There was once a boy who would never get dressed when his parents told him to. He1 to dress in a much stranger manner, but above all, he liked to take his time. His parents were 2 in a hurry, and wanted him to be a lot quicker,3the boy didn't like this, and he would slow down even more.

    One day, his parents were in their usual hurry, and they got so4when he refused to dress, that they told him that he would have to go out naked (赤裸的). The5didn't mind (介意) this at all. So they went out.

    While the boy was standing naked outside his house, waiting for his parents to6the car, the local pig farmer came along. The pig farmer was hard of hearing and had poor eyesight. Not only that, but he'd also forgotten to put his7on that day. When he saw the little boy's pink skin, he thought it was one of his pigs. With a bit of shouting and pushing, the farmer8to get the boy safely back to a pigsty. He was there for the whole day, living 9the pigs and sharing their food and home.

    Finally, though, his parents found him. The boy had had such a10day that never again did he want to be mistaken for anything except a human being. Nowadays he's the first to get dressed, and look perfectly neat and tidy.

    It was the golden season. I could see the1leaves falling with the cool wind. For others it's the harvest season, but for me, it is a(n) 2season. I was 3 for the Postgraduate Entrance Examination（研究生入学考试）. But so many unhappy things made me so tired, so I decided to have a walk in my university.

    "Autumn is a lonely season and life is uninteresting. The days in this season always get me 4, "I thought when the beautiful sound of a guitar flowed into my ears. A young girl, sitting on the stone, was lost in her guitar playing. She was a beautiful girl, 5when the wind blew her long hair.

    Lost in the music, I didn't6that I had been standing for so long. Every day I would see her playing her guitar. She was the only7and I was the only audience. On the following days, life became8and I could review the courses carefully.

    Autumn was9over. When I was listening heartily（尽情地） one day, the sound suddenly stopped. To my surprise, the girl came over to me. "You10like music," she said.

    "Yes, you play very well. Why did you stop?"I asked.

    Suddenly, her face looked 11."I came here just to have a rest because I12in the College Entrance Examination. I felt very disappointed. And it was your listening every day that13me," she said," and I have to go tomorrow."

    "In fact, it was your playing that gave me a14autumn and helped me believe that I can pass the exam," I answered." I think it was God who gave us the15to know each other and we should be good friends." She smiled and I smiled too, in that beautiful autumn.

    If anyone can be called a scientific giant after Albert Einstein, that person must be Stephen Hawking. He was born in Oxford, England on Jan. 8th, 1942. What a pity On March 14th, 2018, the world-famous British scientist1 in Cambridge, UK.

    After leaving high school Hawking went first to Oxford University 2he studied physics and then went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology(宇宙学). As he himself admited, he didn't work hard. And he did 3work. However, he always enjoyed thinking everything around him, especially the universe. Today, he is called the King of the Universe.

    It was at the age of 21 that Hawking first4something was wrong with him. He started to bump into some things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she 5 him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. He6to have motor neuron disease(运动神经元病), an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move 7the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no ways to help him. He might die before 23.

    8, Hawking became very depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, "After my illness was diagnosed(诊断), I was very9with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile(值得做的) things I could do." Then Hawking got married and found a job at Cambridge University as a professor. We strongly believe that his story shows that 10, how had their situation is, should lose hope. "Life is not fair." He once said, "You just have to do the best you can in your own situation."

    It was a hot, sunny day .The waves(浪)off Santa Barbara were almost three feet high because of a strong wind. Surfers(冲浪者)were having fun. Then the fun 1. One surfer started shouting. Surfers on the 2 saw his arms going up and down. He went under water. Then he came back 3, shouting for help.

    "He was in big 4," said one woman. She called 911. He was still shouting and 5.

    They could not see a shark(鲨鱼), but they 6 the surfer was being attacked(袭击)by one. Again, the surfer went under. Four surfers jumped onto their boards and swam quickly out to the surfer. By the time they got to him, he was 7. The shark had given up on the taste of the swimwear and the fight with the surfer.

    The 24-year-old man was in great pain, but he was still alive. The surfers put him on a board and swim back to the beach. "I don't think he's going to make it," said someone on the beach. "Look at his 8."

    A helicopter(直升机)arrived quickly and doctors jumped out. They 9 the surfers and the woman for their help, and took the man to the hospital. An hour later, the hospital said that the surfer would keep on 10. The man lost one of his legs but he was still so lucky
