I was eight years old. At that moment in my life, I liked baseball so much that nothing was more 1 to me than baseball. My team was the New York Giants, as a fan, I followed the doings of those men 2 the black and orange caps. Even now, when I think of the team which is no longer there, I can still remember the 3 of nearly every baseball player on the team. But none was 4 , and none more perfect than Willie Mays.
That spring I was 5 to my first big-league game. Just as we walked to the exit after the game, I caught sight of Willie Mays. I rushed to him and said 6, "Mr. Mays, could I please have your autograph(亲笔签名)?" He said, "sure, you got a 7?" I didn't have one in my pocket. The great Willie Mays just stood there watching in 8.He just shrugged(耸肩)saying, "Sorry, kid." And then he walked out of the ball park into night. I didn't want to cry, but tears started 9my face, and there was nothing I could do to 10them.
After that night, I started carrying a pencil 11 I went. It became a habit of mine never to leave the house12making sure I had a pencil in my pocket. It went. It's not because I had any 13 plans for that pencil, but I didn't want to be unprepared. I had been caught empty-handed once, and I wasn't about to let it happen to me again. If something else, the years have 14me this: If there is a pencil in your pocket, there's a good 15 that one day you'll feel glad to start using it.
Do you use Facebook, MySpace or Twitter?If so, then you are part of a social network. Social networking sites allow us to see our social connections.
When you create a profile (简介) on a social networking site, you open up a number of possible social connections. You can look up old friends, make new friends, and share music, photos and videos with them. You can also join groups according to your interests or hobbies, favorite TV shows or music.
Setting up a social networking account (帐号) is simple. You just create and post a personal profile. For this you need a login name, password, and an e-mail account. Then you add some personal information such as name, age, sex, location, interests, etc. You can also add a photo of yourself. You can control who sees your profile.

Different social networking sites allow people to communicate in different ways. There are sites that allow you to enlarge your personal community such as Facebook.

In 1959, when Jan Hamper was in the third grade, her teacher asked them to write a report on what they wanted to they grew up. She poured her heart into her report and expressed her dream of becoming an airline pilot. Her paper came back with an "F" on it. The teacher told her it was a "fairy tale", Jean was completely disappointed. As the years went by, Jean was beaten down by the discouragement. "Girls can't become airline pilots; never have, never will. You're crazy." Finally Jean gave up.
In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was Mrs. Dorothy Slaton, a strict teacher with high standards. One day Mrs. Slaton asked this question, "What will you do in the future?" Jean felt a rush of the old enthusiasm (热情) , and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream right away.
The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean's life. "I have a little secret for you. You do have unlimited abilities and talents. When you leave school, if you don't go for your dream, no one will do it for you. You can have what you want if you try!"
The hurt and fear of years of discouragement disappeared suddenly. Jean felt thrilled and told her teacher about her dream of becoming a pilot. Mrs. Slaton slapped (敲) the desk top, "Then do it" she said.
So Jean did. It didn't happen overnight. In her 10 years of hard work, even facing all kinds of difficulties, she never gave up her dream.
Eventually, Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain (机长) of the United Airline Company.
Have you ever heard of e-waste, which can be produced every day?How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they're broken or you want a new one?
Most people just throw them away. With the development of electric industry, e-waste pollution has become a serious problem. According to the United Nations, in 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of e-waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.
It's important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we deal with it. E-waste is a valuable urban mine. The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is amazing. And the metals can be reused. But if people throw them away, the toxic (有毒的) chemicals can get into the earth or air, affecting the environment and people's health.
Apple, for example, now recycle people's used products in China when they are buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lower prices. To help reduce e-waste, we can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programs.
