A ship was sailin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g on the sea. A black boy who worked at the end of the ship fell into the sea and the boy shouted for help. But the wind was too strong, so the people in the boat couldn’t hear the sound.
The boy tried ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) his best to swim in the cold water. He used his power to wave his arms, keep the head out of the water. The boat sailed further and further, and the ship became smaller and smaller. In the end, he could see nothing except for the endless sea.
His power was used ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) up, he felt he was going to sink. “Maybe I need to give up.” He said to himself. At this time, he recalled the memory of the kind and friendly sight of the old captain. “No! The captain must search for me!” he thought. When he thought of that, he was full of power and began to swim.
Finally t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he captain found the black child had disappeared. He felt the boy must fall into the sea, so he ordered his ship to return to look for the boy.

Nowadays a large numbe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r of middle school students like surfing the Internet.
These middle s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )chool students usually listen to music, see movies, play e-games or chat with friends online. Most of them surf the Internet every day. Some of them are online for about one hour and some even for more than two hours. As a result, they are sleepy in class and can’t finish their homework. It’s a bad habit.
In my opinion, m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )iddle school students should use the Internet correctly and spend less time on it, or it will affect their study. To keep students healthy, parents and teachers must actively guide students online.
