The Jordans had the best raspberries in the neighborhood, and that their bushes were always heavy with fruit.So, that summer Friday night, we snuck(潜行) into the Jordans’ backyard and 21 ourselves carefully around the bushes and started 22 their sweet, juicy berry. And we were enjoying every bite of ill-gotten berry 23 all of a sudden the Jordans’ backyard lights were turned on.
“What you boys doing out here?” Mr Jordan shouted. In all 24 ran off my friends, une aten raspberries 25 everywhere.
He made an attempt to grab one or two, but they were too quick. Speed was never my 26 . So I could just stand there and 27 whatever punishment from the Jordans and my parents. I took the scolding that Mr Jordan gave me until we reached my house, where my mother 28 . My friends said they could hear every 29 word from the darkness of our backyard, where they had gathered to celebrate their 30 .
They 31 me about it for days afterwards, while all I could do was complain about how 32 it was that I had to pay the full 33 for doing the exact same thing all of them had done without any 34 consequences. After about a week, I complained it to my father.
“You took raspberries without asking, and you got exactly the punishment you 35 ,”Dad said.
“But what about the other guys?” I asked.
“That’s not my 36 , nor should it be yours,” Dad said. “You can’t control what happens to other people. You can 37 deal with what happens to you.”
Back then I thought Dad just didn’t 38 it. But through the years I come to realize that, 39 , he knew what he was talking about. We didn’t come to earth with a(an) 40 that life would treat us fairly. The only thing we can actually deal with is what happens to us.

Ban the Band(乐队)？
Every year,our school has a dance for all the students.It’s a little funny seeing friends in clean shoes and trousers or colorful 36 ,instead of the usual school uniform.
Most of us think the dance is great 37 —even the teachers enjoy being there. 38 ,two weeks ago someone said that there would be no 39 band this year—only CDs.
“I don’t 40 it!”Amy cried out during the lunch break.
“Someone said the school couldn’t 41 a band,and they think it’s too noisy anyway,”added Daniel.
“Well,I don’t think it’s 42 enough without a band!”declared Angela,“and I’m going to see what can be done.”
Angela was as good as her 43 .In the afternoon she went to see the school headmaster who agreed to give the 44 some more thought.And he suggested that one 45 for having a band was to increase the price of each ticket from $5 to $10.Angela had to 46 out whether the students would like to do that.
“I need all of you to help me,”she 47 to our group before school the next day.“Mr.Berry gave me a list of all the names,and suggested we ask each one their 48 about the band and the extra cost.”
49 the day we asked around as Angela suggested,and wrote down people’s feelings about the band and the cost.We were amazed how much 50 there was for the band and everyone agreed to pay the extra $5.
“I’m surprised,”smiled Mr. Berry,when we gave him the 51 .“I really thought that only a few people 52 their band and that the cost would be too high.OK,Angela,your next 53 is to find a good band and line them up for the dance.”
Angela was all smiles and 54 the news to Amy and Daniel.“You’re 55 ,”smiled Daniel to Angela as he thought how close they came to having a less than perfect dance.
