   Two weeks{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (以前),after Jean came back from a yard sale,she {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (进入)her store room.She was surprised to find that she had bought so many things.Jean counted them and made a{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (清单).“Oh,dear!I can't believe it.There are seven bicycles, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (九)armchairs,and fifteen cameras...And they haven't been used even once.”She checked the numbers {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (再一次).It made her mad.“How silly I am!”she thought.“I can not longer go to yard sales{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (除非)I hold my own one to sell these things out.But will anyone buy them?”

    I went to the doctor's yesterday {#blank#}1{#/blank#} I had a bad cold. I have {#blank#}2{#/blank#} for three days, so I had a sore throat. When I got there,m there were many people {#blank#}3{#/blank#}  inline. I had to join the line at the end. But the man who was in front of me was{#blank#}4{#/blank#}  there. The smoke made me sick. I wanted to stop him but I was afraid he would get{#blank#}5{#/blank#} . But I really couldn't stand it. So I told him {#blank#}6{#/blank#} , “Would you mind smoking outside?” After hearing what I said, the man threw the{#blank#}7{#/blank#}  on the ground and said to me, “Sorry.”I thought it was bad to do so, but I said {#blank#}8{#/blank#} and picked up the cigarette. Seeing what I was doing, the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}  face turned red and felt very sorry about {#blank#}10{#/blank#} he did. He turned to me and said, “You are a good girl. I won't do that again.”

When the children grow up , they will be able to do {#blank#}8{#/blank#} and they won't even find a{#blank#}9{#/blank#}.

    Have you heard{#blank#}1{#/blank#} this short story? It's about a deer (梅花鹿) who lived in the forest. He had large and beautiful antlers (鹿角). The antlers protected him from being hurt by other animals, so he was always {#blank#}2{#/blank#} because of them.

    One day, the deer went to a river to drink water. The water was{#blank#}3{#/blank#} clear that it was like a mirror (镜子). When the deer looked at himself in the water, he smiled. "I look like{#blank#}4{#/blank#} king," he said, "And this forest is my country." Then he noticed something else." My legs are thin and my feet are small," he said. "They look so weak. I hate{#blank#}5{#/blank#}."

    While the deer was thinking this, he felt something strange. A hungry tiger was {#blank#}6{#/blank#}behind a tall tree near the river. As{#blank#}7{#/blank#} as the deer saw the tiger, he ran away quickly. The tiger ran after him and tried to catch him.

    {#blank#}8{#/blank#}to his thin legs, the deer reached the trees first. But his large antlers got stuck in (卡住) some small sticks of the trees. He couldn't move at all and then the tiger came and caught him.

    The deer cried out, "I love my antlers, but they made me{#blank#}9{#/blank#} into trouble. Though I hated my legs and feet, they helped me run faster and jumped over stones. I was so{#blank#}10{#/blank#}! In fact, they are all important to me!"
