According to a recent survey, violence does exist in schools. Students show their fear and parents and teachers also {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (express) their great concern about it. Experts hope {#blank#}2{#/blank#} whole society will pay more attention to the mental health of adolescents.

    Nowadays, school violence is a big issue. I think this is a phenomenon (现象), which {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (call) for our great concern. We should try every effort {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (prevent) school violence happening, for more and more students would drop out of school if their personal {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (safe) could not be guaranteed (保证). In fact, violence can be learned. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (actual), children learn violent behavior from adults or from {#blank#}7{#/blank#} they see on television or the Internet.

    If I meet with school violence, I will not answer violence with violence, for it will result in {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (much) fights. I will tell my teachers or parents about it. I think they will help me deal with it well and protect me {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the bad guys.

    All in all, we students should behave {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (we) and keep away from violence.

    Today I went to a conference, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} two students had a debate about the strengths and weaknesses of the Internet.

    The first speaker talked about the positive{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(affect) of the Internet on our lives. The first is its value for people who {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(look) for information now. For example, with the touch of a button or the click of a mouse, a student will find enough information at his or her command. The second is our ability {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (relate) to others through the Internet and it is especially important for disabled people {#blank#}5{#/blank#} can't leave their homes. The {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (two) speaker talked about the negative effects of the Internet {#blank#}7{#/blank#}our lives. For example, some experts think that the outcome of spending too much time on the Internet is difficulty in {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(form) social bonds. They were also quite explicit(明确的) about how heavy Internet users spend {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(much) time with their Internet friends than their real-life friends from school and work.

    Both sides presented lots of statistics to support their arguments. My own judgment is that though the Internet is beneficial, we should use our {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(intelligent) and not be a slave to it!

    The man who is going to fix our roof must be {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(honest) person my husband and I have ever met.

    My husband knew the back roof of the porch was fine and wanted {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(see) what this roofer would say when he gave his estimate. He told my husband that the back roof was just fine and then gave the estimate for the rest of the roof:$2,400.

    He called last night to tell us he could do the roof on Monday but {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(tell) us he had measured the roof {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(correct) by forgetting to add on the front part of the roof.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} instead of giving us a new estimate, he told us he {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(go) to do the roof for what he quoted us.

    My husband asked him what the correct estimate would {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(be).He said,"$3,000."Well, that's what I had thought it would be so that's {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I set aside. My husband was simply {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(amaze) at this roofer.

    The roofer doesn't know our decision that he'll get the $3,000.He's honest and is planning to be responsible for the mistake. My boss was kind to me when I made some {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(mistake) in the past and now I get a chance to pass this on to others.
