The first teacher-parent meeting would be held in the school. To the little boy's disappointment(失望), his mother said she would go. He felt sorry for her face. She was very beautiful, but there was a big scar (疤痕) on her right face. The boy never talked about it with his mother.
At the meeting, the people noticed the mother’s kindness and beauty though she had the scar. But the little boy hid himself. After the meeting, the teacher asked his mother carefully. "How did you get the scat on your face?" The mother answered. "When my son was a baby, he was once in a room that caught fire. Everyone was too afraid to go in because the fire was out of control. At that time, I rushed in As I was running towards his bed. I saw a piece of wood coming towards his bed. I threw myself over him to protect him. I was knocked down. Luckily, a fireman came in and saved both of us. But I got the scar." She touched her face." This scar will be here for ever, but I have never felt sorry for what I did."
    At that moment, the little boy came out with his eyes wet. He held his mother’s hand for the rest of the day.

     Most of you know this mathematical game, of course. You and your friend draw crosses and circles on a sheet of paper. You do it one after another. The first pupil who gets three marks in a row wins. But do you know that you can play this game another way and it will become more interesting? You must try to make your friend win. If you get your three marks in a row, you don't win — you lose!

     It is more difficult to play this game the other way. The second pupil can always win (if he plays the right way), but he may not win if the first pupil begins with his mark in the center. Then if the first pupil always takes a place on the other side of his friend's mark, nobody will win.
     If your friend does not know the secret which we have explained, you must play each time so as to leave him the greatest number of ways to win. You may try a few games and you will see how interesting it is to play the game this way.
