Bullying (欺凌) is doing things to hurt other people. It is a serious problem at school.

Miah—now a 22-year-old girl, still {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (remember) how she was bullied in junior high school. "They kicked me, put sticks in my hair and took money from me. Even worse, I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (make) to eat rubbish. I {#blank#}3{#/blank#}never {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (forget) those moments. "

     Miah is not the only case. I saw another bullying situation when I was a student. Some students bullied a handicapped (智力低下的)  girl every day —hitting, pushing, and kicking her. They just enjoyed {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (do) it. The girl didn't realize that people {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (hurt) her. She couldn't even tell the teacher. The situation lasted for a long time.

    Bullying at school is getting worse, so, many people {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (try) to start anti—bullying(反欺凌) programs. Students in many schools have already taken actions. They {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (create) anti—bullying clubs. Many students have joined the clubs. They work with teachers to show students how to stop bullying. Some other programs have proved to be successful, too.

    In Wales, two girls came up with an idea to stop bullying on the school bus. They created a bus pass (乘车证) and made four rules for students: no bullying, no swearing(骂脏话), no smoking and no shouting. Whenever a student broke a rule, he would get a mark on his pass. When a student had four marks, he wouldn't be allowed to take the bus anymore. The bus pass idea worked. It {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (stop) bullying on the bus.

In Michigan, some students tried to stop bullying with friendship. They made DVDs. They gave the DVDs to students in their school {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (teach) them how to be good friends. This idea worked, too. After that, there was less bullying at their school.

    School programs like these {#blank#}11{#/blank#} (help) bullies learn to behave properly and they can also help prevent school bullying. I think it will come to a stop if everyone does something.

    It was Mr. Hill's birthday. He was one hundred {#blank#}1{#/blank#}old and many people {#blank#}2{#/blank#}to his birthday party. A reporter came to the party and ask him a few {#blank#}3{#/blank#}."Many people want to know how you keep {#blank#}4{#/blank#}," the reporter said, "Could you {#blank#}5{#/blank#}us about  it " "That is because I{#blank#}6{#/blank#}get up at six in the morning," said Hill."And have three {#blank#}7{#/blank#} a day and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} drink alcohol(酒)" "Really? said the reporter, "my uncle also did the {#blank#}9{#/blank#},and he only lived to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} eighty. What do you think of that?" "He didn't keep it long enough,"  the old man answer.
