Sixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile.
It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school, and my old school was far away. As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to speak to anyone. Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldn’t talk with anyone about my problems.
Then one day, when my classmates were talking happily with their friends, I was sitting at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didn’t know who he was. He passed by me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile. Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with other students and made friends. Day by day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
One day I asked him why he had smiled, but he couldn’t remember doing so!
It doesn’t matter because all the dark days have gone. I believe that the world is what you think it is. If you think it is lonely, you might always be alone. So smile at the world and it will smile back.

“Vocabulary” means the words of a language. To learn vocabulary, you need to check four things.
Spelling To learn a word, you need to how to spell it. You can try the LCWC(look, cover, write, check)method(方法). First, look at the word and read it out loud. Next, cover the word so it can’t be seen. Then, write the word down. Finally, uncover the word and check if you’ve spelt it correctly. |
Pronunciation How do you pronunciation a word? Do you pronounce it the same way as you spell it? If so, you may pronounce it wrong. For example, the pronunciation of “ough” is different in each of these words: “through”, “bough” and “rough”. You also need to know where the stress(the strong sound) is in a word. |
Meaning You need to keep in mind that words often have more than one meaning in English. Take the word “dust” for example. If you dust the bedroom, you are removing the dust. The first “dust” is a verb meaning “to clean”; the second “dust” is a noun meaning “the things being cleaned away”. |
Use How do you use a word? D o you know if it is formal? Do you know what other words it can use with and when? An example is “ yours”. You can use it to show possession(拥有), as in “ This book is yours.” And you can also use it at the end of a less formal letter, e.g. “ Yours, Peter Brown.” At the end of a formal letter you can use it with “Sincerely”, though generally in America the use is “Sincerely yours,” and in the UK, it is “Yours sincerely”. |

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because the airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but it still takes hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually good in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the window. You can see many interesting things on your way, though it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey whenever you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
