If you do something wrong, will your parents punish you? Some students shared their experiences.

My mom loves her garden. Anytime I did anything to make her angry, I had to work in her garden. When I told her I failed my English exam, my punishment was to build her a pond (池塘). It took me a week of work to dig it out, shape it, fill it and then plant everything around it. Then she told me that she really hated the 30-year-old tree in the garden and if my grades didn’t improve I’d remove it.

—Luke

My mom made me write letters on what I did wrong from when I was little up into high school. I hated writing them. She kept all of them, so now they’re great for a laugh.

—Maria

Once I made my mom very angry. When I got home from school, my bedroom was empty. She took everything out. I had to do chores and get everything back bit by bit. I started with my quilt and clothes, so I could sleep and go to school the next day. It took me nearly two weeks to get everything back. After that, I tried very hard not to get on her bad side too much.

—Ken

I have an older brother. One day I did something wrong, so my mom took away my favorite soft toy and put my older brother in control of it for two weeks. I felt so sad.

—Vera

根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容判斷正(T)誤(F)。

1.When Luke failed his English exam, his mother made him work in the garden.

2.Maria kept all her letters to remind herself not to do anything wrong.

3.Ken got back the things of his bedroom by doing chores for about two weeks.

Oxfam Trailwalker has been one of Hong Kong's biggest money?raising events since 1981. It is organized by Oxfam Hong Kong to raise money for helping poor people. People over eighteen can group themselves into a team of four people and join this walk.

Oxfam Trailwalker is a hard hike because you have to finish walking 100 kilometers in 48 hours. It means you may have to walk two days and nights without sleeping. The trailwalkers have to walk through eight country parks and over twenty hills and mountains.

It is a good chance for people to learn team spirit. All the team members must walk together to finish the hike because only the team's finishing time will be recorded. It is necessary for them to support and help each other. You should plan what you are going to carry during the walk. You cannot carry everything with you, so it is useful to have supports from your teammates. Warm and dry clothes are also necessary. Each team must raise at least HK$6,000.
