Resi and I walked to school together every morning. We linked up with some of the other village children. It was 1945 in Germany, and this was a1thing because of the war.

    Sometimes Resi and I took a shortcut, a little path 2a meadow(草地). One day, we saw a young stranger, chopping wood in the side yard of a house. We walked away quickly, 3 who he was.

    The next morning, there he was. He didn't seem to notice us,4we were only a few feet away. Again we stared, then ran away.

    Resi said that he was one of a small group of Americans being captured(俘虏) by the German army .We weren't afraid, just5. He looked nice.

    One morning some days later, the American 6from his woodpile. He smiled and said, "Hi."

    We didn't know any English. So, as usual, we ran away.

From then on, 7 we passed by, we would find the American working in the yard, almost as if he was 8 us. Every day, he waved and repeated his "Hi." We waved back and said "Hi" 9.

    After another week, another 10 English word "Bye-bye". We laughed and parroted it back: "Bye-bye."

    Later, the man came closer to the fence, and said, "Frankie."

    Resi and I became quite 11with our "Hi, Frankie; byebye, Frankie" morning routine.

    Sometimes he would be singing. "You are my sunshine ..." he sang over and over,12, until we could sing the whole song.

    One morning, Resi and I arrived, but there was no Frankie. We looked 13. No Frankie. We never saw him again.

    Years later, at a picnic with our American relatives, 14 started singing, "You are my sunshine…" Of course I remembered the words, and I 15joined in. I told them about Frankie. And to this day, whenever I hear the song, I remember Frankie and the wonderful legacy he left us: our first English lesson and many happy memories.

Today, I was sitting on a bench(长椅) at a subway station, eating candies. A woman came and sat next to me. She looked very 1. I said hello to her and2 her some of my candies. She3 politely because she had just eaten something and she was4. But the ice was broken and we5 for about half an hour. She told me some6 things in her life. I understood her. But I tried to7 her to notice the good sides. And then she promised that she would often smile and feel hopeful about8. When we said goodbye, she was a 9 person—Her tiredness seemed to be gone. She left with a10, thanking me for talking with her.

    A few minutes later, I saw a blind man coming. He walked11 with a stick in his right hand. I went to him and asked if I could help him and he agreed. 12 I walked on his left side so that he could catch my arm. We walked into the train and talked all the way to his13. He gave me his name card before getting off the train, and I promised to14 him. I will and maybe we will meet and walk in the park one day.

Today I brought smiles and an enjoyable15 to two people, and for sure they also made my day brighter.

What is your favorite cartoon? It may be difficult for you to decide. But for Lang Lang, Tom and Jery is the best one. When he was two years old, he saw Tom playing the piano. This was bis first time to enjoy western music and this experience encouraged him to learn to play the piano. His talent in the keyboard（琴键）bas taken him from his hometown to the world.

Lang Lang became a good piano student at the age of three. Ever since the boy has been doing better and better. In 1977, the 15-year-old boy studied at a famous American music college. The road to success has never been easy. Lang Lang's father stopped bis job and went to America to look after him, while bis mother stayed in his bometown to make money. His parents really provided so much support for him. Lang Lang considered himself lucky and believed he should give something back. 

Lang Lang's performances are energetic（充满活力的）. He is well-known for making facial expressions（面部表情）and moving around while playing the piano. Finally, Lang Lang made great achievements in music. When he was 26 years old, he was qualified（有资格的）to perform on the world stage. After he became more famous and richer, Lang Lang helped the children in poor areas a lot

Jim and his family arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 7:00 p. m. They took a maglev train(磁悬浮列车) to their hotel on Longyang Road. The 30 km train ride only took 8 minutes. They were surprised at how fast the train was. After they got to their hotel, they had dinner and went to bed. They would spend three days traveling around Shanghai.

On the first day, they went to Yu Garden. Yu Garden has a history of over 400 years. They visited the wonderful world of old buildings, ponds and bridges. It was really amazing(令人惊叹的). They then bought some interesting things and ate lots of nice food at Yuyuan Market.

On the morning of the second day, they went to Shanghai Ocean Aquarium. It is very big. They saw a lot of sea animals there. In the afternoon, they went to Shanghai Tower. It is so tall that Jim was a little afraid.

On the third day, they visited Shanghai Disney Resort. It opened on June 16, 2016. It's the sixth Disneyland in the world. They took rides, watched shows and took lots of nice photos there. At the end of their trip, they were tired but happy.

I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the1 then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at 2 .

I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact,I think I 3 very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see— the 4 and magical places that I had never been to.

 The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism(乐观),5 the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost— having to study in three schools as a result of 6 moves. I 7 knew what I should be. Mother 8 , and I had got a stepfather(继父), so things became even more difficult for me. I was often in 9 , and saw no end to"the hard times".

 My responsibilities(责任心) in the family 10 a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with immigration(移民) officers, took my grandparents to the doctor, and even 11 telephone bills with the telephone company.

 From my 12 I have learned one important rule: almost all troubles finally13 ! Something good is certain to happen 14 the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that 15 .
