16．Sure，it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant．
And yes，it's good to get along with your teacher because，in general，it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life．
"But really，there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher．When you do，learning bursts right open，"says Evelyn Vuko，a longtime teacher who writes an education column（专栏） called"Teacher Says"for the Washington Post newspaper．
In fact，kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more，but they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help．This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests．When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher，he or she can be someone to turn to with problems，such as problems with learning or school life，such as bullying．
As a kid in a primary or middle school，you're at a wonderful stage in your life．You're like a sponge （海绵），able to absorb lots of new and exciting inforation．On top of that，you're able to think about all this information in new ways．Your teacher knows that，in most cases，is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it．Remember，teachers are people，too，and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you．That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place-to teach!
Some kids may be able to learn in any situation，whether they lie the teacher or not．But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher，and if things aren't going well，they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class．

15．When I was nine years old I lived in a small town．I found an ad for selling greeting cards in the back of a children's magazine．I thought to myself I could do this．I begged my mother to let me send for the kit （配件）．Two weeks later the kit arrived．The next three hours later，I returned home with no card and a pocket full of money shouting，"Mama，all the people couldn't wait to buy my cards!"A salesperson was born．
When I was twelve years old，my father took me to see Zig Ziegler．I remember sitting in the dark hall listening to Mr．Ziegler raise everyone's spirits up to ceiling．I left there feeling like I could do anything．When we got to the car，I turned to my father and said，"Dad，I want to make people feel like that．"My father asked me what I meant．"I want to be a motivational speaker just like Mr．Ziegler，"I replied．A dream was born．
Recently，I began pursuing my dream of motivating others．I realized that everything I had accomplished-the graduate degree，the successful sales career，speaking appointments，training and managing for a major fortune 100company as a senior manager-had prepared me for this moment．I told my boss who was a great leader I would leave the company though I might not reach such a height in career．He told me to proceed and he believed I would succeed．
Having made that decision，I was immediately tested．One week after I gave notice，my husband was laid off from his job．We had recently bought a new home and needed both incomes to make the monthly mortgage （抵押） payment and now we were done to no income．I even planned to turn back to my former company，knowing they wanted me to stay but I was certain that if I went back，I would never leave．I decided I still wanted to move forward rather than end up with a mouth full of"if onlys"later on．A motivational speaker was born．
When I held fast to my dream，even during the tough times，the miracles（奇迹） really began to happen．In a short time period my husband found a better job．We didn't miss a mortgage payment．And I was able to book several speaking appointments with new clients （客户）．I discovered the incredible power of dreams．I loved my old job，my workmates and the company I left，but it was time to get on with my dream．To celebrate my success I had a local artist paint my new office as a garden．At the top of one wall she marked，"The world always makes way for the dreamer．"

12．Dear editor，
I'm sorry to occupy your precious time，and I really want to tell you anything about the prolem of some people keeping too many pets nowadays．I take the problem more and more seriously for the following reason．First of all，as it is known to people，pets make loud noise that trouble residents a lot．What's more，it is widely accepted that animal waste pollutes the environment，where makes people quite uncomfortable．Many owners like taking their pets to public place where they may frighten children or even bite people．The mostly important is that pets can spread some diseases and this has attracted much attention．Take all these factors into consideration，I sincerely hope that I can get help from you and expect the media do something for this．
Yours truly，
Wang Lin．

9．On August 16，1977，Elvis Presley saved me．
The previous afternoon，I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters'backyard．I was enjoying my cake，when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was．Only then did I know this party was a sleepover．The word"sleep-over"to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what"cancer"means to an adult．But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter？At least with cancer，people gather at your bedside instead of running from it．
I thought of a way to escape．I would explain that I needed my mother's permission to spend the nights．But as I called my Mom，Heather stood beside me to listen．She granted permission!Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls．I didn't bring my own pajamas （睡衣），so Mrs．Peters offered me Heather's pajamas．
As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams，I tried to stay awake．"Do I need to go again？I'll stay up to go one more time…"．Of course，I finally fell asleep．
The next morning，I was the first to wake up．I was warm!I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up．I did the only thing I could do-I pretended that the bed-wetting didn't happen．I got up，took off Heather's pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls．
Mrs．Peters walked into the room，and before she could say anything，she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas．My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red．"WHO DID THIS？"She screamed，with a look so frightening．Should I answer？And that was when it happened-Mr．Peters came in and grabbed his wife，‘‘Elvis Presley died!"
The news of the King's death overtook Mrs．Peters，and I，was spared．I got home without the other girl knowing what had happened．

8．A man and his girlfriend were married．It was a large celebration．All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony．Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true．
A few months later，the wife came to the husband with a piece of advice，"I read in a magazine，a while ago，about how we can strengthen our marriage，"she offered．"Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person．Then，we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives happier together．"
The husband agreed．So each of them tried to think of the things that annoyed them about the other and wrote down what they came up with．The next morning，at the breakfast table，they decided that they would go over their lists．
"I'll start，"offered the wife．She took out her list．It had many items on it，enough to fill three pages．In fact，as she started reading the list of the little annoyances，she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband's eyes because he never thought that he had so many shortcomings．
The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband．"Now，you read your list and then we'll talk about the things on both of our lists，"she said happily．
Quietly the husband stated，"I don't have anything on my list．I think that you are perfect．I don't want you to change anything for me．You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn't want to try and change anything about you．"The wife，touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her，turned her head and wept．
In life，there are enough times when we are disappointed，depressed and annoyed．We don't really have to go looking for them．We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty，light and promise．Why waste time in this world looking for the bad，disappointing or annoying when we can look around us and see the wonderful things before us？

7．A castle is a type of fortified（加固的）structure built in Europe and the Middle East during the Middle Ages．This is different from a palace，which is no fortified-though there are many similarities among these types of construction．Usage of the term has varied over time and has been applied to diverse structures．
The European castles originated in the 9^th and 10^th centuries，resulting in its land divided among nobles．These nobles built castles to control the area surrounding them，and they were both offensive and defensive structures．Although army uses are often emphasized in castle studies，the structures also served as centres of administration and symbols of power．Urban castles were used to control the local people and important travel routes，and rural castles were often built near farmland．
Many castles were originally built from earth and wood，but had their defences supplanted later by stone．In the late 12^th and early 13^th centuries scientific approaches to castle defence appeared，and could function to maximize the castle's firepower．These changes in defence came from a mixture of castle technology．Although gunpowder was introduced to be built well into the 16^th century，improved cannon（大炮）fire made them uncomfortable places to live in．As a result，true castles went into decline．
From the 18^th century onwards，there was a renewed interest in castles with the construction of mock（仿造的）castles，part of a romantic revival（复活）of Gothic architecture，but they had no defensive purpose．
