It was only with her death that Nurse Edith Cavell became known, but her story became one of the great epics (ASF) of the First World War. Edith Cavell, born on December 4, 1865 at Northfolk, England, studied nursing, and became First Matron(护士长) at a hospital in Brussels, Belgium. During the war she became an important link in a chain of people helping the wounded and stray Allied soldiers (离散的盟军士兵) back to their own lines. The Germans caught her and she was sentenced to be shot. This brave woman, who had helped over two hundred soldiers to safety, acted with great pride during the short trial(审判). She said at the end her only regret was that she could not have done more than she did.

    Edith Cavell was killed by several German soldiers on October 12, 1915 after an American's request to spare her life had been rejected. There is a statue(雕塑) of her in London, arid Mount Edith Cavell in Canada is named for this heroic nurse.

    Erik was a fourteen-year-old boy. He thought he was a young man but his parents didn't think so. They told him," When you begin to think about helping others, you'll be a young man. "

    One morning, his parents gave Erik some money to buy hamburgers at a store. He saw an old man there. The man looked very sick. Erik went up to him and found that the old man had lost his money and hadn't had anything for his breakfast. Erik took the old man to the nearest restaurant. But the man ordered only a glass of water for himself. Erik felt sorry for him, so he asked the waiter to bring the man some bread and a cup of coffee. The old man was so hungry that he ate up all the food very soon. After that, the man told Erik that he would never forget his kindness. Erik was very pleased when he heard what the old man said," You are a very good young man. "

    To their surprise, the food was a present because that day was the birthday of the boss.

Daniel Olin was 11 years old when his parents moved to Canada. He liked his new school and made friends there，but then things at home started to change. His mum and dad began to argue and the arguments got worse and worse until one day，Daniel's mum left. With his father working long hours，to run away. And that's what he did. 

Very early one terribly cold morning when the snow was deep on the ground，he packed a bag with some clothes，some chocolate and a map of Canada and set off to a forest. He ran and ran until he could hardly breathe. His feet were heavy with the snow but he still walked on through deep snow, not even watching where he was going.

Then，disaster struck. A rock hidden by the deep snow caught his feet and Daniel fell to the ground. He had broken the bone. He was very cold and was starting to feel tired，but he knew that if he fell asleep in the snow, he would certainly die from the cold.

A tree shook ahead. From within the branches（树枝），a pair of yellow eyes watched Daniel. The puma had been following him. A puma is a large wild cat with claws that could tear（撕开） Daniel into pieces. But instead of moving in for the kill，arms and legs. Daniel was too frightened to move，but soon the warmth of the animal reached Daniel and he began to feel better. From time to time（口鼻） against Daniel and rocked his head gently. Clearly，the puma knew that Daniel must not fall asleep. This animal should have been a real danger to Daniel and yet the boy began to feel safe. 

They remained like that for several hours until Daniel and the puma heard voices. The rescue （援救） team had found them. 

A young prince had just recently become King. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} So he called all the wise men from his country and ordered them to look for books for him to read and learn from.

Five years passed quickly. The wise men returned with 5,000 books full of wisdom（智慧）. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} So he ordered the wise men to condense（简缩）the books and bring them back to him. Another five years passed. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Five more years passed. The wise men brought back 50 books but the king still felt there were too many books.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} The king took no interest in reading this book, and he didn't have time to learn from it. More problems broke out in his country—his enemies attacked and diseases affected（敌人攻击和疾病影响）his people. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Finally, the king was killed by a ruler in the neighbor country and his country was destroyed（毁灭）.

Waiting for wisdom to come to you is just a way of being lazy. Only if we set out to find wisdom can we make a difference.

A．During the next few years, the wise men worked hard to condense the 50 books into one book and show it to the king.

B．He did not have the wisdom to solve these problems.

C．To rule his country, he decided to learn all the wisdom of world.

D．The wise men brought 500 books, but the king still thought there were too many.

E．Seeing so many books, the king was so surprised that he didn't know how to start.

Last summer, my parents and I were planning to travel. We finally {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (choose) Shanghai. Shanghai is a large, crowed and modern city but it also has lots {#blank#}2{#/blank#} historical places. 

We comfortably stayed there for two days. On the first day, we went to Nanjing Road. There were many shopping malls and people, so we had to speak {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(loud) to make our voice be heard. We also bought several {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(ticket) to visit some places of interest. In the morning, we took {#blank#}5{#/blank#} walk along the Huangpu River. After {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(visit) the Bund in the evening, we went to the Oriental Pearl Tower. It is a famous place in Pudong and one of the world's {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (tall) TV towers. 

On the second day, we visited Xintiandi. We saw many modern shops and restaurants in traditional shikumen-style houses. The scenery(风景) was really amazing, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} we went back early. Because it was hotter than {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(I) hometown. 

The trip to Shanghai {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(leave) an unforgettable memory on me. I liked both the new and the old Shanghai. Two days was a bit short. I hope I can go to Shanghai again some time in the future.
