Millie is a little girl who is at the age of nine. She is a pupil in a primary school. She works hard at her subjects. In class, she takes an active part in all kinds of activities. She looks smarter than her classmates.

    One day, she was doing her homework after supper as usual. Her father was not in. Her mother was taking a shower in the bathroom. After she finished her homework, Millie asked her mother to check it for her, but her mother didn't answer her. A few minutes later, her mother was still in the bathroom. Millie felt strange. She knocked at the door. But her mother had no answer. She pushed the door open and found her mother lying on the floor. At the same time, she smelled something terrible. It was the gas. She quickly opened the window, turned off the gas and called 120 and 110 for help. Soon some doctors and policemen came and sent her mother to the nearest hospital. Her mother was saved at last.

    Why did the little girl know how to do that? That was because she had learned how to save herself and others in danger in school.

    My name is Sam. I joined a club called" passing help" last month. Now let me tell you why I joined it.

    One evening this May, on my way home my old car was broken. It was 25 miles from my home. I wanted to take a taxi, but there was no car. I decided to take a bus home. I went to a bus stop nearby.

After a while, a bus came, but it did not go to my town. The bus driver was a young woman. She was kind and she told me which bus I should take. I waited there for about thirty minutes, but no bus came. At last a car came to me and a woman came out of the car. She was just the bus driver.

    "When I reached the bus station, I got to know that the bus to your town couldn't come, so I returned here. I just can't leave you here," she said," Get in my car and I will take you back to your home."

    "It is a long way." I said.

    "Come on, sir, "she said," Let's go."

    On the way she told me a story. A few days ago, there wasn't gas(汽油）in her car. An old man drove her up to a gas station and then back to her car.

    When we got to my home, I wanted to give her some money to thank her, but she didn't accept it." I only want to help others and do something nice for somebody. Pass it along." She said.

A six-year-old British girl, Mollie Price, is opening up her third candy store "Mollie's". She is said to be one of Britain's youngest bosses. She sells both British and American candy. The girl would like to open more candy stores in the future. "It might sound crazy, but believe me," Mollie says.

"It was Mollie's idea to open up the shop. It is Mollie who runs the candy stores," her mother Becky, her "business partner" says.

Her mother says all the stores are put together and stocked(进货) by mollie. Mollie works in one of the stores every Saturday, and then gets up early on Sunday to go to the company's product supplier(供应商). She asks her friends to taste the sweets to decide which ones are good. She's good at smart marketing. For example, if the weather is really cold, she sells the Mr. Whippy ice cream more cheaply than when it's hot outside.

"Children have the best ideas. I tell my mom what I think and she always says I have good ideas. It's just because I know what other children like." Mollie says.

One day, however, I 3 ended our friendship. I remember that day clearly. We were sitting in the 4 . The teacher was handing back our 5 exam papers. I had done very badly. I was never good at 6 maths problems. I felt so 7 that I wouldn't speak to anyone. At lunchtime, I stayed in the classroom alone. Suddenly, I heard a 8 . It was Vanilla. " You look very unhappy, " she said quietly. " What's wrong?"I looked at her for a while, but said 9 . I knew Vanilla had got a good grade in the exam. I thought she was 10 me. I stayed silent, but Vanilla didn't go away. She kept asking me questions, " Is it because of the exam? Do you want me to tell you the right 11 ?"I looked away from her. When I looked up again, Vanilla had gone. And so had my exam paper! I didn't know what to do. I looked for my paper everywhere, but couldn't find 12 . 

In the afternoon, Vanilla came up to my desk and gave my exam paper 13 to me. I looked at it and got a big surprise. Vanilla had written the correct answers next to every one of my mistakes. How 14 she was! My face turned red. I held her hands and said, "Thank you." That afternoon, 15 Vanilla and I were on the way home, I felt quite happy and thanked her again. We are still best friends.
