　　When I was thirteen years old, a boy gave me an important gift．It was a smile．

　　It was the early autumn of my first year at a junior high school, and my old school was far away．As a result, no one knew who I was．I was very lonely and afraid to make friends with anyone．

　　Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break．I couldn’t talk to anyone about my problem, and I didn’t want my parents to worry about me．

　　Then one day, my classmates talked happily with their friends, but I sat at my desk unhappily as usual．At that moment, a boy entered the classroom．I didn’t know who he was．He passed me and then turned back．He looked at me and smiled without a word．

　　Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly．It made me feel happy and warm．

　　That smile changed my life．I started to talk with the other students and made friends．Day by Day, I became closer to everyone in my class．The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now．

　　One day, I asked him why he smiled, but he couldn’t remember smiling at me!It doesn’t matter because all the dark days have gone．Now I believe that the world is what you think it is．If you think you are lonely, you might always be alone．So smile at the world and it will smile back．

　　At work we often have to ask others to do things for us．The languages we use to ask for help will be different in different situations(情形)．We are usually more polite when we are asking another person to do something big for us．

　　The language also, of course, shows the relationship between the person who needs help and the person who will help．If we are asking a stranger to do something, we use language which is much more polite than when speaking to a workmate in the office or a friend．For example, you need a person to help you turn on the printer(打印机)．If a stranger is near it, you may say, “Could you please turn on the printer?” But if your friend is there, you may say, “Hi, turn on the printer for me．”

　　John was seven．He lived with his grandparents in the countryside before he came to our class because his parents had to work in the city．They also had no time to take care of him．So he was a new student in our class．And he knew nothing about the things that happened in big cities．Now he was standing in the front of the classroom because Mr．Smith, the teacher, was asking John a lot of questions．But John couldn't answer any of them．Mr．Smith then decided to ask him some easier questions so that he could answer a few．

　　“What was Thomas Edison?”he asked．

　　John thought for some time and then answered in a very low voice,“A singer from America．”

　　“No．Thomas Edison was a great American inventor,”Mr．Smith said．He was getting a little angry now because everyone knows the great man, but he was trying not to let his students see that．Then he asked again．“Who was the first president(总统)of the United States?”

　　John thought for a long time, but said nothing．Mr．Smith shouted,“George Washington!”John turned back and began to walk to his seat sadly．

　　“Come back!”Mr．Smith shouted．“I didn’t tell you to go back!”

　　“I’m sorry,”John said．“I thought you were calling the next student．”

　　If you go out, you can find cars here and there．Bad smoke from a car can get into the air．This bad smoke is called pollution．

　　Pollution turns the air a gray color．It is very dirty．It also makes the air around us get worse and worse．It is not good for our health．

　　To keep pollution down, the States test cars every two years．This test checks to make sure the cars do not pollute the air．If a car doesn’t pass the test, the owner can’t drive it the next year．

　　Some car owners drive their cars even though they can’t pass the test．It is also very bad for the air．

　　People want to find a way to get these cars off the road．So a state program was started．Now it seems to be helping．In the state program, the States buy cars that can’t pass the test or will help pay for repairs．This program has been helping people buy better cars or fix their old ones．And the air is becoming better and better．

　　The state program that takes pollution cars off the road has just finished its first year, and people say it has been successful．For the past year, the state program has been buying cars that can’t pass the test, and the cars bought by the States through the program are put out of use．
