While I was waiting to enter university, I saw in a newspaper a teaching job wanted at a school about ten miles from where I   16   . Because I was in great need of   17   and wanted to do something useful, I applied（申请）.
Three days later, a letter   18   . It asked me to see the   19   at Croydon. It proved to be an    20   journey—a train to Croydon station, a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at   21  a quarter of a mile. It was clearly that the headmaster himself opened the door. He was   22   and round.
“The school” he said, “has a group of twenty-four boys   23   seven and thirteen.”
I should have to teach all the   24   except art,   45   he taught himself. I should have to divide the class into   26   groups and teach them at three different   27   , and I was not  28   at the thought of teaching maths—a subject which I didn’t do very well in at school. It was  29   that I had to teach them on Saturday afternoon because most of my friends would be   30   themselves at that time.
Before I had time to ask about my salary（薪水）, he got up to his feet. “ Now,” he said. “ you’d better meet my wife. She is the one who really runs this school.

The population of the Earth is growing faster. It is important that we look after the Earth. We need it!
The Earth gives us a lot of things. We also give the Earth a lot, but some of the things are not good.
In nature, when something dies, other animals and plants get food from it. Every animal or plant gives food for other animals or plants. However, animals can’t get food from many of the things that we ‘give’ the Earth. Animals and plants can’t eat metal, plastic and glass. These things will stay in the ground for many, many years.

Some rubbish is very dangerous for plants and animals. In some places, many animals live together. One animal makes food for many more animals. If we put rubbish and chemicals in the water, the plankton(浮游生物) can die. If there isn’t any plankton, many animals have nothing to eat.
So what can we do? Don’t leave any rubbish in the countryside! Don’t make so much rubbish!
The Earth gives us ___________.

When something dies in nature, _________.

We must _______ to look after the Earth.

Being safe in your everyday life needs knowledge．If you remember the following information，your life will be much safer．
●  Always notice the environment around you．You shouldn’t walk alone outside late at night．Make sure where the public phones are．If anything dangerous happens，you can find them easily．
●Your bag should be carried towards the front of your body instead of putting it on your back。When a bus is full of people，it is easy enough for a thief to take away the things in the bag on your back．
●If you are followed by someone you don’t know, cross the street and go to the other way, let the person understand that you know he or she is after you．Next，don’t go home at once．You are safer in the street than you are alone in your home or in a lift．
●If you have to take a bus to a place far away, try to get to the stop a few minutes earlier before the bus leaves．This stops other people from studying you．On the bus，don’t sit alone．Sit behind the driver or other people．Don’t sleep．

What can you learn from the passage?

The teacher stood before his class of 30 students and was going to hand out the final exam papers．“I know how hard you have all worked to get ready for this test．” he said．“And because I know you are all able to understand these questions．I am ready to offer a B to anyone who would prefer not to take the test．’’
A number of students jumped up to thank the teacher and left the classroom．The teacher looked at the rest students and said．“Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last chance．”Two more students decided to go．Seven students stayed．The teacher then handed out the papers．There were only three sentences on the paper： Congratulations! You have received an A in this class．Keep believing in yourself．
I never had a teacher who gave a test like that．but I think that it is a test that any teacher could and should give．Students who do not have confidence in what they have learned are B students at most．
The same is true for students in real life．The A students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have learned from both successes and failures．They have learned life’ s lessons, whether from school education or from events in their lives，and have become better people．Scientists say that by the age of eight，80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed．You are a big kid now and you realize that you have some limits(局限)．However，there is nothing you can’t do or leant to be．Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma (珠穆朗玛峰)said，“We do not conquer the mountain．but ourselves．”
Some students left the classroom because_____

The teacher gave the rest students an A because______

The underlined word “conquer’’ means ______ in the passage.

During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I traveled    to the other side of the island (岛屿), I could see the other islands, and I said to   , “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”
So I decided    myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then began to make a long hole in it. It was hard   , but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe (独木舟). Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was! Why didn’t I think   I began work? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldn’t move it! I pulled and pushed and     everything, but it didn’t move. I was very   for a long time after that.
That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my    year I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was    small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my   now, not my prison, and I was just happy to be alive.
