My enemies have told everyone that I never finish any work on time (准时).”The kind king said, “Today you can go to my treasury (金银财宝库) and get as much treasure as you can, till sunset (日落).”Harold ran home to tell his wife about it. She said, “Go and get the gold coins and diamonds now.”“I cannot go now. I’m hungry. Cook lunch for me first.”After lunch, Harold took a rest for an hour. Then he took a bag and left home. On the way, Harold felt hot, so he sat under a tree to rest. Two hours later, it became cool. Harold got ready to go, but he saw a man showing some magic tricks (魔术).

It is very interesting and I always get good marks in the exams. For me, numbers and figures (图形) are so easy. I am lucky to have a clear-thinking brain.The wonderful thing about maths is that there is nothing else to remember besides some formulae (公式). Other subjects like history and geography need a lot of memory work. For me, they are much harder. Maths is simple to me, but some of my friends hate it. They get stuck with (被……困住) simple problems and often give up. So I help them out when I can. My friends also help me with my history and geography.Now, I come to realize that people are different in their abilities (能力). Some of us are lucky to be good at some things. Others may do well in other ones.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
