Everybody has an enchanted lamp
—After reading<Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp>
This holiday, I read a book named “Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp”. It is a famous fairy tale written by an English auther named Judith Dean. It tells us a story about how a “good-for-nothing” becomes to a rich
man by an enchanted lamp.
The story is like this:
When Aladdin was a boy, he just want to play. He talked and laughed and played with his friends all day at
the maket. By accident, he got the enchanted lamp from a magician named Abanazar. And used it to get food and money. Soon, Aladdin and his mother were rich.
Five years later, he married the Sultan’s daughter, Princess Badr-al-Budur. And built a very beautiful palace
for her. They lived very happily.
But soon, Abanazar came back and deceived the lamp from the princess. And snatched the palace and the
princess. So Aladdin went to Morocco by the jinnee of the ring, rescued the princess and took the lamp away.
Afterwards, Aladdin and his princess lived happily.
I think, Aladdin is really a bad boy. He is so lazy and did not do any work. His mother always says to him:
“You are a lazy boy—a good-for-nothing!”
Yes, Aladdin is really good-for-nothing. But he can do one thing,that is calling the jinnee. Ture,is a good thing. But in our real life, we don’t have a jinnee and we can’t do the things like Aladdin.
Everybody has many wishes, but we can’t just want to find short cuts. We should believe ourselves. We
should work hard by ourselves. If we just want to live off the labour of others, we will be good-for-nothing. We
should realize our wishes by ourselves, not by others.
I think, everybody has a jinnee, it just lives in our hearts but we can’t see it. In fact, we are the jinnee in our
life. We can let the dreams come ture. As long as we can try hard and work hard, we can discover success is not far from us. So believe ourselves, we’re the jinnee of ourselves.
