Last weekend we celebrated Jacob turning nine{#blank#}1{#/blank#}his friends with an art party. Instead of hosting it at our house, we{#blank#}2{#/blank#}（decide ）to try something new to celebrate it. It cost US $50,00 to rent a small restaurant. I worked with a store manager. And I bought{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(balloon) and a few other things from him.

    On the day of the party, the tables in the restaurant{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(cover) and waiters and waitresses were ready to get to work when we arrived. We started with helping the children paint their own canvases(油画){#blank#}5{#/blank#}then create their own T-shirts. I should have advised parents {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(take)some old clothes,{#blank#}7{#/blank#} (unlucky)we did not. When one child got paint all over{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(him), I felt bad about that.

    Overall, Jacob had{#blank#}9{#/blank#}wonderful time. We were able to do the art parity for minimal cost. The smile on his face at the end of the day was all{#blank#}10{#/blank#}mattered to me.

A: Hi, Lily! How about {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(go) to see a film together?

B: What time?

A: This Saturday evening.

B: I'm afraid I {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(can) go with you. So you'd better go there {#blank#}3{#/blank#}yourself.

A: Why? I {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(buy) two tickets already. This film is said to be very {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(interest). I had a lot of trouble in getting these two tickets.

B: I'm really sorry but I had made an{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (appoint) already. I'm going to see my former professor Lee at university this Saturday afternoon.

A: But can't you find some other time to see{#blank#}7{#/blank#}?

B: No, I can't. He is now {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (serious) ill in hospital.

A: Your teacher will be very happy {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (see) you.

B: I'm sure he will. He used to be very kind to us students {#blank#}10{#/blank#}we were at university. How about next Saturday? I will be free the whole day.

A: OK, let's make it next Saturday.

    One day, I saw a kid walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked as if he was carrying all of his books. I had quite a weekend {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (plan), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw {#blank#}2{#/blank#} bunch of kids running towards him. They ran at him, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (knock) all his books out of his arms and he landed in the dirt. His {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (glass) went flying. He looked up and I saw the terrible {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (sad) in his eyes. My heart went out to him. So, I jogged over to him as he crawled around looking for his things. Later, we talked all the way home, and I carried some of his books. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. “Thankfully, I {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (save). My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable.” Not until that moment did I realize its {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (deep). Never underestimate the power of your actions. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} a small gesture, you can change a person's life. For {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (good) or for worse, God puts us all in each other's lives to impact one another in some way. As you can see, friends are angels {#blank#}10{#/blank#} lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

    Raron Weaver was born on April 14^th, 1998 with only his left eye. It was very likely that this disability would come with brain damage. The chances are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} he would have brain damage, yet he didn't. He went through 25 operations and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (receive)a false eye.

    When he was in the 4^th grade he dreamed of {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(become)a writer and he carried that dream with him throughout his life. However, he faced a great many {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(difficulty).

    From his first day of preschool to his last day of high school, he was looked at{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(strange)by others. People would call him names like "cyclops(独眼龙)" and would tell him that he was {#blank#}6{#/blank#} mistake. Along with this, suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder(强迫症)made it difficult for him{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(do)normal activities.

    In 2016 he graduated from high school with the support of a loving family {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the help of teachers and friends. He began to write a book and a year later he completed his book. In late2017 The Human Apocalypse{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (publish) and it is now being sold through several {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(difference) ways.
