“My mother has always encouraged(鼓励) me to come to school and study hard,” says 17-year-old Mary, a Grade 8 student in Rumbek, Southern Sudan.

Mary is one of just five girls in her class in Deng Nhial Primary School in Rumbek among 141 boys. But Mary’s mother decides to see her daughter finish her schooling, because she did not get an education(教育) herself. Mary said, “My mother once told me that when she was younger, she wanted to go to school, but her parents wished her to get married to my father.”

Mary is the oldest child in her family. Her two younger brothers also go to school at Deng Nhial. Many of the girls who joined her in primary school seven years ago have left school. Many are now married and have children.

In Southern Sudan, it is estimated(估算) that nearly half of school-age children do not have basic(基本) conditions(条件) for learning. A girl in Southern Sudan was more likely to die at childbirth than to finish primary school.

According to a recent study on barriers to a girl’s education, traditional(传统的) culture(文化) is that main reason for girls to drop out of the school.

Now, the country and people will find some ways to change girls’ education chance(机会). Just as Mary said, “I wish other girls to come to school like me some day.” 47. Where does Mary come from? A. Sudan. B. India. C. Congo. D. America.

Going online is now a part of almost every teenager’s life. Do you really enjoy it and do you know the advantages(优点) and disadvantages of it? Today I’ll talk about going online.

The Internet can make our lives interesting and help us enjoy life more. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. It’s easier for us to get information on the Internet. Also when we send e-mails to our friends, they can get them at once. It can help us contact(联系) people across the world.

But some students spend too much time in playing computer games. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online, so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in the summer or winter holidays.
