The workers
who brought the girl to the orphanage
(
孤儿院
) knew little about her.
The streets where they found her had
been her home for many years. Her parents were
unknown. They left her long ago. At the
orphanage, the girl, like all the children there,
was
taught to read and write. While she
was studying at the orphanage, she learned
something
else to be
independent(
独立
). At twenty -
one, she left the orphanage and began work as a
secretary(
秘书
).
And then, in 1975, while she was still working as
an ordinary secretary,
something
special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong
competition and won it. This
was the
turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary
Cheung, was known to everybody.
Mary entered the competition because'
she wanted to show that orphanage girls could
be something. Winning the competition
gave her the chance to start a new life. This led
her
first into television and then into
business as a manager. When she was working as a
manager, she had trouble with her
reports. “My English just wasn’t good enough.” she
says.
Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who
later became her husband) to help her.
Mary studied
management(
管理
) at Hong Kong
Polytechnic and graduated in 1980.
She
started her own business in 1985. But she did not
stop developing herself. She then
studied at the University of Hong Kong.
Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on
photography(
摄影
).
She has held several exhibitions of her work in
many places --China,
New Zealand and
Paris. She still found time, however, to work on
TV
, write for newspapers
and
bring up her family.

has come a long way, but her journey is not
finished yet.

J.K.
Rowling is the writer of Harry Potter, which is
now one of the best-sellers in the
world.
J.K.
Rowling was born in Bristol on July 31st, 1965.
She has one sister who is two years
younger than her. Both girls loved
listening to their father reading bedtime stories
to them.
They especially loved stories
about magical worlds. Rowling wrote her first
story, called
Rabbit, at the age of
six.
After she graduated
from the university, Rowling worked as a
translator in London.
During this time,
on a long train trip in the summer of 1990, the
idea came to her of a boy
who has magic
but doesn't know it. In 1992 Rowling began to
teach English. She lived with
her baby
daughter, Jessica, and spent much time finishing
the first Harry Potter book for
young
readers. It appeared in June 1997. To her
surprise, the book was greatly successful.
The film came out in November 2001. Now
Harry Potter series is popular with people of all
ages and about 60 million books were
sold in 200 countries.
Why
has the series been so successful? There are a few
things. Many other magical
stories take
place in far away lands or in past or future
times. But Harry lives in modern
England. He's also a very normal boy:
polite, friendly, brave and clever. So when other
children read about Harry, they can
imagine being like him.
J.K. Rowing is very happy with the
success, and she is now busy finishing the whole
series of seven books. She's writing
full time and she's really enjoying life. She says
she will
go on living a normal life

New rules and behaviour
standards
(行为规范)
for middle
school students came out in
March
Middle school is going to use a new way to decide
who the top students are, The best
students won't only have high marks.
They will also be kids who don't
dye
(染)
their hair,
smoke or drink. The following are some
of the new rules.
Tell the
truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work on
an exam? Don't do it again!
That's not
something an
honest
(诚实的)
student should
do. If you have played computer
games
for two hours in your room, don't tell your
parents you have done homework.
Do more at school, Good students love
animals and care for other people. April is
Bird-Loving Month in China. Is your
school doing anything to celebrate? You should
join!
That way, you can learn more
about animals and how to protect them. When more
people
work together, it makes it more
fun for everyone.
Have you
ever quarreled with your teammates when your
basketball team lost? Only
working
together can make your team stronger. Be friendly
to the people you are with. Try
to
think of others. not only yourself.
Be open to new ideas. Have you ever
thought that people could live on the moon?
Maybe you'll discover Earth II someday.
Don't look down on new ideas. Everyone's ideas
are important. You should welcome them,
because new ideas make life better for everyone.
Protect yourself. Has
someone ever taken money from one of your
classmates? Don't let
it happen to you.
If you have to go home late, you should let your
parents know.
Use the
Internet carefully. The Internet can be very
useful for your studies. But some
things on the Internet aren't for kids,
so try to look at Web pages that are good for you.
You
can use the Web for fun or
homework. Can't you find any good Web sites for
children? Here
are some:
.
1. The school new rules will help kids
by telling them ______.
A.
how they can study well
B.
what they should do at school
C. what is right and what is wrong
D.
how they can protect themselves
2. According to the passage, which of
the following is not true?

out.

even when you are wrong.
