With the string（线）in hand, Jack started flying the kite. Soon, the kite was high up in the sky. After a while, Jack said, "Father, it seems that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will fly much higher. Can we cut it " Mr. Green didn't reply, but just cut the string off the reel（线轴）. Suddenly, the kite began to go higher, which made Jack much happier.
However, to his surprise, the kite was coming down. They waited and waited. Slowly, it fell onto the grass. Jack felt upset and asked, "I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down "
Mr. Green smiled and said, "The role of the string is not stopping the kite from flying higher, but helping it stay in the sky, because the kite itself can't fly up. By using the string you help the kite go up in the right direction. When you cut the string, it could not support the kite."
In our life, we may sometimes feel like there are certain things that are stopping us from growing. But in fact, these things might support us most. We can really grow up and become even stronger by realizing the importance of these things.

A person has two ears but only one mouth. That means we should listen, not just speak. The word "listen" has the same letters as the word "silent". 46 Then why is it important to be a good listener
Listening is really helpful.
When someone is sad or angry, he wants to express his poor feelings. At this moment, we need to listen silently first until he gets calm. 47 Maybe it is a good way to help him out.
48
For example, we may think our parents are always talking too much. But in fact, they do so because they are worried about our health, study and so on. 49 A silent listening is often more powerful than words.
Listening is polite behavior.
Sometimes, we just want others to listen to us but forget to listen to others. In fact, that's impolite. In order to show our respect for others, we had better listen to them first. Then we can express our ideas.
50 Every head is a world. So we should learn to listen with our ears, eyes and hearts as much as we can, and try to make ourselves good listeners from now on.

Dear Laura,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I'm having a great time on my student exchange program in France. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are very different from the way they are at home. I thought their table manners were pretty strange at first. For example, you're not supposed to put your bread on the plate. You're supposed to put it on the table. Another example is that you're not supposed to eat anything with your hands except bread. You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork. Another thing is that it is impolite to say you're full. You should say, "That was delicious." if you don't want any more food. Also, you're not supposed to put your elbows on the table. I have to say that remembering everything is difficult, but I'm gradually getting used to it. I don't find French customs so strange anymore.
I'll write again soon and tell you more about my life in France. Hope you're having a good school year.
Yours,
Lin Yue
