The Reasons of Learning English
Today lots of people in China can speak English and more and more people are learning this language. Then what do they learn English for? We have done a survey and here are some people's reasons:
Alice White: I like traveling by myself very much. I've been to many places in China, and I plan to travel to some foreign countries. English is the most widely used language in the world, so learning English will do great help to my trips.
Mark Smith: I'm actually not so interested in English. I like Chinese much better. However, I have to learn English. We have to take English exams and the score(分数) of English takes a large part in the total score. Luckily, I'm not doing too badly in it, or I'll have to struggle(奋斗) with it.
Ben Green: It is necessary to learn English. As you know, the competition in the job market is very fierce(激烈的). If I have a good knowledge of English, I will have a chance of getting a good job.
Kate Lu: It's interesting, isn't it? I can get information that others can't get. I can talk and write letters to interesting people that others can't communicate with. And I can always make people surprised by speaking good English.

It tests what people will do when they see someone is in trouble so as to remind us to stand up for the people in need Here is last week's program. In a cake shop, two actors acted as a blind woman named Pamela and a man clerk who looked down upon the blind woman. Hidden cameras were recording what was happening. The blind woman came into the shop and bought a box of twelve cakes. The clerk treated the woman badly at first. Then he cheated(欺骗) her when he gave her the change. He only gave her 6 dollars instead of 34 dollars. Would someone be brave enough to stand up for the blind woman? Yes!

Rishi was a 10-year-old boy. Just like any other boy of his age, he hardly did the housework his parents told him to do, and usually he would completely ignore(忽视) them.
It was a 5-day holiday. He spent a good time with his mother. She took him for outings. They went to the beach and parks and had delicious meals. She cooked his favourite foods and played with him. Three days was left and Rishi's mother wanted him to clean the house with her. To her surprise, he agreed and did everything well.
After Rishi finished the work his mother asked him to do, he gave her a piece of paper written by him. She was greatly surprised to see what he wrote.
For cutting grass in the garden $ 6 For helping you in the kitchen $ 4 For buying milk and fruit for you $ 1 Total you owe: $ 11 |
She didn't say a word and wrote on a piece of paper and gave it to her son. She wrote:
For carrying you nine months $ 0 For sleepless nights taking care of you for several months $ 0 For thinking about your presents and future day and night $ 0 You owe: $0 |
The boy was in tears and rushed to his mum and gave her a big hug. He told his mother, "Mum, I love you. I'm sorry for everything." Rishi's mother kissed him on his forehead.
