Passage 1

From the time I was a little child I always felt nobody

liked me. I never had any friends that I

could tell every thing to. I tried to make friends, but nobody seemed to care for me.

I

also

had

a

lot

of

problems

with

my

height.

Until

grade

mine

I

was

a

head

taller

than

everybody else. My classmates always laugh at me.

Things weren?t much better at home. The only way I could deal with my problems when I was

a little child was to cry a lot. My mother didn?t quite understand my feelings and

the crying made

her nervous and angry. Nobody in the family ever made an effort to understand me or even to talk

to me. My family isn?t what you?d call warm. There?s never any expression of love.

Things

started

getting

really

bad

in

high

school.

I

changed

schools.

In

the

old

school

even

though I didn?t have any friends I still had classmates to go out with; in the new school I had no

one.

At that age everybody was in groups. I felt out of it. I tried, but I couldn?t get along with the

others. I didn?t

like them. I thought something was wrong with me. They thought I was strange.

basket with a single egg inside. Soon more students join them--- each one of them is also carrying

a

broken have to start the two weeks all over again with a new egg.

One person on each pair must have the eggs with him or her at all times-twenty-four hours a day.

At no

time can they let the egg be out of sight. “if a teachers also make the students spend half an

hour

egg

hat
