My son Joey was born with club feet.The doctors told us that he would be able to walk,but would never run very well.By the time he was eight,you wouldn’t know he had a problem when you saw him walk.
The children in our neighborhood ran around playing,and Joey would join them, run and play,too.We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children.So he didn’t know.
In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team.Every day he worked harder and ran more than any of the others.Although the entire team runs,only the top seven runners score for the school.We didn’t tell him he probably would never be on the team,so he didn’t know.
He continued to run four to five miles a day,every day - even the day he had a high fever.I was worried,so I went to see him after school.I found him running all alone.I asked him how he felt."Okay," he said.He had two more miles to go.Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running.We never told him he couldn’t run miles with a high fever.So he didn’t know.
Two weeks later,the names of the team runners were called.Joey was Number Six on the list.Joey was on the team! He was in seventh grade.We never told him he couldn’t do it!

In old times,man considered lightning to be one of the great mysteries(神秘事物)of nature.In fact a single flash of lightning 1.6 kilometers long has enough electricity to light one million lamps.
The American scientist,Benjamin Franklin,was the first to suggest that lightning is in fact electricity formed between the earth and clouds high above.It happened in 1752.In the same year,he also built the first lightning rod(避雷针)to protect buildings from being struck by lightnings.
Modern science has discovered that lightning is very strong and powerful.A lightning between a cloud and the earth may be as long as 13 kilometers,and travels at a speed of 30 million meters per second.Scientists have the opinion that there are about 2000 million flashes of lightning per year.In the United States alone,it kills almost one person per day.
The safest place to be in during an electrical(电的)storm is a closed car.Outside,one should go close to low ground for cover and not stop under a tree.Also one should stay out of water and away from metal fences.Inside a house people should keep away from open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things.

I had the meanest mother in the whole world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have porridge, eggs or toast. When others had Cokes and candy for lunch, I had to eat a sandwich. But at least I wasn’t alone when I was sad. My sister and two brothers had the same mean(刻薄的) mother as I did.
My mother preferred to know where we were all the time. She had to know who our friends were and where we were going. We had to clean clothes and take a bath every day. The other kids got to wear the same clothes for days. We could not lie in bed “sick” in order to miss school.
The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by nine each night and get up at eight the next morning. We couldn’t sleep till noon like our friends. So while they slept, my mother was brave to break the Child Labour Law. She made us work. We had to wash dishes, make beds, and learn to cook and all sorts of things at home. I believe she lay awake thinking up all things for us to do. 
My mother was a complete failure as a mother. Two of her children received higher education. None of us have ever been arrested(taken away by the police) or divorced. She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. I am trying to raise my three children this way. I am filled with pride when my children call me “mean”. Why? Because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.
小题1: How many children does the writer’s mother have?
