The other day， I was getting into my car when I saw an old man walking up the hill. He looked tired， so I waited to see 1he was OK. He was fine， so I 2 him where he came from. He said that he just 3a train. He was almost blind， but I said he was4.

    We spent the next thirty minutes 5 about his life. He told me he invited 6 the army during the Second World War. And I even found 7 had a connection through a family member! We laughed so much that we almost cried.

    It cost me nothing other than thirty minutes of my 8. I learnt so much， and Albert enjoyed the talking and left smiling.

    I also had a(n) opportunity 9 to thank this great man for all he did to keep the country 10 during the war.

    Thanks， amazing Albert. You are an inspiration!

    I'll tell you1about my English teacher, Mrs. Wang. She is a middle-aged woman. She is not tall and not short , and she is also not2and not thin . She3long black hair. She likes4a red dress. She is very beautiful. She5very good English . She has three classes a week , but they aren't6Tuesday or Friday. All the students in her class love her very much.

    Mrs. Wang lives not7the school. She walks to school with her son and her daughter early every morning. Her two children are8.They look the same. They are in Grade Two, but they are not in9class . They often wear the same clothes. They look very10.

    I know the saddest moment in my life. Three years ago I was in Grade 6. I arrived at my school that morning. As soon as I walked into the classroom, I felt sad and uncomfortable. I knew exactly why the mood felt this way. The people around me were 1 their feelings. Today was the day when our teacher would leave and move to another school. Mr. Smith was finally saying goodbye to our school after five years' 2 here.

    Mr. Smith was a lovely man. He would tell a lot of jokes during the class 3. So you would remember them. He was very easy to talk with. He was cool, relaxed, and was always 4. When you would see him. It was 5 not to like him.

    That day began with our class song as usual. I felt sad and uneasy. I couldn't even imagine how things were going to be 6 him. All the good times I've had with him, the jokes he told that made me laugh, the countless hours of watching him play the guitar and the warm 7 he kept on his face… These thoughts went through my mind, and I became inspired. Why did Mr. Smith have to go? This is the 8 day of my life! I was lost in my thought.

    "Hey, are you all right?" My friend Peter 9.

    "Yeah, I'm all right. I'm just kind of sad," I 10.

    "Yeah, me too. I wish he was our teacher forever. Mr. Smith is the best, "he said.

    Last week, I went to Beijing for a holiday with my friends. We did a lot of 1 things over there. 2 the first day, we went to a beautiful beach. The weather was cloudy but hot. We had great fun 3 in the water. In the afternoon, we went shopping. There were too many people in the shops, 4 I didn't really enjoy it. On the next day, we went to a 5. There were some old things on show in it. It was kind of boring. I saw a little boy 6 in the corner. He was lost and I helped him 7 his father. That made him feel very 8. I had 9 money for a taxi, so I walked back to the hotel. I was really tired after two 10 walk, but happy. On the last day, the weather was cold, and we 11 to play tennis. We played all 12. It was really fun. After that, we had lunch in a 13. We 14 much nice food from different places. In the afternoon, we did some sightseeing around the city. Then we 15 a train back to Quzhou at 4: 30 p. m. It was a tiring holiday, but we really enjoyed ourselves very much.

    One day, the students of Class 6 were reading in the classroom. Mrs. Brown came in and told the whole class that they would have to change a 1 in March. The naughtiest(调皮的) class in the grade could not 2 it. The pupils all disagreed with the decision, so they shouted when Mrs.

    Brown said it was because a new pupil would be3 the class. The class was in disorder. (杂乱地) "Why must we move to another classroom just because someone new is coming?". One of them asked 4 Mrs. Brown waited patiently before the class without saying anything. The students saw it and they became quiet. Mrs. Brown told them to be 5 to their new classmate and then she left.

    The following week, the class understood 6. The head teacher himself brought the new student to their class.7, Mr. White pushed the new student to the class because the student was disabled. Mr. White 8 the new student as Jeff and asked them to be friendly to him. He said that Jeff now was a 9 of the class and they should work together. He added," A house divided (分开) against itself cannot stand."10 could completely understand what Mr. White meant at first.

    Over time, they began to understand what their head teacher meant. Jeff was a 11 student and often lent a helping hand to students who did not understand 12 work. They felt very thankful to him. They took turns (轮流) to push him 13 they knew well that when someone did something for you, you 14 do something back in return (作为回报) .Their results 15 and their behavior (行为) became better. It was a special year Class 6 would never forget.

    Once upon a time, in the middle of a pool, there lived a frog. One day, a princess（公主）rowed1the pool in a boat. As she moved past, the frog raised his head and called to her.

    "Kiss me, and I will2a handsome prince.”

    "Not likely," replied the princess, "I rule my own kingdom; I3my own armies, I make my own laws. I need 4 prince, handsome or otherwise. What else do you have to offer?"

    "Kiss me, and I will give you great 5.”

    "I think not,” answered the princess, "I6all the money in my country. Your great riches won't bring me any7, just make my money less valuable. Is that the best you have to 8 !”

    "Kiss me, and 1 will promise you attractive9”

    Ha-ha," sneered (讥讽)the princess ,"How very 10 ! I may be not good-looking11 beauty does not last."

    "What do you want then?" the frog stuck to his 12.

    The princess thought hard, and moved 13 .

    "I want to be happy " she said quietly and kissed the frog.

    "You14love, riches, beauty, and yet you want happiness from kissing a frog! This isn't a fairy tale you know." laughed the frog, diving into the clear, blue pool.

    Actually, frogs always 15 you in the end. It's hard to escape from them.
