Wind On The Hill

By A. A. Milne

No one can tell me,

Nobody knows,

Where the wind comes from,

Where the wind goes.

 

It's flying from somewhere

As fast as it can,

I couldn't keep up with it,

Not if I ran.

 

But if I stopped holding

The string of my kite,

It would blow with the wind

For a day and a night.

 

And then when I found it,

Wherever it blew,

I should know that the wind

Had been going there too.

 

So then I could tell them

Where the wind goes.

But where the wind comes from

Nobody knows.

18. 难度:困难

You probably know you should say "please" and "thank you" at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?

Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears, so even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 player, you shouldn't have it turned up too high.

Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 player off and put it away. Libraries and schools don't allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don't have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on.

Take One Out! Once in a while it's okay just to take out one earphone and not other. Imagine you are listening to your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it's not for you.

It's Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when read books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.

1.The underlined word "volume" in Paragraph Two probably means"        .

A. the type of music    B. the length of a song

C. the amount of a sound    D. the colour of an MP3 player

2.We can take one earphone out when we        .

A. show a stranger the way    B. talk to friends on the phone

C. read a book in the library    D. have dinner with our parents

3.It's all right to use our MP3 player in        .

A. schools    B. libraries    C. restaurants    D. museums

4.What can be the best title of this passage?

A. Music Lovers    B. Music Manners    C. MP3 Players    D. MP3 Earphones

One of Mark Twain's classic novels is The Adventures(冒险)of Tom Sawyer. It is set in a small American town in the 19th century. The people in this town are very traditional(传统的)and live a quiet life.

The story is about a boy called Tom Sawyer, who lives with his aunt Polly. He is often in trouble with his aunt. Aunt Polly is very kind, but Tom thinks she is always trying to control him.

Tom is different from the other children in the town. He loves adventure. He does a lot of bad things, but he never really hurts anyone. He tries very hard not to go to school, and often jumps out of his bedroom window at night to meet his friends. He is very clever. One day, Aunt Polly asks him to do some painting, and he manages to get all the boys in the town to do the work for him by inventing a new painting game.

They make fires, catch fish and sleep under the stars. They also make a boat to travel up and down the river. Without seeing the boys for days, the people in the town think that they have died. One day, when Tom comes back to his aunt's house to leave a letter saying that he is not dead, he hears his aunt talking about his funeral(葬礼).Then Tom has an idea. On the morning of their funeral, the boys run back into town and attend their own funeral before telling everyone that they are still alive.

I am my mother's third girl. When I was born, the doctor gently explained to my mother that my left arm was missing, below the elbow(肘).Then he gave her some advice, "Don't treat her any differently from the other girls." And she did!

There were five girls in our family and we all had to help out. Once when I was about seven, I came out of the kitchen, "Mum, I can't peel(削……皮)potatoes. I only have one hand." "You get back to peel those potatoes, and don't ever use that as an excuse for anything again!"

Of course I could peel potatoes一with my good hand and my other arm. "Jenny, if you try hard enough," she said, "you can do anything."

Once in the second grade, our teacher had each of us race across the monkey bar(攀爬架).When it was my turn, I said no. Some kids laughed. I went home crying.

The next afternoon Mum took me back to the school playground. "Now, pull up with your right arm," she advised. She praised me when I made progress. I'll never forget when I was crossing the bar, the kids were standing there with their mouths open.

It was the way with everything. Mum had the courage to face anything. And she taught me I could, too.

1.What happened to Jenny when she was born?

______________________________________________________________________________

2.How did the other kids feel when they saw Jenny crossing the monkey bar?
