"Look at these erasers, Shirley, he continued. "Do you know why they are become smaller and smaller. That's what you must learn---everybody makes mistakes, but they can be valuable experience and teach you something important.” Then he left one eraser on Shirley's desk.

Yesterday Dr Hill put braces (牙箍) on my teeth. When she finished doing it, she walked me out to the front desk. She told Grandma I would have to come back in two weeks to have my braces checked. “Sounds like she put a washing machine in your mouth, doesn't it, Amy?” joked Grandma. Then Dr Hill gave me an appointment (预约) for 2:30 pm on 28th October. Oh, well, I guess getting out of school early to see Dr Hill will be one good thing about having braces.

Other things aren't so good. When I woke up this morning, my mouth really hurt. I couldn't eat any bread or meat. Finally Mum mashed (捣烂) a banana and mixed it with some milk and honey, which tasted good.

At school, my friends tried to be nice about my braces. Benny said he could hardly notice them unless I smiled. (Note to myself: Try not to smile too much.) Angel said they made me look more grown-up. And Keith thanked me for joining him. He said my braces looked nicer than his.

Of course, Charlie had mean things to say. First he called me Brace Face, and then he called me Metal Mouth. I ignored (不理睬) him, but he kept laughing and pointing. He didn't stop until Mrs Fremont gave him one of her looks. Right now, Dr Hill's not sure how long I'll have to wear the braces. But it may be at least nine months. That seems like a long, long time.

Choose your topic.【1】 Some people can start writing poems without really deciding what to write about; when their pen or pencil hits the paper, the words just flow (畅流). Most people, on the other hand, need a topic and as a beginner, this is the best way to start. It’s easier to write a good poem about something you know well or you have experienced.

Free write for five minutes about your topic. Then go back and read it. Are any words or expressions especially good? 【2】 For example, if you are describing something (a bird), write down descriptive words about it (looks, colors), and the kind of story you would like to tell about (the bird fell out of a tree). If you are writing about an event in your life, write down your feelings and thoughts of that event.

Write your poem. Remember, a poem doesn’t have to rhyme(押韵).【3】 But it should show your feelings of the topic. And it should sound nice to you.

Have a friend read your poem aloud to you.

【4】 If not, go back and rewrite the parts you don’t like.

【5】 Read it to others. Read it aloud to yourself. Put it somewhere if you want.

A. Do you like the way it sounds?

B. Mark(作记号) them and use them in your poem.

C. Enjoy your poem.

D. What would you like your poem to be about?

E. It doesn’t have to use sentences, either.

F. It’s very easy to write a poem.

G. Read your poems loudly when you are free.
