    One day in Africa, a mouse was hurrying home. He was going so {#blank#}1{#/blank#} that he ran right into a sleeping lion. The lion woke up and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (catch) the mouse. "If you let me go, I'll do something for you in return(回报)," the mouse cried. "How could a small animal like you help {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a big and strong animal as me?" But the lion still let him go. "Thank you! I won't forget you," said the mouse.

    A few days later, some people were looking for wild animals. They {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (hang) a big net from three trees and tied a piece of meat to it.

    One evening, the lion made no kill and decided to return home. Just then, he smelled something delicious. When the lion found the {#blank#}5{#/blank#} , he pulled it down and the net fell down over him. The lion tried to get away but it was no use. After a while, he stopped trying. Before long, the lion {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (hear) a voice. It was from the mouse he had set free a few days ago. "I've come to help you," said the mouse. "How can you help me? I'm caught in the net and {#blank#}7{#/blank#} can help me now," the lion said sadly. But the mouse got to work, biting the net with his sharp {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(tooth). At last, he made a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} in the net big enough for the lion to escape.

    So the little mouse did what he had {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (promise) to do--help the lion. One of the nature's strongest animals had been saved by one of the smallest and weakest.

    Justin is a 16-year-old boy. He is thinking about how {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (spend) his money during winter vacation. He {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(save) up about 300 dollars already. He plans to buy {#blank#}3{#/blank#}computer with his money but he also wants to go skating with his friends. He can't do both {#blank#}4{#/blank#}he doesn't have enough money. What should Justin do?

    We are often in these kinds of situations. You want to see a concert {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Saturday, but it is also your mother's birthday and you do not want to let {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(she) down. In this case, you don't have enough time to go to both {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(place). You must make a decision. You must think about {#blank#}8{#/blank#}should be done first. You must consider the following questions {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(serious).

    Which is more important?

    Which decision needs my attention more?

    Which choice would satisfy me more?

    After you've answered these questions, it may be much {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(easy) for you to decide what to do. So the next time you must make a decision, remember to prioritize(优先考虑).

    My school has clear and strict school rules, including for dress code(着装要求)and punishment( 惩罚)for{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) late.

    As for dress code, we must wear school{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (uniform). We can wear brown, black, gray pants and shoes. Our shoes must be made of leather or canvas(帆布). Our pants must be made of canvas, too. We are not allowed to wear sneakers and boots in the classroom.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} P.E. class, we must change into our exercise uniforms and sneakers.

    The break time{#blank#}4{#/blank#} classes is only four minutes. We need to arrive at the classroom for our next class{#blank#}5{#/blank#} time. During the break, the hallway is crowded. Every student{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (walk) in a hurry. There isn't even time for us{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (go) to the restroom.

    I put all the books in my schoolbag two minutes before class is over. Most other students in the classroom do this, {#blank#}8{#/blank#}.The sound of zippers(拉链) can even be louder than the teacher's voice.

    {#blank#}9{#/blank#} we are late, we must have a good reason or a permission(允许) slip from the teacher of the last class. Or we will get lower scores. If we are late five times in{#blank#}10{#/blank#} term, we will be called truants(逃学者). This may result in a detention(课后留校).
