“Are you listening, Simon?” Simon’s teacher asked. It was a pretty usual question.
Simon shook his head, smiling. He hardly listened or tried hard in class. Talking was so much fun. He wanted to be heard rather than listen.
“Listen, and you’ll learn something.” Mrs. Jacobs tried every day, but Simon never paid attention.
That evening, his throat really hurt. The next morning, when he opened his mouth to say “Good morning”, nothing came out but a croak(低哑声).
Simon’s mother looked at him. “Honey, you’ve lost your voice.”
“Can I stay at home?” He tried to ask, but words didn’t come out. Instead, his mother checked him for a fever and decided it was good for him to go school, even if he couldn’t talk.
When he got to school, Mrs. Jacobs said “Hello” to him, and he just nodded. When his friends asked him what TV shows he watched last night, but just shrugged(耸肩). By the time the bell rang for class, almost everyone was looking at him as if he’d grown a third eye.
Penny raised her hand. “Mrs. Jacobs, why isn’t Simon talking”?
“He never stops talking,” Richard worriedly.
Everyone started talking at once. They were excited, worried, and surprised.
Simon sat in class, bored. He watched them talk to each other as if the teacher wasn’t there, but he couldn’t even do that. In math class he could hold up fingers ifthe answer was less than 10, but that wasn’t fun. He decided to try to pay attention.
He could do his homework that night. It gave him TV and game time with his work all done.
The next day, even though his voice was coming back, he stayed quiet again. The third day, he could talk fine, but he listened and raised his hand to speak.
What a difference that one day made!

After leaving school for many years, a group of graduates visited their teacher. All of them complained about problems and stress in their work and lives.
The teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large bottle of coffee and many kinds of cups---china, plastic and glass. He told them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of in their hands, the teacher said, “If you noticed, all the nice-looking and expensive cups had been taken, but the simple and cheap ones had been left behind. Although it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source(根源) of your problems and stress. In fact, the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee, it is a tool to contain(容纳) what we drink.”
What all of them really wanted was coffee; not the cups, but they all went for the best cups. And then they began to watch other’s cups. Life is the coffee; jobs, money and the social position are the cups. The cups we have do not change the quality of our life.
Sometimes, if we only pay attention to the cup, we will fail to enjoy the coffee.
The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

March 2 is Old Stuff Day(旧物日). It is all about old stuff. Things you used have been forgotten for ages in your home. You must have some old stuff around. And today is all about enjoying it. Because what’s better than finding something really great from days gone by?
It’s so easy to forget things you have. If we don’t use them every day, some things can be put away and stay there. And that’s not just the things in your home---technology grows so quickly, new toys come out all the time, new books keep coming out. In the age of new information, we can have so many things easily.

People today will pay a pretty penny for stamps, toys, video games, board games books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.
You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop(旧货店). Another person’s old stuff could be your new stuff! Or maybe now is a good day to clean up ? Old stuff could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always send your old things to a charity shop. If you’re free, you could turn your old clothes into new ones with just a little change.
Today could be a good day to visit your older families. You could ask your grandparents to tell you stories about family history, their childhood and their youth. Learn about what was going on in the world when they were growing up.
Most of all, remember that today’s new stuff will one day be old stuff

Everyone needs help sometimes. People depend on one another. That’s why communities have special people ready to lend a helping hand to anyone who needs it.
For example, what would we do without a community fire station? If a home catches fire, as the Jackson place did last week, it might be burned down and people get hurt… or worse. We’re so lucky to have firemen to come to save people and put out the fire, safely. If the fire station hadn’t come so fast, the Jacksons might have lost everything.
And what about our local police who protect our families, our homes and valuable things? The police have helped so many families this past year, especially saving people and pets and protecting our houses and other things after the heavy rains.
Think about all the other service workers we have in this community. We have people who collect waste and rubbish and keep our community sanitary. We have road workers who put up and repair traffic signs and fix holes the streets to protect not just us, but our cars! And where would the community be without the teachers in our school and the doctors, and nurses in our community hospitals?
Think again about what we eat every day, think again about what we wear every day. We cannot produce them, but we use them all the time. We get a lot from all these tireless workers who keep our community running. We need these people in the community. We depend on each other. Let’s support each other and help each other. Only in this way can we make our community a better place.
( )37. What happened to the Jacksons last week?
A. Their pets were lost. B. Their car was badly burnt.
C. Their house caught fire. D. Their valuable things were stolen.
( )38.Whooffered help to families after the heavy rains?
A. Firemen B. Doctors C. Road workers D. Local police
( )39. What does the underlined word “ sanitary” mean ?
A. Clean. B. safe. C. Quiet. D. Busy.
( )40. Which question could best help us find out the writer’s purpose?
A. Did the writer make us laugh?
B. Did the writer want us to do something?
C. Did the writer tell us about how to become a teacher?
D. Did the writer teach us what to do when a fire breaks out?
