But the boy in the front seat did not move4the old man went up to him, Sam looked at him. Then he said again to the old man in a 5voice,“This boy will be glad to give you his seat.” This time the boy6it. His face 7red. He got up at once. Then the old man sat down 8 said to the boy, “Thank you, my boy."“Most people want 9nice,” Sam told the old man. “They just forget that. Sometimes they need a little10. I am glad to give them such a push sometimes, too.”

    I have a good friend. 1 name is Peter. We study in Beijing Sunshine Secondary School. We are in the same class. He sits in front of 2. He likes Music lesson best. He 3 many CDs. He likes 4 music very much. He likes playing football, too. After school we often play football in the 5. He is very helpful. We often help each 6.

    Peter is not a Chinese. He is from 7. He comes to Beijing 8 his family. His father is a doctor and his mother is a nurse. They work from Monday 9 Friday. At weekends, his mother likes shopping and his father likes fishing. Sometimes they go to the park. They all like Chinese food. They 10 very happy.

    Whenever my child caused me to change my schedule, I thought to myself, "We don't have time for this." Therefore, the two words I most commonly spoke to my child were: "Hurry up". But my promise to 1 was made almost three years ago, and I began my journey to grasp what 2 in life.

    My younger daughter is my living reminder of why I must keep trying to slow down.

    The two of us had taken a bike ride to the 3. After buying an ice cream for my daughter, she sat down at a table 4 admiring it she held in her hand. Suddenly a look of worry came across her face. "Do I have to rush, Mama?"

    I could have 5. Perhaps the pains of a 6 life don't ever completely disappear, I thought sadly. As my child looked up at me waiting to know 7 she could take her time, I knew I had a choice. I could sit there in sorrow thinking about the number of times when I rushed my child through life…or I could 8 the fact that today I'm trying to do things 9. I chose to live in today.

    "You don't have to rush," I said 10. Her whole face immediately brightened and her shoulders relaxed. And so we sat side-by-side talking. There were even moments when we sat in 11  just smiling at each other.

    When she got to the last bite, she held out a spoonful of ice crystals and sweet juice for me. "I 12 the last bite for you, Mama," my daughter said 13. I realized I just got the deal of a lifetime. I gave my child a little time… and 14, she gave me her last bite and reminded me that things taste sweeter and love comes 15 when you stop rushing through life.

    My kids and I decided to go to the supermarket over the weekend. On the way, we saw a man holding a piece of paper that said, " 1 my job. Family to feed."

    At this store, a 2 like this was not normal. My 10-year-old kid noticed him and said it must be awful to have to stand 3 in the cold wind.

    In the store, I asked each of my kids to4 something they thought our "friend" there would appreciate(感激). They got 5 , a sandwich and a bottle of juice. Then my 17-year-old kid suggested giving him a 6 . All the other kids and I thought it was a good idea.

    When we handed him the bag of 7 , he lit up and thanked us with watery 8. When I handed him the gift card, saying he could use it for9his family might need, he burst into tears.

    This has been a wonderful 10 for our family. For days the kids have been looking for others we can 11 ! Things would have played out so 12 if I had simply said, "No, we really don't have 13 to give more. "Stepping out not only helped a father in 14 , it also gave my kids the15 taste of helping others. It'll go a long way with them.

Hi! Oliver,

How are you? I want to tell you something about my {#blank#}1{#/blank#} to the city space museum two days ago. I never visited there before, so I was very excited! When my sister and I arrived, we started to explore. It's very large and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} interesting and exciting objects to touch.

The {#blank#}3{#/blank#} room looks like deep space. There is information about different planets with a game at the end. The winner can create a name for a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Isn't that exciting?

The next room looks like the inside of a spaceship. You can touch an astronaut's spacesuit and you can see {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the astronauts prepare their food.

One day, Jenny brought her only son Max to a restaurant. When they left, Max wanted to throw away half of the sandwich that he couldn't cat. But Jenny stopped him "Wait! You should never1 any food!" The boy replied in a loud voice, "But I'm too 2 now!" Jenny didn't say anything but took it into her hand. As they walked out of the restaurant, Max spilled (洒出) some 3 on his coat because of carelessness. Without thinking, he just took it off and wanted to throw it away again. Jenny came up4 and said, "We can wash the juice off the coat. And do you know someone is wishing to have a coat like that?" However, Max answered angrily, "I don't care!"

At this, Jenny was very surprised and decided to do5 . For a while, she turned to Max and said softly, "You know when you don't 6 what you have, there is someone else wishing for all that you have. "Max just kept in 7 . 

On their way home, they saw an old man8 around the corner. Mother asked Max to give the piece of sandwich to him. 9 he was unhappy, he walked towards the old man and handed the sandwich. "I'm not sure whether you want this or not. It's just our leftovers (剩菜). " "Oh, my God! I can't tell you10 this means to me. I am so hungry now. " The old man thanked Max again and again for giving him food, which really made Max feel ashamed. Some 11 later, they met another old man with few clothes on him. This time, Max 12 before him without thinking twice and asked, "I wonder if this coat will help you. But there is a juice stain (污渍) on it. " The old man was so glad that he 13 the coat immediately and said, "Thanks so much. You don't know what this means to me. It is so14 these days. "

With his face turning red, Max went back to his mother and said, "Mum, I am so 15 . You're right. " And then he could see a big smile on his mum's face. Exactly, in life what you want to throw away may be the very thing someone does wish to have.
