     One day, when we had been riding in the burning sun for five hours, we came to a narrow, shaky bridge
where a railway crossed a stagnant (发臭的) pond. For 30 feet there was nothing but the widely-spaced
wooden sleepers under our wheels, and nothing to stop us from falling into the steaming bot below if we
overbalanced. Right under the bridge lay the body of a dead cow. I watched Mat as hc approached the bridge
and rode straight over, without even slowing down. I stopped.
     "What's up?" he shouted, from the other side.
     "I'm not riding over that thing. If I fail, I'll be there with that cow!"
     "There's nothing to it. I just did it, didn't I?"
     "You're stronger and taller. My feet can't touch the ground. You do it for me!"
     Mat said strength didn't come into it and rode off,leaving me staring down into the sickly brown soup. He
would be waiting for me around the next corner, but I knew he would oive me at least ar hour before coming
to help. The sun burned my face; sweat ran off my forehead into my eyes and stuck my shirt to my body;
mosquitoes flew into my mouth when I breathed. To stand still in this place was to kill myself; anyway, to sit
around waiting for Mat to help was more than my feminist pride could take. I rode back along the track a f'ew
hundred yards to get a good run-up (助跑) and over I went. Mat was right: all the obstacles were in my mind.

     Renaissance Reading:
The Accelerated Reader (AR) Program is a computerized reading enrichment program that combines
great children's literature with computer skills. As an individualized reading program, it is designed to
motivate students to read more and to read good literature. Students of different abilities can use this
program. It is not a competitive program but one that improves any student's reading ability.
     Here is how it works. Students select books in their reading range from our Accelerated Reader
Selection and read it at their own pace. Once the student has completed the book, he/she is ready
to take an AR quiz. Each quiz consists of 5, 10, or 20 multiple choice comprehensive questions
about the book.
     After taking the quiz, the computer shows the student how many questions he/she answered
correctly, shows the correct answers for missed questions, and praises the students' efforts with an
onscreen personalized message. Passing the quiz assures the teacher and the parent that the child
actually read and understood the book.  Each student tests independently-reading the quiz questions
himself/herself.
     The computer keeps track of reading points, books, and average test scores, as well as other data.
A student may test on a book only once and should, therefore, have thoroughly read and understood
the contents before taking the quiz. Each student is responsible for reading the screen to be sure the
quiz, by title and author, is the correct one he/she wishes to take.
     Students are recognized for their accomplishments with praise from the teachers and special
recognition at the classroom level when individual and/or classroom goals are met.
