Buying books on the Internet is a great way {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (save) time and money. Online bookstores offer not only new books but also used books. What's more, they are far better {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (compare) to traditional bookstores as they offer much broader kinds of books. Another advantage of shopping online is that you can also read the book reviews as well as readers' reviews to get an idea {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the book is worth buying. Online bookstores often offer great discounts to{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (attraction) book lovers with a tight budget.

    For book lovers, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} is important to get books in time, in which case they need to find a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (rely) online bookstore that is able to provide fast deliveries.

    Here are some {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (advise) for reference when you are selecting an online bookstore. Some online bookstores are popular {#blank#}8{#/blank#} fiction books; some are for non-fiction books or novels, etc. Understanding their specialization will help you to get the right kinds of books in time. Never choose stores that offer {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (believe) cheap prices, as books that {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (sell) at such low prices could be in very bad condition.

    Over the past few days, a young adult, maybe in his early twenties, has been sleeping on the sidewalk in front of a postbox. As {#blank#}1{#/blank#} matter of fact, every time I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (drive) by, I would see him there; one time he seemed {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(lose) in thought. I've offered him a couple of drinks from Starbucks one time and Jamba Juice the other. He {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (polite) accepted both but said very little. For the past two mornings, I {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(make) him breakfast at my home and then dropping it off to him {#blank#}6{#/blank#} he slept. This morning, besides food, I added a You Matter card and left him a note just {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (let) him know that someone cares about him. I hope to talk with him some day and hear his story.

    I told my own son about giving the man breakfast. I said, “I hope someone would be kind to you if you were in his position.“ My son responded {#blank#}8{#/blank#} “Thank you.” For me, life is about trying to see others as family, or even as {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (I). Even if we are not very {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (wealth), we can help others with our efforts.

    A 90-year-old has been awarded "Woman Of The Year" for {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) Britain's oldest full-time employee-still working 40 hours a week. Now Irene Astbury works from 9am to 5pm daily at the pet shop in Macclesfield, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} she opened with her late husband Les. Her years of hard work have {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (final) been acknowledged after a customer nominated (提名) her to be Cheshire's "Woman Of The Year".

    Picking up her "Lifetime Achievement" award, proud Irene {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (declare) she had no plans {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (retire) from her 36-year-old business. Irene said, "I don't see any reason to give up work. I love coming here and seeing my family and all the friends I {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (make) over the years. I work not because I have to, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} because I want to."

    Granddaughter Gayle Parks, 31-who works alongside her in the family business-said it remained unknown as to who nominated Irene for the award. She said, "We don't have any idea who put grandma forward. When we got a call {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (say) she was short-listed, we thought it was {#blank#}9{#/blank#} joke. But then we got an official letter and we were blown away. We are so proud of her. It's {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (wonder)."

    It was the spring of 1943 during World War Ⅱ. Standing among hundreds of new {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(soldier)at Camp Grant, Sam, just 18 years old, waited as a truck slowly drove by. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} full field pack was randomly thrown to each soldier.

    Sam received{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (he). After he opened the pack and looked at the things in it, he was greatly{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(astonish). He found his last name, Litrenti, was marked on each thing in his pack. "How strange!" Sam thought. He didn't think the one {#blank#}5{#/blank#} threw the field pack to him knew who he was.

    So why was Sam's last name marked on the things? You may not believe it, but it was the field pack that his father {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(use)during World War I.

    Sam {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(certain) didn't know that when he received it. It wasn't until after the war {#blank#}8{#/blank#} he found out why.

    After the war, he talked {#blank#}9{#/blank#}that with his father. After {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (talk)for a while, Sam's father became sure that the pack once belonged to him.

    Both the father and the son couldn't believe that! What a coincidence!
