On the terrible day, father took me to school. When he stopped in front of the school, I didn’t want to get out of the car. I looked at the students outside the building and suddenly felt sick. I slowly opened the car door and slowly got out. The body brace(支架) I wore made it hard for me to move and made me feel ugly. How I wished I were still in my school with all my friends. I didn’t know anyone here. I could feel that everyone was looking at me. I was sure that I would be the ugliest and strangest person they had ever seen. Tears fell on my new dress.

       I struggled(奮力) to get through that day, and all the day for the following three days. I feel ugly for most of the time. I could hardly wait to take off the brace.

       That day finally arrived on a rainy Thursday in Spring. I was so surprised and excited when the doctor said that I could take off the brace. From that day on, I began to love rain. I was free at last.

       I danced up the stairs to the school building the next morning. I wanted everyone to see me, but to my surprise, no one said a word about my brace for the whole day, even Danielle, my best friend. I couldn’t wait to ask her, “Danielle, don’t you notice anything different about me? It’s the brace. The brace is gone.”

       Danielle just looked at me and said, “ I know the brace is gone, but I don’t think it’ll make much difference. With or without it, you are still my friend.”

     The computer makes doing schoolwork easier tor me than it was tor my mom and dad. For example,
when writing book reports and stories,I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after
my teacher edits my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing.
And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.
     For English class, we're reading The Outsiders, by S. E. Hinton. As a pre-reading assignment (作業(yè)), my
teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Intemet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and
finally found an article on Time. com.
     For a geography assignment on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I
needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different,what states it runs through,
and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its
economy (經(jīng)濟). For example,the river's trade paths,the number of fish caught in it,and the tourists it attracts
directly influence Southemers' jobs and incomes (收入).
     I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my
parents work,getting to the library isn't always easy. For a big assignment or research project, I used to stay
at the library to read,or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information
in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias (百科全書) also
save time.
      Sometimes, I think the computer spoils young people because it's so easy-at least physically. But
computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer
using a computer. Easy, fun, and fast.
1. Does the computer make doing schoolwork harder for the writer?
    ______________________________________________________
2. What does the writer use when he wr tes book reports and stories? 
    ______________________________________________________
3. How does the wr ter complete a big assignment or research project? 
     ______________________________________________________
4. What does the underlined word "spoils" mean in English? 
    ______________________________________________________
5. What's the ran idea of this passage? 
    ______________________________________________________
