My little brother and sister were always saying that I was bossy (爱发号施令的). And it wasn't until I met a very bossy person that I understood how they felt!

My school was holding a fundraiser (募捐活动) called the Spring Fling Fair, and everyone was going to help out. I was pretty excited about it. There were lots of committees to choose from, and I chose games and activities, which sounded like fun.

But every time we got together, a guy named Peter did the same thing. He never seemed to realize that he was part of a team with three other people.

At last, it was the day of the Spring Fling Fair, and we were all running around getting ready.

“You need to make the horseshoes sign hang straighter，” Peter commanded.

“Would you please do it yourself？” I said. “I'm kind of busy organizing the prizes.”

“There are too many pink balloons on the wall，” Peter complained. “You should add more blue ones.”

“Feel free to go ahead and add them，” Mike said.

The best (or maybe the worst) example of Peter's bossiness happened when the Spring Fling Fair finally started. A cute little girl was fishing for a prize, and Peter grabbed (抢夺) the fishing pole right out of her hands!

“You're holding it all wrong，” he told her. “Do it like this！” This little girl looked up at Peter, took a big breath, and said, “That may be the right way for you to do it, but it's not the right way for me.”

And that was probably the best thing this little girl could have said.

The good part of this experience is that it helped me understand how my brother and sister felt when I told them what to do and didn't stop to be polite or consider their feelings. Now I try to be more patient and less bossy, and we get along much better.

The village of Foston, North Yorkshire, UK, now has a post office thanks to pupils at the village primary school.

People in the village were saddened to see their local branch (分局) closed 12 years ago.

But now the village primary school has opened one in a converted (改造

过的) outdoor toilet, a small brick building, with all the pupils at the school trained to help.

Teaching assistant Laura Glass, 29, said, “The last one closed in 1998 and the nearest one is five miles away, meaning it was very tricky as the village has a lot of elderly people, and we suggested that the old toilet be used.”

“We got a lot of help from the government and the villagers in converting it.” We then realized that by getting pupils to run it we could help teach them important skills at the same time.

“The children will be properly supervised (察看并指导)．They love it and it gives them key skills, and the villagers love it too because it is such a unique service.”

The post office opens daily during the pupils' schooldays, for 15 minutes during their lunch break, and for another 15 minutes after lessons at 3 pm.

Villager Laura Deighton's five-year-old daughter Grace goes to the school and has been serving customers at the unusual branch.

Laura, 31, said, “Grace thinks it's wonderful and great fun, and she and all the kids learn really useful social skills.”

“It is also a great benefit to the community.They've got everything you could possibly need, and the kids are excellent.They are so friendly and helpful.”

5．The underlined word “tricky” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”．

A．enjoyable B．difficult C．exciting D．different

6．Laura Deighton's attitude towards the service provided by the pupils can be described as ________.

A．anxious B．surprised C．satisfied D．doubtful

7．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
