All around him were grassy hills without trees. He had nowhere to hide. How could he escape?Hannay walked along the country road for a long time. Then he saw a road worker, who was working alone, fixing the road. Hannay could see the road worker was not feeling well. Hannay came up to him and said "How are you?””My head hurts,”the road worker said, “I can’t do it. I want to go home to bed. My daughter got married yesterday, and I drank a lot of wine with my friends. That’s the problem!”Hannay agreed that he should be home in bed.”Yes, and I would be,” he replied, “but yesterday I received a message saying that the new surveyor was coming to look at my work. If he comes and finds me away, I’ll be in trouble.”Suddenly Hannay had a bright idea—he could act as the road worker and get away from his enemies.”You go off to bed,” Hannay said. “I’ll do your job until the new surveyor comes.”The road worker was pleased with his idea. He gave Hannay his hat and his old coat. Then he went home to sleep and perhaps to drink a bit more. Hannay put on the road workers hat and coat and began to fix the road. About an hour later he heard a voice.”Are you the road worker?” it asked.It was the new surveyor. He was a young man with a clean face. He sat in a small car.Hannay said ”yes”.

Hannay continued with his work.Then a village boy came by. “What has happened to the road worker?” he asked.”He stayed at home today,” Hannay replied. “He’s sick.”At about midday, a large car came down the hill and stopped near Hannay.

" Night after night, I had to say this as I worked in my family’s restaurant. My father was a fantastic cook. He wanted me, his only son, to cook with him, but I didn’t like cooking. Because of the restaurant, my father was always busy. He never had time to play foot ball with me.During my high school and college years, I worked with my family at night. But I always avoided the kitchen. I couldn’t wait to graduate so that I could move away from the family business. Several days before my graduation day, my father and I started looking at new cars. Finally, we found the right car. I was sure that my father would give it to me as my graduation gift.On my graduation day, my father gave me a book as a gift. It was his old cookbook. I was so angry that I gave it back to him and ran out of the house. Several days later I moved away and started my business. Although I often saw my father during holidays, we never talked about the graduation gift. Then one day, I got a call that my father was ill. I went to see him because I was very worried.That night, I looked through my father’s books and saw the cookbook that he had given me year before. I carefully opened the cookbook and went through it. Then I found something that made me cry. It was a check for$30,000 dated the day of my graduation. And the price of the car my father and I chose all those years ago was $30,000.27.

Recently there has been a report about a woman from Australia who can remember almost every detail of all the events in her daily life.Rebecca Sharrock, 25, is one of just 80 people worldwide who have been indentified(确定) as having Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM，超级自传体记忆症). It means she can remember every small event—which most people would forget within days—as if it had happened just minutes ago.“I remember my mum putting me in the driver's seat of a car and taking a picture of me when I was 12 days old，”she said. “That's my earliest memory. I remember every day since then. I can't tell all the dates exactly because I was too young to understand calendars, but I remember what I did that every day, what the weather was like and so on.”Rebecca can also re­experience taste. If she's eating something that she doesn't like, she thinks about Black Forest cake, her favorite food, and the memory will be so strong that she can nearly “taste”it.However, sometimes her memories prove to be painful. Because they're not just events that she remembers. “When I relive(再体验) memories, the feelings return, too，”Rebecca said.“For example, I remember falling over when I was three at my grandparents' house and hurting my left knee. Talking about it now, I feel painful in my left knee.”“At night, I have to sleep with the radio/recorder and a soft light on，”she added. “If it's too dark or quiet, my mind would be filled with all these memories and I can't sleep.”32.
