I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧马场). The last time I was there he told me his story.
When he was young, his family is too poor to have a house to live in. One day when he was in a high school, 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 describing his goal of owning a horse ranch. He also drew a picture to show a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a beautiful farm. 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. Roberts asked, “Why did I receive an F?” His teacher said, “This is an unrealistic (不现实的) dream for a young boy like you. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money.” Then the teacher added, “ If you rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider (重新考虑) your grade.”
The boy went home and thought about it for a long and hard time. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, “Look, son, you have to change your own mind on this.” Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy handed in the same paper, making no changes at all. He told his teacher “You can keep the F and I sill keep my dream.”
Monty said a lot of kids’ dreams can be stolen. Don’t let anyone steal your dream. Follow your heart, no matter what others think. Have enough gumption (毅力) till your dream comes true.Who owns a horse ranch? _______________________________________

The message was short. I read it three times: “Hey, Mom, can I come to see you?” I wrote back: “Yes!” He said he hoped to make it in time for dinner.
I made a quick run to the market, put sheets on the guest bed and set the TV to record the Warriors’ game, so if traffic was awful, he wouldn’t have to miss the first half. Then I began cooking, cleaning, watching the clock and listening for his footsteps coming up the walk.
It’s called waiting. I’m good at it. When he was a newborn, I’d wait for him to go to sleep. Soon then I’d stand by his bed waiting for him to wake up. I waited, as he learned to do things like walking, talking and feeding himself; throwing a ball, riding a bike and reading a book.
I waited for him to start preschool, primary school, middle school and college.
I waited with dread for him to start driving. And I waited up every time he came home late.
I wait for my son to grow up, but that doesn’t mean the waiting game is over. It never really ends.
Mothers wait for all kinds of reasons—good news or bad, happiness or heartache. But the waiting is soon forgotten, usually, the minute a long awaited child walks through the door.

Some city schools have brought WeChat(微信) into the classroom now. Students and teachers communicate by WeChat. Is WeChat good to use in classroom? Here come some different voices from students.
I don’t think we should use WeChat in class. We need to use mobile phones for Wechat. But it is hard for teachers to manage the class. Some students can’t control themselves if they have mobile phones. They will use them to play games or QQ in class. So I think it is not necessary to use WeChat in class. --Guo Ruiting, 14, Guangdong |
I think it’s good for teachers to use Wechat in class. When they raise a question, all students will be glad to answer it on Wechat. They don’t have to raise their hands, but just use the keyboard to note down a few words. And the way helps to relax everyone. It helps us to answer questions as well. --Zhang Yaoyi, 12, from Shanghai |
We used Wechat in class once. It was good. Everyone was excited to see their words on the screen. Some students used to be shy in class. They didn’t speak in class. But everyone was surprised to see them talking a lot on WeChat. So I think it is good for us to use things like Wechat in class. --Liu Qing, 15, from Zhejiang |
We chat is good for class. However, we must use it carefully. When we use it in class, most students are excited to take part in activities and happy to talk about any questions. Surely, teachers are able to manage the time and control the class, or the class must be a little bit messy. --Sun Jiayang, 13, from JIangsu |

Nowadays, computers and Internet are playing an important part in our life. We usually need to set passwords(密码) when we use computers and Internet. In order to keep our accounts (账户)and personal information safe, we must learn how to set safe passwords.
Experts have some useful advice for you. You’d better remember them. First, make your password out of capital(大写的)letters. It only takes a hacker(黑客)10 minutes to work out a 6-letter password made of small letters. But the same password in capital letters takes 10 hours to work out. Second, add numbers or symbols to your password. It may be much safer. Third, never use personal information for passwords and use different passwords for different accounts. At last, a user should change his or her passwords every 90 days. In this way, hackers won’t guess your passwords.What do we usually need to do when we use computers and Internet?
