One day, the man saw a cocoon. He saw the cocoon with a tiny opening. 2.这只蝴蝶正尝试着破茧而出。 He decided to watch how the butterfly would come out of the cocoon. Unluckily, even after several hours, it couldn't come out. It seemed that the butterfly tried its best and could not have any more tries. The man decided to help the butterfly. 3. He got a pair of scissors and broke the cocoon. The butterfly came out without any difficulty!

26、   The relationship between students and teachers is very important.Why is getting along with teachers important? Every day, we spend more hours with our teachers at school than with our parents at home.We learn many things from them and they teach us to be good people.

In China, many students think that teachers care mainly about our studies and school lives.We believe that they know everything, especially about the subjects they teach.They also have the right to decide who should be the new class leaders, give a speech or take part in some important activities.

Many students want to be the teacher's “pet”.Just like a pet to its owner, we show great respect to our teachers, For example, in class we follow the rules and keep quiet unless the teacher asks us to speak.We seldom argue with our teachers and believe everything teachers say.When they make a mistake, we seldom point it out.Some of us even wouldn't like to contact(接触)teachers after class, because we don't want to bother them.

However at American schools.teachers and students are more like friends.In class, students express their opinions freely and challenge teachers when they don't agree.If a teacher makes a mistake, the teacher will say sorry in front of the whole class.They talk about studies and life experiences.

In my opinion, it's good to show respect for our dear teachers in China, but we'd better think more about how to build a better relationship with teachers.

27、When you are learning English, you find it not always right to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.

Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.

“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”

“I’ve seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”
