In my spoken English class, I asked the students about their university life. To my surprise, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} . After their highly controlled(控制) high school lives, they were having difficulty getting used to (习惯) the free time in the university. When I asked them to describe their high school lives, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} they got up at six in the morning and studied until ten or even later at night. Most of this time was spent doing lots of homework.
When they entered the university, in my opinion,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} to spend all their waking hours studying. They should also take an active part in social activities. They should learn to divide their time outside of class between sport sand clubs. What's more, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} watching TV and chatting with their roommates. But what surprised me most was that many of them did not seem happy because{#blank#}5{#/blank#} . They felt that they should be doing something else what ever they were doing. That's why they were not happy.
To those students, my advice is: Get used to it and learn to make decisions for yourselves.

    I went through some difficult times, dealing with the pressures of growing up. I found it hard to communicate with my mother. Relations between us became difficult.

One day, I ran away from home and stayed away for many hours. When I returned home at night, I saw all the pain, anger and disappointment on my mother's face. ①      . We agreed to have breakfast together the next morning. It was a turning point in both of our lives and our relationship.

We decided to go to a restaurant. On our way to the table I noticed my mother had two notebooks. I asked her what they were for. She explained to me that sometimes it was easier to write down our feelings rather than talk about (A) them. We would write down our feelings in the form of a letter. It could be as long or as short as we wanted.

    Our first topic was “Why I'm so angry?” I wrote a half page, and my mom filled up nearly three pages. (B) I watched tears run down her face as she wrote. I never realized anyone could hide so much anger. After we finished writing, we exchanged our notebooks. As soon as I started reading my mother's words, I began to cry and so did she. When we finished reading, we discussed our feelings. ②      . Our talk helped me realize so many things I had never thought of before, not only about my mother but also about other people.

     My mother and I continue to use our notebooks as a way of communicating our anger and worries, and our happiness as well. We know that no matter how we feel about each other, our notebooks are a safe place to express our feelings. We have come to an agreement that at the end of each letter we write, “I love you.”

      If you think you're too shy and want to be a little braver, try the following. You can make it.

             There's no need to hide it. When they get to know you're a shy kid, they'll understand you better. This also helps you feel easier in talks.

              When you smile, people think you're friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too, and ①most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.

      Take one small step at a time. If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about people around you.         Doesn't it make you want to keep talking to that person?

      Turn your attention elsewhere.         ②Don't waste(浪费) time worrying about your looks or whether people like you or not Don't lose heart Each time after you say “hi” or smile at someone for the first time, say “I did it!” to yourself.        

Keep trying and one day you'll never be shy when you talk to others.

    Oct. 16 is World Food Day. The UN started the day in 1979. It's used to remind people not to waste food and fight hunger.

    A big number of people in the world still don't have enough food to eat. Food shortage(匮乏) is a big problem worldwide. Right now, there are more than 1000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die of hunger each year.

    There are several reasons why there are food shortages. First,there have been more droughts(干旱) and floods recently. Also,a growing population makes feeding everyone more difficult.

    Another big reason is food waste. Most people don't realize how much food they throw away every day. Sometimes we cook too much, or we don't use it goes bad. The average(平均的) person throws away 50kg of food every year. According to the UN, more than third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste each year.

    That is over 1,300,000 million kilograms of food being wasted. The amount of food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people, and the food wasted in Latin America can feed 300 million a year.

    So think twice next time you want to throw away food.By cutting down on food waste, we could help put food on the empty plates of some hungry children. Only order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant. If you can't eat all you order, take the rest home. Don't be too picky about food so that you don't leave any on your plate. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don't buy too much. Don't cook too much.

    When you throw away food, you are not just wasting the food itself. Resources(资源) are also wasted while growing, transporting and cooking the food. These things all take energy, time and water.

The moon landing

    It's always been man's dream to fly like a bird in the sky. Back in 1865, a French writer once wrote about man's landing on the moon on a special airplane with three people inside, and the first person to touch the ground on the moon would be American. That was considered (被认为) to be a crazy (疯狂的) idea at that time. Over one hundred years later, on July 20, 1969, however, this impossible dream did come true.

    It was a big day in the history of the 20th century. On that day, a special airplane took three brave (勇敢的) men from Cape Kennedy at a speed of 35,533 feet per second. The trip to the moon took 103 hours and 30 minutes. In fact, it was the first time that man ever "walked" in outer space. On the trip, two of the spacemen spent two hours on the moon walking like flying, and the other stayed in the spaceship. They studied the appearance of the moon. Four days later, the spaceship Apollo 11, returned to the earth and the astronauts were welcomed by people around the country. The man who took the first step, Neil Armstrong, said, "That's a small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." This has been said again and again in every language around the world since then.
