One sunny spring morning, Clark and I were {#blank#}1{#/blank#} in the school library. Then I looked out ofthe {#blank#}2{#/blank#} and saw Mr. White, my English teacher crossing the school yard. “I don't want to meet him,” I said. “Why {#blank#}3{#/blank#}?” asked Clark. “He just doesn't like me.”I explained.

Clark thought for a second and said, “Maybe you've gotit wrong. He probably {#blank#}4{#/blank#} you don't like him, so he's not {#blank#}5{#/blank#} toyou. People like people who like them. If you show interest in him, he {#blank#}6{#/blank#} beinterested in you. Get to talk to him.”

    At last I walked down and greeted Mr. White warmly. Helooked at {#blank#}7{#/blank#},surprised. And then we laughed together and talked happily. I could imagine Clark watching {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the window, smiling.

    Learn to {#blank#}9{#/blank#} people first. You'll find that the light you shine on others will soon be shining back at you even {#blank#}10{#/blank#} brightly.

    Bruce and Bruno looked worried those days. Their father went to a town far away. Before leaving, he said he would write to them as soon {#blank#}1{#/blank#} he found a job there. But two months {#blank#}2{#/blank#}/pɑ:st/, they did not hear from him. Now they had nothing except the old house and they had {#blank#}3{#/blank#} /nəʊ/ money to buy any food. They thought for a long time. Then they decided to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (seller) the house and look for their father. So one day the two brothers said goodbye to their friends and started to go. They arrived {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the station and bought two tickets.

     They were{#blank#}6{#/blank#} /əˈfreid/that they would be hungry in the train, so they went to the market to {#blank#}7{#/blank#}something to eat. They saw bananas for the first time. The seller told them the bananas were delicious, so they {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(buy) five kilos and got on the train with them. After a while Bruce brought out a banana and bit(咬) a little. Just {#blank#}9{#/blank#} that moment the train went into a tunnel(隧道) and it was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} /dɑ:k/in the train. He was afraid and called out, “Have you taken a bite of your bananas, Bruno?”

   “Not yet.”

   “That's good.” Bruce said, crying, “I did and went blind!”

    A car stopped outside the Cherry Hotel and a young man got out. Mrs. Smith said to the young man. “What can I do for you, sir?”

  “Excuse me,” the young man said, “I am l{#blank#}1{#/blank#} for my uncle. Mr. White. He has been away from home s{#blank#}2{#/blank#} two days ago. I think he is staying here.” “Yes, he is.” Mrs. Smith said, “But I'm afraid that he went back to London yesterday.”

  “Oh, dear,” said the young man, looking sad, “I went to his house, but I was told by his children that he was going to stay here u{#blank#}3{#/blank#} the end of the week.”

  “Yes,” said Mrs. Smith. “He wanted to stay here the whole week, but yesterday someone called him saying that one of his friends w{#blank#}4{#/blank#} ill. So he caught the train back to London to see the friend a{#blank#}5{#/blank#} once.”

“He should let me k{#blank#}6{#/blank#}.” the young man said. “I wrote him a l{#blank#}7{#/blank#}, saying that I was coming. Well, he isn't here. I won't wait any longer.”

    The young man thanked Mrs. Smith and went out. Mrs. Smith watched h{#blank#}8{#/blank#} leave. When his car couldn't be seen, she called out,“You can come out now. Mr. White. He's gone.”

Mr. White came out of the bedroom.

  “Many thanks, Mrs. Smith.” he said laughing. “You did very w{#blank#}9{#/blank#}. The young man is my stepbow(侄子). When he n{#blank#}10{#/blank#} money, he will look for me everywhere . Next time he won't tell me by writing me a letter. ”

A: What happened to you yesterday, Linda?

B: I went {#blank#}1{#/blank#} in the mall yesterday. After I had bought something, I went to a part of the mall to have a drink.

A: Then, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}  up?

B: Before I got to my seat, a tall man {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a bag had sat down at the same table.

A: A man ?

B: Yes. I'm not {#blank#}4{#/blank#} enough. Before I went to bring my drink, I put my handbag on the chair.

A: I can imagine what {#blank#}5{#/blank#} to you next. You must {#blank#}6{#/blank#} something.

B: And I believe in everyone. Before I noticed the man, he had left with his bag. When I was ready to pay {#blank#}7{#/blank#} my drink, I found my purse(钱包) was 1ost. The man had {#blank#}8{#/blank#} away my purse.

A: What a pity!

B: {#blank#}9{#/blank#} , a waiter in a nearby restaurant found my purse in a dustbin(垃圾箱). He telephoned me yesterday evening.

A: It must be all out.

B: No, everything was in {#blank#}10{#/blank#} money.

    A man was walking through a large city. On a street corner，he saw a boy {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(sell) a number of small birds in a cage(笼子)．

    He looked at the birds flying about in the cage and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（try）to get out. He stood for some time looking at the birds .At last he said to{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(冠词)boy，“How much do you ask for your birds？” “Fifty cents a bird，sir，” said the boy. “I {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(not) mean how much a bird，” said the man，“{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (连词)how much for all of them? I expect to buy{#blank#}6{#/blank#}（it） all.”

    The boy began to count，and found they came to five dollars. “There is your money，” said the man. The boy took it {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(happy).Then the man opened the cage door as quickly as he could，and let all the birds {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(fly)away.

    The boy，in great surprise，cried，“What did you do that{#blank#}9{#/blank#}（介词），sir？You have lost all your birds.”

    “I will tell you why I did it，” said the man.“ I has been shut up for three years in a prison(监狱), and I{#blank#}10{#/blank#}decide) never to see anything in prison which I can make free.”
