My heart was in the right place, but I couldnt always follow the rules. I played many tricks on my schoolmates. Once I even pulled a girls hair on the school bus to get her attention. As a result, I was repeatedly sent to the office of the principal.Although I hated going there, I did not hate hate the principal. Mr. Ratcliff. Mr. Ratcliff was a kind, elderly man. When he spanked(打屁股)me for putting some ants into a classmates pencil box, it didnt hurt at all, but it did hurt my feelings. I thought so much of him and moments like that seemed to prove I was hopelessly bad.When I got called to Mr. Ratcliffs office for the sixth time, I had no idea what I had done. I felt disappointed as I walked down there. I went into his office, sat down, and looked at the floor. Then he said the last thing I expected to hear: “Kevin, Ive heard youve been behaving really well lately. I want you to know how proud I am of you, and I just called you down to my office to give you a peppermint.”“Really?” I was surprised.“Yes. Now you can take that peppermint and go back to class.”I carried the peppermint with me as if it was a gold coin. When I got into my classroom, I bragged(吹嘘)to my classmates about my turnaround, excitedly. I wasnt so bad after all.Mr. Ratcliff was really kind. He made me realize that I was just a kind who had problems with behavior. He bought some peppermints and took the time to notice me when I got something-anything-right. Mr. Ratcliff gave me some hope by giving me some love. I will just remember him for the rest of my life.31(2分)In his seventh grade, the writer _.Aalways followed the rulesBoften helped his classmatesChad problems behavingDhated the principal32(2分)How did the writer feel when he went to the principals office for the sixth time?ANervous.BExcited.CConfident.DUpset(失望的).33(2分)The sixth time the writer went to the principals office, he got _.Aa model busBa peppermintCa coinDa pencil box34(2分)The writer will always remember Mr. Ratcliff, because the principal _.Atalked with him in the officeBplayed games with himCexpected him to be a teacherDgave him some hope and love35(2分)Which statement is NOT true according to the text?AI didnt like the principal because he hurt my feelings.BI was really surprised when I heard what Mr. Ratcliff said to me.CThe principal helped me realize that I was not so bad after all.DMr. Ratcliff was very kind to his students.CCook with SuzzaneGarden Tour& Cooking Class909 North Cumbre Road, Santa Barara, CASaturday, October 24,2015.9:3.0am-1:00pmTraditionally, American Indians dishes were made with corn, beans, potatoes and pumpkin.
