Your Passport(护照) Please!

Mr. Hill arrives at London Airport at the end of a three-week holiday in France. Usually he wears a beard(留胡须). Since it has been hot there, he has taken it off(剃掉). But his passport photo shows him with his beard.

An office looks at the photo for a moment and says: "Will you excuse me? Please sit down. I won’t keep you long." With this, he walks away, shows the photo to a second office and says: "I know that face." The second officer looks at the passport and asks where Mr. Hill has come from. When he hears that Mr. Hill has arrived back from Paris, the second officer smiled and says: "An Englishman with a beard stole a painting in Paris on Friday, and that man just looks the kind of man ..."

Suddenly it comes to the first officer who Mr. Hill is. He returns to him and asks: "Did you teach at the No.2 . High School?" When Mr. Hill answers in surprise that he did, the first officer smiles and says: "I thought so. I'm Jack Smith. You taught me French. You haven't changed a bit."

Helping your children to read and write at home will improve your children’s skills and confidence — it will also make them learn better in the classroom environment.
Reading and writing skills are needed by every child in every subject in every year of their school life and outside school. As parents, you can play an important role in improving your children’s literacy (读写能力) by practicing reading, writing, spelling and speaking with them outside school.
By listening, asking questions, giving information, and reading with your children outside school — you can make a difference. Students who improve their reading and writing will increase their vocabulary and their ability to use English correctly.
Here’s some advice on how to help your children to read, write and spell:
● reading aloud each night
● letting children take part in everyday conversations
● listening to your children read
● reading your children’s writing
● using a dictionary
● encouraging your children to talk about funny things
● trying not to ask questions that require “yes” or “no” answers
● Practicing reading and writing by filling in forms, writing letters, sending cards or e-mails.

What’s your 2022?

Thomas I’m not very sure what I will be in ten years. Maybe a cook or a film director(导演). But I can tell you what I’ll be doing next week—having a birthday party with my friends.

Emma There is one thing I really want to do and that is to travel around the world. Hope I will be living somewhere different in ten years, like Australia or maybe Japan—who knows? I’d like to be a teacher and I think it must be great fun to teach English.

Ken When I was young I always said I wanted to be a doctor and that hasn’t changed. I will study medicine (医学) after I finish school. It will be hard work, but it’s my dream. So in ten years I hope I will either be working in a hospital or as a doctor with my own surgery (诊疗室).

Mary I’m not really sure about the future. I’m interested in the environment (环境), so I’ll probably be working as a scientist and helping make a greener world or something like that.
