W:
My name s Jade. I'm fifteen and an only child living with my parents in Porchester. Last autumn my
cousin Bettina came to live in our house. She's nineteen, and very pretty. She's staying with us while she's
a student at the university in Porchester. At first, I was very pleased to have another teenager in our
house, because most of my friends don't live near me, but recently my feelings have changed.
I have lots of homework because I m studying for school exams, but I have to clean my room and help
with the washing- up. Bettina doesn' t have exams this year so she doesn' t have to work so hard. She has
more money than me. She earns a bit because my dad helped her get a part-time job at the local
cinema. She doesn' t pay the full price for tickets to see films there. And although she doesn't pay my
parents to live in our house, they don't make her help in the house like I have to.
When I mentioned this to my parents they reminded me that we have to be kind to Bettina because her
dad hasn't been well for a long time. I agree with that but there is a problem. I know Bettina tells lies to my
parents. Two days ago she asked my mum to lend her some money. She said she needed to buy some books,
but she spent it all on CDs.
I asked my parents if they knew what she had done, but they didn't believe me. This worries me a
lot. I don't know what I should do now.

Kids with cerebral palsy(脑瘫) join race
Thanks to the efforts of some high school student athletes, who helped the physically challenged, the
smiles on the faces of 9-year-old Lucas Myrick and 8-year-old Elsa Dent were a little bit brighter.
Lucas and Elsa had cerebral palsy(脑瘫), a condition that limited their physical ability, and couldn’t
walk as fast as their peers who were free to walk everywhere. However, they had bright spirits and always
held positive attitudes towards adversity and life in all aspects. Impressively, they participated in the Park
Lane Elementary School’s annual Fun Run. They wanted to demonstrate that they could participate in the
race as the normal kids at school. They were convinced that they could fight prejudice against the disabled
in their own way.
When Lucas’ mother, Janell, mentioned their passion for the Fun Run to the athletic director of the
school, he was more than delighted to assist them in taking part. At last, two members of the high school
team showed up to push Lucas in his wheelchair. It was not just the football team that turned up to support
