I tried to do everything just to please Daddy. I got up early to help with the housework. I went home straight as from school. But he didn't seem to be moved by that at all.

The year I turned thirteen was the 100th birthday of our town. The town council decided to hold a parade（游行）, and they wanted a young lady to lead the parade. The families in the area were asked to send pictures of their children. Every parent in the area hoped that their daughter would be chosen, every parent except Daddy.

Mommy sent in a picture of me without telling me. i was always so busy being the boy Daddy wanted,  and I never considered having the chance to lead the parade So it was quite a surprise when the town council stopped by one evening to tell us I'd been chosen. Mommy was thrilled. As I expected, Daddy showed no interest in the matter.

The day of the big parade finally arrived. I was dressed in a beautiful white dress. At first I felt shy— I'd hardly ever worn dresses. But Soon I felt like a princess（公主）in a fairy tale.

As the parade passed down the main street of our town, I saw Mommy and Daddy standing on the side. Mommy was waving an American flag. But Daddy...... well, he was just smiling! As I passed him. I thought I saw tears in his eyes. At that moment, I knew I had finally gained his admiration（赞赏）—not as a replacement, but as the young lady I really was.

23、   Last week, Class 1 went on a trip to London Zoo. They had a wild day out! Almost all the students found their favourite animals. The trip also gave Class 1 something else to talk about. They argued(争论) about whether(是否) zoos are cruel(残酷的). The zoo animals are from all around the world. How can they all be comfortable?

Lucy, one of our reporters, was with Class 1 students and she interviewed Tom.

Lucy: What 's your favorite animal, Tom?

Tom: Giraffes.

Lucy: Why?

Tom: They look so strange! They have such long, long necks! And they have really long legs, too.

Lucy: They do look strange. How tall do they grow?

Tom: About 18 feet tall. They can run fast too, because their legs are so long. They can run up to 35 miles an hour.

Lucy: That 's pretty fast! They must eat a lot to be able to run that fast. Do they eat a lot of meat?

Tom: NO, they don't eat any meat. They eat leaves. That's the only thing they eat.

Lucy: Do giraffes live all over the world, too?

Tom: No, they don't. They live only in Africa.

Lucy: But Africa is a lot hotter than Europe! Don't you think it's cruel to bring giraffes over from Africa to Europe? Don 't you think it's cruel to keep them in the zoo?
