Yellow Dress
by Janet Lee
Mary had a yellow dress
Bought from the department store.
It looked as beautiful as the moon,
And as bright as the sun.

Mary wore all the time
The yellow dress I felt so right.
Every day from day to night
I saw her in the dress so bright.Buy me a yellow dress.I cried to Mom and Dad,
“As beautiful and bright
As the dress the girl living near has!”

I cried and cried and cried,
Until they said with sad eyes,
“We need food for your baby sister.
And clothes for your coming brother.Since then I’ve learned
Mary’s yellow dress
Is better to dream of
Than to ask for.
29.
Why does the writer say. Every day from day to night / I saw her in the dress so bright?

30.
What did the writer’s parents mean by their words?
They already had a dress for her baby sister.
They did not have money for a dress.

Dear Grandma,

I’ve been in Bluelake for two months now. It’s a beautiful small city. Schools here begin at the end of August. I like my school and I’m having a great time teaching Art History here.

I’m now living in an apartment with a friend. From the window of my bedroom, I can see a beautiful green hill with flowers and trees.

Many people go there to have a picnic or to fly kites. I enjoy taking a walk there every day after work and watching the people.

I miss you very much, Grandma, and I hope you can come and visit me here some day.

Love,

Jude

Isadora Duncan was born in America in 1877. She was a great dance teacher who enjoyed dancing at an early age, and even began teaching other children to dance when she was only six. Although Duncan herself stopped going to school at ten, she later had students from all over the world.

Duncan was called the mother of modern dance because she brought lots of new ideas into the dancing of her time. She believed that dance is life itself and comes from the heart. Duncan also said that dance belongs to everyone, rich and poor, young and old. That was why one time she did not agree to dance in a theater where the tickets were very expensive.

Duncan also surprised the people of her time by dancing in comfortable clothes and without shoes on. She broke the rules in many ways and gave dance a new language. Now people who are interested in modern dance are still getting new ideas from this great teacher.
