Once there was a boy who loved a girl very much.
The girl's father, however, did not like the boy, and he did not want their love to grow.
The boy wanted to write the girl a love letter, but he was afraid that the girl's father would read it first.
“How can I write her a love letter?”he said to himself with a sigh.
At long last he came up with a good idea.
He sat at his desk and wrote a letter to the girl.
The boy was right.
Mumbling something, the girl's father opened the letter.
It went:
The great love I said I had for you
is gone, and I find my dislike for you
increases every day. When I see you,
I do not like your looks at all and
the only thing I want to do is to
look the other way. I never wanted to
marry you. Our last conversation
was dull and in no way
made me anxious to see you again.
The girl's father read this much, smiling to himself.

The boy's letter continued:
You think only of yourself.
If we were married, I would find
life difficult, and I would have no
pleasure in living with you. I have a heart
to give, but it is not a heart
I want to give to you.
I sincerely want you to understand
I speak the truth. You will do me a favor
if you consider this the end. Do not try
to answer this. Good-bye! Believe me,
I do not care for you. Please do not think
I am still your loving friend.
The girl's father was pleased.
He was sure the boy was no longer in love with his daughter.
When he finished reading the letter, he gave it to her.
The girl read the letter and said, “He loves me so much! I wish I could go out with him again!”
Why was the girl so pleased? She and the boy had a secret way of writing to each other.
She read the firse line, and than the third line, and then the fifth line, and so on, to the end of the letter.

Gerald Wilkinson, a professor of biology at the University of Maryland,
decided to find out what was going on among the vampire bats.
He spent many hours looking closely inside the trees where vampire bats
were gathering.
He also set up acolony at the University of Maryland so that he could
keep a closer watch on particular individuals and which bats they fed
and were fed by.
Wilkinson noticed that sometimes one bat would do the feeding and at
other times it would be fed by the others, and it was this difference
that gave him a clue as to what was going on.

Picasso put all anger into the mural and finish it on June4.
The mural, called Guernica, was three and a half meters tall and over seven and a half meters long.
It was painted in black and white and shades of gray to create a sorrowful atmosphere.
In Guernica you can see images such as a crying woman with her dead baby in her arms, a dead soldier, a feeling woman holding a lamp, a bull, a horse, and the flames of a burning building.
When Guernica was exhibited at the Paris World’s Fair, in immediately caused a variety of reactions.
Some said it was an excellent piece of work.
Some thought it difficult to understand what the mural stood for.
Although different people have different interpretations, Guernica is now interpreted as symbolizing resistance to and anger at fascism.

Guernica was moved around Europe after the Paris World’s Fair.
Picasso hoped that Guernica would one day find a home in Spain.
But he made it a condition that “the painting shall be turned over to Spain.”
World War Ⅱ ended in 1945, but General Franco continued to rule Spain for the following thirty years.
Guernica could not find a home in Spain and so was kept in the Museum of New York.
After Franco’s death in 1975, when Picasso had already died, new calls were made for the mural’s return.
In 1981, Guernica was finally taken to Spain.
Now showcased at the Reina Sofia National Museum Art Center, Guernica is called one of the greatest masterpieces of the 20th century.
