     My son Karl talked little after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But

the more I tried, the more withdrawn he became. His report card arrived, saying that he had been absent 95

times from classes and failed in the exams. I sent him to the school advisor, and I even begged him. Nothing

worked.

     One day, I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. "I want to

talk to you about Karl's absences." Before he could say another word, all my disappointment and sadness over

Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. "I love my son but I just don't know what to do. I've tried

everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It's out of my hands." For a moment there

was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, "Thank you for your time", and hung

up.

     Karl's next report card showed marked (显著的) improvement in his grades. Last week I attended a parent-

teacher meeting with Karl. His teachers praised him a lot and were amazed at the way he had turned himself

around. On our way home, he said, "Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. "That

was me. I thought I'd play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you.

That's when I knew I had to make you proud."

4. Karl turned himself around because _____.

A. his teachers asked him to do so

     A vuvuzela is a horn, about a meter long, usually made of a colorful cheap plastic. When it's blown by

thousands of supporters at the same time, it's loud, very loud.It sounds a bit like an air horn and you can

hear it a lot during the 2010 World Cup.

     The vuvuzela was originally made from a kudu horn and was traditionally used to summon people to

gatherings.Butthe horn you see at soccer matches in South Africa today originated from a tin horn that

became popular with South African soccer fans around 15 years ago.A sports company began to

massproduce a plastic version in the South Africa colors, and this is what you see (and hear) at every

soccer match.Now it's become an official symbol of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and more

popular around the world.

The vuvuzela will be ubiquitous during the 2010 World Cup.There was a call for FIFA to ban the

vuvuzela during the Confederations Cup that took place in South Africa in June 2009.European

journalists got into a tizzy(紧张) about the noise.The Guardian reported:"It sounds like extremely

terrible."But FIFA stood its ground, as Mr.Blatter, FIFA's president says"Vuvuzelas, drums and singing

are part of African football culture.It is part of their celebration, it is part of their culture, so let them blow

the vuvuzelas."

     Adam Carnegie, a graphic artist from Cape Town, founded the Kelp Environmental Learning Project.

The project employs local men and women to collect kelp, dry it and then hand paint colorful designs on

it.The mission is simple."We want to create jobs, make a noise, make people laugh, remind people to be

in the moment."

     Like most trumpets, getting any noise from a vuvuzela requires significant pursing of the lips and the ability to blow with force.Your cheeks will be zinging afterward.You can personalize your vuvu blowing techniques with a lot of practice, but generally it produces one big sound.

4.Why did FIFA stand its ground on the issue of the vuvuzela?
