一、阅读理解
1.
Mother’s Day came. I
learned a song on the Internet for mum. I also
found a great video. I
showed it to mum
and she liked it very much. My grandparents came
to visit us and they
brought some
flowers. I also showed grandma the nice video. She
loved it, too.
Dad doesn’t cook often.
But this time he did everything by himself. He
cleaned the
vegetables cut them and
then cooked. He also made chicken soup and fruit
salad. I’m sure
he put his love into
the food. He was glad when we told him that his
food was delicious.
After the meal, I
sang the song to my mum and grandma. They loved it
and said I did a good
job I didn’t
really have a gift for them, so I did the dishes
and let mum have a break.
Happy Mother’s day to all
mothers.

The students often
gather together in small, closed groups. If you
are not part of a group, it
can be
difficult for you to be accepted. This is
especially true if you can’t speak to the
members of the group in their language.
This was the situation Sam faced each
day as he went to class. Sam and his family moved
to
France last month. Before he
arrived, he knew there would be many difficulties.
But they
were even worse than he had
imagined.
Every lunch hour, after
arriving at his new school, Sam sat alone in the
dining hall. He looked
at all the
different groups of students around him but he had
no way to let them know that
he was a
good person. He simply couldn’t find the right
words to reach them.
Sam
knew he had to find a way to change the situation.
And he had to adapt
（适应）
to
this
environment, he did a little
research on the internet and discovered that
smiling is a
universal language-it is
understood everywhere.
One morning, as
Sam was walking by a group o students, he smiled
at them. A boy in the
group smiled back
at him. For Sam, that was a good beginning. Later,
he noticed the boy
coming towards him
in the hall with a warm smile on his face. Sam
returned the smile.
Soon the boy asked
Sam to join him and his group of friends for
lunch.
Although Sam wasn’t able to say
much in French everyone smiled and laughed. Before
he
knew it, Sam had a group of friends,
and they all wanted to help him learn French.
