Tang Ling often smoked cigarettes(香烟) in his school's washing room. He {#blank#}1{#/blank#} smoking at the age of 14. One day he learnt that the NBA star Yao Ming, an ambassador(大使) to the Chinese Association on Tobacco Control (中国控烟协会), asked people not to smoke. Yao Ming was Tang's favorite star, and his words meant a lot to him. He decided to give up {#blank#}2{#/blank#} .
According to the Chinese Association on Tobacco Control, about 350 million Chinese smoke. Among them, 50 million are teenagers. Sun Jiangping of Beijing University said, “ Teenagers can get cigarettes {#blank#}3{#/blank#} , especially when their parents smoke or shops sell cigarettes to them. It's very important for parents to help their children {#blank#}4{#/blank#} smoking.”
A 15-year-old boy {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Li Kun from Beijing said his parents didn't smoke. Because they {#blank#}6{#/blank#} smoking could make people feel {#blank#}7{#/blank#} ill, they only {#blank#}8{#/blank#} him to play with friends without smoking. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} in such a good family helped Li say no to cigarettes. Some of his smoking classmates once told Li that smoking made boys look cool, but Li disagreed. He said, “Smoking is {#blank#}10{#/blank#} and it's not cool at all. Please stop smoking now!”

Last night I had a wonderful dream. I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} that I turned into a good swimmer.
In my dream, the weather {#blank#}2{#/blank#} fine and I came to a nice beach. There were few people on the beach and I {#blank#}3{#/blank#} to swim in the sea. While I was swimming, some {#blank#}4{#/blank#} fish followed me all the time. When I stopped, they came to swam {#blank#}5{#/blank#} me. Then, one of the fish began to talk with me. It {#blank#}6{#/blank#} Chinese, too! We had a wonderful conversation. Soon we became good {#blank#}7{#/blank#} and it invited me to visit the place where they lived.
{#blank#}8{#/blank#} I heard a voice, “Weiwei, it's time to get up! Breakfast is ready!” It was Mom's voice. Just then I woke up from my sweet dream {#blank#}9{#/blank#} had to face the real world again.
My dream was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} like a cartoon film, wasn't it?

    One day before my final exam, my dad gave me a gift. It completely changed my life.

    On that day I had a {#blank#}1{#/blank#} with my friends and it was a difficult time with my studies. I was unhappy. Then I noticed the gift. I {#blank#}2{#/blank#} it and saw a DVD inside. Its name was “THE SECRET”. However, I was in no mood (心情) to watch it. I sat down to study, but the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} in my life—the fight, the sleepless nights and my poor health … Everything came to my mind. I wanted an answer but I wondered {#blank#}4{#/blank#} there was any. Just then, I saw the DVD again. Maybe it would be helpful. I {#blank#}5{#/blank#} my DVD player. I had no words to describe the feelings I experienced while watching it. The moving stories of human beings made me so moved that I wouldn't {#blank#}6{#/blank#}any of them.

    Thanks to my father's gift “THE SECRET”, I discovered {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. Everybody has difficulties in their lives. The important thing is that you should be {#blank#}8{#/blank#} enough to face them. Now I have started {#blank#}9{#/blank#}my studies and my friends. And I'm in good health, too. I often hear people say, “Wow! {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a perfect life you have!”
