One Friday morning in September, our teacher, Mrs. Ferrara, told us that a new student was joining the class. “Her name is Luz,” said Mrs. Ferrara. “She is from the Lakeland School. She is interested in maths and music.”
Luz walked into our classroom on Monday morning. She was using a folding cane(折叠杖). I think she used it to make sure her feet would not knock into things. Mrs. Ferrara gave her a seat in the front of the room. Her desk was far from the window. Maybe the bright light near the window made trouble for her.
Some of the children wanted to help Luz get in line for lunch. She refused quietly: “Thanks, but I don’t need help.” Jose tried to help her walk downstairs to lunch, but again she answered, “Thank you, I don’t need help.”
I introduced myself at lunch. “Hi, Luz, I am Sasha, and I came from Russia last year.” She replied softly, “Hi, Sasha. I was born in California, but my parents came from Mexico. ”
Luz seemed to keep away from us. I thought she looked a little sad. One day, I dared to ask. “Why are you sad, Luz?”She looked at me and didn’t say anything for a moment. Then she said, “I miss my friends in my old school. They knew me already. They knew what I could do. They knew when I needed help and when I didn’t.”
In October, things began to get better. It was time for chorus (合唱队) to begin practicing. Luz and I both joined. Luz had a great voice! When clubs were announced, Luz chose Math Club. She was a math whiz! Soon Luz was helping others in the class who had difficulty with math. Luz looked happier now. She talked more.
Luz became very special to me. We talked and shared our secrets during break. We visited after school. Sometimes on weekends, our families went out together. We became good friends. I could tell Luz anything. She could keep secrets. She was a good friend.

(20-21八年级上·江苏苏州·期中)Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn’t around? Here’s our advice to you—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.
It’s hard when a best friend isn't around—maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel left out at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has his or her friends. But remember, there’s always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you’d like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something 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 kids you want to play with, act friendly and say “Hi, can I 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 friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends 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 share something you didn’t have before he or she left. You can introduce him or her to your new friends!
21.Which of the following can explain the expression “feel left out”?
A.feel homesick B.feel lonely C.leave him or her alone D.get hungry
