After finals，I was ready to move out．It wasn't too hard for me，but for a lot of my friends，it was a big event．After packing my suitcase and helping my friends move，it was time to say goodbye．I had reached the end of my first year in the university!
A friend from Chinese Taipei who is studying in Washington D．C．came to visit，so my brother and I took him sightseeing．But these were not this month's highlights．The high point was coming back home，a moment I'd been expecting since the day I left．
I arrived home early on the morning of May 15th．When I saw my parents，I gave them a big hug and kiss．Being at home with my parents，standing on this land，and feeling the humid and hot air，I knew I was home．The first thing I did was to go to Mei Mei for a big breakfast．It was so much better than the school cafeteria（自助餐厅）! Mei& Mei was just a start．There are so many foods I have to eat and so many friends I want to see．
The hot air is burning my face and the sweat（汗） is evaporating from my skin．I love this feeling．This is where I belong．

shaking hands.
I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and
dad, who would say, "Good job!" even if I messed up the entire piece.
What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?
As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting
for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.
Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys,
which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat
and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的)
keys.
As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment.
But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many
times that I could play it backwards if requested.
Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move
my fingers automatically (自动地).
My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.
There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward
and focused carefully on the music.
When I came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DON'T MAKE A MISTAKE
WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!
Needless to say, I obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my "page-turning" feat (技
艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.
After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had
mastered the impossible.
B. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stage
C. she hadn't mastered the entire piece
D. she had never performed in public before
B. forget about
C. stop halfway
D. do well in
B. felt better at the beginning of the performance
C. paid all attention to nothing but her performance
D. lost her concentration (注意力) sometimes during the performance
B. She thought it was very difficult but successful.
C. She thought she had never made a mistake during the performance.
D. She thought she played through the piece carefully but light-heartedly.

Alexis Rocha is a 13-year-old boy from California, US. He weighs 147 pounds (67 kg). But six months ago, he weighed more than 202 pounds (91 kg). How did he lose all that weight in only half a year?
“One day, I was surprised to find that I weighed about 200 pounds,” Rocha says. “I thought I had to do something.”
Rocha is from a boxing (拳击) family—his father and two older brothers are professional boxers. So he decided to start boxing. He began with simple exercises, like sit-ups and push-ups (俯卧撑). Then Rocha started jogging(慢跑). “No kid likes running,” he says. “I don’t want to do it, either, but I have no choice but to keep on.”
Months later, Rocha joined a boxing club in his city. He is always the first kid at the club to begin exercising, and the last to leave with sweat (汗水) on his face. Every day he boxes for about three hours.
“Rocha works very hard,” says his coach, Hector Lopez. “It’s surprising to see him lose the pounds so quickly. I’ve never seen anything like this in my 20 years of coaching.”
Rocha is very happy with his weight now. There is a family photo in his room from 18 months ago. “Each time I look at the photo, I laugh at myself. I was so big back then,” Rocha says. “I look 100 times thinner and 1,000 times stronger now.”
