Nadia Comaneci, a famous gymnast(体操运动员), was born in Romania in 1961.

    When she was doing cartwheels (侧手翻) on the playground at the age of 7, a PE teacher saw her. He told her family that she was very good and advised Nadia to train in the capital of Romania. Although it was a long way from her home, Nadia went because she loved gymnastics(体操).

    After that, she trained hard and took part in lots of competitions. In 1975, she was named as one of the Athletes of the 20th Century.

    In 1976, Nadia went to the Olympics in Canada. She was so fantastic in the competition that everyone waited for the score, a high score. But the score board showed 1.00!

    Everyone was surprised. There wasn't a sound for a moment. Then a voice came. "Ladies and gentlemen, Nadia Comaneci…10!"

    The audience cheered very loudly. So what happened? Well, when the scoreboard was built, no one thought a score of 10.00 was possible. The decimal point(小数点) was in the wrong place! In fact, the scoreboard only had three digits (数位) to show scores, such as 9.50 or 9.85 at that time.

    In the 1976 Summer Olympics, Nadia Comaneci scored a perfect 10, which was thought impossible before. From then on, she was looked as a hero. In 1984, she got retired (退休的).

My wife and I were in the forest, with our children. We were taking pictures of some birds {#blank#}1{#/blank#} our daughter Lisa shouted suddenly, "Dad! A bear is right behind {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (we)!" Then I saw that small bear. It {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(move) quietly behind us at that time. 

The bear behaved abnormally (表现异常). It hit {#blank#}4{#/blank#} camera. The situation got very difficult. I {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (stand) there— between the bear and my family at that moment. All of us hardly had a chance of running {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (fast) than a bear. The bear opened its mouth. I had to raise my arms {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (protect) myself. I caught its neck. While I {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(get) ready to fight with it, it started to rain heavily. The bear moved back towards the forest. But before returning to the forest, it {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(bite) my arm. It was the first time I had felt afraid. I drove away quickly{#blank#}10{#/blank#} my family. What a terrible experience!

Jerry is an English boy. He is eleven {#blank#}1{#/blank#}old. He has a little sister, Tina. His mum, Mrs. Brown doesn't work. She looks after the{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. His father works in London. It is the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}of England. 

Jerry doesn't like going shopping, and he likes {#blank#}4{#/blank#}to music and playing games very much. One Sunday morning, Mrs. Brown asks, "Jerry, I am making {#blank#}5{#/blank#}for you and your sister. Now I need some sugar, potatoes and beef, but I haven't got any. Can you buy them for me?" There {#blank#}6{#/blank#}a supermarket near their house. {#blank#}7{#/blank#}Jerry is playing games, and he doesn't want to go out. Then Mrs. Brown says, "Jerry, you can buy them {#blank#}8{#/blank#}the computer. " So Jerry buys some food for their family and they enjoy a very {#blank#}9{#/blank#}meal. Now Jerry {#blank#}10{#/blank#}the computer is not only for playing games. 

 Before paper was invented, people wrote or drew on materials such as bamboo, silk, and animal skin. Writing materials were {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(real) expensive and few people learned to read. Therefore, few people wrote. This all changed, thanks {#blank#}2{#/blank#}a man named Cai Lun. 

 Paper had already appeared in China long before, but the process for {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(produce) it   was difficult and the paper was of low quality(质量). Cai Lun began experimenting with many different materials and different methods to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} those-materials into paper. In the year 105A. D, he {#blank#}5{#/blank#}0(make) it from tree, bamboo, cloth rags(碎布片), and fishing nets. His paper was {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(strong) and cheaper than any paper that had been made before. 

 With Cai Lun's papermaking method, Chinese culture grew more rapidly over the next several {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (century). That's because ideas were much easier to share {#blank#}8{#/blank#} more people who learned to read. The use of paper spread abroad, helping other cultures record and spread their ideas. Today, Cai Lun is {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (regard' as a national hero in China. But {#blank#}10{#/blank#} whole world should remember the clever Chinese papermaker forever. 

 Festivals mean more work for some people. Let me tell you {#blank#}1{#/blank#} story about a deliveryman(外卖员) . His name is Li Lei, even {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the National Day, when most of us are having fun, Li Lei is on duty. His job is to deliver packages (包裹) to {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(people) homes. The festival means he needs {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (do) more work. Everyday, Li Lei rides his bike from one place to another, no matter(不论) how hot or cold it is. He {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (spend) little time with his family during the festival, but he knows his work is important. Because of him, people get the things they need on time. His hard work makes our festivals even better.
