Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at Stanford Hospital, I got to know a little girl {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion（输血）{#blank#}2{#/blank#} her 5-year-old brother, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to fight the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (ill).

    The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for a moment before{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (take) a deep breath and saying, “Yes, I'll do it {#blank#}6{#/blank#} it can save Liz.”

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (see) the color returning to her cheeks, he smiled. Then {#blank#}9{#/blank#} face grew pale and his smile disappeared. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right now?”

    Being young, the boy had{#blank#}10{#/blank#}  (understand) the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood.

    Earthquakes are a kind of natural disaster. They usually come {#blank#}1{#/blank#} warning. An earthquake is dangerous,{#blank#}2{#/blank#} there are still things you can do to protect {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Slay calm as the earth begins to shake. Your chances of {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (survive) in an earthquake go up if you can keep calm.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (stay) calm is not easy, but it can save your life.

    If you are inside when the earthquake starts, get under {#blank#}6{#/blank#} table or a bed. You need to have something {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (strength) around you to protect you from {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (fall) objects. Do not stand near walls or windows and stay out of the kitchen. The kitchen is dangerous because of many glass objects.

Remember to always hope for the best but prepare for the worst.

    A best friend is someone {#blank#}1{#/blank#} you can tell everything to, even your most personal {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (feel) and thoughts. Anne Frank treated her diary {#blank#}3{#/blank#} her best friend. The German Nazis were in search of Anne and her family. The family had to hide away from the chase. They didn't dare to go out even in the evenings. They had to stay {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(indoor) day and night. Not {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(be) able to go out for such a long time, Anne missed the beauty of nature so much that she {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(grow) crazy about everything to do with {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. She stayed up until eleven thirty one evening on purpose just to see {#blank#}8{#/blank#} moonlight. She said, "This is the first time that I have seen the moonlight {#blank#}9{#/blank#} I came here."

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(fortune), the family were discovered at last and taken away from the hiding place.

    Today, our class went to “The Fishery”, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} is a local fish store, because we are learning about fish: where they live and how they are different from people. Inside the store it was very dark, except for the bright lights on top of each tank. The girl {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(work) in the store told me that the lights are neon, and they are used to show off the bright colours of each fish. Under the lights, the fish were blue, purple, yellow, and green. They {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(look) so beautiful that I wanted to take all of them home.

    As we all know, the Great Wall of China is one of the greatest {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (sight) in the world—the longest wall in the world ,which {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (consider) the symbol of China and the wisdom of Chinese people.

    With {#blank#}3{#/blank#} long history of more than 2300 years, the "Long Wall" was built in different areas by different dynasties {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (protect) their territorial (领土的) borders. During the construction of the Great Wall, there were many {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (interest) legends and stories, such as Meng Jiang Nü weeping over the Great Wall, a sad {#blank#}6{#/blank#} romantic love story.

    Today, the Great Wall has become a place {#blank#}7{#/blank#} interest not only to the Chinese but also to people all over the world. Perhaps the most {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (wide) famous advertising words in history come from the poetic pen of Chairman Mao: "He {#blank#}9{#/blank#} has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man," Actually, since the Great Wall was opened to the public, hundreds of millions of visitors {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (be) to its various sections.
