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.

    In 1955, I got a train ticket to visit my relatives in Cleveland. On my return trip, I met {#blank#}1{#/blank#} handsome soldier. He asked if he could look at the train timetable {#blank#}2{#/blank#} was held in my hand and then if he could sit next to me so that we could chat. I agreed and invited him to share the lunch my aunt {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (pack) for me before leaving. We talked all the way. Finally, we exchanged {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (address) and he said he would contact me.

    After a week, I still didn't receive a letter {#blank#}5{#/blank#} him and began to think he'd forgotten about me. On Saturday, the phone rang and a familiar voice asked if I would like to go out together. We ended up in {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (see) On the Waterfront at the Kallet Theatre. We had a more dates during his Army leave, and then he {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (send) to go overseas. For the next two years, we kept in touch with each other by letter.

    In 1957, we got married. We've been together for more than 60 years, raising three daughters who now have daughters of{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (they) own. Before taking my trip to Cleveland years ago, I was warned never{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (speak) to strangers on a train. I'm {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (certain) glad I didn't listen.

With the development of our society, the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (connect) between people becomes inevitable (不可避免的). People need to communicate with others as long as they are in the world. As a result {#blank#}2{#/blank#} interpersonal relationship becomes more and more important.

A good interpersonal relationship promotes (促进) people's success. Throughout human history, we can know {#blank#}3{#/blank#} no one can do everything well and become {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (success) alone. Most great men have a good relationship with other people. For many people, the interpersonal relationship and their abilities are equally important to their success. By {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (keep) a good relationship with others, people can easily get help from others {#blank#}6{#/blank#} facing difficulties. In other words, excellent interpersonal communication skills can help people remove obstacles(障碍) on the way {#blank#}7{#/blank#} success. Besides, a good interpersonal relationship can help people live a happy life. {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(create) a harmonious environment, people should keep a good relationship with the people around them. These friendly people will form a happy atmosphere, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} will make people work efficiently(高效的) and put them in a good mood in daily life. It is certain that people will receive {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (happy) in the end.

    Dogs are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} very popular pet. Most of them just live with their families. But some dogs have very special jobs {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (do). A group of dogs {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (know) as "Therapy Dogs". These dogs are family pets with special training, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} allows them to go into public buildings and comfort people {#blank#}5{#/blank#} need. The dogs are trained to be calm and quiet. Loud noises and unfamiliar places don't frighten them. They enjoy spending time with people.

    Some therapy dogs go into places, such as hospitals and nursing homes. When the dogs visit the patients, the patients are cheered up. They have fun {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (pet) the dogs and look forward to their visits. The dogs help to brighten their day. Therapy dogs can improve people's health as well. Studies show that when people pet animals, their blood {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (press) and heart rates go down. They are calmer and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (they) mood improves.

    Other therapy dogs work in schools and libraries. They serve as warm and caring {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (friend) to children, but they also do {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (much). In one town in California, therapy dogs have become children's reading buddies. The dogs make a great audience. The children look forward to reading to the dogs, and the dogs love the attention.

    Smell the flowers before you go to sleep and you may just end up with rosy dreams. Have a whiff of rotten(腐烂的)eggs during the night and your dreams may be {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(pleasant). So says researcher Dr. Boris Stuck, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}invited sleeping volunteers to a rose vs. rotten egg test in the University Hospital Mannheim in Germany. The subjects didn't dream about roses {#blank#}3{#/blank#}eggs, but rather he found that what they smelt affected the emotions of {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(they) dreams.

    And if you think {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(smell) have a say in dreams, wait for what TV tells us. A UK study reveals that people exposed {#blank#}6{#/blank#}black-and-white film and TV in their youth are to have monochromic(单色的)dreams throughout their life more {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(probable). Eva Murzyn from the University of Dundee tested two age groups— one half {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(age) over 55 and {#blank#}9{#/blank#}other half under 25.

    The result? Under 5% of the dreams of the under-25s were in black and white. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(watch)color TV in childhood seems to be the reason why.
