Where is Love? How can we find Love?

    Once a little boy wanted to find Love. He knew it was a long trip to where Love lived, so he got his things 1 with some pizzas and drinks and started off. When he passed three streets, he saw an old woman 2 in the park and watching some birds.

    She looked very 3. The boy gave her a 4 . She took it and smiled at him.

    The smile was so beautiful that he wanted to see it again, so he gave her a Coke. She smiled once again. The boy was very happy.

    They sat there all the afternoon, eating and smiling, but they said 5. When it got dark, the boy decided to leave. But after he walked a few meters, he 6, ran back to the old woman and gave her a hug. The woman gave him her biggest 7ever.

    When the boy opened the door of his house, his mother was surprised to see the8 on his face and asked what made him so glad. The boy answered, "I had lunch with Love. She has got the most beautiful smile in the world." At the same time, the old woman's son was also surprised at his mother's pleasure and asked why.

    "I ate a pizza in the park with 9," she said, "and he is much younger than I expected."

    If the world is 10 of love, we can enjoy a better life.

    Some people believe that dreams can tell them what will happen in the future. 1 knows why this is so, but there are many stories about people who had dreams that came true. One of these people was a man 2John Chapman, who lived in Swaffham in England many years ago.

    John Chapman dreamt that he was standing on London Bridge and a man told him how to become rich. John Chapman was a poor man and he needed 3 the next day he decided to leave for London. It was 100 miles from Swaffham to London. He walked for a few days and at last he 4 London Bridge. There were many people on the bridge, but they weren't 5 in John Chapman. No one6him. After three days, John Chapman decided to go home,7 before he could do this, a shopkeeper came up to him.

    "I've been watching you," he said. "Are you 8 someone?"

    "Yes," said John. "I had a dream about a man here. He would help me to get much money. "

    "Oh," said the shopkeeper. "You shouldn't believe in dreams. 9believe in dreams, I'd be in Swaffham right now. I had a dream a few days ago about a man called John Chapman from Swaffham. He had 10 in his garden, near an old apple tree. "

    John Chapman was   11 what the shopkeeper said. At once he went home and dug near an old apple tree. He soon found many pieces of gold. He was so happy 12he gave some of the gold to his church. For the rest of his life, he was a rich man.

    Every year, our school has a dance for all the students. It's a little funny seeing friends in clean shoes and trousers or colorful dresses, instead of the usual school uniform.

    Most of us think the dance is great fun-even the teachers enjoy being there. 1, two weeks ago someone said that there would be no live band this year-only CDs.

    "I don't believe it！"Amy cried out during the lunch break, "Someone said the school couldn't2a band, and they think it's too noisy anyway," added Daniel.

    "Well, I don't think it's good enough without a band!" said Angela, "and I'm going to see what can be done."

    Angela was as good as her word. In the afternoon she went3to see the school headmaster who agreed to give the situation some more thought. And he suggested that one possibility for having a band was to increase the price ticket from $ 5 to $ 10. Angela had to find out whether the students would like to do that.

    "I need all of you to help me," she told our group before school the next day.

    "Mr Berry gave me a list of all the names, and suggested we ask each other their4about the band and the extra cost." During the day we asked around as Angela suggested and wrote down people's feelings about the band and the cost.

    We were amazed how much support there was for the band and5agreed to pay the extra $5, "I'm surprised." smiled Mr Berry, when we gave him the results. "I really thought that only a few people wanted their band and that the cost would be too high. OK. Angela, your next task is to find a good band and line them up for the dance."

    Angela jumped6and broke the news to Amy and Daniel. "You're amazing, "smiled Daniel to Angela as he thought how close they came to having a less than perfect dance.

   Jack and Eason were walking through the forest. They knew that it was dangerous to do this because many wild animals live in the forest. As friends, they agreed that they would stay together and help each other if there was any danger.

    All of a sudden, they saw a large bear running toward them. Jack climbed a nearby tree. He didn't think about his friend at all.

    Unluckily, Eason did not know how to climb. He could only lie down on the ground. He held his breath and pretended(假装) to be dead.

    The bear came close to Eason. He smelled the man for a moment and left. You see, bears do not eat dead animals or people.

    After the bear walked away, Jack climbed down and went to Eason on the ground.

    "Are you okay? Did the bear hurt you? If only you could climb a tree," he said, not knowing that he didn't' follow their agreement(约定).

    Eason then answered, "Do you know what the bear told me? He told me do not believe afalse friend!"
