Craig Keilburger was born on December 17^th, 1982 and {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(spend) his childhood there. In 1995, he read an{#blank#}2{#/blank#} ['a:tikl] about a twelve-year-old  Pakistani boy, Iqbal in the newspaper. It changed his life. The boy started{#blank#}3{#/blank#} in a factory when he was only four. He knew children shouldn't work in factories all day ,{#blank#}4{#/blank#},they should go to school. He decided to fight{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the bosses. As a{#blank#}6{#/blank#} , a bad man killed him. Craig was so{#blank#}7{#/blank#} [ 'æŋgri ] that he decided to help him. He gathered his friends and started a group{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(call)Free the Children.Now the group has 100{#blank#}9{#/blank#} [ 'θauzənd ] members in 35 countries who are helping children. In Kenya, there are poorly-built schools{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (with)any roofs or walls, so Free the Children is building new schools there to help them.

    Rick is a fat man. He gets up late（晚）{#blank#}1{#/blank#}the morning . He has a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}breakfast every morning. He has some meat, three{#blank#}3{#/blank#}four eggs and some pieces of bread(面包). He drinks two{#blank#}4{#/blank#}of milk, some apple juice, a cup of coffee and some fruit. His wife, Vicky,{#blank#}5{#/blank#}a cup of tea, a piece of bread and a banana for breakfast. Rick{#blank#}6{#/blank#}any ball games. He thinks they are too difficult for him, but he likes listening to the music and{#blank#}7{#/blank#}TV and he doesn't{#blank#}8{#/blank#}any housework(家务). Vicky{#blank#}9{#/blank#}sports every day. In fact, she is in a swimming club. So she is very{#blank#}10{#/blank#}.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(learn)how to play the piano is not the only way for children to have a bright future. Children can choose what they like in many ways. Many children are good at sports, maybe they will be great players{#blank#}2{#/blank#}they grow up.

    Here is another example: the schools have paid much attention to story-telling recently. Story-telling can make students become better at talking. They hold many story-telling contests every year. And children {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(show)great interest and taken an active part in them. Some students who were too shy to speak in public have been now very good speakers.

    Now many parents send their children to learn how to play the piano or the violin. But the money and energy they spend cannot {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (make)sure that their children will learn a lot on a short period of time. However, training children to tell a story is quite different.

    Although it {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (cost)little, it's a good and an easy way for children to develop.
