Do you mind sharing your test scores with others?
On May 16, Guo Ruiting, 14, from Shenzhen Foreign Language School, had a big debate (辩论) with her classmates on this topic.
Guo believed that making the scores public would make students study harder. At first, she explained many theories (理论) that she had collected on the Internet. But they were too difficult to understand. So she was easily beaten by her opponent (对方) Du Xiaoshe.
“Publishing the results of our tests is bad for us,” said Du. He came to this conclusion (结论) after he failed his history exam one month ago. He thought it was just an accident. But he felt so hurt when his parents got a list of his marks. It also showed the marks of other students in his class. His experience seemed to have won over many students. But Guo‟s team didn‟t give up.
“Don‟t you forget the time when we all worked harder after knowing the average mark of Class 2?” asked Guo. “We‟d have never been so good if we didn‟t know how far we were behind. So it‟s good to know others‟ marks,” said Guo.
These words encouraged Du. He partly agreed with Guo‟s team. He thought it was good to show the average mark of each class but not individual(个人的) marks. This is the perfect way to respect their privacy (隐私) and make them work hard as well.
Such a conclusion won most of the students‟ minds.
“Sometimes we need to compromise (折中), both in a debate and in our life,” adde d Du.

Toronto police officer Mark Borsboom is famous on the Internet. A photo of him has been posted and shared on the Internet by many people.
The photo shows the officer is doing a simple, good thing—tying the shoelace (鞋带) of an old man.
Mark was on duty, helping cars leave the parking lot. As he was standing near the exit, an old man came near him. The man had no feeling in his hands because of a health problem. The old man had a long way to walk to meet his son, and his shoe had become loose (松的).
He asked Mark if he would mind tying his shoelace for him. “I didn‟t think anything of it—I said …sure‟ and tied his shoelace. I didn‟t know someone had photographed it.”
The photographer was Jason Cassidy who happened to be passing by when he saw the act of kindness. Jason posted the photo on the Internet and it quickly became popular.
In fact, Mark has done many more interesting and dangerous things for his work. His normal job is catching criminals. On one hot day he spent hours sweating in a van (在小货车里淌汗). He described the task as “a million times harder (than helping someone to tie his shoelace).”

四. 任务型阅读（10分）
I decided to meet my sponsored (被资助的) child, 12-year-old Natacha Etienne. She survived (幸存) the earthquake in Haiti. After a two-hour drive, I found myself in a beautiful place where Natacha‟s family live.
When I first saw Natacha, waiting in her best clothes, I felt like giving her a hug (拥抱), but I didn‟t. She had never seen me before. With half of the villagers gathering to look at me, Natacha stood back, silent and shy.
When I pulled out photos, hand-written messages and drawings I‟d received from Natacha, her shyness was gone and she began to talk to me. Her parents greeted me with warm hugs and nervous smiles.
Her parents thanked me repeatedly for coming. Her father opened some drinks, and we drank and talked. I learnt that their only plan was to get all their eight children educated, so they could get a chance to leave Haiti. “You are like another mother for Natacha,” they said. “You pay fo r her education and we are really thankful to you.”
I took part in the sponsor activity, hoping it could help children like Natacha have a chance to go to school. I believe my little contribution (捐助) will change their lives. Now I realize that writing letters and sending photos are of great importance to Natacha, because they are all small gifts sent with great love.
