Being bullied can make you feel very lonely and angry，but you are not alone．Don’t feel that you have to hide the problem．You should find a person you can trust，and tell them．It might be your teacher，your parents，or even your friend’s parents．After you tell someone，you will get some support and feel some relief (解脱)．Speaking to an adult might make you nervous，but here are other things you can do．Some people express their feelings more easily on paper．Write a letter to someone or keep a diary．Include all the details about what the bullies (欺人者) do, as well as when and where the bullying happens．You can use it as proof to show what is going on．And it is a wonderful idea to show your letter or diary to a teacher or another responsible adult．Then the bullies will feel very afraid if their names appear in a letter!Also，don’t show you are sad and don’t try to fight with the bullies.

His enemies (敌人)were searching for him. All around him were grassy hills without trees. He had nowhere to hide. How could he escape?Hannay walked along the country for a long time. Then he saw a road worker, who was working alone, fixing the road. Hannay could see the road worker was not feeling well. Hannay came up to him and said ―How are you?‖―My head hurts,‖ the worker said, ―I can’t do it. I want to go home to bed. My daughter got married yesterday, and I drank a l ot of wine with my friends. That’s the problem!‖Hannay agreed that he should be home in bed.―Yes, and I would be,‖ he replied,‖but yesterday I received a message saying that the new surveyor was coming to look at my work. If he comes and finds me away, I’ll be in trouble.‖Suddenly Hannay had bright idea--he could act as the road worker and get away from his enemies.―You go off to bed,‖ Hannay said,‖I’ll do your job until the new surveyor comes.‖The road worker was pleased with this idea. He gave Hannay his hat and his old coat. Then he went home to sleep and perhaps to drink a bit more. Hannay put on the worker’s hat and coat and began to fix the road. About an hour later he heard a voice.―Are you the road worker?‖ it asked.It was the new surveyor. He was a young man with a clean face. He sat in a small car.Hannay said yes. The surveyor told him about some work he wanted him to do before he came by again and drove off. Hannay continued with his work.Then a village boy came by.‖What has happened to the road worker?‖ he asked.―He stayed at home today,‖ Hannay replied.‖He’s sick.‖At about midday, a large car came down the hill and stopped near Hannay.

But16we become teenagers, things change, and we begin togrow apart from our parents. This means we are almost ready to leave the house wherewe grow up and make a new home17our own.All humans must do this, but they don’ t all do it in the same way. If, for instance, you belonged to a primitive tribe( 原始部落 ), then as you grew up, you would learn the18you needed as an adult— how to catch fish, how to keep house and look after children. You would be ready to marry in your early teens and you would build a houseand 19 near your family in the village.This seems a very old way of life, but it is what humans have been 20to through hundreds of years. And it is what we are still used to in the 21st century, forman hasn ’ t changed in the short time. But could you leave home and21yourself during the teen years? Most people would not do very well. Why?
