25、When I arrived in the US, I felt very sad because life in the US was different from life in my country. My first day of school was at Takoma Park Middle School in March last year. I was very nervous in that morning and I didn’t want to get up. When I went to my first class, I didn’t know what to do because I didn’t know what the teacher said. But there were many people who spoke the same language as me, while some of them were laughing at me, because they came before me and they understood the language better than me.
But there were three girls who helped me. Their names are Maryori, Jezabel and Beverly. As the days passed, I had some new friends and Beverly became my best friend. She always helped me with my study.
Three months later, the school year ended and I had to come to Blair High School. On my first day of school at Blair, I felt it was different from my first day in middle school because it was a beginning of a new school year and there were many new students. I felt better because I knew that I wasn’t the only new student.

26、
I have a problem. Her name is Luca. We do not see eye to eye.
Like yesterday, we saw the number 9, 999. She said, “All lose nines. They feel so... so purple!”
Purple? I saw it as logical and orderly. Not as colours. I think Luca and I live in different universes.
But we have to do a report on the Statue of liberty. I really doubt if I can work with her.
At our first meeting on Friday, we come up with a plan. She will make a Statue of Liberty, and I’ll write the report. But on Monday, with only one week until our report is due, she tells me she’s leaving to visit her great-grandfather for six days, because he’s ill. It means that I, the one who can’t even draw a stick figure, will have to make the statue. And she the one who doesn’t like to think logically, will have to write the report.
“Please be at my house at 2:00 on Sunday,” I say I cross my fingers.
While she’s gone, I spend lots of hours making the sculpture according to some directions I find online.
Sunday at 2:00 arrives, and Luca is late. Finally, I see her skipping down the sideway, carrying only a small piece of equipment
“What’s that?” I ask. “Where’s the report?”
“It’s a digital recorder,” she says. “A report didn’t feel right, so I did something else.”
I try to keep my voice calm as I say, “But this is not about feelings. It’s about the Statue of Liberty. Statues don’t have feelings.” Our project is due tomorrow. We’re doomed.
“Statues don’t have feelings, but my great-grandfather does.” Luca says.
Now I am quite sure that we’re from two different universes because I have no idea about what she’s talking about.
“I interviewed him about when he came to America and saw the Statue of Liberty,” she continues. “Listen.” She turns on the recording.
A scratchy voice comes on. “In Hungary, I had no food and hoped to go to America, where I could eat, have a better life. Finally I got on the ship. Then the sunshine started. Oh! There she was. Lady Liberty Like hope itself. All of us cried. All my life, I remember that feeling of seeing the lady.”
Looking at Luca. I think a while. “You are right That’s what the Statue of liberty is all about. Who says a report has to be on paper? I say quietly. And a smile spreads over her face.
Can you imagine what happens while we are making the presentation the next day? When Luca’s great-grandfather says “All my life. I remember that feeling, of seeing the Lady.” everyone is staring at our statue, quiet.
【1】The idiom “see eye to eye” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”.
A.like each other B.have good eyesight
C.want to see each other D.share the same viewpoint
【2】What can we know about Luca from the passages?
A.She doesn’t like writing reports.
B.She is not a very friendly person.
C.She has her own ideas about the report.
D.She visits her great-grandfather to interview him.
【3】What does everyone think of their presentation?
A.Boring. B.Relaxing. C.Embarrassing D.Moving.

Dear Miss Yu,
I’m Linda. I’m writing this letter because I want to tell you that the school year I spent with you was special to me.
I used to be very shy and quiet. You never said much to me. But you did something that made a big difference to my life.
In the past, I hated English. I didn’t think it was interesting. And my English was very poor. In Grade 9, you became my English teacher. You always made your classes lively arid interesting. I found it easy to remember what you taught us. Once I was asked to introduce myself in English. Because of my poor English, you didn’t say anything bad but told me if I worked hard on my pronunciation, I would do better. Your encouragement changed me a lot. From then on, I began to study English very hard.
Now, I enjoy studying English. My dream is to become an English teacher. I want to help students study English like you.
Yours,
Linda
