There are a lot of famous women of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (achieve) in the world. They all do {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (good) in their work, such as Lin Qiaozhi, Jane Goodall and Song Qingling. There is no doubt that they are real heroines and worth {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (praise). But in my opinion, all healthy humans have the ability to do that. It just depends on {#blank#}4{#/blank#} you have the determination to do it and whether the situation is in your favor. But never before have I {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (admire) a person so much as Helen Keller, who I just read about. She was a(n) {#blank#}6{#/blank#}  (luck) girl who could neither hear {#blank#}7{#/blank#} see. I just can't imagine how she could be so successful. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I really don't believe is that a deaf-blind lady could become a world-famous writer. She must have met great difficulties and she must have made great efforts! If I were {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (she), I wouldn't have the courage to live on. It is {#blank#}10{#/blank#} her courage, imagination and intelligence that I was struck.

    Is there such a thing as being “over-protective”?

    I can honestly say that my answer{#blank#}1{#/blank#}that question has changed dramatically（戏剧性地）since I became a parent.

    Before the birth of my daughter,I taught at a private school,often{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(view) my students as over-protected, worrying{#blank#}3{#/blank#}would happen to them when they went on to middle schools.

    Some did fine,and some did not.Some needed constant pats on the back,words of encouragement and extra support,which I{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(happy) gave.Others{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(satisfy) with themselves,needing little or no interaction（互动）with their teacher.{#blank#}6{#/blank#}for the most part,graduates would go on for higher schooling.

    I'd always taken it for granted{#blank#}7{#/blank#}their parents were over-protective,for they were the ones that still walked their{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(five) graders into the classroom and met them at the school gate.

    Admittedly,I laughed at those parents,thinking their children would never learn to be{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(dependent) if they didn't let go just a little.Then I had my own daughter. The moment I looked at her little face,I knew I'd do everything in my power{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(protect) her and make sure she always felt safe!

    The importance of punctuality (守时) in our daily lives{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(be) obvious. It affects both the individual (个 人) and the workplace.

    On {#blank#}2{#/blank#} whole, the workplace operates more smoothly when employees are punctual. For example, when everyone is on time for a meeting, the meeting will start smoothly as it{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (schedule). Punctuality may help you achieve advancement. Research shows that managers are less{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (like) to promote late employees.

    Lack of punctuality affects the people in the workplace. It may lead to anger, as colleagues who are on time compare{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (they) with late-comers. Being late throws you out of the group, as you may miss important{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(inform). This causes a harmful division among employees. Leaders affect the entire workplace. When leaders are late, it sends an irresponsible message to employees{#blank#}7{#/blank#} may decrease their work enthusiasm. Lateness leads to stress, and stress brings{#blank#}8{#/blank#} poor workplace performance. Being consistently late may cause you {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(start) believing your lateness is acceptable. When this happens, you begin to blame outside circumstances and lose focus on potential solutions. To make matters{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (bad), constant lateness can eventually make you lose your job.
