Recently I failed an exam. However, after I came out of my teacher's office, I told myself, "Smile! It's not so serious."

    I smiled a big smile and it worked a little, really.

Everyone gets frustrated sometimes. I used to be always influenced by {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (press) and I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (be) often in low spirits. But one day I came {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a sentence in the Bible. "Do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself, let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day." It suddenly struck me, "{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (worry) about a problem doesn't help. Why not just give a big smile and face up the trouble?"

    Now every time I want to cry, I remind myself that laughter is better than {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (tear) and anger. I{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (convince) that there's something magical about a smile. A smile helps me recover confidence and gives me the courage to move on.

    Remember, whenever {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (face) with a setback, whenever you've been treated {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (unfair),{#blank#}9{#/blank#} it takes is determination and you can feel happy again. Smile at life,{#blank#}10{#/blank#} it will shine on you.

    A man looking at his Smartphone while walking across a railway{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(have) a close knock on Oct 22. He was so{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(absorb) in his Smartphone that he did not see a train approaching until it brushed past him{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(throw) him to the ground. This should serve {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a warning that people should be aware of their surroundings, especially{#blank#}5{#/blank#} crossing roads.

    {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(lucky), the man survived, but the incident forced the driver {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(stop) the train. An 18-minute delay followed the incident{#blank#}8{#/blank#}led to a break in the running of other trains on the route.

    Smartphone {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(addict) has spread like an infectious disease. It's evident that it will do great harm to society. What's even{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(bad), some addicts become impatient with relatives and friends. Some people blame the Smartphone for the sad story, yet in fact people's weakening self-control and self-discipline are to blame.

    December 16, 2013 was my birthday. It was the day {#blank#}1{#/blank#} my best friend left me. I remember it as if it were yesterday. It was also our Christmas concert. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(offer) a job in Colorado, my friend's father had to leave our city. And his family had to go with {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(he). Mr. Escalante, our old headmaster, brought her whole family up on the stage, and they made a big {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(announce) about how they {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(leave). After the concert ended, I was in a total mess. I felt as if I had made something torn out of my body that could never be {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(full) replaced. My best friend's name was Hannah Zona.

    Ever since I was a little girl, my family was always with the Zonas. We would go to the fair, did anything you could think of. {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(live) so close {#blank#}8{#/blank#} each other, we could always go to each other's houses after school. {#blank#}9{#/blank#}she is about 7 years older than me, we act like we are sisters. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(word) can't describe how much I miss her. When she comes back to California, it's like we were never apart. Hannah Zona is the best friend you could ask for. No one could ever replace her and the love I have for her.

Emma was on her way home when she heard a sudden scream. Looking around, she saw a little boy on the sidewalk gasping(急喘) for air, his {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(frighten) mother begging for help. Emma rushed to the boy, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} face had turned purple. "What's wrong?" "A candy! In his throat!" It was lucky that Emma had learned how {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(perform) the Heimlich maneuver(海姆利克急救法) at school. She acted quickly. Soon, the boy coughed up a piece of candy and began breathing again. He {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(save) in time.
