Then, she started talking about cakes and Thursday after school and I said sure, cakes were great. I was trying to get my maths homework down because Raj was waiting for me next door. Then, the lady said something about the principal and I said, “Sure, I know,” because everyone knows the principal. Finally, she stopped talking and said, “Okay?”

I said, “Okay.” Then, I remembered to say, “Thank you for calling.” Just like Mom taught me. Then, I hang up, finished my math, and headed for Raj’s house.

I didn’t remember the call until the next morning at breakfast. “Oh, you had a call yesterday when you were out mowing the lawn, Mom.”

“Oh? Who was it, Kyle?” she said, between toast bites.

Uhhh. Think, think. “It was about Thursday after school,” I said, announcing the only detail I could remember. “What about it?” Mom was getting a little prickly. I knew I had to deal with this well.

“There’s a bake sale. The principal was asking for stuff（东西）.” I felt good about remembering the principal.

Well, to make a long story short, it was the president of the PTO who called. Mom said she’s very important. She was asking if Mom could bake a cake for the principle because they were going to surprise him for his birthday.

八、阅读回答问题

Reading is a wonderful habit to develop. It is a great thing to do when you are bored. Here are some ways to develop the habit.

Start by reading a few minutes every day. Read every day, even if it is just for 10 minutes. Read when you get up early or before you go to bed. If you can, read at the same time every day. This will make your brain regard it as “reading time”.

Read what you are interested in. Reading can be a trouble if you do not like the book. Reading books that you enjoy will help you stick to (坚持) your habit and become a reader. Once you have great interest in it, it’s hard to put a book down.

Carry a book everywhere. Books can be heavy and big, which used to make it hard to read everywhere. Now you can read books on a smartphone. When you are waiting for a bus or waiting in line at a store, open your book app and read. If you cannot read on an app, find a book that is easy to carry with you.

Set a reading goal. A goal is something you are trying to achieve. Maybe your goal will be to read 5 or 10 books this year, or you even try to read 100. Setting a goal will remind you to read every day. Reaching it will make you feel good and make reading even more fun.

54．How often does the writer suggest readin? (不超过5个词)

__________________________________________________________________________________

55．What is the advantage for people to read books that they enjoy? (不超过15个词)

_______________________________________________________________________________

56．What will remind you to read every day? (不超过5个词)

___________________________________________________________________________

57．例文

We act, We improve

With the development of the society, to learn well is not the only thing a student should do. To be a civilized middle school student, I think we have lots of things to do.

First, we should be modest and easy to work with. Second, we should have good reading habits to improve ourselves. Third, we should learn to look after ourselves.

Moreover, we should form some good habits. We can save water by shortening the shower time. When we leave the room, we should turn off the lights.

In addition, caring for the weak is also the embodiment of civilization. We should call on the society to pay more attention to the disabled. It will have a great impact on ourselves and our society.

In a word, if we follow the advice, I’m sure that we will become civilized secondary school students and make the world a better place.
