24、 Monty Roberts was the son of a horse trainer who would go from farm to farm training horses. Once when he was a senior school student, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven-page paper talking about his goal of someday owning a horse ranch(养马场). He wrote about his dream and he even drew a plan for a large ranch.
The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, “See me after class.”
The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, “Why did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “I can’t give you a good grade. There’s no way you could ever realize your dream! You have no money! You come from a poor family! Owning a horse ranch needs a lot of money!”
The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, “Now, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.”
Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.”
Twenty years later, that same school teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on Monty’s ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, “Look, Monty, I can tell you this now.

25、 The first time I ever really noticed a disabled person, I was studying in the third grade. I saw some disabled people before, but I never really knew or cared about what those persons go through(经历).
When a new student arrived in my third grade class. I thought it would just be a common student, but this student was different. His name was Derek and he had autism(孤独症). He sometimes had random outbursts (随意的发作) during class and we would stand there, doing nothing because we didn’t know why he was doing that. When he sat down at desk, we would try to get away from him. After class, we would play jokes on each other, imitating Derek, and laughing about it.
Then one day, Derek’s mom came to our class and talked with us. She told us that Derek wasn’t just having random outbursts-- he was trying to communicate. Then she chose a volunteer and filled, that person’s mouth with soft sweets. When we found the volunteer had great trouble in trying to speak, the mother explained that was what Derek was going through every day. We all understood her meaning.
After this talk, no one tried to make fun of Derek or run away from him. We accepted his outbursts in class and he became one of our friends. Having a class with Derek has taught me to have an open mind to those who are different from us. My experience in having an autistic classmate has, provided me with a good lesson.
Now whenever I meet a family with a child who’s behaving differently, I always remember what I have learned in my third grade class and go up to him or her.

27、Peanuts to This
Proudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had worked hard on, hoping to hide myself. ―What could be causing everyone to act this way?
Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real talk I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this man, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts(花生), while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a piece of advice: flip (掷) a coin. Heads(正面)—the commander, and tails(反面)—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.
Weeks later, standing before the unfriendly class, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, ―My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution. The whole world became quiet! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?
Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not fair, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Therefore, I devoted myself fully into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance came as I found myself sitting in the headmaster’s office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!
【1】What did the author’s classmates think about his report?
A.scary. B.foolish.
C.boring. D.puzzling.
【2】Why was the author confused about the task?
A.He was unfamiliar with American history. B.He followed the advice and flipped a coin.
C.He forgot his teacher’s instruction. D.He was new at the school.
【3】In the end, the author turned things around .
A.by redoing his task B.through his own efforts
C.with the help of his grandfather D.under the guidance of his headmaster
28、I often hear some students say English is difficult, and it gives them a headache. But English is very easy for me. I’m good at it. I’m very glad 【1】 (tell) you something about how I study English. First, I think an interest in English is very important. When I learned English first, it was fresh for me. I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it and soon 【2】 (get) a very good mark. How happy I was! After that, I learned English harder and harder. And I also have a good habit: whenever I have a question, I must make it clear by 【3】 (ask) our teacher.
Second, I think English is a foreign language. I should learn it well. I often 【4】(listen) to the teacher carefully, speak bravely, read aloud and have a good vocabulary. Then practice again and again, never be tired. I think English 【5】 (learn) well, because it is useful. Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels. They help me 【6】 (understand ) a lot of things. So to do more reading is an important way to learn English well.
I 【7】 (study)for almost three years. English has become a close friend of mine. I hope each of you will learn English well.
