My name is Jim White. I 1 a schoolboy. My school is 2 my home. Every day, it takes me 3 to get there. The road is not 4. So I can't go to school 5. I often get there by bus or 6. It takes me thirty 7 to get there by bus and an hour on foot. I must get up very early every morning. I have no time 8 breakfast at home. I often have something for breakfast 9 or on the bus. I don't want to 10 school. So sometimes I run to school.

    I'm Dave. I'm from the west of Ireland. When I finished university, I1to leave Ireland to find work. Although I2home. I enjoyed living in London for two years. But after that, I felt I needed a3. so I bought a ticket to Ecuador ,a country that many of my friends were talking about. Two months later,4was in Quito，a beautiful city high up in the mountains. First，I explored(考察)the city. Next，I decided to walk on the Camino Real，the most important Inca road. It was hard work. 5the views(景色)were really wonderful. During the walk，there were more and more clouds and it was6to see. Suddenly I heard some magical Irish music. It 7me of home. “How could it be?”I just 8believe it. I thought l was dreaming. The next day, when I came down for breakfast at my hotel. I9found out the truth. 10 was practicing Irish music at the hotel garden(花园). It was an American tourist who was making the magical music of my home!

    My dad was a fisherman(渔夫), and he loved the sea. He had a 1 , but it was not always 2 to make a living on the sea. He stayed out late 3 he wanted to catch enough fish for the family.

    When the weather was 4 , my father didn't work, and he drove me to school. Before he left, he would 5 me a big kiss(亲吻)on the face and tell me to be a good boy.6 for me, it was so embarrassing(尴尬的) .

    I remembered the day. I was 12 years old. I thought I was too 7 for a good-bye kiss. We got to school and came to a stop. He had his usual big smile(微笑) and started to kiss 8 before he left, but I put my hand up and said, "No, dad." It was the 9 time that I talked to him in that way. So he got a(n) 10. I said, "Dad, I'm too old for a good-bye kiss. I'm too old for any kind of kiss. "My dad 11 me for a long time, and his eyes were filled with tears (眼泪). I 12 saw him cry. "You are right," he said, "You are a big 13. I won't kiss you anymore."

    It wasn't long after that when my dad went to the sea for fish but he never 14. I was so sad that I wanted one more15 from my father.

    This is a touching moment when a giraffe gave a sad goodbye to a dying worker. The 1 spent his whole life cleaning the giraffes' home at a Dutch 2. The 54-year-old worker had a cancer (癌症). He asked to put his hospital 3 in the giraffes' home at the zoo. In a touching moment, one of the giraffes went to the man and 4 him a kiss goodbye.

    Mario has 5  in the zoo for over thirty years. He asked for a moment to say goodbye to his workmates and the animals at the zoo. He had no 6 and he lived alone. A charity group helped to send Mario back to the zoo. They usually help 7 persons finish their dying wishes.

    "It was very nice that we could do 8  to help his last wish come true," Mr Veldboer said. "It was a very special moment. The giraffe came with 9 eyes. He looked at Mario for some time, and kissed him 10. You saw him smiling."
