Passage 2
Just as I came back home. I heard a sound coming from the bedroom upstairs—it was from my favourite violin.
“Thief （小偷）！”
I rushed upstairs and saw a boy in dirty clothes pulling my violin down. At first sight, I found a new pair of shoes missing. It seemed he was surely a thief.
However, when I saw his eyes full of fear, my anger disappeared. I smiled and asked, “Are you Mr. Ram’s student Rubens? I’m his butler（男管家）. I’ve heard Mr. Ram say his student will come. It must be you.”
“Has my teacher gone out ?” the boy said, “I think I’d better visit him again in a while/”
I nodded and asked him, “Do you like playing the violin?”
“Yes, but I’m too poor to afford one.” the boy replied.
“Then, I’ll give you this violin.” The boy looked at me surprisingly, but he picked up the violin. While going out of the room, he suddenly saw a huge photo of me playing the violin at the Grand Theatre of Sydney on the wall. His face turned pale. He stood there for a moment and ran out. He must have understood what had happened because no master（主人）would put up the butler’s photo on the wall of his living room.
A few years later, at a music competition in Melbourne, I was invited to be the judge （评委）. Finally, a violin player called Merritt won the first prize.
After the prize-giving, Merritt ran to me holding a violin box, his face red, and asked, “Mr. Brian, do you still know me? You gave me the violin, which I have treasured ever since! Today, I want to say sorry and give back this violin to you without regret…”
He was just the “Mr. Ram’s student”!

Passage 3
If you need to call your parents but your phone is not with you, can you remember their numbers?
To remember 11 numbers is not difficult. However, because of the smartphone, many of us are losing this ability. What’s more, smartphones weaken（削弱）our skills at giving directions, as well as killing face-to-face communications. Even when friends are having a meal together, it’s common for most to check their phones.
According to a report by Kleiner Perkins Caufield Byers, an American company, Chinese people spend about 170 minutes on their smartphones daily.
Many students are addicted to using smartphones. It does no good to their study. Research by Japan’s Education Ministry showed children who spend more than four hours a day on their phones perform much worse in school test than those who play with their phones for 30 minutes.
It’s true that the smartphone has made our lives easier. But many also think they spend too much time on it, and this is bad for their study or work. People are trying to change that.
A new app（应用软件）called Forest was introduced this month. It lets users plant a seed that grows into a tree over the next 30 minutes. During t he half hour, users cannot use their phones, or the tree will die.
A restaurant in Los Angeles, US, gives people a 5% discount (折扣) if they don’t check their phones during a meal. Owner Mark Gold said he hopes it gives people a way to enjoy their meal and actually talk with friends and family in person.

Passage 4
Car pool（拼车）
“Beep, Beep,” goes the car horn（喇叭）. You’ve got dressed, but you’ve not had time to eat breakfast. You run out of the front door with your schoolbag, and jump into the waiting car. Inside, your friends say “hey” as one of their parents drives you to school. 38
Car pools are a common way of transport for many students in the US. You, along with many of your friends, can sit in one car. 39 And your parents many take turns to drive you all to school.
40 If you’re late, you can eat th at breakfast you don’t have time for at home. If you’re behind on your homework, this is your last chance to finish it before class. Some simply add to their sleep time before classes begin.
Besides walking or cycling to class, car pools are green if you can’t take the school bus. Instead of four cars taking four students to school each day, they can all squeeze into one. 41
More importantly, car pooling teaches students valuable life lessons not taught in class. It can teach students about being on time. It can also teach them the bad influence of being late. If you’re late, then all of your friends will be late too.
