Hello! My name is Mary. Frank is my{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. He is my uncle's son. He is an{#blank#}2{#/blank#}boy. He is 14 years old now. He is a student{#blank#}3{#/blank#}a middle school in Beijing. We are deskmates (同桌) at school. Frank's telephone{#blank#}4{#/blank#}is 256-5689. We are good{#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

    Frank's room is very tidy because he likes cleaning(清洁)it. Frank's father is a{#blank#}6{#/blank#}in our school. He teaches (教){#blank#}7{#/blank#}Chinese. And Frank's mother is also a Chinese teacher,{#blank#}8{#/blank#} she isn't in our school. Frank has a brother. His name is Mike. They are both students. My English is not good, and Frank{#blank#}9{#/blank#}helps me with it. I{#blank#}10{#/blank#}him a lot for his help. And I hope I can help him Chinese.

    Once there was a black and white cat. One day he was{#blank#}1{#/blank#} under a tree in the forest.

    When he walked up, he felt very {#blank#}2{#/blank#} . He wanted to have something to eat.

    He{#blank#}3{#/blank#}around. He looked up at the blue{#blank#}4{#/blank#} and looked down at the green plant. Something was moving in the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} . It was a sparrow(麻雀).

    He talked to the sparrow and asked it to be {#blank#}6{#/blank#} with him. When it came near, he caught the sparrow. He was going to eat it. The sparrow said, “No gentleman eats his  {#blank#}7{#/blank#}  till he has washed his face.”

    The cat was surprised（惊讶的）to {#blank#}8{#/blank#} that. He began to wash his face with his paw（爪子）, and the sparrow {#blank#}9{#/blank#} away.

    The cat was sorry to{#blank#}10{#/blank#} dinner and said, “As long as I live, I will eat first and wash my face later.”

    Lily was a single mother who lived with her little son. She lost her job two years ago and they lived {#blank#}1{#/blank#} very hard life. Her heart was {#blank#}2{#/blank#} every time her son asked, "Can I have some more bread, Mommy?"

    One day, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} her son asked the same question again, she bought some food with her only 5 dollars and cooked a big meal for him at home. Lily was a shy mother, but she was strong-minded. She used to love writing, so she decided {#blank#}4{#/blank#} some articles for magazines to make money. Things went {#blank#}5{#/blank#} than before. Thanks to some free {#blank#}6{#/blank#} provided by the local food bank, her son had more to eat. Once he told Lily that the dishes she made {#blank#}7{#/blank#} very delicious. Suddenly, an idea came to Lily's mind," {#blank#}8{#/blank#} " not share my recipes(食谱)on the Internet?" She did so. Many people liked her recipes and she became popular.

    Soon after that, Lily wrote a book on {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (cook) and got much money from it. Finally, she had a good sleep for the {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (one) night during the two years. Now Lily lives happily, but she'll never forget the days when she worked hard for a good life.
