My tears run down when I talk to my parents on the phone. What are they doing when I them?
Dad works from 7a.m to 9p.m. Mum does all the . She also has to work in the vineyard (葡萄园). But I can’t do for them. Every day she got up earlier than Dad. When I call her at 7:30 in the evening, she is still working and supper. How hard it is for a daughter to stop the in heart! And even harder to keep back the tears. only thing I can do is to promise her that I’ll study hard in the university. I also her to take care of herself and dad. I can not live them.
Mum says the happiest time for dad and is when my sister and I return home. We play
in the room, watch TV or do anything we like, with dad mum cooking together in the kitchen. It is the happiest time for me. I’ve never thought my holidays at home could be so . I wanted to do more housework because mum really needs more rest.
Love, sometimes, doesn’t need too many . We may be too shy to say the warm word out. Then give them a call and tell them you miss them.

What’s your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success only with practice. In fact, I fell both of these statements are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see “Titanic”. I was really because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition, Thinking that I might be lucky again, I joining in other art competitions, ‘But the result was that I won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the I produced were not of a very high standard
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky , I also need to put in hard work. As we know, akes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.

Around two weeks ago, I was invited to be a judge(裁判) at a college. All of the students had been given a piece of paper with a topic written on it. The first one to speak looked a little . “My dear friends and judges,” he said loudly, “this is an unfair ! I have been given the paper,” he continued, “to speak on the topic with just a few minutes’ preparation, those who come after me have more time to their speeches!” He then left the stage and went out of the hall.
I met him later by chance. “Who said life is ?” I asked him with a smile, and I asked him to walk with me to my car. “Have you seen the figures(数字) they show when a new car is into the market, saying how good it is?”
“Yes,” he nodded.
“But they put a after all these figures. They say all the figures are in ideal road conditions!”
“Yes,” he said again.
“Can you show me some ideal road conditions?” I asked him, and he smiled. “The car that sells well is the one will provide power and speed on the roads. That car is the winner.”
We had got to the car. “Don’t look for ideal competition conditions,” I said. “ the unfair and come out a winner!”
I looked back as I drove away and saw him smile and wave, and I knew he would do as I said.

At present, almost everyone has a mobile phone, but have you ever thought that cell phones be bad for your health? A study shows that heavy mobile phone use may cause hearing loss(失聪).
This study shows that people who use cell phones for about an hour a day have a time hearing some similar sounds, especially in their right ears. It is getting harder for to tell the difference between the sounds of“s”and“f”，and“t”and“z”.
Researchers studied 100 people who used cell phones and them with 50 people who did not. The study lasted for 12 months. What the researchers found was that cell phone users had more hearing than those who did not use cell phones.
Besides this, our ears have many little inside them. Too much noise will cause these hairs to get weak and die. When these hairs die, it affects our ability to listen.
However, cell phone users don’t care too much this study. One man said,“I’d be more worried about people who MP3 players. They put those earphones in their ears and listen to very music. I think that is more likely(更有可能的) to cause hearing loss than a cell phone.”

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work. He used to carry a nice to work with him so that he could change if his clothes got wrinkled (皱的). “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “ I need to feel comfortable.” More and more companies are their office workers to wear casual clothes (便装) to work. They thought the casual clothes could their work. In the early 1990s, the workers in American companies could wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday).This became known “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. Why have so many companies done like that? One reason is that it’s for a company to hire (雇佣) new workers if it has a casual dress style. “A lot of young people don’t want to for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you make a for their dressing.” Another reason is that people work when they are wearing comfortable clothes. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress style helps them money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said, “for the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”
