I’m Bolivia Williams, a students at Bard College. I was the only person in my family who was Facebook friends with my mom, Rynn, when she died four years ago. At that time, my brother and sister were still young. As soon as we got the news that she died, I thought it would be an easy way to let everyone know what happened. Right after I posted the news, so many people offered their help and shared stories about her.
I like to visit my mom’s page to tell her things that I’m doing and I like to look at her pictures there. I sing with the Brooklyn Youth Chorus（合唱团），and we did a concert for the tenth anniversary （周年纪念日）of 9/11，which was also my mom’s birthday. It was an unforgettable day. I posted, “You will be proud（自豪）of me—I will sing at the site of the World Trade Center tomorrow. I know you will be looking down, smiling. ”When I’m writing to her, it feels like I’m still here.
In the beginning, I wasn’t sure how to face my mom’s death. But I’ve grown up now. I haven’t been on my mom’s page for a month, but I would miss it if it were gone. Her page allows me to think that she’s still here.
I used to go to my mom’s page to look at her pictures, which would make me feel really sad, Now, when I visit it, I smile more often than cry.

Welcome to My Blog Stephen Williams
June 21 Friday
Today I went to the beach. It was my first day at the ocean for many years. The sound and smell of the ocean brought back memories of the great family vacations when I was a child. We always went to the beach for a week in the summer. I remembered playing for hours in the sand with my sister and crying when I couldn't have any ice cream. Oh, and I remembered finding a huge jellyfish on the beach, and running away because I was scared! Amazing, really, the things you remember from your childhood…
Comments
Yeah, I remember going for long walks in the countryside. I guess I was only eight or nine. In the winter, my mom made soup, and I can still remember the wonderful smell! When we got home, I always went straight to sleep...
Carla,
Mexico
What a great story! I remember going to the beach, too—on Christmas Day! My family lived in Australia when I was young. I remember waking up early. After we opened our presents, we always went to the beach and had a barbecue.
Leung,
Hong Kong
The best memory I have is playing my first video game, Super Mario. I remember thinking that it was amazing. It was my tenth birthday and I still remember opening the box.
Daisuke,
Japan
根据短文内容，完成下列小题。
1.Was it the first time for Stephen to go to the beach on June 21?
________________________________________________________________________________

A young college student thought that he chose the wrong major at a common college so he drank every day and didn't study at all. He became more and more frustrated. But he was never absent from Professor Yang's biology class. He liked the course. Besides，Yang's class was so interesting that he always listened carefully, never caring about whether the other students were paying attention or not in class. Once he put a note in the homework he handed in，saying："Professor, it is said that today's college students are cheaper than potatoes. Do you agree?"
That day Professor Yang sent for him after class. When he came，he found the professor at a table with a plate of food. They drank happily with their meal. When they became half drunk, the professor produced a small potato that was sprouting. "Do you know how much this costs?" he asked the young man. "It's soft but poisonous. Nobody will take it even if it's free." He then threw the potato away. The professor then showed him another potato. It was half the size of a football and perfectly round. "This potato is organic. It is not only large and fresh but also free of pollution. It is in high demand and quite expensive. " The young man was impressed by what he'd heard. " Be such a potato,"said the professor.
