I was walking around in a store. I saw a cashier (收銀員) hand a little boy his money back, saying, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have enough money to buy this doll.” I walked towards him and asked him who the doll was for.

“It’s the doll that my sister wanted most for Christmas,” he said. I told him that maybe Santa Claus will bring it to her and that he shouldn’t worry. He sadly replied, “No, Santa Claus can’t bring it to her. I have to give the doll to my mom so that she can give it to my sister when she joins her.”

His eyes were so sad while saying this. “My sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that

Mom is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.”

My heart nearly stopped. I quickly reached for my wallet and suggested that we count the money again. “Okay,” he said. “I hope that I have enough.” I added some of my money to his without letting him see and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money left. “Thank you, God, for giving me enough money!” the little boy said.

I left the store, feeling as if my life had been changed forever.

I used to be an active girl. But two years ago, an English speaking competition held in my school changed me a lot.

I stood on the stage(講臺) for the first time. I was so nervous that my brain(大腦) suddenly became empty. Not long after I began my speech, the hall turned noisy. It seemed that they were laughing at me. I knew I failed.

From then on, I became quiet and always stayed alone. I didn’t want to express my ideas in public, even in class. Every time I wanted to say something, I thought people would laugh at me. My friends couldn’t understand me, and they left me, one by one.

One day, my science teacher asked us why trees in forests were much taller than those in the wild. “Ha, what a silly question!” I thought.

“There’s not enough space in the woods for trees to expand their branches. Of course they have to grow taller than others. The trees in the wild needn’t do that since there’s enough space. ” I said in a low voice.

To my surprise, the teacher said, “Yes, you’re right. It is a competition. ” My face turned red right now. I hadn’t spoken for a long time, especially in public.

Then the teacher explained how trees in forests had to grow taller to receive more sunlight. If not, they would die. This also happened in our society.

What’s more, the tree that doesn’t live in a crowd is just like a person who has no friends in life.

I raised my head slowly and found the teacher was looking at me. His eyes were as warm as sunshine. I realized that I must stand up and face the truth.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷正(T)誤(F)。

1.We can know there was an English speaking competition two years ago from the first paragraph.

2.The hall turned noisy because the weather was too hot.

3.After the competition, the writer lost her confidence.

4.The science teacher’s question was difficult.

5.From the story, we can guess the writer is likely to stand up from her seat after the science class.

True or False:

Believe it or not

The first picture is of Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865). He became the 16th president of the United States in 1861, just 14 years after he was first elected to the House of Representatives.

On Friday, April 14, 1865, he and his wife planned to go to see a play at Ford's Theater. His secretary, named Kennedy, advised him not to go, but he went anyway and was shot in the head as he watched the play. He died the next day, and Vice-president Andrew Johnson (1808-1875) became President.

The man who shot Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth, shot him in a theatre. He escaped to a warehouse, but was shot, or killed himself, before being captured.

The second picture on the right is of John F. Kennedy (1917-1963). He became the 35th president of the United States in 1961, just 14 years after he was elected to the House of Representatives.

In November 1963, he and his wife planned to go to Dallas. His secretary, named Lincoln, advised him not to go, but he went anyway, and was shot in the head on Friday, November 22, 1963, as he drove through Dallas in a Ford Lincoln Continental. He died almost immediately, and Vice-president Lyndon Johnson (1908-1973) became President.
