃的，小孩子不能吃呀！”表弟拉拉我的衣服问：“表哥，你能吃吗？”我说：“那当然啦，你是小孩嘛！”他撅着小嘴走回了屋。吃饭时，他趁大人们在聊天时，抓了一块烫手的猪尾巴肉就啃，边啃边吹气，吃了两块他还没吃够。姑姑怕他吃坏了肚子，就不再让他吃了。他却在那装腔作势地冲着大家说：哎呀呀，不吃是不知道呀，猪尾巴肉真好吃呀！”

我差点把饭都喷出来了……饭后，我们大家都在看电视，只有小表弟在旁边不断地摇他的头，我便好奇地问小表弟：“小弟呀，你在练什么功呀？”他一本正经地回答道：“我正在试着看能不能摇动我的头呢。”大家见他那认真的傻样都笑了，他也笑了。这就是我眼中的小表弟。

亲爱的昊昊弟弟：

你好，我是你的表哥，我叫陈俊乐，好久没见，你还记得我吗？你一定还记得我们一起度过的那些快乐时光。记得快乐时光里那个瘦瘦的表哥。

你很开朗，不管你干什么，你都会快乐地去面对，我对你的这一点非常欣赏！我一定要好好学习一下你的这种精神。而且你也很听话，不管你的家里人叫你去干什么，你都会去做不会不想做，回到家里就立刻开始做作业。不管别人在做什么，你都会专心的写作业，我要向你学习。

你不要老是看电视，我知道电视很好看，但是为了你的眼睛还是少看电视吧。要是你再看电视的话，眼睛会近视的哦。到时候你看不见妈妈，看不见爸爸，谁也看不见，什么也做不了。只能用手到处乱摸，或者用一根长木头，在前面的路上碰几下，看看有没有东西，要是有东西要向别出走，会很麻烦。

我想我们以后要常常见面，这样，我们的快乐时光就可以变得更多了，我们就不会忘记对方了。

祝你

天天开心，学习进步

你的表哥：陈俊乐

王志斌是我的表弟，他比我小半岁，我们是同班同学。王志斌很胖，圆圆的脑袋、圆圆的脸、圆圆的眼睛、圆圆的鼻头，连四肢也是圆滚滚、肉乎乎的。他性格开朗、活泼，特别喜欢笑，对一切事物都充满好奇心。

我和王志斌既是亲戚也是同学和朋友，我们从小在一起玩，照理说我应该对他早就非常了解了，其实不然，我是经过了很长的时间，经历了很多事情之后才了解了真正的王志斌。

最初，王志斌给我的印象就是爱出风头。每一次老师请小朋友起来回答问题，他总是举手最积极的人之一，只见他把手举得高高的，仿佛屁股都要离开凳子似的，手里还叫着：“我、我、我……”，其实他的成绩在班上不算很好的，有时他会回答错问题，甚至引得全班大笑，但这从未打击到他的自信心。以前我对王志斌的这种行为很看不惯，我觉得他太爱出风头，明明不懂还起来乱回答显得很。我自己就很怕在众人面前回答问题，害怕答错被同学笑话，所以我上课从不举手，谁叫我样那种爱面子呢？

现在我的想法渐渐改变了，我意识到王志斌的这种自信心是很可贵的，他的行为也是对的，因为这样不仅可以活跃课堂气氛，提高学习的互动性，还可以让老师知道我们到底学得怎么样，也可以让我们把不懂的弄明白。如果大家都像我一样，课堂会变得多沉闷啊。学生全部一言不发，只有老师在上面讲，学生肯定有许多不明白的地方，而且老师也不知道学生到底懂不懂，教学效果就会很差。

除此之外，王志斌给我留下深刻印象的就是他的乐于助人。王志斌很喜欢帮助同学，只要有同学找他帮忙，他都来者不拒，尽力而为，所以现在我们班的同学有困难，通常都会去向他求助。班里搞什么活动，王志斌也很积极。有一次，詹老师来我们班选几个人去打扫实验室，王志斌一听，连忙举起手来，嘴里不停地喊着：“我！我！我来……”唯恐请不到他，而与此同时，我却在一旁做我的事，完全没把这事放在心上。现在想起来我都觉得好惭愧。

随着我对王志斌了解的逐步加深，他在我心里的印象也越来越深刻。

今年五岁，长得虎头虎脑的，他很调皮，也很可爱。

记得有一次，我正在看电视，电视播广告了，我刚要离开，却摔了一跤。一看表弟，他正在咯咯地笑呢！我明白了事情的真相，刚想反击，他见势不妙，便说：“表姐是猪八戒，王八蛋。”我听完后气得简直就想拔根头发去上吊！

虽然表弟调皮，但他有时也挺懂事的。

一天，表弟饿得不行了，便翻箱倒柜找吃的。看了看零食柜后，他发现自己的饼干只剩两块了，于是，他找到我，对我说：“表姐，我的饼干还有两块，我们一人一块，一起吃吧。”我听后，对他伸出一个大拇指：“真不错，表姐吃完了就奖励你一元钱！”他一蹦三尺高：“好耶！”

对了，告诉你们哦，表弟长得非常可爱：一双机灵得会说话的眼睛，一对招风耳，一个塌鼻梁，一张樱桃小嘴。谁见了都说可爱。

我真喜欢我的表弟呀！

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲，温斯顿·丘吉尔，在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画，当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年，任海军大臣的他，积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中，这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败，伤亡惨重，丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说：“我想他会痛苦而死，”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿，丘吉尔后来回忆道，“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我！”

一天他在花园散步时，偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟，然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法！

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来，克莱门廷非常开心，她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而，迈出下一步似乎有些困难，因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起，后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调，然后以万分的小心，在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时，传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀！’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢？给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅，她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨，在调色板上龙飞凤舞，接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时，约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居，也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生，拉威利说：“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政，我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中，丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后，在1921年，母亲刚去世两个月，他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德，这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下，温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰，用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说：“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流，背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉，达克迪莉（玛丽戈尔德的昵称）使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年，也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间，称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上，他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊，是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人，但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中，大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说：“画家其乐融融，因为他们不会孤独。光与色，和平与希望，会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

In school,I work very hard and I rank in the top of my class.Therefore,my classmates would like to ask me some questions about study when they do not ask for teachers.I like helping others.Firstly,when others need help,I want to give them a hand.They come to me,because they trust me.This makes me happy.Secondly,I can get help from others,too.Once you did some favors to them,they are more likely to help you.Finally,helping others is helping myself,too.When I solve problems,I get improvement at the same time.

我的表弟，他是一个名副其实的“马屁精”，你别不信，看了你就知道了。

一次，我.奶奶和表弟，三人去超市去买东西，表弟忽然眼前一亮，看见了一架坦克模型，就对奶奶说：“奶奶，可以买那个坦克模型吗？”奶奶生气地说：“我没这么多零钱，你要买叫你妈妈买。”可是表第还不灰心，忽然灵机一动，立刻想出了一个“好办法”，就对奶奶说：“奶奶您是全世界最美的人，您最慈祥最温柔了，我最爱奶奶了，奶奶你可不可以买这个坦克模型给我啊？”奶奶一听了，立刻转怒为喜，心里甜滋滋的对表弟说：“好吧!就这一次，下次不准了，喂你和表弟一起去买那个什么坦克模型，小心，别迷路了。”

哎！那次和他一起去买，害得我在帮他选来选去,跑来跑去，跑到腿都酸了，可是他还笑得那么开心，真是幸灾乐祸啊，虽然我知道他是为买到坦克模型而高兴，可心里还是很不高兴，哎！谁叫他是我的“马屁精”表弟呢？
