Learning Chinese may seem difficult to foreigners outside China. However, Daisy Raffan, an
36 girl in Britain, hopes to bring the 37 to the young people.
Daisy has 38 an online learning website to teach the language to as 39 people as possible, all over the world.
With China’s fast development in the world, Daisy thinks 40 important for people to learn the language sooner rather than later.
Daisy has been learning Putonghua 41 the age of five. Two years ago, 42 she decided to pass on what she had learned, she 43 the idea for the website, kidschineseclub.com.
She said: “People are afraid to learn Putonghua. One of the main reasons is that they think it’s an 44 language to learn, but I have had fun 45 it .And I hope what I have done is easy and fun.”
Her 46 offers a series of lessons, which are videos of Daisy teaching a group of students on topics from greetings and numbers to Chinese culture.
Daisy’s website has 47 the support of several important persons —the teenager says she has received a letter praising(赞扬) her work from Gordon Brown, 48 is the British Prime Minister(首相).
She said: “I wrote to him and told him what I was doing and got a letter 49 . He said that what I was doing was a really good idea. I thought it was amazing. I was excited that 50 was supporting what we’re doing.”

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, red apple on the tree near a house. The boy didn’t like eating __35__ very much. He preferred a piece of chocolate if he was given the choice, but this time, seeing the nice apple, the boy wanted it very much. The more he looked at the apple, the __36__ he felt and the more he wanted it.
He stood on tiptoe (脚尖), stretching (伸展) as high as he could, but he was still unable to touch it. He began to __37__ up and down, as high as he could, at the top of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of __38__.
Not giving up, he thought, if he had something to __39__ on, he could reach it. His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to __40__ the things inside, like his lunch box, pencil case, and Gameboy. Looking __41__, he hoped he might find an old box, a rock, or, with luck, even a ladder, but he found nothing that he could __42__.
He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk away. At first he felt angry and disappointed (失望的) thinking about how hungry he had become from his __43__, and how he really wanted that apple. The more he thought like this, the more unhappy he became.
However, the boy of our story was a __44__ one, even if he couldn’t always get what he wanted. He started to say to himself, “This isn’t helpful. I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling unhappy as well. There’s __45__ more I can do to get the apple. That is unchangeable. But we should try to __46__ our feelings. If that’s the case (情况), what can I do to feel better?”
