of the Spring Park School bullies pushing the deaf kid around.I did not know the boy at all but I knew that we were about the same age， because of his size.He lived in the old white house across the street from the orphanage where I lived.I had seen him on his front porch several times doing absolutely nothing， eXcept just sitting there making funny like hand movements.In the summer time we didnt get much to eat for Sunday supper，eXcept watermelon and then we had to eat it outside behind the dining room so we would not make a mess on the tables inside.About the only time that I would see him was through the high chain-link fence that surrounded the orphanage when we ate our watermelon outside.The deaf kid started making all kind of hand signals， real fast like._You are a stupid idiot_ said the bigger of the two bullies as he pushed the boy down on the ground.The other bully ran around behind the boy and kicked him as hard as he could in the back.The deaf boys body started shaking all over and he curled up in a ball trying to shield and hide his face.He lookedlike he was trying to cry， or something but he just couldnt make any sounds， I dont think.I ran as fast as I could back through the orphanage gate and into the thick azalea bushes.I uncovered my home-made bow which I had constructed out of bamboo and string.I grabbed four arrows that were also made of bamboo and they had coca cola tops bent around the ends to make real sharp tips.Then I ran back out the gate with an arrow cocked in the bow and I just stood there quiet like， breathing real hard just daring either one of them to kick or touch the boy again._Youre a dumb freak just like him you big eared creep_ said one of the boys as he grabbed his friend and backed off far enough so that the arrow would not hit them._If youre so brave kick him again now_ I said， shaking like a leaf.The bigger of the two bullies ran up and kicked the deaf boy in the middle of his back as hard as he could and then he ran out of arrow range again.The boy jerked about and then made a sound that I will never forget for as long as I live.It was the sound like a whale makes when it has been harpooned and knows that it is about to die.I fired all four of my arrows at the two bullies as they ran away laughing about what they had done.I pulled the boy up off the ground and helped him back to his house which was about two blocks down the street from the school building.When we reached his home his sister told me that her brother was deaf but that he was not dumb like the two bullies said.That he was very smart but could not say or hear anything.I told her that he did make a sound when the bully kicked him in the back.She told me that I must be mistaken because all her brothers vocal cords had been removed during an eXperimental surgery， which had failed.The boy made one of those hand signs at me as I was about to leave.I asked his sister _if your brother is so smart then why is he doing things like that with his hands?_ She told me that he was saying that he loved me with his hands.I didnt say anything back to her at all because I didnt believe her.People cant talk with their hands and everybody knows that.People can only talk with their mouth.Almost every Sunday for the neXt year or two I could see the boy through the chain-link fence as we ate watermelon outside behind the dining room， during the summer time.He always made that same funny hand sign at me and I would just wave back at him， not knowing what else to do.On my very last day in the orphanage I was being chased bythe police.They told me that I was being sent off to the Florida School for Boys Reform School， at Marianna so I ran to get away from them.They chased me around the dining room building several times and finally I made a dash for the chain-link fence and tried to climb over in order to escape.I saw the deaf boy sitting there on his porch just looking at me as they pulled me down from the fence and handcuffed me.The boy， now about twelve jumped up and ran across San Diego Road， placed his fingers through the chain-link fence and just stood there looking at us.They dragged me by my legs， screaming and yelling for more than several hundred yards through the dirt and pine-straw to the waiting police car.All I could hear the entire time was the high pitched sound of that whale being harpooned again.As we pulled away in the police car I saw the deaf boy loosen his grip on the fence and slide very slowly to the ground and lower his head into the leaves and pine straw.That is when I realized that he probably really did love me and he wanted to save me because he thought that I too was making the whale sound.英语文章阅读理解范文第二篇Most people usually traveled by ship and train which are driven by steam engine.It played an important part in many kindsof vehicles several scores of years ago.Who invented steam engine and what units could be used to measure the power of engine?The word “horse-power” was first used two hundred years ago.James Watt from a worker‟s family made the world first widely used steam engine.At first， he couldnt tell people how powerful it was， because there were no units at that time.Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute.He named that unit one horse-power.In this way he could measure the work of his steam engine.He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute.His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute.Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse， Watt called it a ten horse-power engine.英语文章阅读理解范文第三篇Thanks for your letter.Im glad you like your school.I go to school from Monday to Friday.We have five classes in the morning and two in the afternoon.And we have many subjects to learn: Chinese， math， English， .， science， biology， music，history and so on.We also have many things to do after class.On Monday and

me to go to the headmasters office.When I got into the office，I saw a police officer.Suddenly I realized somethingwas wrong.The police officer told me what had happened and we went to pick my sister up.After that，we went to the hospital and waited.Time went slowly.Finally，we got to see our mother.It was terrible.On the neXt day，the headmaster came and told my two teachers what had happened.I was taking a rest that day.I knew it had something to do with my mother.I kept thinking that she either died or had gotten better.How I wished that she had gotten better.When my teacher took me outside，my sister ran up to me.She started crying，Shes gone.Teresa，mommys gone.Shes dead.I couldnt believe it.We jumped into the car and drove straight to the hospital.Most of my family were there.The silence was terrible.I knew I had to say goodbye.Today when I look back，I still miss my mother very much，but I know that I will live.My mother was a strong mother，who had the biggest heart.My mother was an angel walking on the earth.I will always remember her as living.When someone is asked who their hero (英雄)is，they usually say someone famous，like Michael Jordan or Britney Spears.When someone asks me

英语阅读文章大全（五篇）1.英语阅读文章大全篇一I think smiling is as important as sunshine. Smiling is like sunsh ine because it can make people happy and have a good day. If you aren’t happy, you can smile, and then you will feel happy. Someone may say, “But I don’t feel happy.” Then I would say, “Pl ease smile as you do when you are happy or play with your friends happily. You will really be happy again.”Smiling can let you have more friends.So I say, smiling is like a flower. It will give you happiness.微笑我认为微笑是一样重要的像阳光。

微笑是象阳光，因为它可能使人愉快和有一个早晨好。

如果您不是愉快的，您能微笑，您然后将感觉愉快。

某人也许说，“但是我不感到愉快”。

然后我会说，“请微笑，您，当您愉快地是愉快或戏剧与您的朋友。

您真正地再将是愉快的”。

微笑可能让您有更多朋友。

如此我说，微笑是象花。

Day1 The Old, The Old Wine陈年老酒Once there lived a rich man who was justly proud of his cellar and the wine therein. And there was one jug of ancient vintage kept for some occasion known only to himself.从前，有个富翁，不无理由地以他的酒窖和窖藏美酒自豪。

其中有一瓶远年陈葡萄酒，是他珍藏着留作盛会用的，究竟是什么盛会，可只有他自己知道。

The governor of the state visited him, and he bethought him and said, "That jug shall not be opened for a mere governor."地方官来拜访他，他心中寻思道："不过是地方官罢了，不必为他开这瓶酒。

"And a bishop of the diocese visited him, but he said to himself, "Nay, I will not open that jug.He would not know its value, nor would its aroma reach his nostrils."教区的主教来拜访他，可他跟自己说道："不，我不愿为他开这瓶酒。

他不会懂得这酒的价值，这酒的香味地也闻不出来。

"The prince of the realm came and supped with him. But he thought, "It is too royal a wine for a mere princeling."王国的王子来临，和他一同进餐。

Winning the lottery …is it a dream come true?1. Most people have found themselves daydreaming about winning a million dollars —as a solution to their money problems or as a path to happiness and a life of luxury. As more and more states set up lottery games, more and more people rush to buy a ticket and a dream. The states view lotteries as a way to make money, since only about half of what they take in is given back as prize money. The prize is usually broken down into as many as twenty smaller, yearly payments instead of one huge payment. 2. Because there are so many types of lottery games, and they all have winners, it can seem like a very easy thing to win —especially in those rare cases where someone has won more than one one game. game. game. But But But in in in reality, reality, reality, the the the odds odds odds of of of winning winning winning the the the lottery lottery lottery are are are very very very small. small. small. In In In fact, fact, fact, you you you are are are more more likely to be struck by lightning than to become an instant millionaire. 3. 3. But But But what what what about about about those those those lucky lucky lucky few few few who who who do do do win? win? win? Have Have Have they they they achieved achieved achieved the the the American American dream dream——are they on easy street? It’s fun to picture these winners quit ting their jobs, going on a wild shopping spree, and spending a lifetime traveling around the world. But according to a survey, most people who win keep their jobs, stay in their neighborhoods and keep the same friends, and they’re careful about how they s pend their money. 4. When Christene Cooper won $19 million in the California lottery, she was a 20-year-old student working two jobs. According to Christene, “Winning was pretty unbelievable; it changes so so much much much in in in your your your life.” life.” life.” Because Because Because they they they were were were able able able to to to affo affo afford rd rd to to to live live live on on on their their their own, own, own, she and she and her her high high school sweetheart got married. They went to Disney World on their honeymoon, and they bought a BMW convertible, a truck, and a yacht. She bought houses for relatives and set up a trust fund for her sister. 5. But for Gloria Mitchem, winning the Florida lottery prize of $37.4 million was more of a problem than a blessing. She was living in a small town and working in a nursing home when she found found out out out she she she was was was a a a winner. winner. winner. By By By the the the next next next day, day, day, crowds crowds crowds of of people people and and and reporters reporters reporters were were were outside outside outside her her home. home. She She She needed a needed a police escort to to take take take her her her to claim to claim the the prize. prize. prize. Then, Then, Then, after after after a a a press press press conference conference when when relatives relatives relatives mentioned mentioned mentioned that that that they’d they’d like like to to to buy buy buy a a a fancy fancy fancy car, car, car, automobile automobile automobile salesmen salesmen salesmen started started hounding her along with the press. Finally she quit her job, took her child out of day care, and left town. She refuses to speak to reporters, and only her family and a few close friends know where she now lives. 6. Even the lottery agencies recognize that winning can open the door to worry as well as happiness. They advise winners to at least get new phone numbers if they can’t move. They also recommend getting a good lawyer and financial adviser. To win the lottery you only need luck, but to manage the changes in your life that come with the jackpot, you need lots of planning and good advice. 1.

Teaching your children how to say sorry 1. If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky （需要技巧的）. 2. If you say to your children “I’m sorry I got angry with you, but …” what follows that “but” would be “I had a bad day” or “your noise was giving me a headache”“I had a bad day” or “your noise was giving me a headache”. This can make the apology ineffective and leaves the person feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior before he gets an apology from you. 3. Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say, “I’m sorry you’re upset”. This suggests that you are somehow at fault （过错）for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done. 4. Then there is the general, all covering apology, which is vague （含糊的）（含糊的） and ineffective, like saying “I’m useless as a parent”“I’m useless as a parent”. 5. These pseudo-apologies （伪道歉）（伪道歉）（伪道歉） are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness, while parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not use these pseudo-apologies. 6. But when parents teach their children how to say sorry, the ages of their children should also also be be be taken taken taken into into into account account account and and and parents parents parents should should should let let let their their their children children children aware aware aware of of of the the the complexities complexities complexities of of apologizing. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he he does, does, does, and and and that that that hitting hitting hitting a a a playmate playmate playmate over over over the the the head head head with with with a a a heavy heavy heavy toy toy toy requires requires requires an an an apology. apology. apology. A A six-year-six-year-old old old might might might need need need reminding reminding reminding that that that spoiling spoiling spoiling other other other children’s children’s children’s expectations expectations expectations can can can require require require an an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that raiding （袭击） the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent’s clothes without permission is not. 1. If a mother adds “but” to an apology, ________. (D) A. she doesn’t feel that she should have apologizedB. she does not realize that the child has been hurt C. the child may find the apology easier to accept D. the child may feel that he owes her an apology 2. According to the author, saying “I’m sorry you’re upset” most probably means_______. (B) A. You have good reason to get upset B. I’m aware you’re upset, but I’m not to blameC. I apologize for hurting your feelings D. I’m at fault for making you upset3. It is not advisable to use the general, all-covering apology because______. (C) A. it gets one into the habit of making empty promises B. it may make the other person feel guilty 。

So much of what we do today is frivolous and futile and soon forgotten. So much of what we hope to do tomorrow never happens. The past is the bank in which we store our most valuable possession: the memories that give meaning and depth to our lives. Those who truly treasure the past will not bemoan the passing of the good old days, because days enshrined in memory are never lost. Death itself is powerless to still a remembered voice or erase a remembered smile. And for one boy who is now a man, there is a pond which neither time nor tide can change, where he can still spend a quiet hour in the sun. ⼀些⼈坚持认为只有今⽇与明⽇最重要。

If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this,“I’m afraid it’ll have to besomeplace cheap, as I have very little money." The other person may say,“OK, I’ll meet youat McDonald’s."This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say,“Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Smith’s," or“I want you to try the Chinesedumplings there. They’re great." This means the person wants to pay for both of you.
