Tina woke up at midnight. She looked out of her window and saw a yellow light in the sky. It suddenly dived towards the ground. She heard a noise and saw a red light.

    The next morning, Tina mentioned it to her brother Tom. "I'm sure something landed in the forest near the hills as I heard a loud noise last night" she said, "Let's go there and have a look after school."

    At 6 p.m., Tina and Tom reached the forest. They heard some voices speaking a strange language, so they hid behind some gees and kept quiet. Then they saw an alien! It was tall, with a round head and a silver body. It was standing next to a long spaceship.

    The children were frightened. Suddenly, another alien appeared from the trees in front of them. It discovered them and made a terrible noise! The children ran away in fear.

    The next morning, Tina and Tom told their parents about the strange aliens. "They were very ugly. They had some hair, but they didn't have any feathers." said Tina.

    "There was something written on the spaceship," said Tom. "It looked like this. I wonder what it means." He drew some lines on a piece of paper.

    But Dad said, "Since no one else saw these aliens. I refuse to believe you. Now go to school!"

    The children opened their wings and flew to school together.

    Dad looked at the piece of paper with the strange marks on it. "It looks strange," he said, as he looked at the word "EARTH".

    Money makes the world go round. But money isn't anything when people don't know how to use it. And no one is better at using money than American investor(投资者)Warren Buffet. He is one of the richest men in the world.

    Buffet was born in Nebraska in the US in 1930. As a child, he loved making and saving money. He used to go door-to-door selling his own products(产品).

    After university, Buffet went on buying and selling shares(股票). Shares are small part of a company. He is good at predicting changes in companies. By 1962, he became a rich man. In 1990, he went one step further and became a billionaire(亿万富翁).

    In 2008, Warren Buffet became the richest man in the world. He has promised to give 99% of his wealth to charity(慈善) after he dies.

Deng Yaping used to be a well- known table tennis player. In my heart, she is a great h{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. 

When she was five years old, she s{#blank#}2{#/blank#} playing table tennis. She a {#blank#}3{#/blank#} many competitions and won four gold m{#blank#}4{#/blank#} in the Olympics. When she was twenty- four, she s{#blank#}5{#/blank#} playing. After that, she studied at Tsinghua University in Beijing and then went a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} to study. At first, her English wasn't good enough. Once a{#blank#}7{#/blank#} she worked hard and completed her doctor's d{#blank#}8{#/blank#} at Cambridge University seven years later. 

Deng has a strong w{#blank#}9{#/blank#} and always works hard at everything. W{#blank#}10{#/blank#} she does, she never gives up. She sets a good example to all of us!

It's always a good thing to have a hobby. For Miss Patty, a school bus driver in Erie County, her 1 of knitting（编织）has made her really touch the community.

Miss Patty always wanted to do 2 in her spare time to help the students. After a 3 with one of the students, things took a turn from knitting one hat to knitting more hats.

"The one boy gets on the 4 , and he goes 'what are you doing?' I said, 'I'm5 a hat. He said, 'That would be 6 having such a warm hat in icy winter.' So I said, 'What7 would you like?' That 8 everything," Miss Patty told the local（当地的）newspaper.

Several years have passed since that day, and Miss Patty has already knitted 7,0839 for students in her spare time. Sometimes she will get the 10 favorite color before she begins the project.

What is more moving is that Miss Patty buy all the materials（材料）using her own 11 . Some people do give 12 gift cards around the holidays to help, but she still 13 the materials with a lot of her own money.

Along with making hats for the students that will keep them 14 , Miss Patty also gets praise（表扬）for being a 15 friend to the students.

I was in the classroom. This was 1 first lesson in junior high school. It was 2 . I used to feel bored in Chinese classes, so I hoped my new Chinese teacher would be 3 . 

Here came a woman teacher. She 4 " Li" on the blackboard. "This is my family name, " she 5 . "You can call me Ms Li. Now tell me what you want me to do in my lessons. " We were surprised. 6 could a student ask a teacher to do things? Everyone was in silence(沉默). 

Ms Li smiled and said, "Don't be 7 . Just tell me what you really want to say about our Chinese 8 . I will try my best to meet all the needs of 9 . " Hearing what she said, we were excited and started to say our needs 10 worries. "Not too much 11 ";"Finish class on time";"Make the class fun". We talked a lot and Ms Li didn't stop us. 

When we finished, Ms Li said, "First, you will not have much homework, but you should 12 it on time. Second, my classes will be fun, 13 you can't play too much. Third, I will finish class on time. But you must 14 me carefully(认真地) in class. All right?""OK!" all of us answered happily. 

I think Chinese is very useful in our life, so it is really 15 to learn Chinese well. I'm sure our Chinese classes will have a lot of fun because of this interesting teacher. I may never get bored with Chinese classes.
