Ma Yan is not really a writer, but this 15-year-old girl has written a book that has moved many people around the world. Ma Yan’s diary tells us about Ma’s life. She lives in a poor village called Zhangjiashu in Tongxin, Ningxia, and she has no money to go to school. However, she is brave and wants to go to school very much.
Her mother gave her diary to a reporter, Pierre Haski when he went to Zhangjiashu in 2001. Now, Ma Yan’s diary has been published in France, Italy, Germany, Japan and China.
Ma Yan is now a Junior Three student at Yuwang Middle School in Tongxin. Before this, she had to drop out of school twice. She had to stop going to school the first time, because her mum told her there was no money for her to go to school. She worked for 21 days and saved 13 yuan. With this money, she went back to school. The second time, her family told her she had to leave school while her two brothers could stay.
“I want to study,” Ma Yan wrote in her diary. “Why can boys study but girls can’t? It would be wonderful if I could stay at school forever.”
Ma Yan loves school so much because she wants to have a better life.
“My parents work hard in the fields but they are still poor. They have no knowledge(知识). Most girls in my village leave school early and get married young. I don’t want that kind of life,” Ma Yan said.

Here is how to leave the supermarket with the things you wanted to buy and nothing more.
Suggestion 1: Pick up a basket. You’ll head straight for the checkout (收款台) when it starts to get heavy. Don’t use the trolleys (购物车) because they will make you put in extra things. |
Suggestion 2: Make a list and stick to(坚持) it. Supermarkets usually place things we use every day far away, such as bread and milk. So you have to walk along the aisles (过道) in between, buying things you don’t really need on the way. |
Suggestion 3: Keep away from BOGOFs (Buy One Get One Free offers). Just how many watermelons can you eat in a week? Fruit and vegetables usually work out cheaper. |
Suggestion 4: Look up and down. The most expensive things are placed in the middle. For cheaper things, check the higher and the lower places. |
How many suggestions does the writer give us?
A.One. | B.Two. | C.Three. | D.Four. |

About ten men in every hundred have the trouble of color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected(感染)in this matter. Perhaps, after all ,it is safer to be driven by a woman.
There are different kinds of color blindness. For example, a man cannot see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades (影子) of green. Sometimes a person can’t tell the difference between blue and green. Only a few unlucky men may see everything in shades of green— a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a different thing to explain. In only one eye there are millions of very small things called “cones(锥状细胞)” . These help us to see in the bright light and to tell differences between colors. These are also millions of “rods“(杆状细胞),but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shapes but not colors.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue light will. Human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the help of the cones in our eyes, we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the help of the rods we can see shapes at night.“Color blindness” means in Chinese.
A. 盲目 B. 无色 C 色盲 D 讨厌颜色 Some people say it’s safer to be driven by women because .
A.women drive more carefully |
B.women are better at driving than men |

With the help of the “cones”, we can .
A.tell different shapes | B.kill insets |
C.see in the dark | D.tell orange from yellow |
We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a light.
A.red | B.yellow | C.blue | D.green |

A.None of men can see deep red. |
B.Not all of men have the same problem in recognizing colors. |

American Classroom Rules
1. If the teacher asks a question, you should give an answer. If you do not understand the question, you should put up your hand and ask the teacher to repeat the question. If you don’t know the answer , it’s all right to tell the teacher that you don’t know . Then he or she knows what you need to learn.
2. There is no excuse for not doing your homework. If you can not go to school, you should call your teacher or your classmate and ask for the homework. It is your responsibility to find out what homework you have missed. It is not the teacher’s job to remind you of missed homework.
3. You must not be absent(缺席) on a test day. If you are badly ill, call and let the teacher know you will not be there for the test. If your teacher allows you to take a makeup , you should take the test within one or two days after you return to class. Bad illness is the only reason for missing a test.
