Never before had I imagined I should have the opportunity to live with so many girls．Would they 36 such a single “Hi” from me? I was about to greet my new roommates， 37 they did not seem to have the same 38 attention that I had．They just dealt with their own 39 ， sorting out their clothes，and making arrangements for their university life．Thus tranquility（宁静）
became the 40 atmosphere in the dormitory．
To my surprise， 41 such a situation，I did not feel a sense of 42 ．With time going on，we got to know each other deeper．I was 43 to find that in deep soul we all had great dreams and belonged to the same 44 ．
However，not long before the 45 was disturbed by my own upset of mind for study pressure．What I was 46 about seemed to have 47 to do with them and what they were doing and talking about seemed so far away from me．However，one incident changed my 48 and made me treasure this kind of 49 better and more confident in our friendship．
One day，when I was leaving the teachers’ office，it was in complete silence and frightening 50 ．At my dormitory gate，I was startled （使惊奇）to find there still 51 a little light glimmering in the darkness，so faint but yet so clear．Just under the 52 of the light，I went to the room without any difficulty．They were in sound sleep，leaving the 53 light on in the calm world．Tears rolled down my cheeks．
I know 54 that we all like tranquility，both in environment and in our mind．It is the care that 55 all the misunderstandings and unpleasantness．

I remember vividly the call that changed my life. It was Tuesday, February 18, when the 31 rang in the kitchen of my Los Angeles home. On the 32 was Marty Bandera, a literary agent to whom I had sent a draft(草稿) of my novel three weeks earlier. “ I have a couple of 33 ,” Bandera said.
“First, how old are you?” “I’m 48,” I replied.
“Are you in good 34 ?” “Yes, excellent. What’s this about?”
“I’ve sold your novels 35 one and a half million dollars.”
I sat down in 36 . I had written over fourteen novels in twenty years, but each one had been 37 by the publishers. I suppose many people would have been 38 , but not me. Each time, I just 39 writing another one. My husband advised me to find something else to do, but I refused to 40 . Seeing this book 41 was the best thing that has ever happened to me. It’s a mystery story (like all the others) and it was on the best-seller 42 two weeks after publication!
I got my first lesson in story 43 from my grandmother. She used to read me stories. She was the one who gave me a 44 of words. She sparked(激发) my 45 and she has been a 46 influence on me. I always had stories running through my 47 and as soon as I could write I 48 them down on paper.
I married young and I have three children, but I never stopped writing, 49 novels between doing the diapers(婴儿的尿布) and dishes. I am writing another novel now. Yes, my 50 has changed my life。

When my mom came home from the hospital with twins, I was excited at the very beginning. I couldn’t 36 to play with them and be the best big sister ever.
Everyone was coming over to our house to hold the babies and 37 presents to the babies and talk nonstop how 38 the babies were. Then they’d pull out their cameras, and just 39 I was about to say “cheese”, they’d run over to my perfectly perfect little brothers and take 40 of them. At that time I was thinking, “Why can’t I be little again so I can be the one getting all the 41 ?”
When my aunt Camille got 42 , my mom spent forever finding the perfect clothes for them. On the day of the 43 , my twin brothers had the cutest and prettiest clothes. And then there was me, just sitting and watching in my 44 dress.
After the ceremony, all I 45 was how sweet and lovely the twins were.
I definitely 46 that they were wonderful, but I couldn’t help feeling 47 and invisible (看不见的).
There was a big 48 after the wedding. Aunt Camille and her nice new 49 had the first dance, and then everyone started 50 like crazy including me. I 51 my uncomfortable dress shoes, and I danced and danced and danced! It 52 one of the most fun times I’ve had in my entire life.
The very 53 part was when my aunt and I took my twin brothers by the hands and 54 them some dance moves. Teaching them was such a cool thing. I 55 then what a huge waste of time feeling jealous is when you can kick off your shoes and enjoy life!

Mr. Glen is a millionaire. Five years ago, after returning from abroad to his motherland, he
16 his small company. Speaking of success, Glen often tells us a story about his extra expensive “school” fee. He always 17 his success to it.
At that time, Glen, who already got a Ph.D. degree, 18 to return to the homeland, starting a company. Before leaving, he bought a Rolex watch with the 19 made through years of work after school and the scholarships. At the airport he had to accept the 20 customs check. The watch on his wrist was also demanded to be taken down for 21. Glen knew that carrying the specific goods out had to pay the tax, and he worried about paying 22 for his watch. So when he was checked, he told a lie that his watch was a 23 fake（假货）. When he was 24 of his “smarts”, immediately, in the presence of Glen, the officers hit the watch, 25 cost nearly 100,000, into pieces 26 hearing Glen’s words. Glen was 27 . Before he understood why, he was taken to the office to be examined 28 . For many times of entry-exit 29 he knew that only those people in the “blacklist” would “enjoy” this special treatment. The officers looked over everything carefully in the box, and 30 him no matter what time of entry and exit he must accept the check and if 31 reusing and carrying fake and shoddy goods, he would be 32 according to law! Suddenly, his face turned red, and he had nothing in mind after boarding the plane for long.
After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees, too. He said that this made a deep 33 on him, because the additional high “school” fee that he had ever paid made him realize the value of 34 , which he would remember as the 35 of his success forever.

Two men, both seriously ill, were in the same hospital room. One man was allowed to _16_ up in his bed for an hour each afternoon. His bed was _17_ the room’s only window. The other man on the other side of the room had to _18_ all his time lying on his back in bed.
Every afternoon when the man by the window could sit up he _19_ pass the time by describing to his _20 all the things he could see outside the window. “The window overlooks a _21_ with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans play on the water _22_ children sail their model boats. Young lovers walk _23_ among flowers of every colour. Grand old trees grace(装扮) the landscape, and a fine _24_ of the city skyline can be seen in the distance.” As the man by the window _25_ all this in detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and _26_ the scene.
Days and weeks passed. On morning, the day nurse came only to find the man by the window had died _27_ in his sleep. When the man’s body was _28_, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the _29_. The nurse agreed and after making sure he was _30_, she left. Slowly and painfully, the man raised himself _31_ to take his first look at the _32_ world outside by himself. But to his _33_, he found it faced nothing _34_ a blank wall.
In fact, the man by the window was _35_ and could not even see the wall. He just wanted to encourage his roommate.
