　　Some fifty years ago , I was studying in a middle school in New York . One day , Mrs. O'Neil gave a maths test to our class . When the papers were marked , she found that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes in the test .

　　There is nothing new about cheating in exams . Perhaps that was why Mrs. O'Neil didn't even say one word about it . She only asked the twelve boys to stay after class . I was one of the twelve .

　　Mrs. O'Neil asked no questions , and she didn't scold us , either . Instead , she wrote the following words on the blackboard : On your way home you find some money and you're completely sure that you will never be found out . Later someone comes to ask you if you have found some money he lost . What will you do ?

　　She then ordered us to write down the question , and asked us to take our whole lives to try to find out our own answer to it .

　　I don't know about the other eleven children . Speaking for myself I can say : it was the most important single thing of my life. From then on , I have been asking this question to myself when I have to make a decision .

　These days, there's a popular cartoon named happy sheep and gray wolf. It's an excellent Chinese cartoon, which tells the stories of happy sheep and gray wolf. The poor gray wolf is always trying hard to catch the sheep, but the sheep could always run away from the danger. The sheep are so clever and lovely that the cartoon gets all the children's love. At the same time, the cartoon is full of humor. The children could learn more knowledge and enjoyment from it.

　The cartoon is shown repeatedly on many TV channels.The Zhejiang Channel broadcasts the cartoon on weekends and the vacations; the Sichuan Channel broadcasts the cartoon for an hour in the evening; the Shandong Channel broadcasts it in the morning, while CCTV-3 broadcasts it at noon every day.

　On one hand, the cartoon gets the children's love because the happy sheep is really clever. He always has a way to work out any problem and save his friends. What's more , there're many things about happy sheep and gray wolf, such as the books, the toys, the pencil-box, the clothings, and so on. Children are happy to buy them. On the other hand, many adults ( 大人) also like the cartoon, for the gray wolf is regarded as the perfect husband with skills and effort. He invents many things just to catch a sheep for his wife. Though he is often hit by his wife, he always makes her happy without complaining (抱怨).

　We can learn more from the cartoon, including the skills, the stories, the details, the humor, and so on. We could see the humor of Chinese type during the cartoon. But I don't like its being shown so often. It may make the children spend more time on watching TV and it is bad for their health
