Tears filled my eyes when I stood in our room. I was washing new jeans and a shirt of my 16-year-old stepson (继子), Brett. He drank a lot last night. The clothing was already1I was very tired. The clothes were just one thing. He had already kicked a large whole2his bedroom wall. Many windows were3because of his breaking in to steal4to buy what he liked. Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During those5years I had dealt with Brett as6as possible, but inside I was feeling sad. Later, I cheered up again and continued parenting (养育) Brett. Still, Brett did not change his behavior.7Brett was nearly 18, my husband and I decided to8Brett to a boarding school that had very good result with troubled teenagers.

At that moment I realized the truth一although I had been angry in my heart towards my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions.

    I believe that it is better to travel 10,000 miles than to read 10,000 books. So I like travelling. I took a trip to the UK when I was in Grade 3. When I look back on the trip, one thing stands out –climbing St. Michael's Mount.

    St. Michael's Mount is a "mountain on the sea". It is surrounded by water. The mountain is so huge that I was shocked when I first saw it from the beach near the island. We went there by walking on a colorful stone road. I walked slowly so that I could enjoy its beauty.

    When I reached the mountain, there were some sea birds flying around. They seemed to be the "guards" of the tiny island. On the mountain, lots of huge trees were standing in front of me. Behind the tall trees, there was a castle (城堡) which was made of huge white stones, with only a few windows. Inside it was like a museum, full of works of art, like paintings and sculptures (雕像).

    When we left the mountain, we got caught up in the tide. We had to take a boat to leave. The birds were flying above us and the sun was about to set. It was some wonderful scenery.

    The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty after playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

    There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great! But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

    Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

    "I can tell you a bit about your uncle if you like," she said aloud. "He lives in a big old house, a long way from anywhere. There are nearly a hundred rooms, but most of them are shut and locked. There's a big park round the house, and all kinds of gardens. Well, your uncle is really ______________. What do you think of that?" "Nothing", replied Mary. "It doesn't matter to me."

    Mrs. Medlock laughed. "You're a hard little girl! Well, if you don't care, Mr. Craven doesn't either. He never spends time on anyone. He's got a crooked back (驼背), you see, and although he has a lot of money, he was never really happy until he married." "Married?" repeated Mary in surprise. "Yes, he married a sweet, pretty girl, and he loved her deeply. So when she died-" "Oh! Did she die?" asked Mary, interested. "Yes, she did. And now he doesn't care about anybody. If he's at home, he stays in his room and sees nobody. He won't want to see you, so you must stay out of his way and do what you're told." Mary stared out of the train window at the grey sky and the rain. She was not looking forward to life at her uncle's house. The train journey lasted all day, and it was dark when they arrived at the station. Then there was a long drive to get to the house. It was a cold, windy night, and it was raining heavily. After a while, Mary began to hear a strange, wild noise. She looked out of the window, but could see nothing except the darkness.

    "What's that noise?" she asked Mrs. Medlock. "It's - it's not the sea, is it?"

    "No, that's the moor (荒原). It's the sound the wind makes, blowing across the moor."

    "What is a moor?"

    "It's just miles and miles of wild land, with no trees or houses. Your uncle's house is right on the edge of the moor." Mary listened to the strange, frightening sound. "I don't like it," she thought.

    "I don't like it." She looked more disagreeable than ever.

(Be adapted from The Secret Garden)

    While you are sleeping at night, teenagers in the Netherlands (荷兰) might be having a hard time.

    Dutch (荷兰的) parents sometimes take their children out at night. They drop them off (让.....下车) in the (森林) and tell them to find their way back home with just their mobile phones.

    It's a special Dutch (传统习俗) called "dropping". It usually kids a few hours to find their way home. The goal is to build their independence (独立性). (尽管) the Dutch enjoy this tradition, other people think it's a bad idea. Some parents think it is irresponsible (不负责任的) parenting. "I don't think it's a nice thing to do to kids," said one parent from the US. "It's late and long, and kids might be (害怕的)."

    But supporters have their American parenting writer Lenore Skenazy (说), "When you let children out, all the good things happen - the self-confidence， (高兴), and self- sufficiency(自我满足) that come from letting our kids do some things by (他们自己)."

    Stijn Jongewaard, an 11-year-old Dutch boy, loves "dropping". When he finished his (第一) "dropping", he told The New York Times that in the future he would like his children to do it as well. "It reminds you, even in very hard times, to keep going. I have never had to do that before."

    What do you think?

    Writing for our school newspaper can be great fun. I joined Tang Ying's newspaper reporting team last December.

    She taught us (use) writing skills. It opened new door to the world of English. Tang, an interesting and wise teacher, (teach) English for 32 years. She cares about (we) and helps us solve our problems. One mistake we often made was that we would forget to put an "s" after verbs for the third person. Tang encouraged us (think) in another way and imagine that the verb is "naked (裸露的)"without the "s". Besides grammar, Tang also taught us that stories are only half done they don't have good content(内容). Many of our articles didn't have many details (细节) and weren't logical (合逻辑的). She told us that we should write everything (clear), as if our readers were (kid). She also said we should write about different ideas in different ways and not use the same words several times a row. How time (fly)! It was a very useful and unforgettable experience. I can't wait to do it again.

    Jogging is good for us and helps us live longer and healthier lives. It's easy to do and free. You do not have to spend money jogging. You can do it in a park or even in your home. But many people find it boring after jogging for a while. Then how can we keep jogging fun? Here are some ideas to make your jogging more interesting.

    First, you should choose to wear your favourite sports clothes and shoes when you jog. They make you more comfortable and more likely to run.

    Second, always jog outdoors. By changing your route (路线) and choose another street, you will always have something interesting to enjoy while you jog.

    Third, take along your MP3 player and listen to your favourite songs when you jog. The music can make you excited and run further without feeling bored.

    Finally, it's always more enjoyable with a friend. Make friends while jogging. Join a running club, find a new running partner, or invite an old friend to go jogging. It's better to find a friend who runs a little faster than you. Then you can try to catch up with him or her.
