My granddaughter, 10, was very happy the day before yesterday because her mother and the mother
of one of her classmates took them to a park and a Pizza Hut (比萨饼屋) to celebrate Children"s Day. For
a whole day, the two girls played heartily - no homework, no extra-curricular (课外) skills training. The
happy life lasted only for one day. Yesterday, everything returned to normal: doing homework till late at
night and going over lessons learned at last weekend"s English and "Olympic mathematics" (数学奥赛)
courses.
Every time I went to my daughter"s house in the evening, I saw my granddaughter sitting by the small
desk in her room doing math exercises or writing a compositions given by her teacher. On the white wall
behind the desk are some words she wrote. One sentence reads: "Why is the exercise endless?"
Poor girl!
Although teachers have stopped giving after-school homework to primary school children, parents have
been forcing their kids to take part in different kinds of extra-curricular training courses-learning English,
painting, music instrument (乐器), weiqi, "Olympic mathematics" and so on, every Saturday and Sunday.
Are these extra-curricular courses really necessary in children"s education? The answer is certainly "No".
Take the so-called "Olympic mathematics" for example. These courses are very difficult for the children to
understand. Often, they are difficult even for adults (成年人). |

I live in a very over populated beach area in the Los Angeles, and I love the beautiful sights. But because
of many people, lots of things are easy to be out of order, and sometimes it"s also easy to become angry.
Today was a day I wish I did not get out of bed. I mean that if I did not have to wake up and deal with all
the things that I have to deal with every day, it would have been wonderful.
I had a cup of coffee this morning and that was my meal for breakfast, not healthy I know. Anyway,
my stomach was sounding like a truck. So, I jumped in my car and decided to buy some food.
I was in line at Taco Bell and the line was like a long snake! Finally I got to place my order, but a young
girl in nice clothes pulled in (汽车停靠) and was stuck (被困住) in such a way that unless I moved for her,
she wouldn"t be able to get out. So I backed up (倒车) and waved her into my place in the front of the line.
I was surprised that this young girl did not say thanks. I was a little unhappy about it because I thought
that I had done something nice for a change. After the girl received her food and drove away, I pulled into
the ordering spot, not mad but hungry, and the employee said, "Hi, that girl just paid for your food."
That food was the most satisfying nourishment (营养品) my body had ever taken! If just by chance you
are that person who bought my food, I should say "Thank you!" |

-----Robin, aged 16, Birmingham | | 阅读理解。 | How hard we have all prayed (祈祷) to grow up quickly, and looked forward to the happy days of being
a grown-up and enjoying the many interests that a youth should have.
At last, you have grown up. At least you are no longer a child. They call you "young lady". You then enjoy
the pleasure of being a young lady. You are proud of being a grown-up teenager. People welcome you-this
young lady-heartily. You are glad that your prayer has been answered.
But there is always something that troubles you a lot. You say, "Papa and Mama, give me some money
please. My pocket money is all gone already."
"No", they say, "Your age is a dangerous age. If you have too much money to spend, it won"t do you
any good." Then you have to stay at home because you dare not go out with an empty pocket.
Another time you tell your grandma, "Grandma, see, I am a grown-up now."
"Good, now, you can sit here and knit (编织) this for me while I go and have a rest." To show that you
are no more a child, you have to sit there the whole afternoon doing the work, which only a grown-up can
do. After an hour, you find it hard to do, and give the knitting basket back to your grandma. Your grandma
criticizes your work. You hear what she says, "Such a big girl can"t do such easy work." You wish then you
were a child again.
But the fact is, you are growing up, and you can"t help it. That"s the way it goes! | | 1. The passage is told about _________ problems. | A. a grown-up boy"s

when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let"s look at the words about animals and plants. Most
expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, "a homeless dog","a mad dog","a running dog" and "a dog
catching a mouse", have negative* meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and
good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive* actions. For example,"you are
a lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And "every dog has its day" means each person has good luck
sometimes. To describe a person"s serious illness, they say"sick as a dog". The word "dog-tired" means very
tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture,"cat" is often used to describe a woman
who is cruel*.
The rose is regarded as a symbol* of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose
means love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many
other countries.
The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can
learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used. | | 1. "Every dog has its day." means"_______". | A. Everybody in the world is lucky.
