Passage 3
A smile will tell people around you that you are a kind and friendly person. However, many people don’t smile because they think they have ugly teeth. For example, one of my classmates, Mike, doesn’t have very nice teeth, so that is why he seldom opens his mouth. He even says that he has lost confidence because of his teeth. So it is very important for us to look after our teeth. In fact, a lot of people have this problem. Some people inherit teeth problems from their parents, while others’ teeth are damaged because of bad habits, like heavy smoking, eating too much sugar or not brushing teeth often. If your teeth are in bad shape, you should see a dentist and ask for help. They can help improve your teeth and tell you how to take care of them.
Smiling can help you to feel more confidence and make people think of you as a more friendly person. If you want to keep healthy, you should not only smile but also laugh. An Indian doctor called Kataria said that young children should laugh about 30 times a day, while adults should laugh between 7 and 15 times a day. So please take this chance to smile and laugh now.
What has made Mike lose his confidence?

A．His bad habit

B．His bad teeth

C．Not smiling

D．Eating too much sugar

Many people don’t smile because ______

A．they don’t like smiling	B．they think they are ugly
C．their teeth are not beautiful	D．they can’t open their mouths

A．A dentist can tell you how to improve your bad teeth.

B．A dentist can help you to take care of your bad teeth.

C．A dentist can tell you how to brush your teeth.

D．Both A and B

If you want to keep healthy, you had better _____

One day，the train stopped for a short time unusually．My brother and I were digging around in the snow when the train's fireman came to the window and shouted to us，"Why are you boys digging in the snow？Are you looking for gold？"he laughed．

"No，sir，"I replied，"We are finding coal．"

"Why doesn't your daddy buy coal？It's really dangerous here．"

"Our daddy is very sick and we have no money to buy food and coal，"I answered．

The fireman turned and went inside．After a moment，he shouted again．"Hey! Bring that coal bucket（桶子） here．I got something for you．"Then the fireman filled our bucket with clean coal．We were happy with his gift，and we knew we could go home early that day．

He smiled the kindest and warmest smile I had ever seen．"You two boys come here the day after tomorrow and I'll throw off some coal．"

Two days later，Buddy and I stood by the railroads as the train slowed down．The fireman waved to us，then disappeared．Suddenly，some coal and a piece of red cloth came out．In the red cloth were two pieces of bubble gum（泡泡糖） and a new one﹣dollar bill．

I still remembered my first day of second grade．I was led to a room．No teacher yet．Girls talking．Boys trying to kill each other．

I took some paper and a pencil，picked a desk，and went to work．Minutes later，a girl came over and sat on top of my desk．

"What're you doing？"she said．

"Writing to 100，"I replied．

"Is that you can do？"

"No，"I said．

Then I rose from my seat to get my pencil sharpener．I had no idea that when I stood，the desk would fall over and hurt her leg．

Her name was Jane．From that day on﹣﹣she was my best friend．Wherever we went﹣﹣to school or church or basketball games，Jane saved me a seat or I saved one for her．

Many years later，after college，I moved to California and married．Jane stayed in our hometown to be a social worker．We were friends for more than 50years．After her death seven years ago，I still think of her often，especially at the start of the school year．

TV ads try to tell us what children need for school﹣new shoes，clothes，backpacks．But really，children's needs are simple．Besides the basics﹣to be fed，cared for，and loved﹣they need the gift of friendship．

For years，I feared how people saw me．But one day，I finally understood．I didn't need to be smart or pretty or popular．I just needed to be kind．

My grandson Henry recently finished his preschool and received a prize for "Friendship"．Even an Olympic medal wouldn't make me prouder! I think children need to know that they are loved．They need to know that they have all they need and the best way to win friends is to be one．

40．When she came into the classroom，the writer 　　．
