Before going to bed, he said to the owner（所以者）of the hotel,“Excuse me,sir. Will you please {#blank#}3{#/blank#} me up at a quarter to five tomorrow morning?

The young man asked, “Have you {#blank#}5{#/blank#} an alarm clock? Maybe it can {#blank#}6{#/blank#} me. “Yes, here you are, young man,” the owner said. The young man {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the owner happily. But when he looked at the alarm clock closely, it {#blank#}8{#/blank#} there was something wrong with it. “Will it {#blank#}9{#/blank#} on time?” he asked.“Sure! You just shake(晃动) it at a quarter to five and it will ring,” answered the owner. The young man couldn't fall {#blank#}10{#/blank#} all the night. Because he was afraid of missing the train.

Helen: Hi, Peter. I think I've made Alice {#blank#}1{#/blank#} and I'm not sure what to do about it.

Peter: What {#blank#}2{#/blank#}?

Helen:You know Ann is Alice's best friend, right?

Peter: Uh-huh.

Helen: Well, the more I got to know Ann, the more I realized that we have a lot in common, so we've been spending more time together {#blank#}3{#/blank#}.

Peter:But what's wrong with that?

Helen:Umm...it makes Alice unhappy because she {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Ann is now better friends with me than with her.

Peter: I see. Mmm...why don't you ask Alice to join you each time you do something with Ann? Then she won't feel left out.

Helen: Oh, good idea! That can make our {#blank#}5{#/blank#} stronger.

    It was nine on a cold winter night. I hurried to go home from work on my motorbike.

    At the last crossing, while I was {#blank#}1{#/blank#}for the green light, I saw an old man walking toward me. He {#blank#}2{#/blank#}me and I felt a little nervous. The old man said  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}"Excuse me. Could you please help me? "I looked at him up and down. He looked about 70 years old.

    The old man took out a 10-yuan bill and said to me, "You see the old lady over there? She is selling baked(烤)sweet potatoes. Could you just {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the money and buy one from her? "He pointed at an old lady selling something about fifty{#blank#}5{#/blank#}away in the corner.

    "But why don't you go and buy it {#blank#}6{#/blank#}?""I was puzzles(迷惑的). The old man continued. "That old lady is my wife and it's her {#blank#}7{#/blank#}day to sell baked sweet potatoes. Just now I called her. She told me that there was only one sweet potato left and she wouldn't go home until all the sweet potatoes were {#blank#}8{#/blank#}.

    But I know she can't stand the cold because her legs hurt. I'm very worried about her."

    At that time, I understood why the old man asked me to buy his {#blank#}9{#/blank#}sweet potato. I felt really warm and moved. Without taking the money, I rode to the old lady quickly and bought the last one. As I waved goodbye to the old man. I {#blank#}10{#/blank#}see him standing there with a thankful smile.

The students began to {#blank#}3{#/blank#} for the lunch. Some of the students were getting water from the lake. Some were washing vegetables and fruit. At about twelve o'clock the lunch was ready.

    The food was {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. After lunch, they had a great time singing, dancing, drinking and talking. At three o'clock they began to climb the hill. The hill was very tall, but they all tried to climb to the top(顶部) of it. On the top of the hill, they felt very excited.
