The day came when the father was offered a good job. It paid quite well.
However, the family still did not get to see the father for most of the week. He went on working hard, hoping to get the position(職位) of manager.
The father’s hard work paid off and he was promoted(提升). Excitedly, he decided to hire a maid(女仆) so his wife did not have to do the housework any more.

Paul and I live in the same building. His room is on the sixth floor but mine is on the fifth. He’s very careless and sometimes he gets into trouble.
Last Friday afternoon the young man and his friends went to spend the weekend on a wild island. They could swim, fish, play the guitar and sleep in the quiet place at night. They enjoyed themselves there and could do anything they wanted. On the third morning they decided to get back to the land. But their boat hit a rock and soon went down.

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 (日本折紙). We made paper planes, birds and hats together.
The table tennis tournament(錦標賽) 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 (帳篷) 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.
小題1:What does the writer enjoy doing at the club?
A.Learning Japanese.B.Talking to older students.

小題2:What websites did the writer learn about?

小題3: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.
小題4: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.
小題5: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.
