George Bizos，Mr Mandela’s lawyer，said he believed he still wanted to live，despite his poor health.The former leader of South Africa was sent to hospital on Wednesday night because of suffering from a recurring lung infection (反复肺部感染)．Mr Mandela has been in hospital four times in just over two years and three times have been in the past four months.

Mr Bizos defended (辩护) Mr Mandela during his 1960s trial (审判) fighting white minority rule，and now remains a famous human rights lawyer.And he recently represented families of striking miners killed when the police opened fire on them outside a mine in Marikana last August.He said that Mr Mandela was stronger than his appearance might suggest.

“Of course，I have been saying to people，‘You should remember Mandela is no longer that young.’ Even if he goes for check­ups every now and then，I don’t think people should be worried about him，” Zuma，South Africa’s President told the BBC.“Let us slow down the worries.He is responding very well and he is in good hands of very good doctors.All of the above will bring comfort to all of us.I would like to really say the country must not panic.”

On Thursday Barack Obama，the US President，said he was deeply concerned about the state of  Mr Mandela’s health.Mr Obama said he believed  Mr Mandela was as strong as he had been in character and in leadership over so many years.President Obama said it was inevitable that people should be concerned about news about Mr Mandela.After Mr Mandela was released from prison，he became the first black President of South Africa.“We are deeply concerned about Nelson Mandela’s health—he is a hero，I think，to all of us，” he said on Thursday as he met four leaders from sub­Saharan Africa.

How do young children learn to have good values？How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience？At a time when more and more parents worry about the violent images (暴力形象) their children see on TV，some are turning to fairy tales (童话)．

It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil (邪恶) very clearly.When children hear the stories，they learn to care about others’ feelings.In each tale，they can see that there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be.We can choose to do good actions，rather than bad ones，in our lives.

What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales？In The Princess and the Pea (《豌豆公主》)，a poorly dressed girl，who insists she is a princess，is given a difficult test by the Queen.When she passes the test，we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself.In The Little Mermaid (《小美人鱼》)，the mermaid，who lives under the sea，wishes to be with the humans on land.Through her experiences，we learn about the importance of living with and accepting other cultures.In Pinocchio，a wooden puppet (木偶) turns into a boy when he finally learns how to tell the truth.

Teaching values is the reason most often given for encouraging children to read stories.These fairy tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that are accepted around the world for many centuries.This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.
