My good friend is Bill. He is twelve years old. He {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(be) born (出生) in New York in 2005. At the age of seven, he {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (start) to go to school. When he was eleven，he {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(leave) New York with his parents and moved to Washington D.C. At his new school, he {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (meet) me. He became my deskmate (同桌). Because some terrible things were going on, at that time I wasn't enjoying {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(I). I didn't want to say anything to {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (anyone). So of course, I didn't say hello to him. However, Bill said to me with a smile (微笑) on his face, "Hi, Dale! Do you need my help?" Bill's smile made me feel better. I didn't keep silent (沉默的) anymore.

    I {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (decide) to say something to him. After that Bill and I became good friends.

    Now Bill is still my deskmate. Every day he {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (take) the subway to school with me. Like me, he {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (study) and exercises hard. We are in good health. We always {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (get) good grades.

    Everyone sometimes loses things. People often lose things when they are {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(travel) or when they are in a hurry. That's why there {#blank#}2{#/blank#} lost and found offices at airports and {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(station). What can you do when you lose things? Let me {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(tell) you.

    In some big {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(city), there are some lost and found offices. Some clerks(职工) are working in the offices. When they get{#blank#}6{#/blank#} new thing, they always check it {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(careful). They want to find out who its owner(主人) is. They are happy{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(see) an ID card. There is always the owner's photo {#blank#}9{#/blank#}address on the ID card, so they can find the owner easily.

    When you lose things, first of all, you should think. If you can't do that, just take out {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(you) mobile phone and wait. Maybe you can get a call.

—Thanks so much.
