People all over the world like to eat in fast food restaurants. The food there is delicious and it comes q{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Also, it is not too expensive, and the restaurants are always c{#blank#}2{#/blank#}and bright. People can eat in or take their food away.

    Chinese families l{#blank#}3{#/blank#} eating in fast food restaurants, too. There are two kinds of fast food restaurants in China:  the western fast food restaurants and the Chinese o{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Western fast food restaurants sell hamburgers, French  fries, fried chicken, drinks and so on(等等)。Chinese fast food restaurants sell dumplings, noodles, spring rolls and other Chinese snacks.

    Gary and Gavin were twin brothers who worked in a store owned by their father. After the father had passed away, they took over the store. Everything went well until the day a twenty-dollar bill disappeared. Gary had left the bill on the cash register (收银台). But when he returned, the money was gone.

    Gary then asked his brother Gavin, "Did you see that twenty-dollar bill on the cash register?' Gavin said that he had not. But Gary did not let it go and kept asking. "Twenty-dollar bills can't walk away by themselves! Surely you must have seen it." "I said I didn't see it!" Gavin replied with anger.

   The quarrel divided the young men and they could no longer work together. Later, a wall was built in the center of the store. For twenty years, hostility (敌意) never ended.

    One day, a strange man came to the store. He walked in and asked Gary, "How long have you been here?" Gary replied that he'd been there all his life. "Then you are the person I'm looking for," the man said. "Twenty years ago, I was totally broke and hungry. I entered this store from the back door and saw a twenty-dollar bill on the cash register. And I took it. All these years I haven't been able to forget that. I had to come back and apologize for that.

    The stranger felt shocked when seeing tears well up in the eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him. "Would you please go next door and tell the same story to the man in the store?" Gary asked. Then something surprised the stranger even more--after hearing his story, the two middle-aged men hugged each other and cried together in the front of the wall of the store.

    After twenty years, the wall that separated them finally came down.

It's a warm Saturday morning. Julia, Mark and Tina are at Simon's house. They are not doing their homework. They are making1 for this afternoon. They2 get together and play sports on Saturday afternoon, but this time, they want to do something3 . They hope to help Mr. White.

Mr. White is an old man in the town. He is seventy years old and he4 alone. His two daughters are both in another town. They' re too busy to look after him. So the four children plan to5 him this afternoon. Julia is going to tell some interesting stories to cheer6 up. Tina, Mark and Simon are going to do some7 for him. It always takes Mr. White a long time to wash his clothes because he is old8 he isn't in good health.

Now, the four good friends are9 . They want to meet Mr. White. They are sure Mr. White will be10 to see them. Maybe it's a big surprise for him.

Hi, My name is John Walsh. I'm1 Alberta. Do you know where Albert a is?2 a beautiful place in Canada. I'm a Grade Seven student. There are about 20 students in my class. My3 are very nice. They are11 to 12 years old. We all like4 . And our favorite sport is basketball. We often 5 it after school. It helps to keep us healthy and it's6 . My classmates and I want to make some pen friends. 

We want to 7 about books, sports and things at school with you. You can write to us at777friends@gmail. com. In your8 , please tell us about you. How old are you?9 do you come from? What's your favorite thing to do? And you can also ask us 10 . We are happy to tell you things about us. We hope (希望) to get your e- mail soon!

Surprise plays an important role in our lives. Last term my classmates and I gave our teacher a big 1 . Our teacher had a bad 2 and coughed a lot. She could hardly speak a sentence. When we looked at her pale face, we 3 the warmth she always gave us. So we decided to do 4 for her. Since Christmas was coming at that time, we planned a surprise for her. I made a postcard and wrote, "I hope you get5 soon". 

During class break, there were some other things on her desk, like candies and cakes. They all came from my classmates. A note was also lying there saying, "Take care, our 6 teacher. " My classmates and I hid where our teacher couldn't7 us, waiting for her appearance. 

Finally, our teacher came. Seeing the presents on her desk, she smiled.8 we were not right by her side, we could feel her happiness. Tears ran down her face. And when she looked up again. In front of9 were three shining faces smiling back at her. "Thank you!" she whispered , holding our hands tightly. 

Every one of us10 needs help. And to me, the best thing to do is to surprise them and cheer them up. 

There are also some interesting school {#blank#}1{#/blank#} in October. On October 12th, we have a soccer game. I don't love basketball{#blank#}2{#/blank#} it's difficult for me. But I love soccer. I enjoy. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} soccer and watching soccer games. We have a book sale on October 20th. I have three old books and I want to sell{#blank#}4{#/blank#} . The art festival(节日) is fun. We have it on October 29th. My birthday is also on this day. October is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}a great month for me.
