“Who did this?” asked my teacher. Thirty children tried to think about not only what they had done, but also what our teacher might have found out.

“Who did this?” she asked again. She wasn’t really asking, she was demanding an answer. She never became angry, but she was this time. She held up a piece of broken glass and asked, “Who broke this window?”

“Oh, oh,” I thought. I was the one who broke the window. I did not do it on purpose. It was caused by a bad throw of a baseball. Why did it have to be me?

If I admitted it, I would be in a lot of trouble. How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? “My father is going to get mad at me,” I thought. I didn’t want to raise my hand, but some force much stronger than me pulled it up. “I did it.” Then I was silent. It was hard enough saying what I had.

My teacher went to one of our library shelves and took down a book. She then began walking towards my desk. I had never known my teacher to strike (打) a student, but I feared she was going to start with me.

“I know how you like birds, Henry.” She said as she stood looking down at my face. “Here is that field guide about birds that you are always checking out. It is yours. We got a new one for the school anyway. You will not be punished. But remember, it’s only for your truthfulness.”

I couldn’t believe it! I wasn’t being punished and I was getting my very own bird field guide. The very one that I had been saving up all my money to buy.

Many Chinese people like American country music, such as the songs of John Denver. But still some people don’t know when country music began.

Country music is from the folk music(民间音乐)of the Appalachian Mountains in the east of America. There, people sang while playing the violin and guitar. They sang about everyday life, love and their problems. So the songs were sometimes a little sad.

One of the most popular country music singers is John Denver, who is also quite famous to the Chinese. For Denver, music was a language that could bring the world together. He says music can bring people together. We will understand each other better through music. People are different in colors and they may speak different languages, but people are the same in mind and body. All of them love music and can understand music.

The world lost a great man when John Denver died in 1997. But his music and words will live on.

Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”? It is easy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs, some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano or any other musical instrument, if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You can even use a radio.

Put the chairs in a row. The chairs may be put in twos, back to back. A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.

The game is easy. When the music starts, the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction, of course, they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk quickly. If the music is slow, they should walk slowly.

The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops, the players try to sit on the chairs. If a person cannot find a chair to sit on, he drops out. Then, before the music starts again, one chair must be taken away. When the music stops again, one more player will be out.

At last, there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.

48. If ten people are playing musical chairs, you must begin with _______.

A. nine chairs　　　 B. ten chairs 　　　C. eleven chairs　　　 D. one chair

49. The chairs should be put _______.

A. with the desks 　　　　　B. before the winner

C. all over the room　　　　D. in a line

50. When the music starts, the players must _______.
