once upon a time, nine ducklings hatched. eight were pretty, and fluffy and yellow. but the ninth duckling did not look like the others.
"you are not like the rest," said his mother.
"ugly duckling!ugly duckling!" said the eight other ducklings.
"ugly duckling!ugly duckling!go away!"
the ugly duckling stayed away from his eight brothers and sisters.
once the mother duck took her ducklings to visit another duck family
on the other side of the lake. they teased the ugly duckling.
"you can't be a duck!you can't be a duck!"
"i am a duck!i am a duck!i am!" cried the ugly duckling.
and then he ran away. the ugly duckling hid in some grass.
soon it got dark. the ugly duckling was scared and lonely. he went to sleep. the next morning, the ugly duckling went to look for food.
"what kind of bird are you " asked some wild ducks.
"i am a duck," said the ugly duckling.
"you can't be a duck!"you can't be a duck!" they teased.
the ugly duckling ran away from the wild ducks. he ran and ran until
he came to another lake.
"i'll stay here," he said. the ugly duckling stayed all winter.
it was cold, very cold, and windy, too. one day, the ugly duckling saw
some swans flying south.
"come with us!" they called.
"i'm coming," cried the ugly duckling. "wait for me!wait for me!"
the ugly duckling flapped his wings. he tried to take off. but he
couldn't fly very well, and the swans couldn't wait. the ugly duckling stayed by the lake. he grew…and grew….and grew! in the spring, the ugly duckling flapped his wings. they were big and strong.
"i can fly," he said. "i can fly!"he flew to a riverbank.
"come and stay with us," said the swans.
"who, me " asked the ugly duckling.
"you don't want me. i'm just an ugly duckling."
"a duckling " they said.
"no, you are a swan. a beautiful swan, just like us!"

Language as a System of Symbols
Of all systems of symbols(符號(hào)), language is the most highly developed. It has been pointed out that human beings, by agreement, can make anything stand for anything. Human beings have agreed, in the course of centuries of mutual(相互的)dependency, to let the various noises that they can produce with their lungs, throats, tongues, teeth, and lips systematically stand for certain happenings in their nervous systems. We call that system of agreements language.
There is no necessary connection between the symbol and that which it stands for. Just as social positions can be symbolized by feathers worn on the head, by gold on the watch chain, or by a thousand other things according to the culture we live in, so the fact of being hungry can be symbolized by a thousand different noises according to the culture we live in.
However obvious these facts may appear at first glance, they are actually not so obvious as they seem except when we take special pains to think about the subject. Symbols and the things they stand for are independent of each other, yet we all have a way of feeling as if, and sometimes acting as if, there were necessary connections. For example, there are people who feel that foreign languages are unreasonable by nature; foreigners have such funny names for things, and why can't they call things by their right names? This feeling exhibits itself most stronglyin those English and American tourists who seem to believe that they can make the natives of any country understand English if they shout loud enough. Like the little boy who is reported to have said: “Pigs are called pigs because they are such dirty animals,” they feel that the symbol is inherently(內(nèi)在地) connected in some way with the things symbolized.
