Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I’ll give you a quick introduction to the school before I you around. Our school is called a “free school”. This means that pupils are free to choose what and how they want to learn.
The school opens at 9 am, the children can arrive a little late if they like. Most of them are in school by ten. eight and nine most are in the living room and the kitchen downstairs. This is also a time children and teachers can work out what they are to do for the day.
Now if you look the door of that big room, you will see those children busy doing something there. Several children are in the kitchen Miss Cabell with lunch. The children take to do this. After lunch it’s someone else’s job to do the washing-up. This job isn’t and not many of them like to do it.
After lunch the children go on with what they’ve been doing school is over. On Friday we sometimes take the children to a cinema or a museum. The school is also every weekend for those children who want to come.

I’m always not sure whether my parents love each other or not. Every day they are very busy making money so that they can a good life for my sister and me. They don’t act in the usual ways that I read in books or I see on TV. Also, they never send to each other on Feb, 14.
One day, my mother was sewing* a quilt. I quietly sat down beside her.
“Is there love you and Dad?” asked I.
With a little surprise in her eyes, my mother stopped to raise her head and me. She said for long time. At last I heard my mother’s voice:
“Jane,” she said, “Look at this thread*. sometimes it appears, most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and lasting. If life is a quilt, then should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there, and disappears.”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her the next spring, when my father suddenly got seriously. My mother had to look after him in the hospital for a month. When they home, every day in the morning and evening, my mother helped my father walk slowly. They often walked without a word. And after two months, my father still couldn’t walk by . All of us were worried about him very much.
“Dad, are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Jane,nothing serious. To tell you the truth, I just like with your mom. I like this kind of life,even if I cannot walk anymore.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant good presents and sweet kisses. But now, I understand that love is just like a thread in the quilt. Love is inside, making our nice and warm.

Once a small boy lived on the farm which seemed so far away from everywhere. He needed to get up sunrise every morning to help his father on the farm. During sunrise he would and climb up on the fence(篱笆) along the side of the farm. He could see a house with golden windows. “ If they could golden windows, then there must be other nice things inside the house.” He how great it would be to live there. Then he himself, “ Some day I will go there and see this wonderful place.”
One morning his father would go to town told him to stay at home for a rest. Knowing that this was his , he took a sandwich and headed across the field the house with the golden windows.
As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how he was. The house was much farther than he had expected. As he went near the house, he saw golden windows but instead a place in bad of painting. A small girl very close to his came out of the poor house and stood by the broken fence. He asked her she had seen the house with the golden windows. The girl said,” Sure, I know,” and invited him to sit on the porch(门廊). As he sat there, he looked back from he just came. There he saw the turned the windows of his house to gold! Now he understood that everyone had his own house with golden windows.
