On the first evening, the three of us were tired after walking for about eight hours. We soon fell asleep. In the morning, I was surprised to find the bag of food had been open.

    “Bears,” said Joe, “we should hang the food in a tree tonight.”

    Later that day we stopped in a beautiful field by a river. We put up the tent and fell asleep. During the night the bears came again. This time they took the food from the tree.

    “Bears can climb trees. They can smell food from a long way away,” said Ben.

    “We must keep the camp clean. Bears must think our rubbish is food,” I said. “And we should make lots of noise, too. If they know where we are, they may not come any closer,” said Joe.

    “But if you see a bear,” said Ben, “you mustn't make any sudden moves or make a sound, and you mustn't run either. No one can run faster in the forest than a bear. And remember we don't have a gun to keep us safe.” That night, we went to sleep ... or we tried to.

    The next day, while the others were resting, I went for a walk in the forest. Suddenly, I saw a baby bear playing with some sticks and stones. He looked so soft and friendly, and I thought, “If I reach out, I can just touch him.”

    There was a loud noise behind me.

    I didn't dare to move, not even turn my head. There was another loud noise. The baby bear looked up, and ran towards me. I turned pale and he ran past me into the woods.

    I couldn't turn round until a few minutes later. Then I saw the baby bear and his huge mother walking away.

    I ran back to my friends. I have never run so fast.

    For the next 10 days, every time there was sudden noise, my blood went cold.

    A young woman was walking through a supermarket to pick up a few things when she noticed an old man following her around．Thinking nothing of it，she ignored him and went on shopping．After she got what she wanted，she went to checkout line，but the old man got in front of her．

    "Pardon me!" he said，"I'm sorry if my staring（盯）at you has made you feel uncomfortable（不舒服的)，it's just because you look like my granddaughter，who just died recently．And I miss her very much．"

    "I'm very sorry，"said the young woman．"Is there anything I can do for you?"

    "Yes．" the old man said．"As I'm leaving，can you say 'Good-bye，grandpa' to me? It would make me feel so much better．"

    "Sure,"answered the young woman．

    As the old man was leaving，she called out．"Bye-bye，grandpa!"

    When she stepped(迈步) up to the checkout counter（收银台），she saw that her total was $178.50．

    "How can that be?" she asked．"I only bought a few things!"

    "Your grandpa said you would pay for him，" said the clerk.

    Bill is a smart boy. He can do all the math problems(问题) in his math book.

    One day, on his way to school, he sees a sign of a fruit store. It says: "Apples: Six for five  cents(美分)". Bill knows what to do, so he goes into the store.

    "How much are the apples？" Bill asks the man.

    "Six for five cents."

    "But I don't want six apples."

    "How many apples do you want？"

    "Well, it's not a question of how many apples I want. It's a math problem. If six apples are worth(值) five cents, then five apples are worth four cents, four apples are worth three cents, three apples are worth two cents, two apples are worth one cent and then one apple is worth ZERO! I only want one apple."

    Bill chooses(选择) a good apple and starts to eat it. The man is so surprised(惊讶的) that he can't say a word!

How I've Changed!

My life has changed a lot in the last few years.

……

For some teenagers, being an adult is the 1 thing in the world. Adults don't need to do homework or take exams. They do what they like and make money. How 2 ! But is it true? 

Last month, Grade Seven students at Sunshine School had a taste of the adult world. The teachers asked them 3 a piece of special homework called "Working with your parents for one day". 

Wujing's mother works as 4 ticket collector in a park. At 6 am, the 14-year-old girl set out for work with her mother. It was dark and cold. Before the park opened, they did some cleaning and prepared for the 5 coming. When the visitors came, they greeted with a smile. After standing for the whole day, Wu felt worn out. 

"She is busier and more tired than what I thought. I should help her more." said Wu. 

Li Shiyi, 14, spent the whole day helping in a car. 6 father is a taxi driver. She had to pick calls and 7 change back. Li thought it would be easy to work in a car. 8 soon she found that they didn't even have time 9 lunch. 

"Now I know how 10 it is to make money," Li said. "We should care for our parents more and never waste money."
