My name is Linda. I was cute, active and happy—until that day when I was two years old. I had a bad fall and hurt one of my eyes. The doctor said that if the eye was taken out, my face would look worse, so my blind eye lives on with me.
People often ask me uncomfortable questions about my eye or even play jokes on me. When the kids played games, I was always the “bad guy”. Everyone looked down on me. Yet every time mom noticed I was unhappy, she would say to me, “Hold your head up high and face the world.” It helped me move on in life.

As a teenager I always looked down to hide my shame, but I found that people liked me when I held my head up high. In high school I was even made monitor. All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mom and she would look at me with loving eyes and say, “Hold your head up high and face the world.

J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (《哈利·波特与密室》) was published in July 1998.
American and British people both speak English. But there are a lot of differences in the ways they speak. J. K. Rowling made some changes for American kids in the Harry Potter books. For example, she used parking lot (停车场) instead of car park.
In October 1998, J. K. Rowling travelled to the United States for the first time to sell her books. At first, J. K. Rowling was worried that American children wouldn’t like her book as much as children in the United Kingdom did. But she was wrong. “When I did public readings,” she said, “they even all laughed in the same places as British children.”
J K. Rowling was surprised that many of the children had already read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The book wasn’t even published in the United States yet. They had ordered the book from England on the Internet because they couldn’t wait.
J. K. Rowling was more successful than she had ever dreamed. In the publishing world, no children’s books had ever been as popular as the Harry Potter books. Even popular children’s book writer Dr Seuss did not sell so many books.
When she returned to America, J. K. Rowling was met by, not just children, but crowds of adults. Why were so many adults reading a book written for children? It is because a really good story attracts people of all ages.
1.What language do American and British people both speak according to Paragraph 2?
