Compassion(同情)is a desire within us to help others.With efforts,we can translate compassion into actions.An experience last weekend showed me this is true.
I work part—time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly These old people are our main customers,and it’s easy to lose patience over their slowness.But last Sunday,one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson.This untidy marl walked up to my register(收款機)with a box of biscuits.He said he was out of cash,had just moved into his room,and had nothing in his cupboards.He asked if we could let him have the food on trust.He promised to repay me the next day.
I couldn’t help staring at him.I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before,and what he would be like if luck had gone his way.I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul,all alone in the world.I told him that I was sorry,and the store rules didn’t allow me to do so.I felt stupid and unkind saying this,but I valued my job .Just then,another man,standing behind the first,spoke up.if anything,he looked more pitiable,“Charge it to me,”was all he said.
What I had been feeling was pity.Pity is soft,safe and easy.Compassion,on the other hand,is caring in action.I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed,either.Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

My friend Karen and I were always together. Karen was only a few months older than I. I always thought she was so beautiful, with long hair and blue eyes. I loved Karen so much because she liked me for being the way I was. I could be myself and share my secrets with her and I never felt like I was being judged.
We had so much fun and were really quite silly. One time I asked my mom to make us the same dresses so we could pretend we were twins.
We continued as best friends throughout grade school. One day, Karen was going to another friend’s place and asked me to come along, but I couldn’t go because I had a babysitting job that afternoon. We walked together to the Becker’s home where I was to babysit and then she continued on her way without me. We had agreed that I would meet her at the corner when she returned and I finished my job.
At four o’clock I rushed to the corner so I wouldn’t be late for meeting Karen. Just as I arrived at the corner, I saw Karen crossing the street. In a second it happened. I saw Karen’s body fly up in the sky. A car had hit her!
Karen was on life support for a week before it was decided that they would allow her to go in peace. Karen’s parents wanted to donate her organs(器官)to the hospital, but there was nothing left healthy enough to be used because she was hit so hard.
I have never got so close to another person since Karen died. I do miss her! Do you cherish(珍惜)your friends? If you don’t, please do, as you may lose them one day.

“I had a test and didn’t want to do it, so I pretended to be ill”, says 13-year-old Mary. But Mary did not enjoy her day off. “It was boring. I wished I had gone to school.”
Mary’s story is not unusual in Britain. According to the latest government figures, pupil absences are rising, despite schools taking a hard line on truancy (逃學(xué)).
Dr Philip James from Cardiff University thinks she knows why: “As schools make more efforts to find and punish missing students, students find better ways to avoid being caught.”
For several years, James has researched teenager truancy and discovered that most truancy was “a response to factors within the school”. Students that skip school are not necessarily less advanced or less intelligent. They complained of teachers who failed to engage them, and of “boring” lessons. “Many of them really enjoy school and believe in education, but drop out when aspects of it are ineffective.” James says.
The views of students like Adam, who believes that skipping lessons has little impact on his schooling, are common. “I only take off for a lesson, or a couple of days. It doesn’t affect my education,” he told James.
James believes that schools need to address the question of why pupils want to leave in the first place. “Pupils need help from the start.” she says. “Schools need to look at the reasons for truancy rather than the number, so that instead of walking away from school, students have the skills and chances to talk through problems and make a change.”
1.What is one of the reasons that many students skip school according to James’ study?
A.They feel they have fallen behind in their studies. |
B.They have no interest in school education. |
C.They now have more interesting things to do. |
D.They find some lessons and teachers uninteresting. |
2.The underlined phrase “taking a hard line” (Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.experiencing a problem with |
B.having a strict attitude towards |
C.finding it difficult to deal with |
D.having little success with |
3.The writer used Adam’s comments (Paragraph 5) to show that ________.
A.school education needs improvement |
B.good students also need a break from school |
C.schools need to pay more attention to truancy |
D.many students believe occasional truancy isn’t serious |
4.What does Dr James suggest schools do about truancy?
A.Fire all their unqualified teachers. |
B.Improve communication with students. |
C.Develop better ways to discover truancy. |
D.Introduce more serious punishments. |

The next day as he 51 his schoolroom, he looked back at me. My baby looked so sure of himself. I smiled back at him and hoped that he didn’t see the 52 in my eyes.

I went to a birthday party and I remembered what you said. You told me not to drink at all, so I had a Sprite(雪碧) 36 . I felt proud of myself, that I didn’t choose to drink and drive 37 some friends said I should.
I knew I made a wise 38 . Your advice to me was right. As the party 39 ended and the kids drove out of sight, I got into my own 40 , sure to get home at once, never 41 what was coming — something I 42 least. Now I’m lying on the roadside, and I can hear the policeman say:“The kid that caused this accident was 43 .” His voice seems far away. My own blood (血) is all around me. I try hard not to 44 . I can hear someone say: ”This girl is going to die.”
I’m sure the guy had no idea while he was flying 45 . Because he chose to 46 and drive, now I will have to die. So why do people do it since they know that it ruins 47 ? But now the pain is cutting me 48 a hundred stabbing(刺痛的)knives. Tell my sister not to be 49 , tell Daddy to be brave, and if possibly I have to see 50 , put “Daddy’s Girl” on my grave(墓穴).
Someone should have 51 him that it’s wrong to drink and drive. Maybe if his mom and dad had done so, I wouldn’t be like this. My 52 is getting shorter. I’m getting really scared. These are my final 53 and I’m so 54 .
