【題目】Daughter’s final song for father

By Xu Lingyi, 13, Mercy High School, US

What is the most surprising thing in summer? A seaside vacation? Some good family time? Or a song that changes your whole life? These all happened to Ronnie, the main character of the book The Last Song (2009). It was written by United States author Nicholas Sparks.

Since Ronnie’s parents divorced (離婚) when she was 14, she had been staying with her mom in New York. Her father, who used to be her piano teacher, lived alone in North Carolina. She was so angry with her dad that she had not talked with him or played the piano ever since they divorced. However, the summer before she turned 18, her mom sent her to North Carolina. At first, Ronnie was frustrated about it. But things changed when her dad found some turtle (海龜) eggs. She learned more about the turtles at the local aquarium (水族館) and set up a cage to protect the eggs.

The turtle broke the tough（堅(jiān)固的）wall between Ronnie and her dad. However, it was on the day the eggs hatched（孵化）that Ronnie found out her dad was dying of cancer. That was why her mom asked her to visit him. Ronnie was very upset. She started playing the piano again and wrote a song for him before he died. Ronnie deeply impressed me. Though she looks rebellious (叛逆的) in the book, she is gentle. She even slept outside the whole night just to protect the turtle eggs. She loves her father.

【題目】Bblythe was doing a school project on children’s rights. She decided to surf the Internet for some information. Here is what she has found.

The United Nations lists the rights of children. Most countries agree with all of them, but some countries don’t. The following are some of the most important rights of children:

Children have the right to be properly fed, clothed and looked after by their family. If their family cannot do so, the government should take responsibility.

Children have the right to get education, development and medical care, which should be provided by the government.

Children mustn’t be tortured by their parents or others. They have had self-respect(自尊心).

Children have the right to expect the government to protect them from all kinds of hurt and neglect(疏忽).

No child under fifteen should be made to fight as a solider.

Children have the right to be protected from being made to work too hard to make money for other people.

In some countries children don’t have these rights. Many young children are made to work long hours in factories and on farms. In some countries there are so few schools that only rich children can get education. There aren’t enough doctors or nurses to help children when they’re sick, either.

Li Hua: When I hang out with American friends, I'm always afraid to speak. I feel like they will laugh at my accent(口音). What can I do, Professor Lee?

Professor Lee: It's a good question! This is a typical problem among you students. First, it's Ok to speak English with an accent. It shows who you are and where you're from. English is an international language. English speakers from the US, the UK, Australia, and South Africa all have different accents. In fact, correct grammar and word choice are much more important. Second, most foreigners are friendly and will not laugh at you. So just relax and be yourself. I always tell my students, Don t be shy. Just try!" If you have a chance, take it. Finally, failure is the best teacher. As the saying goes, “Failure is the mother of success. "Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time, found the secret to success. He said, "I've failed over and over again in my life. And that's why I succeed.”

【1】Li Hua tells Professor Lee about his worry
