Can you imagine a school with only one student? There is one on the Out Skerries Islands, and Aron is the only student.
The Out Skerries Islands, which are around 280 km from the coast of Scotland, are home to about 70 people. The nearest town is Lerwick on the Shetland Islands. You can only get there by boat and it takes two and a half hours. Besides Aron’s school, there are also two shops, a church and a community hall on the islands.

Aron wasn’t the only student at the school at first. Until July there were several other children there. But now they are older, so they go to the secondary school in Lerwick. Aron has been the only student since September.
The school is very small. It has two classrooms, an art room, a music room and a library. Each week Aron studies math, English, science and art with the same teacher. She also gives him P. E. lessons. This is usually a long walk around the islands. He also has the school playground all to himself. Of course, there is one problem. He has no one to play with.

Aron has lived in Out Skerries since he was born and loves the outdoor life. He enjoys exploring(探险) the islands on his bike and jumping into the sea from the pier(突堤).
But his mother is worried that Aron might get lonely. She would like to see more families with children coming to live there. Many people have moved away since the local factory closed ten years ago. That’s why there are so few children on the islands and why Aron has found himself being known as the loneliest schoolboy in Britain. (2023东营改编)

4.___ To be a wise re-gifter first, don’t re-gift anything to your close
friends or family. If the gift giver finds out you have re-gifted his or her gift,
he or she will certainly get angry. The second rule is to make sure there are no
names or personal messages on it. You need to check the gift carefully. 5. ___
Things that have been recently received and never been opened are acceptable
for re-gifting. If you have to blow dust(灰尘) off the box, the present may be
too outdated to give to someone. Finally, you can also give the gift to the poor
if nobody likes it.
Remember: the most important thing is to show love by re-gifting.
