When he was set free he had written to tell them he wanted to go home．To make matters easy for them，however，he had asked them to put up a signal （信号） for him when the train passed their little farm．If the family had forgiven （原谅） him，they were to put up a white ribbon （丝带） in the big apple tree near the railway．If they didn't want him back，they were to do nothing，and he would stay on the train，and go far away．
As the train neared his hometown his suspense became so great that he was afraid to look out of the window．He asked Michael to watch for the big apple tree．They changed seats．In a minute，Michael put his hand on the young convict's shoulder，"There it is，"His eyes were filled with sudden tears．"It's all right．The whole tree is white with ribbons．"

Students need enough sports and activities to keep fit and relax，and in some schools students are not giving enough time to do outdoor activities．Teachers ask students to spend most of their time at studies．But if students feel tired，they can't pay attention to that they're studying．They will be in a bad health．It's also not good for his studies．In my opinions，it's important give students enough time to do outdoor activities．Then they will enjoy better health and work hard．So please pay more attention to student health and growth．组卷：4引用：1难度：0.5
