I’m sorry that I have to write this letter, but if I 19, you’ll never see what your problem is.

I have to say the steak was delicious, but it was still wrong to keep people waiting for so long.

Gisele: My dad’s taking me to play the Dye-Out game this Saturday. He asked if you would like to come.

Opal: 22.

Gisele: It’s a popular game these days. The game is played by two teams and can be played inside or outside. You win the game by taking the other team’s castle or “killing” all the players on the other team.

Opal: 23?

Gisele: You use balls filled with oil paint to attack the players on the other team. Their clothes will be covered with paint when they are hit by the balls. This way, they are “killed” and have to leave the playground.

Opal: Sounds exciting.

Gisele: It is, but 24. For example, you have to buy the clothes, the balls, the masks, and many other things. Also, it can be dangerous sometimes.

Opal: Well, then I have to ask my parents first.

Sarah: Hey, try this! It took me two hours to buy the cheesecake.

Justin: Why two hours? The store is only one block away from your place.

Sarah: I know! But the line was terribly long, and a man behind me was trying to cut in. So I took some time to “take care of” him.

Justin: You hit him?

Sarah: Please! I’m a friendly, sweet lady! I just talked to him, well, maybe a little loudly. And … I used some words that were a little strong. When I was “talking” to the man. I didn’t know I was off the line. So I had to wait all over again!

Dear Aunt Tara,

I have a problem with my homework. We have to do It in a group. It has to be finished this Friday, but Gary, the boy in our group, has done nothing helpful. He just keeps rocking the boat.

Every time we talk about the work with him, he always says, “Don’t worry. I’ll do it later.” But he seldom does his job. And when he does, he does it the wrong way. Someone has to do it for him again. What’s worse is when Ms. Lin asks about our group, Gary always tells her that we others don’t work hard enough. I’m really mad at Gary about this. We’re in the same group. Shouldn’t we help each other to do a better job?

Kate

Dear Kate:

It is important for students to learn how to work together in a group. Maybe you should talk to Gary about the problem and tell him you all need his help. If he still doesn’t change, go talk to your teacher. I believe she can make Gary do his job.

In the art world, many artists with “weak” bodies have shown us a “strong” power in their great works of art. Take Frida Kahlo for example. She was a healthy girl until she was knocked down by a bus at the age of twelve. Much of her body was seriously hurt, but her mind wasn’t. In her paintings, we can feel her strong love of art and life. Another example is Christy Brown. He was born in bad health, and the only part of his body that could move was his left foot. However, using his only foot, he still was able to write and draw wonderfully. In his autobiography, Brown wrote what happened in his life and how he began to draw pictures with his left foot. And don’t forget Stevie Wonder. He became blind soon after he was born, but he is now a popular singer and songwriter.

These artists with “weak” bodies bring us many good things and much hope with their “strong” minds. Their stories tell us that the most important thing in life is not what we have, but what we make of it.

Here is what Matt said about his life changes in an interview.

“It’s like getting a new life, I mean, living with the Tragers.

Being the oldest kid in Rosario Landing isn’t something you’d be proud of. People who go there usually want younger kids, babies even, because babies remember little about their real parents, and it’s easier for them to become close to their new parents. I felt happy for those who left with their new families. I really did. But it got harder to be happy for them when you were never the one to go.

I never thought Nicole and Thomas would pick me. They said they felt like they had known me for many years. After spending a few afternoons with me, they decided to take me home.

It’s never easy to have a stranger in your life. Lori is nice, but she’s too polite, like I was just one of her parents’ friends. We talk, but not very warmly. Sean deals with it better than his older sister. I slept in his room before I had my own, and we got to play tricks on each other three nights later, like real brothers.

If there’s anything I can do to make them feel easier with me. I’ll try. I Want to, because, for the first time in my life, I feel that I belong somewhere.”
