My name is Eric Green. I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} a student. I have a sister.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} name is Lucy Green. She is a student, too. I can play tennis, but not {#blank#}3{#/blank#}.Lucy {#blank#}4{#/blank#} sports ,too. She {#blank#}5{#/blank#} tennis every Sunday. Lucy and I both like {#blank#}6{#/blank#} food. She likes salad and {#blank#}7{#/blank#}.I like {#blank#}8{#/blank#} carrots very much. So, we like vegetables and we eat{#blank#}9{#/blank#} a lot every day, because we{#blank#}10{#/blank#}they are healthy.

    One night, lots of people were running through the streets, shouting and throwing rocks. It was all about a soccer game. They were soccer {#blank#}1{#/blank#} and they were angry that their team had lost an important game. They went completely out of control.

    It's common {#blank#}2{#/blank#} fans to get crazy. So many cities choose to put more police officers on the streets after big games. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} makes fans so crazy?

    Some experts believe it goes back to a long-ago time when humans lived in tribes (部落). These tribes {#blank#}4{#/blank#} each other for food, land and power (权力). You supported your tribe's warriors (武士) because your life {#blank#}5{#/blank#} on them.

    Today's“warriors” are athletes (运动员). Cheering for {#blank#}6{#/blank#} can bring out the same life-or-death feelings. That can be exciting and fun. It also {#blank#}7{#/blank#} problems if the strong feelings last (持续) hours or days after a game has ended.

    On the other hand, some people say that being a sports fan can make you a happier and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} person. Research shows that if you have a strong connection to a team, you might make strong connections with people. Many fans feel a sense of belonging to a group. They are less {#blank#}9{#/blank#} and have more enjoyable social lives.

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#} your favorite teams make you a bit crazy sometimes, it's only because you love them. And that's good — if you can remember that it's only a game.

    When a wolf was walking near a village, he met a dog. It {#blank#}1{#/blank#} to be a very bony(瘦骨嶙峋的)dog. The wolf had not been hungrier than usual. So he began to move {#blank#}2{#/blank#}towards the dog, while the dog backed away.

    "Let me remind you," said the dog. "it will be an unhappy thing for you to eat me now. Look at {#blank#}3{#/blank#}ribs(肋骨). I am nothing but skin and bone. But let me tell you something in private. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a few days my master will give a wedding feast (宴会) for his only daughter.

    You can guess how fine and fat I will be on the leftovers(残羹剩饭) from the table.

Then it will be the best time for you {#blank#}5{#/blank#} me."

    The wolf couldn't help thinking how nice it would be to cat a fine and fat dog instead of the bony one. So he went away.

    Some days later, the wolf came back for the promised feast. He found the dog in his {#blank#}6{#/blank#}yard, and asked him to come out and was ready to eat him.

    "Sir," said the dog. "I shall be glad to have you cat me. I will be out as {#blank#}7{#/blank#}as

the porter(看门的人) opens the door."

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the "porter" was a huge dog to be very unkind towards wolves, which the wolf knew by a {#blank#}9{#/blank#}experience. He learnt an important lesson {#blank#}10{#/blank#}what you can get when you can get it. So he decided not to wait and ran away as fast as possible.
