The police do many things for us. They help keep our things and us safe and help keep cars {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（move） safely. They take care of people who are {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (hurt). Then they send these people {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a doctor.

    The police go around town to see {#blank#}4{#/blank#} everything is all right. They get around town in many ways. Some of them walk or go by car. In some big cities, some of the police ride on {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(horse). It is strange.

    As {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (them) go around town, the police help people. Sometimes they find lost children and take them home. If the police see a fight，they will put {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(冠词) end to it right away. Sometimes people will ask the police how to get to a place in town. The police can always tell the people which way to go.

    Some police stand at crossings. They tell the cars when to go and when to stop. They help children {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (cross ) the street. They also help people who can't walk too {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (well).

    Without the police, our streets would not be safe. Cars might go too fast and hurt people. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(lose) people might never be found. The police do a good job. We need them. And we should thank them for a job well done.

    Lisa has always been fat. She wanted to lose weight, not only because she wanted to look more beautiful and healthier, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} also because it would make life easier.

    For example， it was difficult for Lisa {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (find) ready-made clothes. She had to ask a tailor(裁缝) to make clothes that were large enough. In the school, she needed a special chair that was {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (big) and stronger than other chairs. If she went for a walk, she got tired very {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (quick).

    She was also unhappy about the way people treated her sometimes. She couldn't enjoy having dinner with her friends {#blank#}5{#/blank#} she was afraid of getting fatter.

    But now things are quite different, Last month, her classmates were {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (prepare) for the School Art Week. They invited Lisa {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (play) the lead role of the Proud Queen(皇后) that was tall and fat. Lisa agreed and practiced a lot.

    Soon after the play, Lisa became a star. She did {#blank#}8{#/blank#} a good job that everyone remembered the Proud Queen. She even won the School Best Actress Award {#blank#}9{#/blank#} her wonderful performance.

    Now Lisa doesn't worry about being fat any {#blank#}10{#/blank#}. She believes in the English saying "Every dog has its day".

    Peter was the best table tennis player in his school and hardly ever lost a match. He hated losing anything. When he {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (win), he would feel really good. If he lost, he would feel terrible. It seemed to Peter that losing was {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (bad) thing in the world.

    A new kid, Albert, came to Peter's school. He was good at table tennis, too. Soon there would be a match {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Peter and Albert. Peter worked hard {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (get) ready for the match, but Albert didn't seem to think much of {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. When the match began, Albert was a real player. There was always a smile on his face while Peter looked serious all the time. Peter thought it was {#blank#}6{#/blank#} important to win the match that he even wanted to cheat(舞弊), but he lost in the end. "You played very well, Peter. I wonder {#blank#}7{#/blank#} we can play again sometime," said Albert.

    But Peter didn't feel happy and couldn't fall asleep that night.

    One day, Peter saw Albert playing basketball. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he lost again and again, the happy smile never left his face. Peter found Albert was great at table tennis but bad at basketball. However, he enjoyed {#blank#}9{#/blank#} of them. Whether he won or lost the game, Albert enjoyed it. Peter came to realize that {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (enjoy) a game was much more important than winning or losing it. He felt happier than ever before.
