Some birthday customs are quite similar in many parts of the world—- birthday candles(蜡烛), birthday games, and birthday cakes. But some customs are more specific to certain countries. Here are some children talking about their customs.
Linda: I am fourteen. I come from Aruba阿鲁巴岛(拉丁美洲)(荷属安的列斯群岛中的大岛). In our country, Children take something special to school for their classmates and all teachers. Each teacher gives the birthday child a small gift like a pencil, an eraser or a postcard. The birthday child is also allowed to wear special clothes instead of the school uniform.
Lucy: I am one year older than Linda. Denmark(丹麦) is my country. A flag is flown outside a window to show that someone who lives in that house is having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child's bed while they are sleeping so they will see them at once when they wake up.
Tom: I am as old as Linda. I am from Brazil. The birthday child receives a pull on the earlobe(耳垂) for each year in my country. The birthday person also gives the first slice of cake to his/her most special friend or relative, usually mom or dad.

But Ward had high hopes for young women's futures. He thought women should have more influence in society, as well as the ability to realize their dreams.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Our newest school building is modern-looking. It opened with 446 students on Sept 18, 1969.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}Opposite the school, there is part of the wall of a great Roman fort(罗马堡垒) built in 120.
Every school has its own history. I think we should all celebrate people like William Ward who believe in giving the best education to young people.
