Summer vacation is coming. The Parkers are taking a 1 to Sanya. How will 2 go there? They have 3 ideas. The son Dale says, “Let's take the 4. Taking a journey by train is really relaxing. We 5 enjoy the beautiful scenery（风景） from the window.” The daughter Alice says, “ But the train station is far from our 6. If we go there by train, we have to 7 early. So let's drive a car.” “8?” asks Dale. “Because we can stop at any time we 9,” answers Alice. “But I think taking a journey by car is 10. What about taking a bus?” asks Dale. “Oh, I don't like that. There are always 11 people on the bus, and it 12 a long time,” says Alice. Then they go to ask for their 13 ideas. Mr. Parker wants to take the plane because it's the fastest (最快的) way. He says that they shouldn't spend too much time on the way, 14 they won't have much time to visit the city. But Mrs. Parker wants to go by ship, because it is cheap (便宜的) and they can save some 15. Which do you think is the best way?

    It was a hot day. At noon I stopped at the traffic lights and saw a homeless man walking up and down in the street.

     “This will make1 smile,” I thought, and I turned my car towards a frozen yogurt shop. I grabbed a2and filled it with a couple of flavors and came to the counter to weigh it. I wanted to add some toppings but my3was not enough for that, so I asked the lady if she would have change for a $ 100 bill. She said she wasn't

    allowed to accept a bill that large. All right, I thought and4for the yogurt. As I was about to leave, she said, “Madam, don't5your children. Please add their favorite things. ” I turned to her and said, “Thanks for your6but this is not for my children.

    It's for the homeless man in the street. ” She smiled with surprise and said, “Oh! That's really sweet of you. God bless you. ” She thought for a moment, and then she said, “I think we can do7than that. ”

    She took a bigger cup, filled it nicely and covered it with colorful toppings. Then she8it to me and said, “This is from me. Please give it to the homeless man. Let's treat him nicely. ” Now it was my turn to be 9. I said, “Thanks a lot. ” And I left with a big smile on my face. On the way I said to myself, “ Angels are10, aren't they? I believe them because I saw one today!”

    It all started at the beginning of the ninth grade. Angela found she couldn't see things clearly all the time. She became very 1, but she hoped nobody would know that. When her mother asked her to see the eye doctor, she didn't 2. But her mother's mind was made up.

    Three days later, Angela got new 3 and instructions from her doctor. "All of the kids will think I'm silly," Angela said. Her mother 4 and shook her head, "You look just as beautiful as before." But Angela didn't believe her.

    The next day, Angela kept the glasses in her pocket as she walked into the schoolyard. She felt 5. Suddenly, she heard her friend Della shout. Angela ran over to the other girls. "6 is the matter?" she asked.

    "My ring is gone!" Della cried. "My sister sent it to me from California. It's very special and I can't lose it." Angela and her friends began to 7 for the ring in the grassy area of the playground. Angela realized that she could do better 8 she could see better. She took the glasses out and put them on. Everything looked so different! So clear! She looked down at the ground and a bright light caught her 9. It was the ring.

    "Here it is," she shouted. She handed it to Della.

    "Thanks, Angela." Della said. "I 10 thought we'd find it." She paused (停顿). "Hey, I didn't know you wore glasses. They look great!"

    "Maybe wearing glasses won't be so bad after all," Angela thought.
