Last month I went to Kate’s school in the UK.It was really different from my school in China.

    Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie.

    Some of Kate’s lessons were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were quite some old words like “thou” and “thee” to mean“you ”. In history we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history-and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names!

Classes were also a lot more relaxed than in China . Teachers were called “sir ” or “miss”,everyone shouted answers and raised their hands in classes. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class.

    At break we bought potato chips and cookies in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China at 1 o’clock.We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding.

    It was good that I’d had an excellent lunch, because at Kate’s school Monday afternoons are taken up with sports.

    I played my first game of netball— a bit like basketball, but with some differences. Luckily I’d had a quick look in the rule book before I tried to join in the game.

Dear friends,

    Do you remember your first day at a new school or in a new area? How about the  31   when your family    32    to a new state? Ugh! What about the feelings of being a stranger?

    Then, with time, you find someone who likes  33  you like.  Friends are great gifts in life. I have good friends too,  but not because they are completely(完全的)   34  .Sometimes they talk too much; sometimes they need me a lot. I know I ask too much of them. I hope my friends, like my father,   35   about me a lot.

    I once told my friends to give me all their love and be generous and gentle. I told my friends, in other words, to love me    36   I loved them.

    They didn't   37  me at first, but then they became kinder. My love for them slowly made them learn to  38   friends. They learned to love others and   39   the idea that LOVE is part of life.

    If we listen to and try to understand each other, love    40   .We should work on it, even if it's hard at first. A true friend loves US at all times.

Your friend,

Jesus

    Internet addiction(上癮) is （34）     in China now. A recent research （35）  that 42% Of Chinese young people get quite interested in the web, while only 18% of Americans feel in the same  (36)   .

As we all know, the Internet has become part of teenagers(青少年)        . A new reporter on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of them used the Internet very        .

     Most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, but some are not using it in a        way .Many are playing online games too much.       even visit websites (網(wǎng)站)they should not look at. A teacher from Yucai Middle School says that bad things can happen if young people       too much time on the Internet. She had a student who used to be (曾經(jīng))good at school.      then he started visiting unhealthy websites. He went mad（變得瘋狂）,cheated（欺騙）a girl and was taken away by the police.

     In order to help young people use the Internet       a good way, a textbook on good Internet behavior(行為) has started to be used in some middle schools this term. The book uses real examples to       students about good ways of using the Internet. The book gives useful advice such as to read news or to find helpful      to study. Teachers and parents all think the book is very good.

     The book will be a guide (向導) for teens to use the Internet. We believe it will keep students away from bad websites, and teach students       to be a good person in the online world.
