"Tomorrow we’ll see the Golden Gate Bridge, " said Peter. "I’ve never seen a golden bridge before. " Peter’s father smiled, but said nothing. Peter would soon see the bridge. The next morning, his father took Peter to the bridge. How big it looked! And the bridge was red! "It isn’ t named for its colour, " said his father. "It’s named for the Golden Gate. " "What’s the Golden Gate" asked Peter. "A gate is either on opening, or a thing that closes an opening, " said his father. "The Golden Gate is an opening in the land. Water from the sea comes through this opening, into San Francisco Bay(旧金山湾). " "Oh, " said Peter. "And the bridge is over the opening. But why is the opening called the Golden Gate" "Years ago men came here to look for gold. Many came by ship. For them it was a gate to gold. " "Well, I still think the bridge should look golden. " When Peter got home, he sent a letter to a newspaper. In the letter he said, "Red is not the right colour for the Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge should look golden, the way most people think it does. " Peter sent all the money he had saved with his letter. "This money is to help paint the bridge, " he wrote. Many people read Peter’ s letter. Right away, things began to happen! Some people sent money. A big company gave real gold. But not all the people wanted to change the colour of the bridge. Will the Golden Gate Bridge ever be goldenWe live on the Earth. The Earth is very big. The Earth is a sphere, the same shape as a ball. The Earth spins every day. The Earth has land, where people and some animals live. It has oceans, where fish and whales live. A globe is a model of the Earth. It looks like the Earth. A globe is also a sphere. The Earth and a globe are the same shape. We use a globe to learn about the Earth. A globe has pictures of land and water on it, so we can understand where those things are on the Earth. The Earth spins around and travels around the Sun. We can make the globe spin, too. It is fun to learn about the Earth with a globe."Tomorrow we’ll see the Golden Gate Bridge, " said Peter.

Each day the boy and his llama walked many miles, looking for a home. Each night they curled up together and slept. But one starry evening, the old llama died. The boy buried his friend next to an icy stream. Then he sat under a tree and cried. What would he do He had no family and no home. The boy cried for a very long time. But there was no one to comfort him. There were only the stars in the sky. Suddenly, the sky filled with bright light. The boy held his breath. He was afraid to move. One bright star fell to the ground. Slowly, the star took the shape of the old llama. She bent her head and drank from the stream. She looked at the boy and smiled. As she jumped back into the sky, bits of llama wool fell. As the Sun began to rise, the boy picked up the soft, warm wool. It glowed in his hands like starlight. He carried the wool to the city and sold it. With the money, he bought a house. He bought two young llamas. He never forgot the star llama. And he was never lonely again.
