Athletics(体育) vs. Gardening
The students f Suthside Schl were asked t give their pinins abut whether (是否) the
schl shuld run an athletic prgramme r start a vegetable garden.
An athletic prgramme is better than gardening. Hw are we ever ging t win anything at the
Inter-Schl Athletics withut prper training? At the mment, we nly d athletics fr ne term and the teachers train us. We need experts(专家)t teach us things like thrwing and high jump.
I knw lts f kids say they're nt interested in cmpetitins, but that's because they've never
wn anything. If they gt better training and started winning things, they'd sn change their minds.
Peple always say kids dn't get enugh exercise. Just ding gardening utdrs desn't make it
exercise, s I dn't see hw it matters(要紧).
Athletics is much better fr fitness and lts f kids can have a g at the same time. I dn't think there wuld be enugh. jbs fr everyne in a garden.
In fact, I think a garden is really a bad idea. I dn't knw why we're even thinking abut it.
Liz, Grade 8
I think a vegetable garden is a great idea. We already d hurs f sprt, including athletics. And nt everyne likes sprt.
Gardening is a great way t get exercise withut wrrying abut if yu're any gd at it, r if yu're ging t win. And yu really d get exercise when yu garden. There's digging, weeding and watering. Even picking things can be hard wrk - pumpkins aren't light, yu knw!
There are lts f kids arund here wh dn't have gardens s they can't grw things even they want t. If yu really want t d mre sprt, yu can jin a club.
And think abut it: What helps yu t be gd at sprt? Yu need t eat lts f fruit and vegetables. If we learn t tk all the things we grw, the garden will keep us all fit and healthy and then we'll be better at sprt.
Sam, Grade 8

The lin never shwed any interest in running away, and even if he'd wanted t, the park wall was t high fr an ld lin t jump ver. Wherever Bertie went, he wanted t g t. And if ever Bertie went ut in the car, then he'd sit by me in the kitchen, and watch me with thse great amber eyes, listening all the while fr the sund f Bertie's car cming up the path t the frnt f the huse.
The lin was getting lder. And he became weak in his legs and culd see very little. He spent his last days sleeping at Bertie's feet. When he died, we buried (埋葬) him at the bttm f the hill. Bertie wanted it that way s he culd always see the place frm the kitchen windw. I advised Bertie t. plant a tree in case (以防) he frgt where the lin was. "I will, but he shuld get mre than a tree, "Bertie said.
Bertie was sad fr weeks, mnths after the lin died. There was nthing I culd d t cheer him r even cmfrt him. He wuld sit fr hurs in his rm, r g ff n lng walks by himself. He seemed s shut away inside himself, s distant(遥远的). Try as I did, I culd nt reach him.
