    Once upon a time, there lived a very rich and wealthy man in a big town. He led a luxurious life. He always showed off his wealth to his friends and relatives.

    His son was studying in a distant city and he returned home for vacation. The rich man wanted to show off to his son how rich he was. But his son didn't like any luxurious lifestyle. However, the rich man wanted to make his son realize that his lifestyle was extremely rich and that poor people suffered a lot. He planned a day's visit to the entire town to show him the life of the poor people.

    The father and the son took a chariot and visited the entire town. They returned home after two days. The father was happy that his son was very quiet after seeing the poor people honoring(尊敬) the rich man and after witnessing the sufferings of the poor.

    The rich man asked his son, "Dear boy, how was the trip? Have you enjoyed it?"

    "Yes my dad, it was a great trip with you," the son replied.

    "So, what did you learn from the trip?" the father asked.

    The son was silent.

    "Finally you have realized how the poor suffer and how they actually live," said the father.

    "No father," replied the son. He added, "We have only two dogs, they have 10 dogs. We have a big pool in our garden, but they have a large bay(港湾) without any end! We have luxurious and expensive lights from various countries, but they have countless stars lighting their nights. We have a house on a small piece of land, but they have abundant fields that go beyond the horizon(视野). We are protected by huge and strong walls around our property(财产), but they bond with(与……连着) each other and surround themselves with their fellow beings. We have to buy food from them, but they are so rich that they can grow their own food."

    The rich father was stunned and speechless, on hearing his son's words.

    Finally the son added, "Dad, thank you so much for showing me who is rich and who is poor. Thank you for letting me understand how poor we really are!"

Amy is the most popular girl in our school. She is not only  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(秀丽的;标致的),but also very smart. When there is a competition (竞赛) that needs us to make teams, everyone wants to be with her. But she always 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (选 择) to be with me. Why? Because we are  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(最好的) friends!

Last week our school held a competition. It was about making money for poor people. "Why don't we make cookies by ourselves and then sell them to make money?" Amy said. The idea  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(听起来) great. Although we never cooked before, we still decided to have a  {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(尝 试). We searched for information about how to make  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(美味的) cookies on the Internet. Then we followed the steps to work. When everything was

We not only sold our cookies to our neighbours, but also went to sell them to {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(陌生人) in downtown. In the end we made the most money and won a medal(奖章). We were so  {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(感到自豪的) of ourselves!
