The gentleman said no and told me that he 42 to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his 43 .He told me that she had been 44 for a while and that she had a special disease. I asked if she would be 45 if he was a bit late.He replied that she 46 knew who he was,that she had not been able to 47 him for five years now. I was 48 and asked him,“And you 49 go every morning, even though she doesn’t know who you are?”
He smiled and said, “She doesn’t know me, but I know who she in.” I had to hold back 50 as he left.

That holiday morning I didn’t have to attend school. Usually, on holidays, Mother 36 me to sleep in. And I would certainly take full advantage of it. On this particular morning, ___37___,I felt like getting up early.
I stood by my window overlooking the ___38___, having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something ___39___ in life.
As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and go off, I ___40___ an old man on a bicycle with a bucket on its ___41___ and a basket rags and bottles on its back-carriage. He ___42___ from one car to another, washing and cleaning them. From the water on the ground, it seemed that he had already ___43___ washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars. He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.
Several thoughts ___44___my mind as I watched him work. He wasn’t well-dressed. He had on a pair of shorts and a(n) ___45___ T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern ___46___would want to be seen riding on. But he seemed___47___ with life. There he was, working hard at his small business, ___48___ at passers-by and stopping to chat now and then ___49___ elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.
There was a noticeable touch of___50___ in the way he seemed to be doing things— ___51___the windscreen (挡风玻璃), then standing back to admire it; scrubbing (擦净) the wheels and ___52___, standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.
It was a ___53___ to learn, I felt. At no age need one have to beg for a ___54___if one has good health and is willing to work hard. For a while I felt ___55__ of myself. Young as I am—just sixteen, and there was this old man who must have been usefully engaged perhaps before the sun appeared above the horizon.

I am now a good student in my class．But you don’t know that 16 I started senior English
in the beginning，I found ___17_____ difficult and quite different from what we had learned in junior school．Now I still remember a teacher who taught me at that time. ___18__ teacher is a good teacher because she always tries her best to be the one _19___ classes are more active and lively with some stories and examples.
__20_ the help of my teacher, I realized the 21 (important) of English，so I was 22 （determine) to learn English well. My teacher suggested that we __23_____(read) more if we want to improve our English, so every day I would do some English reading. She also 24 (tell) us lessons learned in classes could help us deal with exams, but even more valuable were the lessons learned in extra-curricular activities in school. I like my English teacher very much．
Now I have made 25 great progress in my English study that I am more interested in learning it than before．
A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting( attracting) apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater, __36_ a bar of chocolate if given the choice, 37, as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the __38__ he felt and the more he wanted that apple.
He stood on tiptoe, _39_as high as he could, but even at his tallest __40__he was unable to touch it. He began to __41__ up and down, as high as he could, at the _42 of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of _43_.
Not giving up, he thought, if only he had something to 44 on. His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to 45 the things inside, like his lunch box, pencil box, pencil case, and Gameboy. Looking 46 , he hoped he might find an old box, a rock, or, 47 luck, even a ladder, but it was a tidy neighbourhood and there was nothing he could use.
He had tried everything he could think to do. 48 seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk 49 . At first, he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his 50 , and how he really wanted that apple. The more he 51 like this, the more unhappy he became.
52 , the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t get what he wanted. He started to say to himself, “ This isn’t 53 . I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling sad as well. There is 54 more I can do to get the apple— that is unchangeable —but we are supposed to be able to 55 our feelings. If that is the case, what can I do to feel better.

At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to 41 my friend Jenny I had 41 . A worker asked if he could 43 me. “Yes,” I said. “I want to give my friend a ring.” “Well, that’s nice. Are you getting married?” he asked. “No,” I answered. “I just want to tell her 44 the phone I have arrived.” “Oh,” he said, “there is a 45 downstairs on the first floor.” “But we’re on the first floor now,” I said. “Well, I don’t know what you are 46 about. Maybe you aren’t feeling too well after your 47,” he said. “You just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better.” And he went 48 , 49 me wondering where on earth I was: at home we wash up after a 50 to get the cups and plates clean. How can I wash up at an airport?
At last we did 51. She 52 the misunderstanding(误会): American say “to give someone a 53 ”, but we English say “ to give someone a ring”. When we say “to wash your hands”, they say “to wash 54”. And Englishmen start numbering from the floor, so the 55 floor is the second for Americans.

One night recently, I was driving down a highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car came from the _21_ direction at about the same speed. As we _22_ each other, I looked into the driver’s eyes for a second. I 23 whether he might be thinking, as I was, how 24 we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall 25 , not to cross over into my lane (车道) and bring my 26 to a sudden end. He relied on me in just the same way without doubt.
I believe that is the way the world _27 . At some level, we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us simply not to cross over the double yellow line. Sometimes it requires us to _28 cooperatively, with friends or even 29 .
_30 technology makes our world smaller, the need increases for cooperation. In 2003, doctors in five nations were encouraged to find the causes of SARS, saving thousands of lives. The 31 of international terrorism has shown itself to be a similar problem, one requiring the 32 across the world. We must 33 that our future is not controlled by ourselves alone.
I’ve come to believe that one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of others. So, while 34 alone down a dark road, we must know the coming light may not be a danger, but a 35 moment of trust.

One day around 5:30 pm, I was going home on a bus and everybody on the bus was quiet. People had just 36 from work, students had just finished their 37 class and everybody was a little 38 from a long day. I was just looking outside of the 39 without any specific（具体的）thought in my mind. It was the same 40 I have seen many times before, people hurrying home.
In front of me, there was a guy who didn’t look very clean. 41 he was looking out of the window, he suddenly 42 to me and pointed at something outside. “Hey, look! ”He had a big smile on his face. I turned to the 43 he was pointing in and there it was the beautiful Catalina mountains burning with a beautiful 44 . He turned to other people on the bus and told them to look at the mountains. He 45 “Wow” and “It’s so beautiful” again and again. Everybody on the bus 46 the view indeed.
The 47 view also helped me to 48 my long tiring day with a good feeling in my heart. But, more 49 , I was so inspired to see that this man wanted to 50 the beautiful view with everybody on the bus, totally strangers. His 51 act made me accidentally find something that I had lost which I didn’t even know I had lost. He made me 52 that I had lost the feelings and the 53 I used to have every day. In my daily life, many things had 54 their color and movement, but he 55 me that things are still there—they never get lost.
