Susan had long blonde hair and big blue eyes. So did most of the other1in her school class, which troubled her a lot. "I look like everyone else! I'm not special! I'm boring!" Susan2to her mother.

    She decided to try to make herself look3. She painted big pink spots on her neck and when she didn't get attention, she stuck a long plastic nose on top of her real nose. Nobody noticed that4. She took ink and poured it all over her5. She wore clown (小丑) clothes to school and stuck leaves in her ears.6no matter what she did, she still didn't get any7and nobody thought she was special.

    One morning her8went to wake her up and told her to get ready for school. She made Susan9the ink out of her hair and clean her neck. "I'm not going to school10! I'm boring!" She buried (埋藏) her head11the quilt and cried.

    "Susan," her mother said, "you are different. You are unique (独一无二的) and special.12in the world looks just like you. Some people have blonde hair like you and some have blue eyes like you, but none of them has your smile or the twinkle in your eyes or your pink face. Nobody laughs like you either. Now13and get ready for school."

Susan went to school that day and looked at all the other kids in her class. "Mum was14. Nobody looks just like me," Susan smiled. "I am special. I am unique and I am not15."

Tips:Learn from the passage in Exercise V. Remember to talk about your feelings.

On January 8^th, 2018, third-grade student Wang Fuman's hair turned white in the temperature of -9℃ as he walked for over an hour, traveling 4.5 kilometers, to Zhuan Shan Bao Primary School in Xinjie County, southwest China's Yunnan Province.

"'Ice boy' Wang's dream of traveling over 2,000 kilometers from his homework in Yunnan Province to visit the capital Beijing finally came true on January 19^th after his frozen hair picture caught public attention, "The Beijing News reported. 

Wang with his father and sister traveled from Yunnan's Ludian County, arrived in Beijing on January 19^th, 2018. Over the next three days, they visited Beijing's the Palace Museum and the People's Public Security University of China so that he can learn something about how to become a good police officer.

That evening, Wang recalled the many exciting "firsts" he had experienced since he set foot in the capital, including the first time he had traveled so far, his first flight, his first time eating the Beijing duck, the first time he saw tall buildings and cars.

Wang said that Beijing was warmer than his hometown and he wanted to see how students go to school in Beijing to find out if they need to walk a long way like he does.

Tea is enjoyed differently around the world, from how it's made and drunk to where it's enjoyed. According to the ways of making tea, tea is divided into white tea, black tea, green tea, etc. In Tibet, people often boil tea with salt and butter. Tea is drunk at home or in public places like tea houses.

Tea is a part of culture and connects to history, health, education, and communication. It's often included in social activities, like the British tradition of afternoon tea. Families or friends can communicate with each other while having afternoon tea.

Chinese people also use tea to make tasty dishes. Originally used as a medicine in ancient times, it is now not just a kind of drink, but also great seasonings（调味品）. Some delicious dishes made with tea are tea eggs and Dragon Well Tea Shrimp（虾）.

Before drinking tea, remember these tips:

• Drink tea while it's hot.

• The best time to drink is in between meals. It is bad for your stomach if you drink tea just before meals, during meals or soon after meals.

• Don't drink too much strong tea.

 Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone(克隆). So do I. My son Jody has  1 school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports weren't written until the last minute.

I' ve been a  2 all my adult life. My daughter is a university student who is  3 in learning language. Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo-tech" student(技校学生). They' re called"motorheads" by the rest of the students.

I was  4 when an assistant in my office first called him" motorhead". "Hey, he' s a good kid," I wanted to say. "And smart, really."

I learned later that motorheads are, indeed,5 . They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they don't often make school honor rolls(光荣榜).

 But being the 6 of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who work in clean shirts in offices don't have the  7 that motorheads have. I began to learn this when one day my car 8 . The cost to repair it was about $800. "Hey,I can fix it," said Jody. I  9 it, but let him go ahead. To be honest, I think I had nothing to  10 .

My son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got  11 from a junkyard(旧车场), and ability from vo-tech classes. The cost was $25 instead of $800.

 Since that  12 repair job, a broken air-conditioner, a non-functioning washer and a fridge have been fixed. Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repair to him.

 These kids are happiest when doing  13 . They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright14 their hands and clothes are dirty.

I have learned a lot from my motorhead: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics. My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made15 . I don't want him to be my clone anymore!
