A friend of mine named Paul received(收到) an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present.On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office,a street urchin(頑童) was walking around the shining car.“Is this your car,Paul?”he asked. Paul answered,“Yes,my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised(驚奇).“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you anything?Boy,I wish…”He hesitated(猶豫).
Of course, Paul knew what he was going to wish for(希望).He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish,”the boy went on,“that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?”
“Oh yes,I’d love that.”
After a short ride,the boy turned and with his eyes shining,said,“Paul,would you mind (介意)driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little.He thought he knew what the boy wanted.He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are? the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(殘疾的) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent(美分). And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable(難忘的) holiday ride.

I was in my third year of teaching writing at Ralph High School in New York, when one of my students, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence from class the day before:
"Dear Mr. McCort, Mikey's grandmother, who is eighty years of age, fell down the stairs from too much coffee and I kept Mikey at home to take care of her and his baby sister so I could go to my job. Please excuse Mikey and he'll do his best in the future. P.S. His grandmother is OK."
I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk. l said nothing. Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students. The writers of those notes didn't realize that honest excuse notes were usually boring: "Peter was late because the alarm clock didn't go off."
The students always said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject, but when they produced excuse notes, they were excellent. So I decided to give the first class to study the art of the excuse note.
“Today I'd like you to write 'An Excuse Note from Adam to God' or 'An Excuse Note from Eve to God'. "Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. They had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.[來源:學|科|網(wǎng)Z

English writer teaches us a lot about life
Charles Dickens is a great British writer in the 19th century. Most of his books are still popular even today.
In 1812, Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth, England. Dickens didn't like playing with other boys when he was a little child, but he loved reading books. Childhood was not easy for Dickens. He began to work at a factory at the age of 12. Every day, he spent 10 hours washing bottles and cleaning shoes.
When Dickens was 16, he became a reporter for a newspaper. During that time, Dickens wrote his first book, The Pickwick Papers. The book came out in 1836-37 and made Dickens rich and famous. His hard times were at an end.
Most of Dickens' books are about the difficulties of living in Victorian England. The characters(人物)in his books are often children. They usually live a hard life in a boarding(寄宿)school, or have to work in a factory at a young age.
However, Dickens' works are all about hope. He wrote sad and dark stories, but they are always filled with humor(幽默). And most of his stories have happy endings, as with A Christmas Carol. It is about a selfish man. He finds love and friendship after looking back on his life one Christmas Eve.

2.Was life difficult for Dickens when he was a child?
3.What made Dickens rich and famous?
4.What do the children in his books usually do?
