My father was born in a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, and then 1 in the fields till sunset. And then he did his homework until midnight. Life was hard, because they had no 2!

    At the age of 14, my father heard of the United States of America. It was the 3 of gold, the land where poor people can become rich.

   “Why don't I go to America?” he thought to himself, full of 4.

    So, my father came to America. “I had thought it was easy to 5 money in America.” he told me. “But when I arrived there, I realized it's not 6. They didn't like to hire(雇佣) me because I spoke little English. Later, I worked in a small restaurant, cleaning up tables, 7 dishes and sweeping the floor. Life was hard for the first few years. I worked from 10 a. m. to 11 p. m. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it's impossible. I couldn't 8 the schooling(学费).”

    My father 9 working hard，and reached his goal.

  “Alan,” he often told me. “If you want something, you have to work for it and never give up. Things do not come  10 in life.” That's what I learned from my father.

    A Seeing Eye dog is very special. One1thing about having a Seeing Eye dog is that you can go anywhere in the city safely.

    I live in Barcelona, Spain. It's a big2, and there are many cars, but my dog Terra goes everywhere3me and doesn't let me get hit by a car. Terra also guides me to walk safely in the subway.

    I have a baby boy, so another good thing is that my dog watches out for4 , too. I can put the baby in his stroller, and Terra makes sure we are5okay. I have had Terra for ten years, and I'm happy to have it.

    I keep a two-dollar bill in my wallet that was given by my mother when I was six years old. Mother gave it to me so that1would follow me everywhere. She looked at me and said, "I want you to2this two-dollar bill for extra good luck."

    "Thanks, Mom," I replied. "I will keep it3me always."

    My mother passed away when I was 17 years old and I remembered taking out my two-dollar bill, 4it in my hand for the longest time and I knew she would be5me the rest of life.

    On my first6, I was thirty years old. As I sat in the sitting room, I noticed there were five women ahead of me. All of them were7and well dressed, which made me more nervous.

    "What makes you feel you are8for this job?" Mrs. Martin, the office manager asked me.

    "I really need this job and there is9I can't do. I know I am not as suitable as your other applicants（申请人）for the job, but please give me a10.I learn quickly and can be a very capable11of your team."

    That evening I received a call from Mrs. Martin. "Gina," she said, "you were not the most suitable applicant, 12you have so much confidence in yourself that we decided to give you a chance to prove yourself." "Thank you, Mrs. Martin. You will not regret this 13, "I said14and hung up the phone.

    I got my wallet and took out my two-dollar bill." Thanks, Mom. I am sure to15it," I said out loud so that she could hear me.

    Wishing to encourage her young son's progress on the piano, a mother took her boy to a pianist's concert on a summer holiday evening. After they found their 1, the mother saw two friends in the hall and walked to 2 them.

    It was the boy's first time to come to the hall. He thought it was a good 3 for him to explore the wonders of the concert hall. He 4 and walked around.  He walked 5 a door marked "NO ADMITTANCE"(禁止入内).    When the hall lights dimmed (变暗) , the 6 would begin.  The mother returned to her seat and discovered that her son was 7. The mother was 8 worried at that at the moment that tears (眼泪)  were in her eyes.

    The concert began, and the lights focused on (聚焦于) the wonderful piano on stage. The mother was 9  to see her little boy sitting at the keyboard, playing the song Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star 10 he did at home.

    At that moment, the great pianist came, quickly moved to the piano and 11 in the boy's ear, "Don't stop. Keep playing. " He leaned over (俯身) and began filling in a bass part (低音) with his left 12, then added a running obbligato (伴奏) with his right hand. They played the piano together 13.The old pianist and the young novice (初学者) changed a frightening situation into a wonderful creative experience. The audience (观众) stood up and  14 them.

    An artist's achievements and charm depend on not only his perfect skills 15 his good qualities.

    One day, in a heavily crowded place, a young man began shouting, "People, look at me. I have the most beautiful heart in the world." All the people praised(称赞) him when they saw his beautiful heart in a perfect shape. However, there came an old man, "No, I don't think so. Young man, I have got the most beautiful heart in the world!"

    The young man asked him, "Show me your heart, then!"

    The old man showed his heart to him. The heart had scars(伤痕) all over.

    The young man started laughing, and said, "My dear old man, are you mad? How can you say your heart is beautiful?"

    "Dear boy. Did you see the scars? Each scar represents(代表) the love I shared with a person. I share a piece of my heart with others when I share love, and in return I get a piece of heart. Since the pieces of heart I shared were neither equal(相等的) nor in the same shape or size, my heart is not in shape. "

    The young man stood quietly and did not speak a word. Tears rolled down his face.

As a robot, I could do plenty of jobs. I could explore different planets, collect data about the stars or even help astronauts {#blank#}6{#/blank#} their tasks. There are so many possibilities. There are many planets I would like to go to, but one of my favorite {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (planet) is Mars. It would be very exciting to explore the red planet and see all the different kinds of rocks on {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (I) own. There might be signs of life. 

Robots will never take over the world. We are here to help and serve the humans, not take the place of them. If you're interested in learning more about robots, I suggest you should {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (read) a book on the subjects. There are many chances {#blank#}10{#/blank#}are available to make life easier for everyone. I'm sure that will give you confidence.
