     Hello, I'm Tom. I remember at one time, when we were running on the playground, I was too tired to go on. As I wanted to give up, some of my classmates cheered me up. My classmates' encouragements helped me finish the run. I'll never forget it.

     Hello, I'm Mary. When I was in Grade Two, I didn't prepare well for an English contest. I said sorry to my teacher. He said: “Any opportunity is important. You should never give it up easily.” Later on, I made good use of every opportunity. I'll never forget him.

     Hi, I'm Lucy. The time I traveled to Qingdao with my classmates was the most unforgettable experience. We swam in the sea and caught crabs (螃蟹) on the beach. We played games and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. I will never forget that trip.

     Hi, I'm Jim. I took part in the red song competition with my classmates last year. Every day, we rehearsed(排练) very hard in order to get a good result. Because of our hard work, we achieved a good result in the competition.

    An old carpenter(木匠) was ready to leave his work. He told his boss about his plans to leave the house building company and live a free life with his wife.

    The boss was sorry to see his good worker go. He asked the carpenter if he could build just one more house as personal help. The carpenter agreed. But soon it was easy to see that his heart wasn't in his work.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    When the carpenter completed his work, his boss came and handed the front-door key to him. The boss said, “This is your house, my gift to you.”

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}If the carpenter had known he was building his own house, he would have done it all differently. However, it was too late to regret. Now he had to live in the house he had built not too well.

    Life is like the house.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Think about your “house”. Each day you need to place a brick(砖) or build a wall. Build wisely and make every effort to do the work well. It's the only life you will build for yourself.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}And your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitude and choices you make today.

A. We should build our house with others' help.

B. Think of yourself as the carpenter.

C. Your life today is the result of your attitude and choices in the past.

D. He built the house with poor skills and bad materials.

E. What a surprise! What a shame!

    ［1］China's “four great new inventions” in modern times have made the daily life of the public more and more convenient. They are the high-speed railway(HSR), shopping online, shared bikes and mobile phone payment.

    ［2］Living in Hong Kong, I knew them from the papers, the TV and the Internet. But last month I had the chance to experience all of them.

    ［3］As usual, the golden week stopped the traffic. It was hard to get a railway ticket anywhere in the train stations. But I bought a train ticket to Beijing on the Internet and paid for it through Zhifubao. It was even cheaper than it was bought in the station. Then we got on the high-speed train. I was shocked at its speed and quietness. There was no noise which the train made while running. It was reported that China has the longest high-speed railway in the world, which is regarded as a “name card” for China.

    ［4］China's HSR has also gone abroad. In 2014, China finished building its first foreign high-speed rail in Turkey. In June 2015, China and Russia agreed to build the 770 km of high-speed railway connecting Moscow and Kazan. In October 2015, China helped Indonesia to build a high-speed rail between Jakarta and Bandung.

    ［5］Did I feel bored during the trip on the train? Not at all. I bought many cheap and good things in Taobao and Tmall on the Internet through my mobile phone. It's amazing that there are oceans of products in Taobao and Tmall.        ［6］Soon we arrived in Beijing. We got on a bus near the train station.     getting off the bus, my friend told me that the bus stop is far from his home. I thought we would have to spend much money going to his home on a taxi, but it seemed that he wasn't worried about that. He showed me some bikes on the side of the street. They are called shared bikes. We only need to use our mobile phones to scan(扫描) the QuickResponse code(二维码) on shared bikes, then we could ride the bikes anywhere we wanted to go. It was so cool!
