When the bell rings, every student takes out an IPad. The light from the screens makes their young faces pretty and lively.
That’s what happens every day at my school in the US. We use IPad in class.
I felt surprised and excited when I got an IPad the first day I arrived at the school. But it was not free. I paid about $99 to rent it for three years.
Every IPad at my school has a special learning system called Focus. Teachers put their teaching materials like textbooks and PPTs on it. When we have classes, we enter the system and download the materials with our IPads.
It makes the classes interesting and efficient. For example, several weeks ago, we learned about former South African president Nelson Mandela. Our teacher prepared a video in which Mandela made an encouraging speech. We could not only watch the video, but also check the transcript (文字稿）at the same time. Because of the video, I know more about the great man.
We also do our homework with IPads. If the homework is made up of multiple choices(选择题），we can know our grades right away after we submit(提交)our homework. If it’s articles, teachers grade them online, without needing to look through so many papers.
However, there are still some bad points about learning with IPads. Some of my classmates play games or log on social networking websites (社交网站）in class.
I believe the key to use Ipads well is to have good self-control (自制力), isn’t it?
1.The writer paid about _____ dollars to rent an Ipad every year.
A.99 B. 612 C. 33
2. How is an IPad used in class?
A. We enter the system－Focus and download the materials with it.
B. We only turn it on.
C. We record what the teacher said in class with it.
3.The underlined word “efficient” means “______ in Chinese.
A. 有影响的 B.高效的 C. 有活力的
4.We can’t ______ with IPads
A. do our homework
B. play games
C. grade our essays
5.What’s the best title of the passage?
A. How to use an IPad
B. Have classes with an IPad
C. How to have good self-control

A
I have just received your letter. And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model (模特).
Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn’t see. I can’t eat what I like, even though I’m very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.
Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me.
You might say I made much money from modeling. But my dear niece(侄女)，you have to know that money is nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I am too old to go back to school now.
You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.
Love,
Emma
