19、As a teacher，I think it is right to tell my students to write about their true feelings and real experiences．I always taught my students how to learn by experience．And I also found that it helped me a lot to get on well with the students．

    One day after explaining a tex，I asked my students to write a passage about their families．I encouraged them to write about their real experiences with their closest family members．All the students wrote quite well but the best one of them was written by a little girl．She was Hao Fang．I was deeply moved by her story．In her passage，she said her father had died years before and her mother had to work hard to support the family．Many times she had seen her mother work deep into night but never seen tears on her face．She also wrote that she needed to stay strong and she would do the best to give her mother an easier life in the future．Like her mother, Hao Fang also worked hard at her lessons and she was really good at any of them．I don’t know anything about her unlucky family till then．She always appeared happy and never showed that she needed anyone’s help．

    In order to make her an example to the class．I read this passage to the class．When I finished reading it，I found my throat choked and my students’ eyes full of tears．After class nearly all my other students crowded around Hao Fang and gave their money to help this girl．We knew her family needed money very much．Many students decided to offer her more help．To tell the truth，I was really proud of my students．

    But to my surprise，this student of mine didn’t express her thanks to her classmates and left school without even telling me the next day．I was puzzled about this．

    Was it right to tell her sad story to the class? Why did she refuse to accept the donation? These questions crowded my mind．

4．By reading the article，we know that Hao Fang__________．

  A．appreciated the donation

  C．wanted to improve her family’s life by working hard

5．We can learn from the article that __________．
