Dear Tommy,
I’m writing to you on your third birthday. I want to tell you something about your grandma’s time. I was born sixty-eight years ago in a small village.
Transportation used to be a big problem. When we traveled from village to village, we used to walk or ride horses.
Shopping was not an easy job, either. There were no supermarkets in the neighborhood. We used to grow most of our own food: rice and vegetables. We kept things cool in a special underground room.
The biggest difference is that you have electricity (电). We didn’t have electricity until very late
in our small village. We didn’t have any televisions of course. We used to perform our local (地方的) music and enjoy it very much.
Life used to be very hard, but I was not upset. I would like you to know about the old days and be happy about what you have when you grow up. Remember, feeling good about life is the key to happiness.
Love,
Your grandma

On the first day of my sixth grade, I saw one little girl called Amy on the school bus. “Don’t
talk to her,” said Lauren, who sat beside me, “or they will make fun of you.”
Amy had many physical differences—lots of reasons for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes weren’t straight. Her glasses were too big. And she had really ugly teeth.
Every day as we drove to and from school, kids would insult Amy, “God, what a strange face! Stop looking at me!”
I had to be in silence. After all, I didn’t want them to treat me in the same way.
But while I was insulting her, my heart ached for the girl. I could see that she was so ashamed (感到羞耻的) and alone. Then I wanted to stand up for her. I just didn’t know how to stop my schoolmates until the night of our class skating party.
Our whole class was there. Amy was there, too. Amy didn’t know how to skate, but I could see how much she wanted to have fun like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand. She just smiled, and was very excited.
The next morning there was much news about Amy and me skating together. But nobody
laughed at her or me. And they didn’t for the rest of the year. I never heard from Amy again after the school year. But I’ve always hoped that I changed her life for the better.

A. He taught Amy to skate.

I’m Tessa, 18 years old now. I remember my time at primary school well. I feel some of it is really good, but some of it can bring back bad memories.
My first day
I’ll never forget my first day at primary school. I remember I felt really nervous on that day. We were in assembly (集合), and the head teacher was introducing himself. A girl next to me started asking about my shoes. So, I told her about my shoes. Suddenly the head teacher looked at me with an angry face. “Be quiet when I am speaking! Go and stand in the corner,” he said. I remember I felt so terrible at that time.
My first teacher
I remember her name was Mrs Simpson. She was really pretty and had a lovely smile. She had a soft voice and always wore the same sweater. She seemed so nice after that horrible (可怕的) head teacher.
Sports day
The sports day was the best day of school! I used to practice for the five-kilometer race and one year I actually won!
My nickname (绰号)
Everyone in the class had a nickname. Some of the nicknames were funny and some weren’t very nice. There was a thin girl who everyone called “spider legs”. I remember they used to call me “mushroom (蘑菇) head” because my hair stuck out (突出) on either side. It made a lasting impression on me. Not a good one.

TORONTO — A new report from the Vanier Institute for the family says that there are more problem children today than 50 years ago.
York University professor Anne Ambert, the writer of the report, says that bad influences on children come from parents, schools, neighbors, the media (媒体), etc.
Children today have bad behavior. They argue more with others. They stop others when others are talking. They are less polite to others. They choose to fight rather than discuss when they disagree with each other. When they have disagreements with their parents, they want to run away from home. They tell more lies (谎话). When they need money, they would rather steal (偷) than work hard.
There is not enough family education about how kids behave well. Parents should care more about their kids. There are more and more single-parent families and more violence (暴力) on TV and in other kinds of media.
The report is a study about why there are more children with bad behavior. Everyone should pay more attention to this problem.

Ⅳ. 任务型阅读(10分)
Li Xiaogu, 13, from Guangxi, has never been interested in the Spring Festival Gala programs except Liu Qian’s magic show. When Liu Qian’s performance began, Li stopped everything to enjoy it.
“Liu Qian made the coins pass through the glass just by patting the glass table. Moreover (而且), he put his hand through the glass to get the coin,” said Li. “It’s really amazing.”
Some people unveiled (揭秘) Liu Qian’s magic in an online video. Some posted (公布) the secrets behind the magic show only 10 minutes after Liu Qian performed it on TV.
“It’s wrong! Showing how it’s done will ruin (破坏) the beauty of magic,” said Li.
Liu Heng, 14, from Jiangsu, agrees with Li. “Everyone knows magic is not real. Unveiling it will ruin the feeling of ‘unreal’ and make it meaningless,” said Liu Heng. “So we’d better keep the magic of magic shows.”
Unlike these two, Wang Zi, a 14-year-old Beijinger, doesn’t think unveiling the secrets is all that bad. Wang is a magic lover and can do some simple magic shows. He watched four videos that showed the secrets behind Liu’s magic show. “Watching those can help us understand magic better,” said Wang.
Facing the unveiling, Liu Qian said in a recent interview, “Magic is an art to meet people’s curiosity (好奇心). So the best attitude (态度) towards magic is enjoying it rather than finding out how it’s done.”

In the old school, I used to spend much time playing with my friends, but now I have to spend most of my time on my schoolwork. I used to have no interest in my lessons, so I usually got bad grades. However, now I become more interested in my studies, and my grades are improving a lot.
