a boy, meant play , play and more play instead of sitting in the classroom
and learning something. However I hanged the way I used to behave at
school with the help of my teachers. I tried my best to do well in my
schoolwork and follow the school rules.
Growing and learning were great fun. Every year we had different
kinds of school trips. Not only could we learn many things f"rom them,
but also we were given many projects as homework. It helped us know
more. At the same time,we made many good friends. In Grade 8,I won
prizes in drawing and English speech competitions. When I was in Grade
9,I realized that l should give all my attention to studying to get into senior
middle school.
Whenever I think of my school life,I feel very happy and I think in
everybody"s school life there are many ups and downs that influence his
life. School is a place where all of us learn to care and share."School"
is not just a place,but a large building made up of rules, knowledge and
love.I think in everybody"s success, school plays a key(关键)role.I can
describe my school in "Three Ss". They are: Small, Sweet and Simple.
My school was the best and will always be the best.

called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I"m coming home, but I"ve a favor to ask.
I have a friend. I"d like to bring home with me."
"Sure," they replied, "we"d love to meet him." "He was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. He lost a
arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to live with us." "I"m sorry to hear that,
son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live."
"No. Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us."
"Son," said the father, "you don"t know what you"re asking. Someone with such a handicap would
be a temble burden (负担) on us. We have our own lives to live, and it"s very hard for us. I think you
should just come home and forget about this guy. He"ll find a way to live himself."
At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days
later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from

bought a used airplane. Then he asked for permission (允许) to fly it across the ocean. People from the
government looked at his shabby, old plane. They said no because the plane didn"t look safe enough to
make the trip smooth.
Sometime later Corrigan asked for permission to fly from New York to California without stopping.
This time the answer was yes. Comgan climbed into his plane early one morning in July of 1938. His gas
tank (油箱) was full. He had a box of cookies. He waved good-bye and took off.
Comgan didn"t go west to California, though. Instead, he headed northeast. Twenty-six hours later, he
landed in Dublin, Ireland. He had flown the Atlantic Ocean after all.
