15 years spent in the field of education has provided me with treasured moments. One of the most priceless happened when I was teaching second grade, 10 years ago.
In May of the fourth quarter, I decided to _______ something special for the children: A Mother’s Day tea. We put our _______ together to come up with ideas of how to _______ our mothers. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. Each child took home an invitation and I was _______ to see that every mother was planning to attend. I even invited my own mother.
Finally the _______ day arrived. At 1:45 that afternoon, each child lined up at our classroom waiting for the _______ of his or her mom. As it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t _______ and he was looking anxious.
I took my _______ by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said. “I have a bit of problem here and I was wondering if you could _______. I’m going to be really busy. I was wondering if you could keep my mother company while I’m busy.”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table with two other mother-and-child ________. Jimmy served my mom her treats, presented her with the gifts I had made, and pulled out and pushed in her chair, just as we had practised the day before. ________ I looked over, my mom and Jimmy were in ________ conversation.
Now, 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I was at a high school to ________ a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. When Jimmy made sure we were the last two, he said, “Remember our Mother’s Day ________ we had in second grade? Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too. No one knew my mom didn’t make it!” I ________ my work with a hug from a teenage boy who had probably stopped hugging teachers years ago.

American public education has changed in recent years. One change is that increasing numbers of American parents and teachers are starting independent public schools called charter schools.
In 1991, there were no charter schools in the United States. Today, more than 2300 charter schools operate in 34 states and the District of Columbia. 575000 students attend these schools. The students are from 5 years of age through 18 or older.
A charter school is created by groups of parents, teachers and community members. It is similar in some ways to a traditional public school. It receives tax money to operate a number of students. The charter school must prove to local or state governments that its students are learning. These governments provide the school with the agreement, or charter that permits it to operate.
Unlike a traditional public school, however, the charter school does not have to obey most laws governing public schools. Local, state or federal governments cannot tell it what to teach.
Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach those goals. Class sizes are usually smaller than in many traditional public schools. Many students and parents say teachers in charter schools can be more creative.
However, state education agencies, local education-governing committees and unions often oppose charter schools. They say these schools may receive money badly needed by traditional public schools. Experts say some charter schools are doing well while others are struggling.
Congress provided 200 million dollars for establishing charter schools in the 2006 federal budget. But, often the schools say they lack enough money for programs. Many also lack needed space. District officials say they have provided 14 former school buildings for charter education. Yet charter school supporters say officials should try harder to find more space.

83-year-old Antonio Vicente has spent the last four decades of his life fighting against the trend. As Brazilian landowners cut down rainforests to make room for profitable plantations（营利性的种植园）and cattle grounds, he struggled to bring the jungles of his childhood back to life.
“When I was a child, the peasants（农民）cut down the trees to make grasslands and charcoal, and the water dried up and did not come back,” he told the reporters, “I thought: ‘Water is valuable, no one makes water and the population will not stop growing. What is going to happen? We are going to run out of water.”
With only some donkeys and a small team of hired workers, Antonio Vicente set about bringing back the forest to his land. What started out as a weekend hobby soon became a permanent（永久的）way of life, and Antonio recalls often spending whole days and nights in his young jungle, surrounded by rats and foxes, and eating banana sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Over the last 40 years, he has planted an estimated 50,000 trees on his 31-hectare land, which now make up a small but unique area of rainforest, and a haven for wildlife.
As the forest grew, the water returned, and Antonio says that there are now over 20 water sources on his land that were no longer there when he bought it. Then the animals started making a home there. Today, the forest is alive with the sounds of birds and insects living there, and more species are settling in every year. “There are toucans（巨嘴鸟）, all kinds of birds, squirrels, lizards, and even the boars are returning,” 83-year-old Vicente says, “If you ask me who my family are, I would say all this right here, each one of these that I planted from a seed.”
1.What do we learn about the Brazilian peasants?
A. They wasted much water on farming.
B. They focused on short-term profit.
C. They cared much about the environment.
D. They relied heavily on rainforests for a living.
2.What used to be young Antonio’s biggest concern?
A. Overpopulation. B. Polluted water.
C. Loss of grasslands. D. Water shortage
3.What does the underlined word “haven” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. trap. B. Disaster.
C. Shelter D. Balance.
4.In the last paragraph, Antonio mainly expresses his ________.
A. affection for his forest B. thanks for his family
C. deep love for rare birds D. pride as a successful farmer
