Jane was always getting shouted at for not being ready for class. It happened so often that she could see her teacher's mouth open to shout at her as soon as she walked through the door. Her teacher became really angry instead of usual kindness. She didn't really blame (贵怪) her teacher that much, though. She knew she hated repeating (重复) herself, so why wouldn't her teacher?
Just once, she wanted to give her teacher a good impression (印象). She got her things out the night before, and then organized them carefully. She made sure her test paper was signed (签字) by her parents. She sharpened three pencils. She made sure she finished all the homework. Things looked good.
After a late night preparing, she fell asleep, but woke up late. Between breakfast, putting shoes on, and taking out the trash, she didn't take her backpack. In the rush for the bus in the morning, she forgot her backpack!
Jane felt sick. She was afraid to get to school. How could she be so irresponsible (不负责任)?When she was about to go into class, she heard her name being called over the school radio. She had to go to the office. Had her teacher already told the headmaster? Had they said that she had left her backpack at home? With heavy feet, she went into the office, only to find her mother waiting for her.
"You forgot your backpack. I know you tried hard to get ready, so I wanted to make sure you had your things." Her mother smiled.
Jane laughed and rushed off to class after hugging her mother. That day, the teacher didn't shout at her. Instead, when he got ready to shout, he closed his mouth and smiled. He was happy to see she was ready, and Jane was happy to do the right thing.
a. Jane woke up late the next morning.
b. Jane's teacher got angry with her.
c. Jane walked into class happily.
d. Jane's mom arrived at school.
Dear Sir, I am writing to complain (抱怨) about the terrible environment in our neighborhood. However, I could see, from the front of my house, that it was Greenford Park in the past. This place used to be beautiful and clean. But it is now being ruined (破坏). Are we, as local people, expected to keep our feelings inside? For the last month, I have noted the following actions that bring problems: ※The dropping of litter (废弃物),fast-food bags, etc.; ※The pouring of dirty water everywhere we walk; ※The ruined trees and wild plants when cars cross the area or park on it; ※The careless actions of dog owners who allow their pets to make the area dirty without clearing up the mess, which is bad for our health. ※Another problem is that there is noise from "music-making" devices (设备) in fine weather. As a result, we can't see any rabbits or other animals anymore. As people today pay more attention to "green", I expect that our government might take the chance to create an area that would better protect (保护) the wildlife. Yours faithfully, Mr. Wild |
Dear Li Ming, How are you these days? Are you busy preparing for the tests? So what do you do to relax yourself? The winter vacation is coming and I know you're going to Beijing for a trip with your family. What are you going to do there? Look forward to your reply. Yours, Maria |
