Then the white rabbit saw Alice.

“What are you doing here, Mary Ann?” he asked. “Go home right away and bring me a fan and a pair of white gloves.”

Alice was too afraid to tell him she was not Mary Ann, a servant. So she ran off.

“I’ll try and find his fan and gloves,” she thought when she ran.

She soon came to a little house. There was a name on the door, “W. Rabbit.”

She ran up the stairs into a little bedroom, and there she found a pair of gloves and a fan. She picked them up and was going to leave when she saw a bottle. It was near a looking glass. On the side of the bottle were the words “Drink me.”

“I’ll drink some,” Alice thought. “Perhaps it will make me grow again. I am tired of being so small.”

She quickly drank half the bottle. Before she could get out of the little house, she started to grow. Soon, she was so big, she could not move in the room.

The Maori people of New Zealand believe that the world began in darkness.

They say it was dark because Rangi, the sky father, and Papa, the earth mother, were lying together, keeping out of the light.

Rangi and Papa had many children who were all gods (神). Their children did not like the darkness, so one of them, Tane, the god of the forests, made his mother leave his father. After that, the sky stayed far above the Earth, and let the light in.

Later, Tane was living on the Earth. He wanted to have a wife. There was no woman around, so he made one from sand. He breathed (呼出) life into her, and she became the first human(人類).

As Tane breathed life into his wife, he knew that the breath of life would one day leave her. So it was that humans were not like gods — they could not live all the time.
