13．Dear Mrs．Nugget，
You may remember that we have discussed the noise your children make while practicing the piano．You agreed to make sure that they would stop practicing in the evenings．
You can imagine my astonishment（惊讶），then，when I realized that nothing had changed and the situation was going on as before．I find it difficult to stay in the house and invent any excuse to go out for the evening to be away from the terrible noise．Though I like music very much，I have had enough，and to be honest，I am not prepared toput up with the situation any more．
I think it's high time that you realized your duty as a member of the community（社区），and I must warn you that unless you do something about the situation I will be forced to take legal （法律） action．

12．Sure，it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant．
And yes，it's good to get along with your teacher because，in general，it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life．
"But really，there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher．When you do，learning bursts right open，"says Evelyn Vuko，a longtime teacher who writes an education column called"Teacher Says"for the Washington Post newspaper．
In fact，kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more，but they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help．This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests．When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher，he or she can be someone to turn to with problems，such as problems with learning or school life，such as bullying．
As a kid in a primary or middle school，you're at a wonderful stage in your life．You're like a sponge （海绵），able to absorb lots of new and exciting information．On top of that，you're able to think about all this information in new ways．Your teacher knows that，in most cases，is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it．Remember，teachers are people，too，and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you．That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place-to teach!
Some kids may be able to learn in any situation，whether they like the teacher or not．But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher，and if things aren't going well，they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class．

D．there'll be no problems at all with learning

A．If you get on well with your teachers，you must have a good result in exams．
B．The more questions you ask，the higher marks you will get．
C．Many kids can do well without a good relationship with teachers．
D．If you have a good relationship with your teacher，you can turn to him when in trouble．

11．We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class．
"You could win prizes，"our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard．She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing，"The first prize is ten dollars．You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster．"
We studied the board critically．Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard，rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs．Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought．We had plans for that ten-dollar grand prize，each and every one of us．I'm going to spend mine on candies，one hopeful would announce，while another practiced looking serious，wise and rich．
Everyone in the class made a poster．Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins，while others used nothing but colored construction paper．Some of us used big designs，and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewer's attention to it．Some of us would wander past the good students'desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness．It was yet another grown-up trick of the sort they seemed especially fond of，making all of us believe we had a fair chance，and then always-always-rewarding the same old winners．
I believe I drew a sailboat，but I can't say that with any certainty．I made it．I admired it．I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen，and then I turned it in．
Minutes passed．No one came along to give me the grand prize，and then someone distracted me，and I probably never would have thought about that poster again．
I was still sitting at my desk，thinking，What poster？when the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me．
51．What was the teacher's requirement for the poster？D
A．It must appear in time．
