Jia Meng used to keep a diary (日記) in Chinese. But one year ago, the 14-year-old girl from Hei Longjiang began to write her diary in English, because Jia found her mother was reading her diary secretly. She changed the language because her mother can’t read English. “It’s like killing two birds with one stone.” said Jia, “My privacy (隱私) became safe and my English improves a lot.”

Jia’s mother is not the only mom who reads her child’s diary. Recently, Renmin University of China did a national survey among over 2, 3000 parents. The reports say that 40% of parents read their children’s secrets. That’s why, like Jia, many teenagers try to find ways to protect their privacy.

Wu Lei, 15, of Shanxi, keeps a diary, too. But he doesn’t write it on paper. He writes on the Internet which he thinks is perfectly safe because his parents “know nothing about the Internet.”

Lu Huan, 13, of Guangdong, said her parents always secretly listened to the talk between her friends and her on the telephone in their room. To solve this problem, Lu asked her parents to buy her a mobile phone.

“Parents want to know what is going on in their children’s lives,” said Shao Xiazhen, a teenage expert in Beijing. “ But sometimes they go about it the wrong way.” Shao gave teenagers the idea that instead of hiding their secrets, talking to parents is a better way. “If your parents know that you are safe, they’ll let you keep your secrets.”

Have you ever drunk the water directly（直接地） from a river? I’m sure youre a1. is ‘Yes’.

Perhaps you may have t2. the water from a well (井), or from a tap（水龍頭） before. H3., as I know, most of you only drink hot water or the bottled(罐裝的) water from a shop now. But things were quite d4.twenty years ago. At that time, all the small rivers a5. us were very clear and the water was very c6.. If you were t7., you could just bend down by the riverside and drink some water with your h8.. It was cool and sweet. How p9. it was! But all this was in the past. Things have changed a lot. Some river water is not even clean e10. for us to wash our hands. What a pity!

Many animals have tails. They use their tails to do many different things.

Some animals use their tails as flywatters(蒼蠅拍）. Have you ever seen a cow shake its tail back and forth? It’s driving away the flies. Horses also use their tails in the same way.

Some animals hang by their tails. Monkeys often do this. Then they can use all four of their paws for other things, such as eating. Monkeys use their tails as a "hanger" ,which can help them hang in the trees and climb trees. Animals that live in the water use their tails to help them swim. A fish uses its tail from side to side. A kangaroo has a large, useful tail. It’s like a chair. The kangaroo stands on its tail to rest. It helps the kangaroo stand well. The tail is also good for landing. This is important because an adult kangaroo can jump as far as 15 feet at a time. A fox has a big tail. This is a good tail to have cold nights. The fox can put its tail over its nose and paws while it sleeps. The tail can keep the fox warm.

Some animals don’t keep their tails with them at all times. If their enemy( 敵人） catches them,

their tails will break off. Don’t worry. They will soon grow a new tail. How amazing it is!

My grandfather did not live with us because he was a very busy man,helping the poor in a small town. But as the holidays drew near,he would take the train to visit his grandchildren for a few days during the winter vacation. My favorite part of the holiday was the trip my grandfather and I would make together every year on December 24. I love him for that.

Grandfather was the first one to own a radio in his town, a large box made of wood. He kept it in the Outer House, where he saw his patients and chatted with friends. My grandfather’s radio became the only way to learn the news of the Second World War.

He was also the first one to send a daughter(my mother)to college, an act that made the whole village surprised. For this reason, he was the person I could ask about anything. He knew

everything-----from the capital of France to how fish were able to breathe(呼吸）under the water.

This December 24, my grandfather andI walked together to Firpo’s. We discussed what to buy at Firpo’s as we walked. We ended up buying the fruitcake,the same as last year. Grandfather got me a cookie to eat on the way back. I asked grandfather a question that I 'd been thinking over for some time now. Why was Christmas called the Big day?

Grandfather was silent for a whole minute and when he finally spoke,his voice was slow. Christmas----the birthday of a very special soul, it was a day to grow big, he said.

“And how do you grow big in your heart, Grandfather?” I asked him.

He answered slowly and softly, as though I were the same age as he,”By doing something you think will make them happy. Something you don’t have to do, by putting their needs before yours at least once a day. It’s a good start for trying to live a big life.

1.When did grandfather go to visit his grandchildren?

A. The whole family left the town.

B. The writer’s mother was sent to a college.

C. Grandfather helped the poor in the town.

D. Grandfather and the writer had a trip around.

4.What does the underlined words”drew” mean?
