Lots of kids hate school, a new study found. Usually this kind of feeling doesn't last long. But what happens if you feel this way too much? School is a fact of life and getting a good education can help you build the kind of future life you want. So let's talk about school and what to do when you don't like it.

“You know,Ann,” my friend Nick said, “Lisa and Anita were just talking about you.”  I immediately got 11.  “They said that you join the Students Union just because the teacher likes you, not because you are excellent.”
I 12 to keep myself from crying, getting down to my knees. After Nick told me everything my supposed best friends said about me, I felt I was 13 .
Lisa and Anita came in, acting as if(好像) 14  had happened.Lisa was still my deskmate and Anita was still my partner for our history project. I was 15 that they were able to pretend we had the perfect friendship. 16 they’d said such hurtful things.
I felt like I didn’t have a friend in the world, all because of rumor(谣言).
The tongue can be our worst 17 . Rumors do harm to friendship. They are like sharp knives, breaking one’s dignity(尊严) into pieces. When we say 18 things abut others, we’re hurting their hearts.
So how was I to act next? I thought of 19 them back. But instead, I told them directly they had hurt me. Lisa started 20 and Anita was speechless. I knew they were both sorry for what they had said. They said sorry to me, and I forgave them 21 I was still unhappy. Sure, things were a little embarrassing (尴尬的) at first, but soon enough everything was back to the way it had been before. I still 22  rumors from time to time. Talking about others is a part of our life, but the more I learn about the friendship, the more I realize the importance of tolerating others.

We were doing the best to control the fire of the burning garage. Outside, I heard the sounds of cats crying. I couldn’t stop- I would have to look for the cats after the fire was put out.
It took a long time to finally bring the big fire under control. No one inside was hurt. At that point I was free to find out where the cat noises were from. There was still a lot of smoke and heat coming from the building. I followed the meowing to the sidewalk in front of the garage. There, crying and huddled together, were five frightened kittens . They must have been inside the building, as their fur was badly hurt.
I wanted to find the mother cat. It was obviously that she had gone into the burning garage and carried out all her babies, one by one----unbelievable.
We finally found her. Her paws and face were blackened, and her fur was burned all over. You could even see her reddened skin under the burned fur. She could hardly move. I picked her up, and she relaxed in my arms as much as her pain would allow. I was determined to save this brave little cat and her family.
The veterinarian told me they would watch the kittens and their mother for the night, but they weren’t confident about the about the mother’s chances.
About a week later, I found out she was going to live. We named her Scarlet because of her reddened skin.
I was happy to see Scarlet get together with the kittens again. She touched each of them, nose to nose. She had risked her life five times-and it had paid off. All of her babies had survived.
As a firefighter, I see heroic acts every day. But what Scarlet showed me that day was the kind of bravery that can only come from a mother’s love.

One of sweetest memories as a child is of going down to the river and sitting comfortably on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to songs of birds. I would also watch the bamboo trees bend under the pressure from the wind and watch them return gracefully to their original state after the wind had died down.
When I think about the bamboo tree’s ability to bend and move back, the word “resilience” comes to my mind. When it is used for a person, this word means the ability to readily recover(恢复) from shock, sadness or any other suffering. Have you ever felt like you were going to snap? Have you ever felt like you were at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived to talk about it.
Life is a mixture(混合) of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point, bend, but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.
An amount of hope will take you through the unpleasant suffering. With hope for a better tomorrow or a better situation, things may not be as bad as they seem. The unpleasant suffering may be easier to deal with if the end result is worth having.
If things get tough and you are at your breaking point, show resilience. Like the bamboo trees, bend, but don’t break!
小题1:What does the word “snap” in the second paragraph most probably mean?
A.breakB.change
C.winD.Complain
小题2:What can help people get through sufferings according to the writer?

C.Experiencing more bad times.D.Hoping for a better tomorrow.

A.Memories of BambooB.Be Like Bamboo
