One day， I walked into a stranger as he walked by me． "Oh， excuse me．" I said． He replied with a smile and said， " Please excuse me， too． I wasn't watching out for you．" We apologized（道歉）and went our own ways．
Later that day， when I was cooking， my daughter was standing too close to me． When I turned to reach for some milk， I nearly knocked her over． " Move out of the way．" I shouted． She walked away sadly． But I didn't feel like I had to apologize to her．
While I was in bed that evening， my husband said to me， "Dealing with a stranger， you were polite， but with a daughter you love， you were unkind． Your daughter brought you some flowers that she picked herself this afternoon． You'll find them in the kitchen by the door． Have you seen the tears in her eyes？"
I quietly went and knelt down by my daughter's bed " Honey， I am so sorry． " I said， "Are these the flowers you picked for me？" She said， "I found them by the tree． I picked them because they're pretty like you． I knew you'd like them， especially the blue ones．"I tearfully replied， "Sweetie， I'm really sorry for the way I acted today． I shouldn't have shouted at you．" It's okay．I love you anyway．" she said as she kissed me on my cheek．

It is not easy for people to sail (航海) around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents(事故) can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes(洞) in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat——a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.
How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire（愿望）to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people cannot cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw (生的) fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food, or they will die.Is sailing around the world in quite small boats easy or difficult?
One family once had an accident at sea, why?
What can people catch for food and drink at sea in a lifeboat?
If people in a lifeboat don’t eat raw food, what will happen to them?
What do you think makes people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time?
I think the Buddy Club is great. I really enjoy talking with the older students about school life and growing up. They can tell me a lot. One student told me how he relaxed (放松) before exams. Another student told me about great websites about learning History and English.
The Buddy Club is also a good place to just forget about school altogether! One of the older students taught us origami (日本折纸). We made paper planes, birds and hats together.
The table tennis tournament（锦标赛) was a great idea. I didn’t do very well, but I learnt a lot from watching the doubles tournament won by a fourteen-year-old girl and a seventeen-year-old boy.
Last year, we had the annual (每年的) Buddy Club Picnic. Everyone enjoyed the games we played. After I learnt how to fish, I caught two fish in the lake. I think it might be a good idea to change the Buddy Club Picnic to a weekend camping trip. We could learn how to put up (架起) tents (帐篷) and how to find our way through a forest. Many of the older students know how to do this already, and I think they would like to teach the younger students.
I want to say again how much I enjoy the club. When I’m older, I will make friends with younger students. Then, I can tell them all about school life and growing up.What does the writer enjoy doing at the club?
| A．Learning Japanese. |
| B．Talking to older students. |
| C．Losing at table tennis. |
| D．Surfing the Internet. |
Did the writer win the table tennis tournament?
| A．No, and he was very unhappy. |
| B．No, but came second. |
| C．Yes, he won the doubles. |
| D．No, but he enjoyed watching it. |
How does the writer want to change the picnic?
| A．He wants more fish to be caught. |
| B．He wants to make it shorter. |
| C．he wants to have it in a tent. |
| D．He wants to change it to a camping trip. |
What does the writer want to learn?
| A．How to put up a tent and make a fire. |
| B．How to put up a tent and find his way through a forest. |
| C．How to make clean water and find his way through a forest. |
| D．How to find his way through a forest and climb a mountain. |
Peter wondered why he didn’t have many friends. The reason was he was always taking, never giving.
One day Peter told Bill, “I’d like to give a party on Saturday, I’d like you to come and bring Martha, too.” “Thanks, Peter. We’d be happy to come.” “Perhaps you’d like to bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together. I’m sure everyone will want you to sing for us.” That was how Peter began to plan his party. Next he asked another friend, Betty, to bring a cake. “You make the best cake in the world, Betty, and I like to eat your cake better than have one from the bakery.” Peter invited a few other friends to come to his party. He didn’t forget to ask something from each one of them. He even asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house! They agreed.
