I was on a train in Switzerland．The train came to a stop and the voice over the loudspeaker announced (广播) message in German, Italian, and French．Unluckily, I failed to understand anything about it．I’d made the mistake of not learning any of those languages before my vacation．So, I just sat there doing nothing but waiting to know what was going on.
However, everyone started getting off the train．Then an old woman saw that I was confused．She could speak some English and told me that an accident had happened on the railways．She asked me where I was trying to get．Then she went and talked to some workers and returned to tell me that we had to change trains three or four times to get there.
I was glad when I heard she was going the same way as me．To be honest, it would be never possible for me to figure it out (解决) without her help．We went together from one train station to the next, getting to know each other along the way．She told me a lot of things about Switzerland proudly．A wild smile was always on her face.
It was a three-hour journey in total, and when we made it to the final destination ( 目的地), we got off and said our goodbye．I had made it just in time to catch my train to Rome．She told me she had a train to catch as well．I asked her how much farther she had to go and it turned out that her home was two hours back the other way.
She was really the sweetest woman．She had jumped from train to train and traveled the whole way just to make sure that I made it．I was shocked．A woman spent her whole day sitting on trains and taking her hours away from her home just to help out a confused tourist visiting her country.
This experience is unforgettable．Though I have visited many countries, I’ll always say the most beautiful country is Switzerland.

Mom was cooking in the kitchen．She could hear the girls arguing (争吵) in the living room.
It was the third time this week that the sisters had been arguing over nothing．A few minutes later, Maria went into her bedroom angrily and closed the door heavily.
“Come to the kitchen, young lady,” Mom firmly said to Maria in her best mother tone of voice.
Maria walked into the kitchen and shouted “I can’t stand living with Felicia another minute．I don’t ever want to talk to her again!”
Mom called out, “Felicia, come to the kitchen right now.”
While Felicia was on her way, Mom put two chairs opposite to each other but very close together．“Maria, you sit here and Felicia, you sit there.” The girls sat face to face, with their knees almost touching．“Now you look at each other in the eye for five minutes,” Mom ordered.
At first the girls moved their bodies from side to side．Mom said, “You must stay looking at each other for five minutes．Each minute you don’t make eye contact means another minute sitting in the chairs.” They both wanted out, so they had to sit there and look at each other.
Felicia looked at Maria’s angry face while Maria looked at Felicia’s．They each thought the other one looked ridiculous (可笑的)．In fact, they were being ridiculous to fight and be mad at each other over nothing.
Soon Maria couldn’t stand it any longer and began giggling (咯咯地笑) and so did Felicia．They giggled and laughed.
Mom wisely didn’t say anything except, “Okay girls, you can go now.”

Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do．Then Murphy, one of the staff(员工)members, came over．She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride．Gloria said, “Really?” Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream, and she completely enjoyed the ride.
Sure enough, as we walked out the exit, there was Gloria’s new friend with “her” ice-cream.
Now you and I both know what happened, because we know that an ice-cream won’t last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida．Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride．She went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out of the exit．Gloria said, “Thank you,” but I’m sure she thought it was the same ice-cream.
