“here, brother sancho panza,” said the don quixote when he saw it, “we may plunge our hands up to the elbows in what they call adventures; but observe, even shouldst thou see me in the greatest danger in the world, thou must not put a hand to thy sword in my defense, unless indeed thou perceives that those who assail me are rabble or bade folk; for in that case thou mayest very properly aid me; but if they be knights it is on no account permitted or allowed thee by the laws of knighthood to me until thou hast been dubbed a knight.”

“no soft words with me, for i know you, lying rabble,” said don quixote, and without waiting for a reply he spurred rocinante and with leveled lance charged the first friar with such fury and determination, that if the friar has not flung himself off the mule, he would have brought him to the ground against his will, and sore wounded, if not killed outright. the second brother, seeing how his comrade was treated, drove his heels into his castle of a mule and made off across the country faster than the wind.

then she told me that she had passed the road test, bribing the officer with five hundred yuan in addition to the three thousand paid as the application and test fees. she e-mailed: “sister, i must have a car. yesterday minmin, our little niece, came to town driving a brand-new volkswagen. at the sight of that gorgeous machine, i felt as if a dozen awls were stabbing my heart. everybody is doing better than me, and i don’t want to live anymore! ”

i realized she didn’t simply want to impress her ex. she too had caught the national auto mania. i told her that was ridiculous, nuts. i knew she had some savings. she got a big bonus at the end of each year and freelanced at night. how had she become so vain and so unreasonable? i urged her to be rational. that was impossible, she claimed, because “everybody” drove a car in our hometown. i said she was not everybody and mustn’t follow the trend. she wouldn’t listen and asked me to remit her money as a loan. she already had a tidy sum in the bank, about eighty thousand yuan, she confessed. from “the bane of the internet”

Read the excerpt from act ii, scene v of romeo and juliet. friar laurence: these violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey is loathsome in his own deliciousness and in the taste confounds the appetite: 15 therefore love moderately; long love doth so; too swift arrives as tardy as too slow. friar laurence is motivated to offer this warning because he knows that something bad will certainly happen to the lovers. feels that romeo is acting foolishly and should not get married. enjoys giving advice because he is wise and can others. wants to caution romeo about the consequences of his actions.
