I really like r1. and writing short stories. These stories are usually about 6 to 20 pages long which focus on an interesting person, a problem which the person had, and what happened when the person tried to solve the problem. All societies seem to have an oral story-telling tradition in which people met t2. to tell each other short stories, and in which parents told their children stories at bedtime. This was certainly true in England, in India. in Kenya, in Mexico and in Japan. Was it true in China, too? In many countries; oral story telling is still important, but in most countries now~ stories are written down and p3. in books. My favorite collection of short stories is a book called The Story Giant by Brian Patten in which a giant knows all the stories in the world e4. one. If he doesn't find the last story he'll die. In the book he gets four children from different parts of the world to tell him stories in the hope that
he will find the last story so he can stay a5. and pass the world's stories on forever. Do you think he finds the last story?
I also like reading novels. One of my favourite novels is called Life of Pi. It is written by a Canadian called Yann Martel,and is about an Indian boy who spends a long time at sea after a shipwreck (海滩) a 6. with nobody but a tiger. What about you? Do you have a favourite novel?
Not many people read plays these days, but many people still enjoy watching them at the theatre or on television. Perhaps the l 7. popular form of literature(文学) is poetry. This is because many poems are very d8.to understand, and often seem to be written and read by very clever people. I wish I c 9. write poems which e 10. can understand．
Last month. I returned to Australia to attend my elder sister's wedding. Although it was a very modern wedding, my sister kept one tradition that comes from an old English poem.
The poem says that a bride(新娘) must wear, "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue". It is said to bring good luck to the marriage.
Something old is something passed on from the bride's family. It could be an heirloom (传家宝)that has been in the family for years, or a piece of her mother's dress. This is meant to show a connection with the bride's family.
Something new brings hope for the future of the couple. It can be the new wedding dress or new shoes.
Something borrowed is normally an item of clothing or jewelry. It is borrowed from one of the bride's friends who have a happy marriage. It is believed to bring some of the friend's luck in her marriage to the bride.
Last is something blue which comes from another thyme: "Marry in blue. husband be true.
This means that a bride who wears blue will have a faithful husband. It could be blue on her jewelry or on her shoes.
These days, most brides do not believe that wearing these items will really bring them good
luck. However, they wear them anyway, thinking that traditions are important.

My class and I visited Chris Care Center in Phoenix, Arizona to comfort the old people who needed a little cheering up during the holiday season.
The first two there were for persons requiring help in taking care of themselves. We sang beautifully for them. They loved our sweet songs and the flowers that we left with them.
As we were singing on the third floor for old people with Alzheimer(老年痴呆症), most of them looked off at the walls or floor. However, one lady my eye. She was sitting by the door, in a wheelchair, singing songs to herself. They weren’t the songs that we were singing, at least they didn’t like that. As we got with each song, she did as well. The louder we got, the louder she got. she was singing, she was also reaching out to us with her hands and body. I knew that I should have gone over to her, but I thought that my responsibilities(责任) were to my students. People who worked at the care center could attend to her, I thought. Just when I stopped feeling about not giving her the attention she needed, one of my students, Justin, showed me what the holiday season is really about.
Justin also the same lady. The difference between us is that he acted on her needs, but I didn’t. During the last song,Silent Night, Justin walked over to her and held her hand. He looked this aged lady in her eyes and with his actions said, “You are important, and I will take my to let you know that.”
This tired, elderly lady stopped singing and held his hand. Then she touched his cheek with the other hand. Tears began to fall down her face. No words can completely describe that touching moment.
It took a boy to teach me, a man, about kindness and love. Justin’s example of a complete, selfless attitude(态度) toward another was a that I will never forget. He was the teacher that day, and I consider myself to have witnessed(目击) his lesson.
