1 Corinthians 13: 1 & 13

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Should students of SMKMCF Ma Ko Pan Memorial College keep a pet? (2B Chan Cheong Shing)

Should students of SMKMCF Ma Ko Pan Memorial College keep a pet? Personally, I believe it is good for students of Ma Ko Pan Memorial College to keep a pet.

First of all, keeping pets is a good way for students to learn about the animals’ living habits. Students will be in charge of many things to do with their pets like feeding them, grooming them or cleaning their cages. During the process, students can learn how to take care of their pets.

Secondly, students can release their stress after school by stroking their pets. Many doctors said that stroking pets, particularly cats, could help people reduce stress. They said the repetitive action of stroking a warm animal helped people relieve stress or tension, making them more relaxed and comfortable.

Thirdly, students can also learn to be more responsible and have better time management. For example, if you have a dog, you have to walk it and feed it every day. Students have to take care of their pets and do homework every day. As a result, students have to be responsible for their pets as well as manage their time well. Keeping a pet can thus train them to be more reliable.

Pets do need a lot of care and attention. Moreover, it takes a lot of money to feed a pet. However, students can learn lots of things when keeping a pet. Therefore, I think that students of SMKMCF Ma Ko Pan Memorial College should keep a pet.

A Strange Dark Tale (2A Ng Wai Kiu)

My name is Jack. I worked in a photographic studio. It sells photos and helps people to take photos like passport photos. I was just a boy who worked there. But, I was killed there yesterday.

Let me tell you my story. Yesterday, I did what I had to do as usual. I got the camera ready and went to the dark room to take the films. But, what happened afterwards was very strange.

After I went into the dark room, where the photos were, the dark room door was suddenly closed. I quickly opened it. I saw the studio owner, Mr. Lee. “Sorry! I don’t know you are here,” he said. But I sensed something bad would happen to me.

At night, Mr. Lee was gone. I was alone in the studio. When I wanted to leave, a little girl came in. “Hi! Can you take a photo for me?” she said. I was frightened, but I still took a photo for her. “Please sit and smile,” I said. But the girl didn’t listen to me. She ran into the dark room quickly. Meanwhile, my body was suddenly out of control. I went into the dark room too! “Bang!” The door was closed. The girl laughed at me. I was frightened. I tried to run, but I could not move. I just listened to her. Holding a camera, she said, “One, two, three. Smile!” and I was dead.

Can you see the girl standing behind you now?
