One day Tony was crossing the road when he was hit a car. He fell and broke his arm.
He was sent to a hospital. There a doctor operated on his arm. Then he put the arm in a cast(石膏). Tony could not move it at all.
“You must keep your arm in a cast for a month.” The doctor said, “That will give the bone(骨头) a chance to get well”.
A moment later, Tony went back to the hospital. The doctor used a large knife to cut the cast. Then he took Tony’s arm out of the cast.
“Can you move your arm, Tony?” he asked.
Tony tried to move his arm. At last it was difficult, but soon he could move it easily.
“Yes, it’s fine”. He said, “Thank you very much”
“In a few days it will be as good as before.” the doctor said, “Just exercise it a little every day.”
“Will I be able to play the guitar?” Tony asked.
The doctor smiled, “Of course, you will.” He said, “you will have no problems.”
“That’s good news.” Tony said, “Because I couldn’t play it at all before.

When we talk about how teenagers are getting worse and worse now, most young people don’t agree. Teenagers always say they are growing up. They can have part-time jobs. And they can even drive a car.
Their parents say, “Our children are very good. They like pop music and they play it in their own rooms. They help us in the house. You know they feel bored sometimes because there’s nothing interesting in the neighbourhood, no clubs, and no sports.”
A teacher says that he believes most young people are very kind. He thinks that it’s not bad for young people to like loud music because it can give them lots of energy and makes them feel excited. Also, a lot of young people work very hard at school, and they can get good jobs later.
Lewis, a sixteen-year-old boy said, “I have passed all my examinations but I can’t get a part- time job because older people always think I’ m lazy.”
In my opinion, a lot of teenagers are very kind. They belong to community(社区) work groups. They help old people, and they also volunteer in local hospitals or primary schools to help look after patients and younger students.
