in 5th and 6th grade.
We started school in Bedford when our families moved there. We shared interests and did things
together.
In the last year, however, we looked down upon each other and rarely (很少) talked except to say
terrible things. I 2 her for a long time.
My family moved from Massachusetts to Kansas a month ago. To my 3 , she gave me a teddy
bear as a farewell present. She"d designed it herself and 4 made a scarf for it. She also wrote a card
that said:
Hey Frances,
Wow ... you were my best 5 for two amazing years. But now you"re 6 hundreds of miles
away. I am going to miss you! There are many things I regret doing to you. And now that I want to say
7 to you, I have to make it fit into one little 8 . Fifth grade was a trip. We two new girls became
friends immediately. Sixth grade was 9 , even though the path was hard. In 7th grade we made new
friends. We wouldn"t even say "hi". Was it my fault (错误) that we fought? I feel sorry and I don"t know
10 . You won"t be here next week so we can"t go to the movies or the mall one last time. Now that
you"ve done reading my sloppy card ... bye. Hope you can forgive (原谅) me.
Sincerely. Love always,
Michelle
This card made me cry for the first time during the move. It made me 11 that moving keeps you
away from people you care about. I also realized that I cared for Michelle more than I thought. If we try to
forgive and 12 , life will be easier and happier.
take my dog Rosie with me, so I spoke to my vet (兽医) before I booked the tickets. Rosie would have to
travel in a large wooden box, and I wanted to check that she would be OK. The vet said that Rosie would be
fine because it was only a short flight.
When the plane landed in Seattle at five o"clock, I asked the flight attendant if I could stay in my seat
until Rosie was taken off the plane. The flight attendant told me to get off the plane immediately, and that I
should wait for Rosie at the baggage claim area (行李认领处). So I went to the baggage claim area and
waited until all the baggage had been taken off the plane. Soon I was the only person waiting and there was
still no sign of Rosie.
After forty-five minutes, I asked a woman who worked for the airline if she could find out where my
dog was. After I"d waited another thirty minutes, she told me that the plane was now flying to Los Angeles.
Rosie was still on the plane! It wasn"t until eleven thirty that night that the airline found Rosie in Los Angeles.
There were no more flights that night so she had to spend the night in her box at Los Angeles airport.
I got Rosie back the next morning, but by this time she had been in her box for over eighteen hours.
Poor Rosie!
goes with me wherever I go because I believe luck would 1 me everywhere.
Whenever I felt there was a trouble, I would 2 for my two-dollar bill and set it on the table, I would
watch it for several hours and could always come up with 3 .
When I began to look for my first job, I was thirty years old and very 4 . The thought of being
interviewed (面试) for a job was scary (恐怖的) but I had to work. Mrs. Martin, the office manager, asked me
some questions and the interview was over. As I got 5 her office, I said, "Mrs. Martin, I know that I am
not the best applicant (申请者), but please give me a chance. I learn quickly and can be a very 6 member
of your team."
That evening I received a phone call from Mrs. Martin. "Gina," she said. "You were not the best applicant,
but you have so much confidence (信心) in yourself that we have 7 to give you a chance." "Thank you so
much, Mrs. Martin!" I said. I was so excited that I forgot to say 8 to Mrs. Martin.
I took out my two-dollar bill. "Thanks, Mom. I am going to 9 it," I sad out loud so my mother could
hear me.
At that moment, I remember the time she pulled all of us into the living room and said, "You are all clever
in my 10 , but if you fail once, don"t give up. You will be successful." I still think of Mom every day and
keep my two-dollar bill in my wallet. At a family reunion (团聚) years later, I found that my brothers and sisters
11 had two-dollar bills in their wallets. We laughed and talked about how 12 this gift from Mom had
been to each of us.
A little boy invited his mother to his school"s first teacher-parent meeting. To the little boy"s disappointment (失望), she said she would go. This 1 be the first time that his classmates and teacher 2 his mother and
he felt ashamed (丢脸) of what she looked. 3 she was a beautiful woman, there was a deep scar (伤痕)
that covered the whole right side of her face. The boy never wanted to 4 why or how she got the scar.
At the meeting, the people were impressed (留下印象) by the kindness and natural beauty of his mother in
spite of (尽管) the scar, but the little boy still felt uncomfortable and hid himself from everyone. However, he
could hear the conversation 5 his mother and his teacher. The teacher asked 6 , "How did you get the
scar on your face?" The mother replied, " 7 my son was a baby, he was in a room that caught fire. Everyone
was 8 afraid to go in because the fire was terrible, so I went in. As I was running toward his bed, I saw a
long 9 of wood coming down and I placed myself over him trying to keep him from hurt. I was knocked,
but luckily, a fireman came in and saved 10 of us." She said slowly, "This scar will be lasting, but to this day, I have never regretted (后悔) what I did."
At this point, the little boy came out running toward his mother with tears in his eyes. This was his first
time to hear the story. He 11 her in his arms and felt the great 12 from his mother. He held her hand
tightly for the rest of the day.
of time. People think I"m selfish or not kind-hearted. But I don"t feel sorry for that, and I think more parents
will be coming around to my way of thinking. Britain"s universities are failing to serve either the country or
our children. It"s about time we voted (投票) with our feet.
I can"t remember when I began to change my mind on education. Like a lot of middle-class parents,
we had believed that going to university was what your children did. It"s one of the reasons (理由) we offered
more than $ 100,000 in fees (学费) for Jim to go to a private (私立) school rather than a free public one.
Education is more important than nice cars, new kitchens or skiing holidays.
Jim is a young boy of whom any parent would be proud. He"s clever and helpful; he"s good at things like
hanging pictures and mending doors; he can get on well with other kids. But he"s shown little interest in study.
It"s not Jim"s intellect (智力) that"s the problem-after he entered the school he was asked to sit an exam
but an in-built reluctance (勉强) to do any more work than necessary to get by. We"ve tried everything to make
him work harder. None of it has worked. For his final exams, Jim got a D and two Es. Even allowing for our
low expectations (期望), this came as a surprise to his mother and me.
"Surely," I said to one of Jim"s teachers, "the only subject Jim would get on with such poor grades would
be the kind of subject that wouldn"t be worth doing anyway."
"Not at all," the teacher answered, as if speaking to a dinosaur. He read out the names of a lot of univer-
sities I"d never heard of, saying they"d all be fit for Jim.
It was at this point I realized how far away I was from today"s education. I knew that, since I was at
school in the early 1980s-when a student with such poor grades as Jim"s would not have been allowed to go to
any university-the population in the UK going on to higher education has gone up from 14% to a surprising 44%.
B. there are few universities in the UK
C. Jim won"t be allowed to go to university
D. it"s a waste of time and money to do so
