33、a. Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and farm provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, Id wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the fa
34、rm. My parents would never agree. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and falling into pieces. Still, my wish to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally, one spring afternoon, I summoned (鼓起) all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathere
35、d after Sunday dinner.I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls, I said hesitantly. Everyone looked up. Can I climb the stone walls? Immediately a chorus went up from the women in the room. Heavens, no! they cried, Youll hurt yourself! I wasnt too disappointed; the response was just as Id expected. But
36、before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfathers loud voice. Now hold on just a minute, I heard him say, Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.Go, he said to me, and come and see me when you get back. For the next two and a half hours I climbed th
37、ose old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventure. Ill never forget what he said. Fred, he said, smiling widely, you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember: theres only one person in this whole world like you, and I
38、 like you as you are.Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister RogersNeighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit.

When Fred was young, he didnt take his parents opinions seriously.CWhen children are little, we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so thatwe can be sure they know
43、all the words they are reading. This means that when they dont know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. They may lose face in public. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid (消除) them of their fear and dislike of
44、books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously (冒险地).One day soon after school had started, I said to them, Now I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. ! am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the
45、books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, thats enough for me. Also Im not going to ask you what words mean.The children sat amazed and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard t
46、ime, looked at me for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, Mr Holt, do you really mean that? I said just as seriously, I mean every word of it.During the .spring she really surprised me. One day, she was reading Moby Dick (白鲸) at her desk. I sai
47、d. Dont you find parts of it rather heavy going?

60、Beggars are often seen sitting by the side of a street with heads bowed people pass them by. Some ask people passing by for a small amount of money and some just sit and wait to be given money. A few use aggressive behaviour to earn money.To solve the problem of aggressive begging, an “alternative g
61、iving” plan has been suggested. Ten blue money boxes will be placed in busy places such as the market and the railway station. It aims to encourage people not to give money directly to beggars but instead to give generously to local homeless causes.Supporters of this plan think it will be an effecti

The homeless charity “Crisis” said the success of any plan will depend on its style. They think that imaginative and po

Most of the beggars dislike the plan because they think they will not get enough money from the boxes for their showers, food and clothes.Begging is a big social problem both in developing and developed countries. Gov
64、ernments must be actively involved in solving this problem. Training beggars to work and helping them to find appropriate jobs is one option. This is especially true for developing countries where many low-skill jobs exist.The general community should also be educated to see beggars not as dirty and

Whats more, the wisdom of classic Chinese poetry and wri
73、tings helps students cope with the challenges they are faced with in life, shaping their views of life.For opponents of the reform, writings in classic Chinese are no longer used in daily life. Additionally, students in primary and junior high schools are too young to understand them. Therefore, the
74、y are afraid that students will totally lose interest in Chinese.From my perspective, it is important to learn the classic Chinese poetry and writings, for they are an important part of Chinese culture. We should treasure our cultural heritage. Yet I dont think it is necessary to include a lot of classic poetry and writings in textbooks. After all, the purpose of learning the classics is to appreciate them rather than prepare for exams.
