As the old saying goes,"It takes a village to raise a child."This week,a Washington family found out how true that saying really is.
Five-year-old Asher is a student at Glenwood Heights Primary School.He is now taking a test t find out whether he has autism(自闭症），which can take more than a year.
Since he hasn’t been diagnosed(诊断）yet,his school can’t place him in special education classes.
"This school can't treat him as an autistic child.They can’t do all the different things that kids with that diagnosis can,”said Carpenter,Asher’s mom.
To add to her worries,Asher has difficulty in trying his shoelaces(鞋带）.
"Every day he would come home with his laces undone,and every single day I didn’t know what to do,’said Carpenter-
Then last Tuesday,Asher came home from school with something new on his feet.
"I looked down at his shoes and thought,'What are those?'Then I realized they are special laces,"said Carpenter.
Someone at school had replaced Asher’s shoelaces with special no-tie laces that make it easier for Asher to keep his shoes laced up.
"It touched me deeply,i started crying at once,”said Carpenter.
Then,she posted a photo of her son’s shoes,along with the story about them,to Facebook and it quickly spread.
Through the website,she was able to find out who was behind the mysterious (神秘的）laces:Asher’s school doctor,Carolyn Torricelli.
Torricelli said getting Asher the laces was almost natural and she thought nothing of it.She had no idea of the influence it would have on his family.
For Asher's mom,it means the world to her.
"I’m not the only one raising Asher;there are a lot of people raising him.To have somebody care that much is a beautiful thing,"said Carpenter.
()66.What can we learn about Asher?
A.He is treated badly at school.
B.He has left the school for a year.
C.He is now in a special education class.
D.His mother was worried about his life at school.
()67.What happened to Asher last Tuesday?
A.He threw his shoelaces away.
B.His shoes had special laces.
C.He could tie his shoelaces.
()69.What does the underlined word"\X."in the last but one paragraph refer to?
A.Torricelli’s help
B.Family influence
C.Raising Asher
D.Solving the mystery
()70.What’s the best title of the passage?
A.A great mother means a lot
B.A school doctor means a lot
C.Boy's shoelace trouble turns into act of kindness
D.Raising a child is difficult

My name is James, I'm fourteen, and T moved to this town with my family three months ago. My parents lived here when they were young. But my brother and 1 didn’t know anyone here. When T started school, my cousin Sophie, who was in my class, was very friendly to me for the first week and I was happy to have a friend in such a strange place. Then, for no reason, she stopped talking to me, and T felt very hurt and lonely for several weeks.
Later, I made some more friends and since I go to know them, I’ve been fine. Now Sophie is having a party for her birthday next Saturday and she has invited me. I don’t want to go. But my mom and dad say it would be rude to turn down the invitation. How can I show Sophie that she can't behave so badly towards me without causing a family argument?。
