Some students cheat(作弊) because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without (41) the time studying. Other students might feel that they can’t (42) the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, it isn’t a good (43).

A student who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test (44) to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some better ways together. Talking about these problems and (45) them out will help feel better than cheating.

    If a student gets (46) cheating, the teacher may give a “(47)” on the test, send him or her to the head teacher’s (48), and call his or her parents. Worse than the (49) grade may be the feeling of having disappointed those people, (50) parents and teachers. A parent may worry that you are not an (51) person and a teacher might watch you more (52) the next time you’re taking a test.

There are plenty of reasons why a kid shouldn’t cheat, but some students have already cheated. If that’s you, it’s (53) too late to stop cheating. Cheating can become a (54), but a student is always able to act better and make better (55). It might help to talk the problem over with a parent, teacher, or friend.

It was my first day at Grade 6. And the first lesson was 　41　 English. When I was doing nothing, Mr. Gough, our new English teacher, 　42　 into the classroom.

To my surprise, he held up a book, The Collected Works of Edgar Allen Poe, and asked if anyone 　43　 it. I put my hand up, because Poe was my favorite writer. Mr. Gough asked if I really understood 　44　 the author tried to say in his book. My reply made him smile, and he asked me 　45　 an essay on that subject.

After that, English classes became a new interest for me. Mr. Gough thought that students hadto　　46　 a play to understand it. “Don’t just read it,” he said.

As time passed, we developed a real friendship. He encouraged me to be a 　47　 in the future. When I left school, he said to me, “You have a gift for writing, Tony, and one day you’ll come to realize how 　48　 it is. Make use of it if you want your life to be complete.”

　49　 have passed. Now, every time I sit down to write 　50　, I think of Mr. Gough. He was more than just an English teacher, because he also taught me useful lessons in life.

I watched quietly as my little brother was caught in the act. He sat in the corner of the living room, a 　41 in one hand and my father's new book in the other.

　 　42 my father walked into the room, my brother cowered (畏缩) slowly. He sensed that he had done something 　43　 . From a distance I could see that he had 　44 my father's new book and scribbled (乱画) in it. Now, looking at my father in 45　 , he and I both waited for his punishment.

　 My father 　46　 up his prized book, looked at it carefully, and then sat down, without saying a word. Books were 　47 to him. He was a clergyman（牧师） and for him, books were 　48 .What he did next was unbelievable. Instead of 　49 my brother, he sat down, took the pen from 　50 , and then wrote in the book himself, alongside the scribbles John had made:

John s work, 1959, age 2. How many times have I looked into your beautiful face and into your warm, alert (警觉的) eyes looking up at me? And how many times have I 51 God for the one who has now scribbled in my new book?

　 "Wow," I thought, "This is punishment?" The years and the books came and went. Our family experienced what all families go through and perhaps a little bit more: happiness and 　52　 , laughter and tears. We always knew our parents 　53 us and that one of the proofs (证明) of their love was the book. From time to time we would 　54 it, look at the scribbles, read my father's expression of love, and feel 　55　 .

American people have the habit of saying “Thank you” when something kind is done for them or something polite is said to them, no matter how easy the thing is. This habit is learned by people of many　 46　 countries.

　 You should say “Thank you” when someone　 47　 you the salt on the table, when someone steps aside to let you　 48　 in a corridor (走廊), when someone　 49　 ahead of you keeps the door open　 50　 you, when someone says your work is well　 51　 or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is　 52　 not only between strangers or new friends, but also between old friends, parents and children, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. Parents often tell　 53　 children that they should say “Thank you” in answering to a kind word or act when they are only four　 54　 five years old. Perhaps that’s 　 55　 almost everyone has got this habit.
