By nature, he was proud and considered himself a know-it-all. He always kept himself updated with the latest and firmly believed that he knew everything, but his parents’ faces always reflected sadness to Rayan’s behavior. “I want to ride a motorcycle! My friend Hans came to school today on his new motorbike that his father gave him on his birthday. I want a bike too!” Rayyan put forward his demand abruptly. Rayyan appeared quite stubborn to get a motorcycle at any condition. Rayyan’s demand troubled his mother the whole night and she decided to have a calm discussion with him about the matter the next day. After preparing his favorite dish of chicken, Rayyan’s mother sat in the sofa waiting for her son to come back from school. The doorbell rang and as she pulled the door open, she was shocked to see that Rayyan’s hand and foot were bleeding. “Are you okay, my dear?” his mother asked as she held his hand. Rayyan lay down in the sofa, staring at the ceiling out of guilt and embarrassment, unable to answer her. After a few seconds, he put his arms around his mother and started to cry. “Maa... I am sorry! I am really sory, Maa…,” he wept and told his mother about the accident that took place when he rode his friend’s motorbike after school. He had been determined to show his mother that he was old enough to ride a bike. “I know… I know, my dear son,” she said with a smile on her face, wiping Rayyan’s tears. Rayyan hugged his mother tightly, his weepy eyes reflecting the promise to begin a new and disciplined chapter of his life. 11. What troubled Rayyan’s mother the entire night? A.

Pride goes before; failure comes after B I’m an elementay school tacher, eaching ICT (Information Communication Technology) to 10 and 11-year-old students at a public school near Lisbon. I’m also the school tech guy, in charge of digital systems and the web. Beyond that, I’m also involved in teacher training, spreading the good news on coding, robotics, 3D modeling and printing to teachers around the country. Together with our librarian Jacqueline, I’ve created Tap@rts，a small makerspace（创客空间）at my school library (one of the first library 3D printing spaces in Portugal), open to any student of the school. And my interest in Maker culture is in its educational dimension. So what do I actually make? Spark my students’ interest in 3D, coding, robotics and electronics, and offer them opportunities to freely experiment with technologies in our school science club. Well, I was an arts teacher who really loved to learn how to do stuff with 3D but never had the chance to be taught. So I learned by myself. That was about 15 years ago. At that time, laptop computers were starting to be used in my school. And I’ve decided to bring them into my arts class, figuring that 3D modeling was as valid for children in arts a drawing or painting.
