A motto is a sentence or a phrase which can inspire us especially when we are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (face) with difficulties. Many of us use well-know {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (say) as mottos, such as “Where there is a will, there is a way.” Or “nothing is difficult if you put your heat into it.”, and so on. My motto is “God helps those who help{#blank#}3{#/blank#} Sometimes I am lazy {#blank#}4{#/blank#} don't want to make efforts to work hard, but the moment I think of my motto I will get{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(energy) again and devote myself to what I am doing. I write my motto {#blank#}6{#/blank#} I can see it easily. Every time I fail in my exam and begin to lose heart, the sight of my motto inspires me {#blank#}7{#/blank#} much confidence. My motto also makes me become an {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (dependent) person. That is to say, I won't rely on others {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (easy). My friends, what is your motto? If you still haven't got a motto, please choose {#blank#}10{#/blank#} because a motto can have a great effect on you.

    I'm not sure {#blank#}1{#/blank#} is more frightened, me or the female gorilla(大猩猩）that suddenly appears out of nowhere. I'm walking on a path in the forest in the Central African Republic. Unexpectedly, I'm face-to-face with the gorilla, who begins screaming at {#blank#}2{#/blank#} top of her lungs. That makes her baby scream, and then a 400-pound male appears. He screams the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(loud)of all. The noise shakes the trees as the male beats his chest and charges toward me. I quickly lower myself, ducking my head to avoid {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(look) directly into his eyes so he doesn't feel{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(challenge).

My name is Mireya Mayor. I'm a {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(science)who studies animals such as apes and monkeys. I was searching {#blank#}7{#/blank#} these three western lowland gorillas I'd been observing. No one had seen them for hours, and my colleagues and I were worried.

    When the gorillas and I frightened each other, I was just glad to find {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(they) alive. True to a gorilla's unaggressive nature, the huge animal {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(mean)me no real harm. He was just saying: "I'm king of this forest, and here is your reminder!" Once his message was delivered, he allowed me {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (stay)and watch.
