With great difficulty，he got up，took out a bowl and went out to beg. By begging the whole day, he finally got a pot full of milk. He hung(悬挂)this pot on the ceiling，lay down on his bed and started daydreaming again. “This pot of milk is going to make me rich,” he thought. “I can make butter from the milk.Then I will be able to make ghee(印度酥油)and go to the market and sell the ghee , ” his dream continued. “With the money I get, I will buy a pair of goats. They will have kids after six months.Soon I would have a large number of goats.” “Then I will buy some more cows and own a farmhouse. I will start a dairy(奶制品)farm.Once I have much money I will open a sweet shop in the middle of the village.

And yes，its good to get along well with your teachers because its smart to learn how to get along well with different kinds of people youll meet in your life. In fact，if kids get along well with their teachers, they will not only learn more， but also feel more comfortable about asking questions and getting more help. This makes it easier for them to learn about new things and do their best on tests. If you have this kind of relationship(关系)with a teacher, you can turn to him or her with problems in school. It is true that teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes(个性冲突)，it can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation(情况)better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen. By helping with a problem like this，you learn something about how to get along with different people. However, if a certain teacher isnt your favorite，you can still have a successful relationship with him or her, especially if you finish your duties(责任)as a student.49.
