A boy found an eagle's(鹰) egg and he put it in the nest(巢) of a chicken. Soon the egg broke open and the eagle {#blank#}1{#/blank#} out. He thought he was a chicken. He grew up doing what chickens do— looking for {#blank#}2{#/blank#} in the dirt and flying short distances(距离) with a noisy waving of wings. It was a hard life. Little by little the eagle grew {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. One day he and his chicken friends {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a beautiful bird flying in the air, high {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the mountains.

    "Oh, I wish I could fly like that!" said the eagle. The chicken {#blank#}6{#/blank#} "Don't give it another thought. That's the great eagle, the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} of all birds—you can never be like him!" And the eagle didn't give it {#blank#}8{#/blank#} thought. He went on cackling(咯咯) and complaining about {#blank#}9{#/blank#}. Finally, he died thinking he was a chicken.

    My friends, you are born an eagle, {#blank#}10{#/blank#}. The God expects you to be an eagle, so don't listen to the chickens.

    I have a good {#blank#}1{#/blank#} at school. She is a girl. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} name is Lucy. We are in the same grade. But we are not in the same class. Lucy's brother is a student, {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} name is Tom. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} is a good boy. He is fifteen.

    A hobby can be something a person likes {#blank#}1{#/blank#} in his free time. People can keep pets, build model ships and so on. In a word, hobbies give people enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation.

    Then, what is my hobby? Well, what I like most is singing. I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} to sing songs when I was very young. My uncle was {#blank#}3{#/blank#} music in a college then, so he could sing lots of songs, and he taught me several songs. I {#blank#}4{#/blank#} great interests in music then, because they were pleasing to sing and often make me happy.

    When I was at primary school, my music teacher {#blank#}5{#/blank#} that I had a good voice, so she asked my father to send me to the Children's Palace (少年宫) {#blank#}6{#/blank#} music at weekends. From then on, I began my music training. I practised hard and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} prizes one after another in different kinds of competitions. In fact, I dreamed of becoming a famous singer in the future.

    As time went by, I came to know that my dream wouldn't {#blank#}8{#/blank#} true, because there were strict conditions(条件). But now I still take singing as my hobby, because it has {#blank#}9{#/blank#} me very good feelings and an excellent chance {#blank#}10{#/blank#} . Besides, it is a good way to learn things that I can't easily find in life.
