    A young woman in her 20s was sitting on the train, next to her mother. They both looked tired 1 excited.

    The young woman was looking out from the train's window. Suddenly, she shouted: "Mom,look, the trees are behind us!" Her voice was so 2that everyone on the train heard.

    Mom smiled. But a young couple sitting nearby looked at the young woman's childish behavior (行为 ) with pity. "Poor young woman. There must be something wrong with her3," they thought.

    A while later, the young woman4again: "Mom, look! The clouds are running with us!"

    Mom smiled again. And she seemed very happy with the young woman's words.

    5, the couple couldn't help asking the old woman: "Sorry if we offend (目犯) you. But why don't you take your daughter to a good doctor?"

    The old woman smiled and said: "Actually（其实）, we have just come from the6."

    "Then you should go to a better one. Because it seems that your daughter's situation hasn't 7," said one ofthem. They felt so bad for the old woman.

    "No, in fact I'm very happy with the treatment," said the mother. "My daughter was8from birth. Today, she is seeing the world for the first time."

    Every single person has a story. Don't judge people before you truly know them. The truth might9you.

    At eight o' clock last Sunday morning, I was sitting on the No. 101 bus to go to the zoo when I suddenly saw an old man lying on the side of the street. I told the driver 1 it. The driver stopped the bus. All the passengers (乘客) got off quickly to see 2 happened. A woman next to the old man was shouting for 3 She told us that a car just now hit the old man, 4 it didn't stop.

    The driver helped the old man without 5  He had to take the old man to the 6 or the old man might be in great danger. He asked 7 to wait for the next bus. I even helped the driver move the old man into the 8 

    Thanks to (多亏) the driver, the 9 could save the old man in time. When the old man's son thanked the driver, he told him what I 10 The old man's son wrote a thank-you letter to our school. My teacher praised (表扬) me. I said ! only did what I should do.

    An old friend from the US whom I was looking forward to staying with, telephoned from the airport to tell me that he had arrived. I was still at the 1 at that time, but I had got everything ready for his arrival. After letting him know where my house was, I told him that I had the 2 under the door-mat (门垫). 3 I was possible to be home rather late, I told him to go into the 4 and help himself to food and drink.

    Two hours later my friend 5 me from the house. At the moment, he said, he was listening to some of my records after having just had a truly wonderful 6. He had found a cooker and 7 two eggs and had helped himself to some cold chicken from the ice box. Now, he said, he was drinking a glass of orange juice and he hoped I would 8 him. When I asked him if he had reached the house without difficulty, he answered, "I was not able to find the key, but 9 the living room windows just by the apple tree were left open and you know what I could do."

    I listened to all this in 10. In front of my living room there was no apple tree at all.

    Billy's favourite colour was blue. But he couldn't see what blue looked like.

    A month after he was born, his mother noticed that his eyes were 1 from the other babies. "Billy would 2 be able to see. He is blind," the doctor said. Even so, with the hope to help Billy learn 3 about the world around him, his mother kept describing everything she saw for him.

    Not just through his mother's words, Billy saw 4 his ears and hands, too. He had perfect hearing. "In fact, he 5 see something that people don't notice."

    Though Billy lived in the6, he always believed a dream would light up his life. He found that he was 7 in computer science. So he began learning it at the age of seven. As a young boy, he 8 going to Stanford University someday. And for years of efforts, he finally achieved his dream.

    People wanted to find out the secret of his 9. Billy explained, "Just move forward! Don't let any difficulty 10 your dream from coming true. "

    You can't choose what you are given, but you can choose how you make use of it.

    Once a little boy found a caterpillar（蝴蝶幼虫）.One day the caterpillar climbed up a stick and started to create a cocoon（茧）. His mother told him the caterpillar was going to go through a(n) 1 and become a butterfly.

    The little boy watched every day, waiting for the coming out of the butterfly. One day it happened, a small hole 2 in the cocoon and the butterfly started to struggle（挣扎）to come out. At first the boy was 3, but soon he became worried. The butterfly was struggling so hard. But it looked like it was making no 4. Hoping to see it out, the boy decided to help. He cut the cocoon with scissors to make the hole 5 and the butterfly quickly flew out!

    To his surprise, the butterfly had an unexpectedly large body and small wings. He 6 to watch the butterfly, hoping that the wings would be dry and large to support the huge body. But nothing happened! It never was able to 7.

    The boy tried to 8 what had gone wrong. To help him, his mother took him to talk to a scientist. He 9 that the butterfly was supposed to struggle. Without the struggle, the butterfly would never fly. The boy's good wish 10 the butterfly.

    As you go through school life, keep in mind that struggling is an important part of any experience for growth. It is the struggle that cause us to develop our ability to fly.

    The world needs love and many people need our help. Several years ago, my teachers asked me to take part in a programme that helped those who were1. Each week, I spent an hour in the classroom helping children with schoolwork, art projects, games and other2, including eating. My mother is a teacher, so I am used to helping children. However, I found that working with children with a special need would3my life forever.

    At first, I thought it would be4to be with the children who were so different, but gradually I found there was something special about these students. So there was no need to worry about it. Each Thursday I was welcomed by the smiling faces of Thomas, Joey and Missy. Thomas had to sit on the wheelchair. He communicated with simple words5yes and no. Joey, a deaf girl, always welcomed me with a big smile. Missy was born with a kind of6and it made her really small for her age. In a normal classroom, it may be common to hear a teacher comfort a child who is tapping his pencil, speaking7, or making unnecessary noises. However, here, shouts, cries, and other noises were8. They were signs of excitement and different ways of communicating.

    Working with children with a special need has changed my life. It has made me9others' needs. One of my teachers believes that we should be part of something bigger than10. I never realized how true this was until I worked with these children. I believe everyone should get out and do something that makes a difference.
