摘要：三．BWhat would you do if you were a fifth grader facing a huge homework load every night, and you found out that there was a machine that would do all the work for you? That's the situation presented to Sam, Kelsey, Judy and Brenton in Dan Gutman's entertaining new book for young readers, The Home Machine. The four children, all fifth graders in Miss Rasmussen's Grand Canyon School, are as different as any other 11-year-old child could be, but they have one thing in common - all are somewhat separated from their classmates. Sam is a newcomer and has had his share of school trouble before; Kelsey quietly carries her pain at losing her father; Judy's sense of justice always annoys others; Brenton is the smartest child in the school, so smart that even his parents and teachers have trouble keeping up with him. When Brenton and his three classmates are put into the same study group by their teacher, the others discover that Brenton has made a time-saving gadget to do homework for him. While the boy is perfectly able to do his homework himself, Sam, Kelsey and Judy can use the help. Having perfect grades is something new for these three, and as they meet every day to "do homework", they find that they're learning a lot about each other. Such a good thing can't last though, and when a secret man starts trying to get in touch with them, they begin to get nervous. Soon there's an even more frightening problem ― why can't the Homework Machine be turned off? Told in different voices as all the children make statements to the Grand Canyon Police, the story develops in an interesting fashion. Gutman is a gifted writer who has written dozens of children's books, each with a funny and impressing table that should be equally liked by boys and girls.24. What is one common thing that all the four children have to deal with at school? A. Getting along with their classmates. B. Doing their homework by themselves. C. Overcoming difficulties on their own. D. Catching up with others to get good grades.

In this article I'd like to tell you how to behave better in an IELTS oral English test. Everyone will make necessary preparations for some possible topics in order to increase your performance in the interview. 1. What would you do if you were asked in an interview to talk about how you feel about your hometown if in fact you really dislike living there?

Some people might think that being truthful in this situation and giving a negative answer, they would not do the right thing. 2. They talk about how they love living there and give a positive answer which sounds more attractive.

3. And giving a negative opinion of something is not important, either. 4. If you have more to say by being truthful, even if it is to express a negative opinion, then that is what you should talk about.

5. And follow it up with your reasons for disliking it instead of saying “I like my hometown…” and then struggle to find something to say.

We should consider how to deal with this situation in the best way

A. However, sometimes, you will be asked to talk about something that you don’t really like or don’t really want to talk about.

B. What is your true feeling about your hometown?

C. Instead, they try to hide their true feelings.

D The important thing is that you have something to express.

E. No one should have a negative feeling about their hometown.

F. It would be much better to say “Actually I don’t really like my hometown…”

G. Actually, truthfulness is not important in such an interview.

After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent him this letter.
Dear son,
I want to thank you for teaching me a very valuable lesson in life by the great example you   31 . When we were eating at that cafe in Boston and a person who had 32 his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay for it, without   33 , you went over and   34  the extra $2 into his hand.
When we were leaving, you   35  threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said something like, “Some kid will really enjoy   36  this.”
Last week, a young man   37  me in the line at a petrol station didn’t have   38  money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, “How much   39  is he?” She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his car   40  he had been looking at the wrong gauge (计量表) and had put in 15   41 , which came to a little over $20. That is an easy mistake as both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and   42  you did that night at the cafe in Boston. I handed the man $6. He was so   43  and said, “But why would you do this for me?” I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you, son, for teaching me that “it’s   44  to give than to receive”. Now when I see a five-cent coin on the   45  and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it there, just in case some kid will get a kick out of finding it.
Love always, Mum.
