Wang Ling, a middle school girl, felt angry with her parents after getting a boy’s phone call. “A classmate called me to discuss homework. We talked 1 just a few minutes before my parents got mad,” said the girl. “They asked whether I liked the boy. I said I didn’t 2 they wouldn’t believe me.”
Wang’s trouble is not strange at all because puppy love (早恋) becomes a big headache for 3 parents and schools. They worry that puppy love will be bad for 4 . Her school makes it a rule not to allow any talk or any physical contact (身体接触) 5 one boy and one girl alone.

As a boy, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather's farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to tidy living rooms that seemed to whisper, "Not to be touched!"
I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never  approve. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and falling. Still, I entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
"I, uh-I wanna climb the stone walls," I said. Everyone looked up. "Can I climb the stone walls?   Immediately voices of disagreement went up from the women in the room." Heavens, no! You'll hurt yourself!" I wasn't too surprised; the response was just as I'd expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather's 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, "come and see me when you get back." For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls  and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I'll never forget what he said. "Fred", he said, smiling, "You made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, here's only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are."
Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers Neighborhood, 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. "There's only one person in this whole world like you," the kids can count on hearing me say, "and people can like you exactly as you are."

For most children, the most useful way of spending their time is playing a game. It doesn’t matter 1 the game is. Things become better when they need a (n) 2 to play with. On the one hand, it is quite 3 for the development of a child’s personality (个性) to win and to 4 the best ways to get that.

In a word, playing a game is not funny only when you win. It is funny 9 you enjoy it and try your best to win. If you are just a little bit unlucky, don’t 10 a lot. You will surely prove your abilities some other day.
