    The man who admitted to killing an Italian woman inside her East Harlem apartment said he was possessed by an “evil spell (咒语),” police said Thursday.
    Bakary Camara, 41, who once dated the murdered woman, penned his admission of guilt in a three-page letter folded in his pocket as he tried to kill himself after policemen burst into his home. Kelly, a policeman, said “He says that there was an evil spell that was cast on him.”
Camara, who was in stable condition at St. Barnabas Hospital, was later charged with the murder of Rita Morelli.
    The 36-year-old woman was getting a degree at Borough of Manhattan Community College as she waited tables at Caffe Buon Gusto on the upper East Side, police said. Camara called 911 from a payphone after killing the lively Morelli on Nov. 23.
    Her body was later found in her E. 120th St. home. She was hanged and had knife wounds to her throat and chest.
    Policemen began dialing numbers from Morelli’s cell phone and when Camara picked up, a detective recognized his voice as the man who called in the report of a dead body, police said. When officers went to Camara’s home, he locked himself inside, forcing policemen to burst down the front door to catch him.
    “He is standing there with a knife pointed at his chest,” Kelly, a policeman, said. “He makes threatening statements as to the fact that he killed the woman. He then stabs himself in the chest.”
Camara, who told police he served six years in prison for robbery back in his native country, was still waiting to be charged with murder Thursday.
    Morelli left her hometown of Spoltore, Italy, five years ago to fully experience the arts and music culture of the big city, her family said.

　　　[1] In America, when the eighth graders leave the middle school, they are often worried about moving to the high schoo1. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, students need to get familiar with their school. 
    [2] Even though they’ve done this already in the middle schoo1, it’s still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And most schools also have a freshman speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the schoo1. This can help students and parents to find different places of the schoo1. 
    [3] One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to _______________or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of schoo1. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs allow students from different grades. By joining an activity, students can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications. The school office will have a 1ist of activities offered at the schoo1 and information on how to join them.
