As Christmas is coming, there are presents to be bought, cards to be sent, rooms to be cleaned. Parents are with difficult jobs of hiding presents from curious young children. If the gifts are large, this is sometimes a real . On Christmas Eve, young children find the almost unbearable(难以忍受的). They are between the wish to go to bed early so that Father Christmas will bring their presents quickly and the wish to up late so that they will not the fun. The wish for gifts usually proves stronger. But though children go to bed early, they often lie for a long time, hoping to get a short look at Father Christmas.
Last Christmas, my wife and I managed to hide a few large presents in the storeroom. I feared the moment when my son, Jimmy, would me where that new bike had come from, but he did not see it.
On Christmas Eve, it took the children hours to go to sleep. It must have been nearly when my wife and I went quietly into their room and began stockings. Then I pushed in the I bought for Jimmy and left it beside the Christmas tree. We knew we would not get sleep that night, for the children were to get up early. At about five o'clock the next morning, we were woken by loud sounds coming from the children's room - they were shouting excitedly! I had time to get out of bed, young Jimmy came into the room on his new bike, and his sister, Mary, close behind pushing her new baby carriage. Even the baby arrived, he moved the hands and knees into the room dragging a large balloon behind him. Suddenly it burst. That woke up completely. The day had really begun with a bang(巨响).

In this age of cell phones, text messages and computer keyboards, one Scottish school has returned to basics.It's teaching youngsters the ignored art of writing with a fountain pen.There is no clicking of keyboards in most classrooms at the Mary Erskine and Stewart's Melville Junior School, although there is a full range of facilities (设施)for computer lessons and technology isn' t being ignored.The private school' s headmaster believes the old-fashioned pens have helped strengthen the academic (学术的) performance and self-esteem (自尊)of his 1,200 pupils.
"The pens improve the quality of work because they force the children to take care, and better work improves self-esteem", headmaster Bryan Lewis said." Proper handwriting is as relevant today as it ever has been." Students as young as 7 have been instructed to give up their ball point pens and begin to deal with its more artful predecessor.By the time they reach grade five, at age 9, they are expected to write mainly with fountain pens.Lewis said the school's 7- and 8-year-olds use fountain pens for 80 percent to 90 percent of their work, returning to pencils for such subjects as math."I don't see fountain pens as old-fashioned or out of date.Modern fountain pens are beautiful to use? it's not like in the old days of broken metal points and dirtying writing paper," Lewis said."We have a particular writing style and we have developed it very carefully and found a way that allows left-and right-handed people to write without dirtying paper."
Some people in wealthy nations argue that handwriting is becoming less important because of the growing use of cell phone text messaging and typing on computers, but the school disagrees."We talk of the paperless office and the paperless world, but this is not true," Lewis said."You still need to have proper handwriting skills."

Some schools in the United States offer Chinese language classes with government support from China.
Saint Mary’s School is a private college preparatory school in Medford, Oregon.
Carly Irvine is in her fourth year of learning Mandarin(普通话).

Frankenstein is one of the world’s most famous horror stories. It’s about a doctor who creates a new man from the body parts of dead people and brings it to life. But the experiment goes wrong and the monster(怪兽) kills the doctor and many others. The story has been read by millions since it was first published and in the last hundred years it has been made into dozens of movies. Many people are surprised to learn its writer was a 19-year-old woman, called Mary Shelley.
Mary was born into a rich London family in August 1797. She was educated by her parents and when she was 13 she decided to become a writer. In 1812, she met the famous writer Percy Shelley and they soon got married. Sadly for Mary, their first child died soon after birth in Italy. In her diary, Mary wrote about a dream:“I dreamt that my little baby came to life again---that it had only been cold and that we rubbed it before the fire and it lived.”
In 1816, Percy Shelley and 19-year-old Mary visited the poet Lord Byron at his home in Switzerland. Because of the bad weather they stayed indoors reading horror stories. On night, Byron asked everyone to write their own story. Mary thought of her dream and wrote the story of Frankenstein
Frankenstein was published when Mary was 21, and became a huge success. Many people didn’t think a 19-year-old woman could write so well and believed her husband was the real writer.
Although famous, Shelley’s life was full of sadness. Only one of her four children lived and in 1822 her husband died in a swimming accident. Mary was broken-hearted and decided not to marry again. She devoted herself to her child and continued to write until her death in 1851.
【小题1】Where was Mary Shelley when she wrote the story Frankenstein ?
A.In England | B.In Italy | C.In Switzerland | D.In France |
A.a,c,b,e,d | B.d,c,a,b,e | C.c,a,b,d,e | D.b,a,d,c,e |
