Look at the photo of Linda's family. The man in the photo is Mr. White. He is Lina's father. The woman is Linda's mother. The girl in a yellow dress(裙子) is Linda. She's 7 years old. The boy next to (紧挨着) Mrs. White is Jack. He is Linda's brother. He is 9 years old. Linda and Jack are students, but they are not in the same school.

    There is a 41-year-old woman from California known as Anna, and she remembers almost every day of her life since(自从)she was eleven. There is an 85-year-old man known as Eddy, and he only knows a little.

Eddy is warm and friendly. He laughs a lot. He looks just like any other grandfather in the world. But 15 years ago  he was sick. Then he only knows the people in the room with him. Every morning, he gets up, has breakfast, and then goes back to bed to listen to the radio. Often he forgets that he has done these things. Sometimes he has breakfast three times in the morning.

    For Anna, the past is always there. She remembers the person giving her a call at 12:34 pm on Sunday, August 3, 1986. She remembers that on March 28, 1992, she had lunch with her father at the Beverly Hills Hotel. She remembers the food and every word of the talk. She remembers the weather.

    Anna said, "I remember the good things and that is nice. But I also remember the bad things. Ten years later, I still get angry with myself for doing something wrong. I would love for just five minutes to be a normal (正常的)person and not have all these things in my head."

    The relationship(关系) between teachers and students is an important part of school life. An Indian movie called Hichki tells the story of a teacher who helps some bad students and makes them better people. It is popular with lots of students now.

In Hichki, the main character is Naina Mathur. She has an illness(疾病) that makes her hiccup(打嗝) often. With her hard work, she gets her dream job as a teacher. But she has to teach a class of rebellious students. They laugh at Mathur in her first class.
    However, Mathur doesn't get angry(生气) with them. She tries her best to help every student. When they cause a small explosion (爆炸) and the school asks them to leave, Mathur still help them a lot. Little by little, Mathur wins the students' hearts. Under her care, the students start to study harder and become better and better.

    From the story, we know that a good teacher doesn't simply pass on knowledge(知识), but shows students how to be a good person. It also shows us that anyone can be successful, even if they have some kind of illness.

We're still in Ireland. We 1 in Dublin four days ago. My sister and I liked it a lot— it was great —we weren't bored at all. Then yesterday, after lunch, Dad hired (租) a car and we travelled to the west of Ireland—it didn't 2 very long, just about two and a half hours, but that was a bit 3 .

However, after two hours, Dad 4 to us and said, "We've got a surprise for you. Tonight, our hotel is a castle (城堡). How exciting!" "A joke, right?" " 5 !" We didn't think he was serious, but he 6 !

At the 7  of the journey, we stopped outside a real castle. A nice lady 8  us and started to show us around. What an amazing place! Can you believe that we 9  fifty stone steps to get to the living room? 

The castle is over 600 years old, but. it had 10 we needed. There was a 11 for our parents and we each had a bedroom. too. But I didn't sleep very well last night-I was so excited to be in a real castle!

This morning we had breakfast and then we climbed up to the 12  of the castle. We were amazed at the beautiful countryside around us. Then it started to rain and there was a 13  rainbow-I love rainbows! 

The place was so great and we didn't want to 14 . This afternoon we want to go to Limerick, so we're packing our bags again! 15 it be as good as a castle? Let's see.

Talking about the life of the old people，many {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（people）first thought might be "Square Dance".However，in Fuzhou，learning English is an 80-year-old grandpa's everyday work.

Grandpa Lin is studying two English courses in a university.At one head of his bed，it's{#blank#}2{#/blank#}（total）full of English books.He even thinks that listening to an MP3 player with English conversations is the best medicine {#blank#}3{#/blank#}his insomnia（失眠症）.Whoever visits him，he always expects to talk with the person in English.His story of {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（learn）English dates back to over ten years ago.

One day in 2009，Grandpa Lin went to Tianjin to see his daughter.On the train，he met a young {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（Britain）couple.With sign language and some easy {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（express），he communicated with the couple for a long time.Finally the two sides also left e—mail addresses to each other.

Soon after he returned home，Grandpa Lin received a special letter from the couple.The letter {#blank#}7{#/blank#}（write） both in English and Chinese.The couple {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（encourage）him to learn English well.From then on，Grandpa Lin continued working hard at English and he made a decision to hold on to his dream.

Grandpa Lin often tries to talk with his friends in English on WeChat. {#blank#}9{#/blank#}he's old，he's positive and seems never to be out.We hope more old people can {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（be）like Grandpa Lin.Never be too old to learn.

19- year- old George is armless. But he doesn't let that stop him from {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(share) his interests with the world. 

Born without arms, the young boy's birth parents left him. Luckily, a couple {#blank#}2{#/blank#} is warm-hearted took him home. They took good care {#blank#}3{#/blank#} him. However, his new parents never allowed him to use his disability as{#blank#}4{#/blank#} excuse to be lazy. When George turned eight, they asked him {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(have) cello(大提琴) lessons. 

The musical instrument is hard even for people {#blank#}6{#/blank#} use both their hands. So it was even {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (difficult) for George. He had to learn to play it with his {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (foot). 

Thanks to his music teacher, the young boy not only learnt the cello, but also realised that he had a talent for music. During middle school, he also learnt to play the piano {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the guitar. 

His music talent {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (catch) the eye of an American rock band and they invited him to play with them at a ten- day- long music festival.
