　　I love it at night．It’s peaceful．And when it cools down I sometimes do some ironing．I don’t really care for it．I work full-time and I am too busy for most housework．I remember the old woman who taught me to iron．I was about 15 and I had to get a job taking care of a woman to make a living．She had been an able-bodied, healthy woman until the accident that caused her to be paralyzed．

　　The woman sat in an electric wheelchair all day．She could only move her head and arms．She would tell me how to do things．She would teach me in great detail on the correct ways to do things．Her home was perfect and beautiful．She would follow me around in her electric wheelchair to make sure I did everything exactly right．I’m sure she had been a perfect homemaker．She would have me fold(折叠)everything, including socks．I would complain silently and wish terrible things on her．She taught me the right way to make the bed．I know sometimes she’d get frustrated(沮丧)and impatient with me．I knew she wanted to do it herself．But she never shouted or scolded．She only insisted I do it right．I didn’t like it much, but I did it．

　　Today I can iron pretty well．I know where to start on a shirt and the right way to do the trousers．Now when I think about it, I don’t think she is an old lady．I think she might have been about my age now．Anyway, when I iron, I think of her and silently thank her for all the things I learned．

　　It's not easy to be an astronaut's son．Everybody expects you to be special or perfect．I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me．I mean he's so special and so good at everything he does．Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team．

　　Well, to be honest, I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special－like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star．I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father's Day writing competition for the whole schoo1．“I hope we have a winner right here in my class．”

　　When I got home, I started to think about what to write．My father is an astronaut．N0, I wouldn't start like that．That was the way others saw him．How did I see my father?Hmm．

　　I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream．I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car．Yes, these were the things I was going to write．To me, he wasn't just a world－famous astronaut．He was my dad．

　　My parents and l went to school Thursday night．There were so many people in the big hall!My dad looked at me, and I shrugged(耸肩)．

　　The third prize was announced and it was not me．I was relieved(释然)and disappointed at the same time．The second prize was announced．It was me．

　　I went up to the stage and read what I had written,“My father's son”．When I finished, the people stood up and cheered．I saw my father blowing his nose．Tears were running down my mother's face．Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder．“Son, this is the proudest moment of my life．”

　　It was the proudest moment of my life, too．Maybe I'll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my father's son．

　　Most supermarkets in China provided free plastic(塑料)bags．It was convenient(方便)for people to do shopping，but things changed．To protect the environment，supermarkets all over China stopped providing free plastic bags from June 1，2008．If you don’t want to pay money to buy them，you’ll have to bring your own shopping bags．

　　A boy student，Wang Lin made his bag with several old newspapers．We asked him whether the bag was strong enough．Wang Lin said it was．“No problem．I took six bottles of water in the bag from the shop to my home yesterday evening，”he said，“I think it’s strong enough to hold even ten bottles of water．”

　　Fang Yuanyuan，a girl student，had a more traditional way to make her bag－a bamboo basket．“It was a hard job．”she said，“With my grandfather’s help，I spent a whole afternoon making it．”

A student would be lucky enough if he or she could receive a good mark(分数) from him. Now a student came into the exam room and sat before the committee. This student was a little nervous as he knew it would not be so easy for him to pass the exam.

　　The student was asked to describe an illness. His answer was OK. Then Mr Smith asked about the cure(疗法) for the illness, and the student, too, gave a quick answer. “Good,” said Mr Smith, “and how much will you give the patient(病人)?” “A full spoon,” answered the student.

　　“Now you may go out and wait for what you can get,” said Mr Smith. At the same time the committee discussed the answers the student had given. Suddenly the student realized that there was something wrong with his last answer. “A full spoon is too much,” he thought to himself. Very worriedly he opened the door of the room arid cried, “Mr Smith, I've made a mistake. A full spoon is too much for the patient.
