One day I got into a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were1on the right side when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of 2 . My taxi driver stopped at once and missed the other 3 by just inches ( 英寸)！

  The driver of the other car turned his head quickly4 and started shouting at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really5. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost broke your car and sent us to the 6!" This is when my taxi driver 7me what I now call “The Law of the Rubbish Truck”.

He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around of rubbish, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their rubbish grows, they need a place to empty it and 8they'll empty it onto you. Don't9it personally, just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take the rubbish and 10it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.

    I was living in a house with a long history in Halifax, Nova Scotia five years ago. One day one of my friends from the West Coast came out to visit me. He was1for 3 weeks so he brought a lot of bags and suitcases, and other things like a2. I told him he could sleep on the bed in the front living room.

      One morning after a late night of drinking, my friend ran into my room shouting" Fire, Fire". Without3, I jumped out of bed. The floor was4against my feet as I ran into the hallway, right behind my friend. I couldn't see the fire anywhere, 5as we ran towards the front door, I could hear the6making a loud noise all around me. It was inside the7. We ran out into the front yard and looked8at the house, seeing black smoke coming out of the9house.

      We were standing there watching the house when I looked down and10all of my friend's bags and suitcases11lined up on the front grassland, including his basketball. 12he noticed the house was on fire, he took all of them out to the grassland before coming back to13me about it. That fire had started in the basement（地下室）, and it spread up into the walls and was burning the14we were standing on. The floor and much of the house fell down not long after we came out. The firemen said we were very15.

Of course，we are not friends anymore.

    My name is Paul. I was a1boy. One morning, I woke up and realized I was not2. I decided to do something to put my name in the Guinness Book of World Records.

    3 my dream, I thought of something I could do. First, I tied my arm around my back and wanted to be "the person who4the farthest with one arm". But as soon as I got in the water, I sank(下沉).

    Then, I stuffed 165in my mouth and tried to be "the person who put the most cookies in his mouth". However, when cookie went in, I got sick.

    Finally,6a Friday evening, I ran to the bathroom and filled up the tub(浴盆) with water.

    I decided to be "the person who took the world's longest bath". It was a perfect idea7all that I had to do was to sit there. The first three hours was great. I drank soda and ate potato chips,8in the water so long made me look like I was 80. But I was determined.

    An hour later, my brother shouted outside the bathroom that the record for the longest bath in the world was9than a month! Feeling10, I got out.

    Maybe I will never be in the Guinness Book of World Records. But that's OK. I am still special.
