He was there, he had them in his hands, and now they are missing.”Samuel remembered two days ago when he had brought out his coin collection for Everett to see. At the end of that day, Samuels mother asked him to take a note to Mr. Bates down the street, so he asked his friend, “Is it okay if I leave you for a few minutes?” Everett had said, “Go ahead. Ill clean up here,” pointing at the coins on the floor. When Samuel returned, he had done his homework, had eaten dinner, and had read for a while before bed. It was not until two days later that he realized the quarters(2角5分硬币) were gone.Emily said, “Why dont you just ask him?” “Ask him what? Hey, Best Friend, did you steal my coin collection?” Samuel thought for a moment, deciding if that would be a good idea. The theft of his collection left him with a feeling of betrayal (背叛). “How could I have misconceived my friend?”The next day Samuel went over to Everetts house. Everett was acting funny. In fact, Samuel thought Everett was acting like someone with a secret. Suddenly, Everett cried, “I cant stand it any more!” and pulled something from beneath the chair. “Go onopen it! I was going to wait until your birthday tomorrow, but I cant wait!”Slowly, Samuel lifted the top of the box. Laid out in front of him were all of the quarters from his coin collection. Each quarter was in its own place in a new collection box. Each quarter shone like it was new.Samuel felt heat rush over his neck and ears. He weakly said, “Thank youthis means. a great deal to me.” He was thankful that Everett had cut him off before he said something bad. Everett was exactly the type of person he wanted as a friend!21.

Rowling said she had once been so depressed(抑郁)that she wanted to kill herself. Rowling, 42, went through a low period in her mid20s, ending the marriage(婚姻) with her first husband. She had not become famous and rich with the Harry Potter series of books and was a single mother, fighting to earn a living. “The thing that made me go for help,” said Rowling, “ was probably my daughter. She was something that comforted me and encouraged me. She cannot grow up with me in this condition.” Her first try of getting help was a failure, however. The substitute（替班）doctor who took the place of her regular doctor ignored the signs of her suicide(自杀) and sent her home, telling her to come to speak with the practice nurse if she felt “a bit low”. “We are talking suicidal thoughts here,” said Rowling. “We are not talking about I am a little bit painful.” Luckily for Rowling, her regular doctor was more sensitive and called her back into her office and got her in to consult. “She saved me because I dont think I would have had the courage to go and do it twice.” “I have never been ashamed(羞愧) of having been depressed,” added Rowling. “Never. What is to be ashamed of? Nobody can escape a hard time in life. I went through a really difficult time and I am quite proud that I got out of that.”28. What caused Rowlings depression?A.

Growing numbers of teenagers are giving us a new face: a socially responsible young kid. Theyre not only doing good in their local communities（社区）,but theyre also having a global influence. Many of them have created free websites, attracting kids who also want to help others like themselves.“They are the most socially aware(有意识的) kids ever,” says Michael Ungar, a professor of social work at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. “They do care about the global community.”Craig Kielburger, 27, of Toronto, started Free the Children, at age 12 after hearing about the death of a 12-year-old child laborer(童工).He said his parents were ordinary people, but their actions made an impression. His mother would ask the homeless their names as she helped them. “Ill never forget that simple life lesson: to recognize somebodys humanity(人性) and not just to walk by. It was a simple thing she did, but those kinds of teachings had a strong influence on how we looked at the world.”His father would “ put the newspaper on the table and read it with family, talking about what was happening in the world. He saw it as a chance to have a conversation with us to open our eyes to what was going on in the world,” says Kielburger, the author of The World Needs Your Kid.He says parents need to encourage their kids to be caring and merciful. “We need people who care about others.”32.We learn from the first paragraph that people_.A. are very proud of teenagersB. begin to think highly of teenagersC. usually have a low opinion of teenagers D. think teenagers have too much freedom33.Craig Kielburger started Free the Children probably because_.A. his parents were great and influenced him a lotB. his mother showed great care for the homelessC. he knew many children were working as laborersD. he was shocked at the death of a 12-year-old child laborer 34.
