四、阅读理解。
I walked home with my friend Jerry after school. He waved(挥手) goodbye and headed off to his house. When I was walking alone, I suddenly noticed a boy in front of me. He was carrying some of the same school books as mine.
He seemed to be singing a song in a very low voice, but I couldn't understand the words. I caught up with him and said, "Hello there."
He was surprised and dropped one of his books. I picked it up and handed it to him. He said "Thank you" in a strange way, like with a strong accent(口音).
"Your science book is just like mine."
"Oh, yes, it is," he said.
We soon began walking and chatting together. It turned out he was in my science class, and I didn't even know it! His name was Ahmad, and his family had just moved here this school year. Ahmad was a hard name to pronounce correctly, but just about the time we reached his house, I could say it quite easily. He invited me into his house, and it seemed like a much better choice than to head right home to start my homework. His family treated me like a special guest. He said in his culture, people should treat strangers very kindly. His mum brought out some great snacks and offered me some tea. Ahmad's father and two sisters wanted to hear all about me, my family and my schooling. But their story opened up a whole new world for me! Ahmad's family had to leave their lifelong home because of the war. They left with only what they could carry. His family was happy to feel safe here, and they seemed pleased that Ahmad brought a friend home.
My friendship with Ahmad has continued. I realize that your friends don't have to be just like you. There is an old saying, "Variety is the spice(香料) of life."
