Joyce: What do you think of the head teacher’s speech?
Caroline: I think it was (interest).
Joyce: do I. I hear Mike is likely to win all the prizes in the exams this year.
Caroline: Yes, his teacher says so. He (work) hard at his lessons every evening for months. He wants to go to Oxford University next year.
Joyce: I hope he will realize his goal.
Caroline: I hope so. I think he studies too hard. I hope he’ll go out and enjoy
for a change. How about your son Carl?
Joyce: Don’t mention him. Carl never starts studying.
Caroline: You’re joking. I heard that Carl (win) the composition prize.
Joyce: You have made mistake. That is White Carl. My son is Brown Carl. The whites live in the same community
we do. White Carl has always been so hard working. He wants to be a
(write). My son likes going to the concert. He only likes singing.
Caroline: he pracitses singing, he will become a singer in the future.
Joyce: Not all people can become a singer. I don’t think he has the talent.
I know what you’re thinking : pizza （比萨饼）? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to.
I know lots of women who skip breakfast （不吃早餐） , and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re “saving” calories （卡路里）, still others just don’t like breakfast food .
But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.
Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories.

I was fifteen months old, a happy kid until the day I fell. It was a 31 fall. I landed on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to make it blind. Trying to save the eye, the doctors stitched(缝合) the eyeball together where it was 32 , leaving a big ugly scar(疤痕) in the middle of my eye. The attempt 33 , but my mother, in all of her wisdom, found another doctor who knew that if the eye were removed 34 , my face would grow up badly distorted(扭曲)， 35 my scarred, sightless, cloudy and gray eye lived on with me. As I grew, this sightless eye in so many ways 36 me.
I walked with my face looking at the 37 so that people would not see the 38 me. Yet my mother would say to me, at every turn, “Hold your head up high and 39 the world. If you hold your head up high, it will be OK, and people will see your 40 soul.” She continued this 41 whenever I was trying to hide.
Mama’s words were of great help for me to face the world 42 . As a teenager, even though I tended to look down to hide my shame, I found that sometimes when I held my head up high and let people know me, they 43 me. In high school, I was 44 both academically and socially. I was 45 elected class president. My mother’s words helped me begin to realize that by letting people look at my face, I let them 46 the intelligence and beauty behind both eyes, even if they couldn’t see it on the 47 .
Now I’m a happy wife and great mother. The message “Hold your head up high,” has been
48 many times in my 49 home. Each of my children has felt 50 invitation, and the gift my mother gave me has lived on in another generation.
