The {#blank#}1{#/blank#} tastes really good.

    Life is not easy, so I'd like to say," Whenever it is,{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(相信) in yourself."

    When I was a young boy, I was too shy to speak to anyone. My classmates often {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(嘲笑) at me. I was sad but could do {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(没什么事). Later, something {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(发生), and it changed my life. It was an English contest. My mother asked me to take part in it. What a terrible idea! It meant I had to speak before all the teachers and students of my school. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(然而), my mother insisted, "Come on, boy. You are sure to win." Then mother and I listed many different topics(话题) and talked about them {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(一起). At last I {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(决定)on the topic. I tried my best to remember all the speech and practiced it {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(百) of times. Also, my mother took me to her {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(外国的) friend for help. I could {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(几乎不) believe my ears when the news came that I had won the first prize. I heard the cheers from the teachers and students. My classmates all said "Congratulations!" to me. What a happy time!

    Mary is the presenter of her school radio station. She presents New Movies once a week for ten minutes, and {#blank#}1{#/blank#} （友谊）Helpline for fifteen minutes each time, once a week too. This time, she is talking to me on the Internet radio. I had a big fight with my friend. We have been friends {#blank#}2{#/blank#} （自从）I was 8 years old. I didn't know how to do it in the right way. At first I just kept in  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（安静；沉默）when I called. Mary was very {#blank#}4{#/blank#} （有耐心的）while listening. After two minutes passed, I started to describe what happened to me. Then she {#blank#}5{#/blank#} （解释）to me how to make us get together again. She told me friends in our life was a hidden {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（宝藏）which could affect our future. Thanks to her, I understood that. Who said sorry first was not important, but it is {#blank#}7{#/blank#} （有价值的）for me to try to make us be good friends again if we both still love each other. So far her suggestions {#blank#}8{#/blank#} （带来）me pleasure and we become close friends again. The {#blank#}9{#/blank#} （声音）of Mary's is so sweet, it seemed that she is speaking to me in person. The programme is so useful that lots of {#blank#}10{#/blank#} （听众）join in and then more people hear it by visiting the website.
