A gentleman stopped his car at the door of a flower shop. He planned to order flowers and asked the shopkeeper to deliver them to his mother, who was far away in his hometown.

The gentleman saw a little girl crying on the road before he entered the shop. The gentleman asked her: “Why are you crying?”

“I want to buy a rose for my mother, but I haven’t got enough money,” said the girl.

The gentleman took the girl’s hand and entered the flower shop. He first ordered the bouquet (花束) for his mother and bought a rose for the girl.

When he was walking out of the shop, the gentleman asked the girl if she would like a ride home.

“Will you really drive me home?” she asked.

“Of course,” the gentleman replied.

“Then drive me to my mother. But the place where my mother lives is very far.”

The gentleman drove along the mountain road and finally came to the cemetery (墓地).

The little girl put the flower onto a new grave (坟墓). In order to send a rose to her mother who had died a month before, she had gone on a very long journey.

The gentleman drove the girl to her home and then returned to the flower shop. He cancelled（取消）the bouquet and bought a big bunch (束) of fresh flowers instead. He drove directly to his mother’s home, a five-hour drive from here. He would send the flowers to his mother in person.

Here comes the last term of Junior 3. Terrible! The big exam is coming in less than two months. You still have a lot to do. How will you spend it? We invited three students to share their stories.

Dou Yi, 15,Beijing

My chemistry  used to be poor in the past. I got scores of around 40 on every test. During the last term, I decide to beat chemistry. I will start to work hard. In class I take every possible note. After school, I spend most of my time studying chemistry. My parents also ask their friend, a chemistry teacher, to help me . Finally in the latest exam, I got 65! How happy I am!

Wang Zhaolin, 16, Chongqing

My foot got hurt a week before the big PE exam . Luckily, I recovered（康复） in time. For PE , all you need is to practice. Sports can also help you relax. Be careful not to get hurt as I did.

Wang Feixuan, 15, Xi’an

My experience is that for Junior3, every minute of the last term is important. Don’t waste any of them. I try to remember English words while waiting in line to get my lunch. I read textbooks on the bus to and from school. I work hard at home and sometimes stay up late studying. Want to have fun? Leave it for the summer holiday after the big exam!

4.Which of the following sentences is WRONG?

Sports, school are tiring. But there is a great way to unwind after all of those activities. Go to north London, to the coolest part of the city---Camden. There you can find fashion trends (流行，趋向) and famous people.
Sam and I walked down Camden High Street and made our way to a bridge over Regent’s Canal. It is a 9-mile man-made river that goes through London.
We went into a big market and saw crazy signs, fun T-shirts, and things like hand-made earrings for sale. We bought Chinese fried noodles. It tasted very different from the noodles we make at home, and we ate it with a fork instead of chopsticks! 
Camden is famous for the punk（朋克）style that started in the 1970s. Punks walked around with bright pink and green hair, broken clothes with safety pins, metal buttons（纽扣）and pierced ears and lips. Punk music shops played loud, heavy rock music.
But there were also groups of hippies（嬉皮士）with big sweaters. They sat in cafes drinking soymilk, with black clothes, black lipstick and painted white faces.
Besides all these “normal” people, a lot of famous people come to Camden. Actor Orlando Bloom from Pirates of the Caribbean lives there.
Camden is especially known as a home to famous musicians. Lots of top bands played here, including Coldplay, Oasis---and Sam’s favourite band, The Vaccines. I had never heard of them before---But luckily they were playing that night in Camden.
