One afternoon little David was playing with his friends in the street when he was hit by a motorcycle．He fell and broke his aim．And he was immediately taken to a hospital．There a doctor operated on his arm and put it in a cast（石膏）．David couldn't move it at all．

At the end of a month David went back to the hospital．The doctor cut the cast and took David's arm out of the cast．

“Can you move your arm，David?” he asked．

“In a few days it will be as good as new，” the doctor said．“Just exercise it a little．”

“Will I be able to play the violin?” David asked．

Students are leaving the junior high school．What are they taking with them? A lot of things for sure，but the most important thing is friends．

We asked some teachers to give us one last lesson．The lesson is proverbs（谚语、格言）about friends．Proverbs teach people about life．Older people often teach proverbs to younger people．Every culture has proverbs．They are short and easy to remember．

Mrs. Minnelli says，“It is important to remember this Sicilian proverb，‘Only your real friends will tell you when your face is dirty．’It means that only good friends tell you when you are making a mistake．”

Mr. Schmidt says，“I have a favorite proverb about friends，‘Friendship is a plant we must water．’It is German．It means that we need to take care of friends like we take care of a garden．”

Mr. Tulga says，“My grandfather in Turkey told me，‘Nobody is so rich that he can throw away a friend．’ It means that everyone needs friends．Be good to them．”

The good news is：there is no test for this lesson．The bad news is：we will miss you．

Important tips for better flash（闪光灯、闪光）photos

Don't stand too far back from your subject．The flash on most cameras will not cover any subject well over three meters away．Even in non-flash photos many photographers stand too far away from their subjects．As a result，the subjects are small with great areas of unimportant background．

Watch the background carefully and be sure there are no mirrors or shiny things to reflect（反射）the flash back to the camera lens（透镜）．

When taking pictures of people，ask them not to look into the lens but at a point over your shoulder，because it is very possible that the flash will reflect from their eyes and there will be red eyes in the photo．

Try to give the subjects an interesting background．If there is nothing for two meters behind the subject，the background will come out black or very dark．Of course，you don't want an untidy background，because it will take people's attention away from your subject．

If taking a picture of a baby，be sure the room is as light as possible so that the flash does not hurt his／her eyes．

1．To avoid red eyes in the photo，the best place people should look at is               ．

A．the sun in the sky

B．the mirror behind the photographer

C．the lens of the camera

D．a point over the photographer’s shoulder

2．Which of the following is the right way to take a flash picture of a baby in a room?

A．Making the room as light as possible．

B．Having the baby sit in front of a mirror．

C．Helping the baby look at the camera lens．

D．Keeping the baby five meters away from the camera．

3．When taking flash pictures，we should be sure that              ．

A．there is nothing shiny in the background

B．there are interesting things in front of the subjects

C．there are as many beautiful things as possible in the background

D．there are great areas of black or dark background
