    Once an old man who had four lazy sons fell sick and was counting his last days in bed. He was very worried about his sons' future because they always believed in luck {#blank#}1{#/blank#}of hard work.

    The old man decided to play a trick{#blank#}2{#/blank#} he died to make his sons realize the importance of work. He told them that he would leave them a treasure box {#blank#}3{#/blank#} gold coins and wanted them to share the treasure.

    The young men asked where his father had placed the treasure. The old man replied," I can't exactly remember{#blank#}4{#/blank#}place. However, the treasure is buried in our land."

    After a few days, the old man died. The sons decided to{#blank#}5{#/blank#}the land to find the treasure box. They worked very hard, but they couldn't find the box. They dug even{#blank#}6{#/blank#}, but they still got nothing.

    Later, one of their neighbors {#blank#}7{#/blank#} by and saw the loose (松的) soil. He suggested that the sons should turn it into a farm. Soon, good fruit and vegetables grew out of the land. The four sons sold them at a good{#blank#}8{#/blank#} and made lots of money.

Do you know how to throw rubbish away properly (正确地)? Take a look at the rubbish bins outside your house. They come into different colors. It is not for fun- those colors tell you how to sort(分类) the rubbish. 

Not all rubbish is the same. Usually, people should sort their rubbish into four groups: recyclable(可回收的) waste, kitchen waste, harmful waste and other waste. Sorting rubbish can help us in many ways. We can try our best to reuse some rubbish, such as paper, glass and old clothes to make new things. 

There are many different ways to sort and take care of the rubbish in the world. For example, in Japan, there are strict rules for dumping (倾倒) rubbish. One has to put the right rubbish in the right place at the right time. 

Do you know where your rubbish goes after you throw it away? Most rubbish goes to landfill(填埋). Recycled rubbish goes to recycling centers. These centers use the rubbish to make new things. Finally some rubbish goes to"waste- to- energy" factories. These factories collect the rubbish and tum it into energy. 

Zhuhai No. 4 Middle School is in Guangdong, China. It now has 258 students from Tibet(西藏). The students leave their parents in Tibet and come to study in Zhuhai. The school is about 3, 000 km away from their home. It's really hard for them to live a different school life. 

Luckily, Chen Geng makes the school another home for these students. Mr Chen is a teacher of Xizang classes at the middle school. He cares a lot about his students. Because of the long journey(旅程), the students only go back to Xizang during the summer holidays. At other times, they just stay at school when other students can go home. To make his students feel better, Chen often spends time with the children, even at Spring Festival. 

Chen usually gets to school at 6:30 in the morning. He does morning exercises with the students first. Breakfast begins at 7, and the reading lesson starts at 7:15. He also goes to the students' dormitories(宿舍) after school to see how everything is going. Every month, Chen takes the students to visit museums or other places in Zhuhai in their free time. 

DrolmaYangzom is one of Chen's students. She says, "Mr Chen is a very nice teacher. He knows well about our habits and hobbies. We all like him. "

Jim had no patience and often changed jobs. His parents were worried and they took Jim to Frank, a wise（明智的）man in their village． After listening to Jim＇s1 ，Frank asked Jim to take a walk with him. 

"What's your favorite2 ?"Frank asked. "Strawberries, " Jim said. 

Frank gave Jim some seeds and said, "Plant them in the garden. " After doing this, Jim got 3 so they went back. 

An hour later, Frank said, "Jim, go outside and see if strawberries have come out!"

"But. . . how can strawberries come out so4 ?"asked Jim. "OK, then5 . Go and see later. "said Frank. 

After a while, Frank asked Jim to go outside again to see if strawberries had come out. 

Later, Jim returned and said, " Nothing6 !"

Hours later, Frank said. "Jim, this time strawberries must have come out. " Jim returned with the same7 , "The plant hasn't come out!" "Let's change the seeds this time, " said Frank. 

Jim was8 and said, " After planting a seed, you have to9 it and wait for a long time to get fruit! Don't you know that?"

Frank smiled, " This is what I want to tell you. "

Jim realized his problem. He started a new job with10 and hard work. In the end, he became a successful man.
