This is a picture{#blank#}1{#/blank#}  a park. There are many {#blank#}2{#/blank#} in the park. There aren't any flowers, but there are some trees. In the trees some{#blank#}3{#/blank#}  are singing happily.
    Near the trees there are four men. Now they are playing {#blank#}4{#/blank#} . The man with glasses is watching them.
    Look! A young man is {#blank#}5{#/blank#} around the lake. Some young women are sitting at a{#blank#}6{#/blank#} . They are drinking tea and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} . Three girls are taking {#blank#}8{#/blank#} near the lake.
    There are three {#blank#}9{#/blank#} on the lake. Some children are in them. Are there any young men in the lake? Let me see. Oh, yes, there are. They are {#blank#}10{#/blank#}  in the lake.

    There was a small village near a mountain. People there loved their village very much and they grew many {#blank#}1{#/blank#} on the mountain. Water in the rivers was very clear and the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} was clean. People lived a poor life, but they were very {#blank#}3{#/blank#} . After a few years, some people in the village started to cut down trees to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} for money. There were some people from cities {#blank#}5{#/blank#} to visit the village. People began to kill some wild animals as {#blank#}6{#/blank#} to treat (招待) the visitors. Of course, they made lots of money. But {#blank#}7{#/blank#} knew what the village would be like in the future. As time went on, there were fewer plants and animals and the water became {#blank#}8{#/blank#}. The visitors became fewer and fewer. Several years later, people there knew they must stop destroying (破坏) {#blank#}9{#/blank#} . They would like to live a happy life as before, so they began to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} new plants. They hoped the village would become as beautiful as before.

    When you get up in the morning, do you find it hard to {#blank#}1{#/blank#} what clothes to wear?

    If so, you probably need help to make the bigger choices in your life, like what to do when you're {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

    Brave New Girls, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} by an American author Jeanette Gadeberg, will help you make such choices. To make them, it says, you must be a brave new girl. A brave new girl is the one who's confident, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} and happy. A brave new girl can realize her dream.

    To be brave, you need to make decisions by {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. Other people may tell you what to do, but you should not listen to them. You should only do what you want.

    If you always wear clothes {#blank#}6{#/blank#} your favorite TV star, for example, you should stop {#blank#}7{#/blank#} so. Instead, you should become your own star and wear the clothes you like.

    The book also says that girls must start becoming more confident. If you're confident, you'll {#blank#}8{#/blank#} in life. A good way to become confident is to realize that you are as {#blank#}9{#/blank#} as boys. You just look at their grades!

    Today's brave new girls will become tomorrow's brave new women. Only in this way can you achieve your dreams and become who you want to {#blank#}10{#/blank#}.

    A wife came to see her husband and gave him a suggestion, "I read in an article on{#blank#}1{#/blank#}to make our marriage(婚姻)stronger. I want each of us{#blank#}2{#/blank#}a list of things that make each other annoyed. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives{#blank#}3{#/blank#}than ever together. "

    The husband agreed. So each of them went into a different room in the house and{#blank#}4{#/blank#}the things that really made the other angry. They thought and thought the questions for the rest of the day and wrote down what they{#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

    The next morning, at breakfast, the wife started. She took out her list. There were many points on it, enough to fill three{#blank#}6{#/blank#} . In fact, as she started reading the list, she noticed that tears(泪水)were starting to appear in her husband's eyes.

    The wife continued to read the list until she finished{#blank#}7{#/blank#}all the points on the paper to her husband. Then she placed her list on the table and put her hands over the top of it.

    It's time for her husband to read his list. But quietly the husband said, "I don't have anything on my list. I think you are perfect. I don't want you to change{#blank#}8{#/blank#}about you. "

    The woman was moved{#blank#}9{#/blank#}her husband's words and began to cry.

    In life, whenever we are disappointed, angry or sad, we shouldn't lose heart because we always have wonderful time that it is full of beauty, light and happiness. Why do we waste time{#blank#}10{#/blank#}the bad, disappointing things? Why not enjoy the wonderful things around us?
