It was 6:00 on a Monday morning. With his books in his bag, 13-year-old James Mwangi was on his way to school, the Mcedo-Beijing school in a slum（贫民窟）in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi (肯尼亚首都内罗毕). This school was built in 2001 with the help of China, for children from poor families.
After getting to school, Mwangi went straight to his class to do his class work. It is usual that pupils in this school prepare for their lessons before the teacher comes.
To study in the school was once a dream for the poor boy. His mother made a living by washing clothes for others. Some days she took home nothing, and some days she could get about $ 3 — it was hardly enough to buy them a full meal for a day.
Before joining the Mcedo-Beijing school, Mwangi was at home with his seven brothers, collecting garbage (垃圾). The school is giving these children hope for the future by providing    a chance to get education.
“For me, education is the best gift,” said Mwangi.

very happy．He started digging a canal to his field.  40  it was noon his wife sent their daughter to bring Harry home  41  lunch．But Harry did not go．He did not want to
leave his work unfinished．He completed his work  42  at night．He Was very satisfied．

It’s not easy to be an astronaut’s son．Everybody expects you to be special or perfect．Ioften wonder how my father ever had a son like me．I mean he’s so special and so good ateverything he does．Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the footballteam．
Well，to be honest，I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something
special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star．I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father’s Day writing competition for the whole sch001．“I hope we have a winner right here in my class．”
When I got home，I started to think about what to write．My father is an astronaut．N0，wouldn’t start like that．That was the way others saw him．How did I see my father? Hmm．
I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream．I remembered how hehugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car．Yes，these were the things Iwas going to write．To me，he wasn’t just a world—famous astronaut．He was my dad．
My parents and l went to school Thursday night．There were so many people in the big[]hall! My dad looked at me，and I shrugged(耸肩)．
The third prize was announced and it was not me．1 was relieved(释然)and disappointed at the same time．The second prize was announced．It was me．
1 went up to the stage and read what I had written，“My father’s son”．When I finished，the people stood up and cheered．I saw my father blowing his nose．Tears were running down my mother’s face．Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder．“Son，thisis the proudest moment of my life．”
It was the proudest moment of my life，too．Maybe I’ll never be a great hero or win aNobel Prize，but it was enough just to be my father’s son．

What is the best title for the passage?

A reader wrote in to say that she was feeling lonely at break because her best friendwasn’t around．Here’s our advice to her—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes．
It’s hard when a best friend isn’t around—maybe because she moved to a differentschool or a different class．You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime．You want to have newfriends．but how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has theirfriends．But remember, there’s always room for more friends．  
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you’d like to playwith at break．Look for chances to say hi to them，smile，and be friendly．Offer to sharesomething or express your appreciation(欣赏)to them．Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom．When you’re at break，walk over to kidsyou want to play with．act friendly，and say “Hi，can l play, too?” or just join in．
If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends．Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends．The best way to makefriends is to be a friend．Be kind，be friendly，share，say nice things，offer to help—and pretty soon，you’ll have one，or two，or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend．But when you see each other, you can sharesomething you didn’t have before she left：You can introduce her to your new friends!
